Loopy Liz Panned By Poem – Liz Truss Poetry
As Liz Truss continues to gain the support of further Tory members, her supporters make a fool of her in verse in penning poetry referencing her as ‘Bizzy Lizzy’ and ‘Thatcher Mach 3’

Supporters laud her as ‘Lioness Liz’ whilst unsurprisingly detractors unsurprisingly label her ‘Ludicrous Liz’ and ‘Loopy Liz,’ but now after the former published two poems about her, Liz Truss MP has become a bit of a laughing stock.

Written in a manner that would make even the ‘Queen of Doggerel’ Pam Ayres embarrassed by someone of unknown identity and a Londoner going by the name of Bill Sutton, the poetry (featured below unedited) is illustrative only that the MP for South West Norfolk’s fan club are incapable of grammar, spelling, sense and logic.

Peppered with hatred for the man they view to be the “back-stabber” (though they reference him as a “back stabbee” and “snake”) Rishi Sunak, the poems express also loathing for the “woke” and admiration for Margaret Thatcher (whose surname is put down as “Thartcher”). All criticism is then subsequently described as the “mock and snicker” of “lefties.”

With backing like this flocking to the cause of the likely next Prime Minister, God help once Great Britain. Could this Oxford educated PPE graduate, ex-Liberal Democrat, pro-abolitionist of the monarchy and ex-Remainer not find anyone intelligent to pen a verse about her?

Pictured top – In 2021, as International Trade Secretary, the now wannabe ‘Fat Controller’ visited Derbyshire train-makers Alstom Derby; she was mocked for “enjoying a day out at Thomas The Tank Engine World” in altered imagery.

The aforementioned verses truly are beyond cringeworthy. If this is the best kind of supporters the Conservative Party can muster, surely greats like Sir Winston Churchill would turn in their graves.

Bill Sutton thinks his favoured candidate “normal” and someone capable who is “all about being kind to each other and not mocking” (though his spelling of such leaves much to be desired).

The first ‘poem’ in full (unedited and peppered with errors):

Untitled and shared by someone on Facebook’s ‘Angry People in Local Newspapers,’ this shocker was mocked by over 1,000 group members.

Of it and its author, remarks included:
- “Jesus wept, the gin in that.”
- “I want to hear more about her army of Brians.”
- “Brian isn’t thrilled about matching her face.”
- “And they say right wing comedy is dead.”
- “These people actually vote.”
- “No irony they couldn’t spell brains right when talking about her.”
- “Daft bigoted melt.”
- “Back stabbee would mean he was the one stabbed in the back, NOT the one doing the stabbing.”
- “Clearly wrote this just before his medication was kicking in.”
- “Has anyone checked if this person is having a stroke?”
- “I’ve never written poetry whilst falling down some stairs before. Good effort.”
- “This has to be a Poe.”
- “Keats, Thomas, Amis; Step aside… We have found our Laureate.”
- “It’s like watching a descent into mental instability in real time.”
- “If this is satire, it’s genius. If it’s real, it’s frightening as f*ck.”
- “MRS THARTCHER and getting rid of THE WOKE. Possibly the best poem I have ever read.”

The second ‘poem’ in full (also unedited and peppered with errors):

Penned by a Londoner named Bill Sutton who commented: “So I have writ [sic] this about liz.please don’t mock my soelling [sic] like the leftys [sic] do.thank you.hope you all like it.”

Comments included: “I wish you had spell checked your poem before putting it up” and “about as good [at] spelling as Truss.” Mr Sutton responded: “Alright lefty” whilst someone named Sheila Williams added: “Bloody lefty grammar police.”

‘Liz’

Meanwhile other super fans of the Oxford born 47-year-old heir apparent to Boris Johnson have ludicrously been suggesting that a conspiracy is being organised by supporters of Rishi Sunak and the introduction of foreign members from India to boost his vote.

Worse still, this birdbrained flip-flopper – who has been married to an accountant named Hugh O’Leary since 2000 but who had an extra-marital affair with the then also married now ex-MP Mark Field – has acquired the backing of Ben Wallace MP. He has remarked: “She’s honest. She’s authentic. She’s experienced.”

Getting Johnny Depp’s Goat – Ridiculous Rabid Ranter Arwa Mahdawi

Rabid ranter, author and brand strategist Arwa Mahdawi’s enthusiasm for goats and dislike of Johnny Depp shows her as ridiculous suggests Matthew Steeples

“It’s time we stopped telling women to act like men and started telling men to lead like women” reads a banner on Strong Female Lead author and New York based brand strategist Arwa Mahdawi’s Twitter handle.

Bizarrely, next, in her description of herself on the aforementioned social media site – which also includes a Linktr.ee promoting her book that is said to contain “incest in Iceland, garbage trucks in Taiwan and cuckoo clocks in Texas” – Mahdawi bangs on about “goat jokes” but claims her book is “not about goats.” She doesn’t, however, say whether she’s ever had an encounter with the Capreolus Club or whether she’s ever joined them to “take a break from deer” to slay such ruminant mammals in the north of England or Scotland.

Now, this morning in an opinion piece for The Guardian, in spite of Johnny Depp clearly having been very much victorious in his American libel battle against Amber Heard, Mahdawi declared that “misogyny is more alluring to many people than facts” and suggested that a “lot of unpleasant new information about Depp” has recently been revealed.

Going further, in a clearly biased rant against the Pirates of the Caribbean star, the columnist added: “It’s important to note that’s as if he looked like a boy scout in the first place… Depp has a well-documented history of toxic behaviour.” She then added: “There was a very long line of people ready to dismiss his bad behaviour while jumping on any excuse to paint Heard in a negative light.”

Though Mahdawi contined: “Heard endured merciless mocking and walked away with her reputation in tatters, while Hollywood largely rallied around Depp,” I will again stand by my article of 4^th May and again repeat that “though Depp clearly has issues and is far from perfect,” it is, as his own lawyer Benjamin Chew pointed out, Heard who is the abuser in this story.

After all, as I remarked then of Heard: “Here indeed is a woman who supposedly chopped off part of her husband’s finger, stubbed out cigarettes in his face and relieved herself in their marital bed. Reportedly ‘jealous’ of her husband’s fame and prone to ‘experiencing increased agitation… anger and rage’ according to her own personal nurse Erin Falati, here also is a troubled bisexual drug user with a ‘familial history of substance abuse… anxiety, eating disorder[s], Attention Deficit Disorder, bipolar disorder, codependence issues and occasional insomnia.’”

Aside from the kind of bag of bilge written by her this morning about the deserved victor in the Depp v Heard case, Mahdawi has penned many other columns that have been equally ludicrous. In 2019, she wrote a piece about air conditioning titled: “Is your home constantly set a ‘sexist’ temperature? You’re not alone: A new study finds men tend to get their way in household temperature discussions while women must compromise.”

‘The Guardian’ columnist begs people to “plz buy my book” on her Twitter feed. She has 17,700 followers but whether each and every one of them has actually bought ‘Strong Female Lead’ is unknown. The clearly patronising book was “published in paperback [on] 26th May 2022.”

What this somewhat crackpot crazy author’s views are on goat slaying and the Capreolus Club are also unknown, but what is sure she does like to bang on about these ruminant mammals rather a lot. God only knows why.

It’s not just Johnny Depp that uspets the columnist, brand strategist and author. She also declared “Ivanka Trump’s new haircut should make us very afraid” in one of her especially strange features. Of the daughter of the 45th POTUS, Mahdawi ridiculously declared: “If her family cares about anything, it is image. Her political bob (pob) may be an attempt to get us to take her ambitions more seriously.” Off-the-scale nonsense, clearly.

In suggesting “violence is the only answer left” when attempting to “end racism,” surely this rambling ranter went too bloody far? Nobody rational would sanction attacks upon others surely and that this gibberish got published is beyond ridiculous.

Illustrating herself as nothing but a wack job, this woman – described online as a “gargantuan hypocrite and the stereotypical media hack whose sole objective is to peddle propaganda” – wrote about air conditioning in November 2019. In it, she argued that “the thermostat dictator is normally a man.” Whatever will she argue next? Will she blame Hitler for climate change or will she suggest that Cilla Black is responsible for a rise in divorce rates?

Moron of the Moment 2022 – ‘Angry Man’ Owen Jones

In attacking Waitrose customers, batshit bonkers rent-a-gob Owen Jones just yet again proves himself Britain’s ultimate irritating ‘angry man’

It’s common knowledge that rotten ratbag and raging rent-a-gob Owen Jones hates many things, but it emerged yesterday that he especially loathes Waitrose and its customers.

Aside from sharing his intense dislike for the shopping public, Jones took to Twitter to urge people to harass the Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer whenever and wherever they see him. In a tweet, the reprehensible little squirt declared:

“If you see Keir Starmer out and about, call him what he is – a conman and a liar – and film it. Enough of letting our politicians getting away with this grotesque level of dishonesty.”

Going further after effectively urging attacks upon a democratically elected politician in a rambling rant shared with his 1 million nutty followers on Twitter, but not with the millions of others he’s no doubt spent hours blocking, Jones later stormed:

“You Keir Starmer, are a liar, a conman and a joke. Keir Starmer is a professional political conman. I don’t use those words lightly.”

“In order to become the leader of the Labour Party, he made a series of solemn commitments; pledges, he called them – which were radical domestic policies and party unity.”

“Now, he didn’t just slightly break that mandate, or mostly break the mandate. He has brazenly, overtly delivered the exact opposite of what he said he would be as Labour leader.”

“Now, I know most of the media have let him get away with this because they’re view is lying your way into crushing the left and conning your way into crushing them, that’s good politics.”

“I know his army of supporters online. The most tedious, ridiculous Waitrose customers that you’ll ever come across. They think it’s all fine because they don’t believe in anything. They made their entire political identity Brexit and stopping Brexit for years and now support someone who advocates the hardest form of Brexit possible.”

“Stockholm syndrome does not cover it for these people. The fact is, that is the truth.”

“Keir Starmer is a conman. He is not someone anyone can trust. He is somebody who lies as a matter of course in order to secure power. “

“He’s not fit to be leader of the Labour party and he’s not fit to be Prime Minister of the country and I don’t care how much that annoys the most tedious people on the Internet because it’s the truth.”

This time, like or loathe Sir Keir Starmer, eternally ‘angry man’ Owen Jones has most definitely gone far too far. In an era when politicians including the late Sir David Amess MP and the late Jo Cox MP were stabbed to death, The Times’ Janice Turner rightly responded: “Has he lost his mind?” We’d counter: “He did that long ago” and we today urge this noxious nitwit to learn the art of silence; of course, however, he most definitely won’t.

Responding to the reprehensible suggestion, winner of the Orwell Prize for Journalism 2020 Janice Turner, a columnist and interviewer for ‘The Times,’ rightly told her 85,000 followers on Twitter: “Owen Jones is seriously encouraging his 1 million followers to harass a politician in the street, maybe outside his home, less than a year after David Amess was stabbed. Has he lost his mind?”

Another Twitter user, Caitlin Houlbrook, took up the mantle for shoppers and observed of the cat-loving, people-hating pillock: “Owen Jones labelling Starmer supporters as Waitrose shoppers. Can confirm, it’s Lidl or Aldi for me hun.”

Taking umbrage at the deserved criticism he received after being accused of being “quite jealous” of Sir Keir and rightly told he “never achieved anything in life,” the ‘Chavs’ author chirped: “Better to be a failed writer than a professional conman!” Miaow.

There’s lowbrow and tasteless, then there’s this particular specimen that will say or do anything to provoke and upset others. Frankly, ‘The Guardian’ can and could do a lot better than to employ a cretin who likes to sport T-shirts with captions like ‘Will Suck Dick For Socialism.’ They truly ought to fire this firebrand fanatic and do so pronto.

Aside from his tirade against Waitrose customers yesterday, the squeaky voiced nitwit told his Twitter followers: “The crew now running the Labour Party are just genuinely horrible people.”

The ‘Chavs’ author is incapable of engaging in rational debate. He blocks anyone who dares disagree with him and @M_Steeples and @SteepleTimes are delighted to be amongst the cancelled number. Next!

Illustrating his obsession with attacking Sir Keir Starmer, Jones shared a 12:10-minute video on YouTube in May this year. In it, he called the Labour leader “a dishonest man” and called out his “rampant dishonesty.” He then begged for donations via Patreon to “help us take on the right-wing media.”

Jones is regularly deservedly called out for attacking others. Has he ever got anything positive to say about anyone other than Jeremy Corbyn? It seems not.

Morse, Maxwell & Oxford – Ghislaine Maxwell’s Secretary Sues

Oxford born former secretary of Ghislaine Maxwell sues ‘Miami Herald’ journalist Julie K. Brown for defamation; actress Emmy Tayler, daughter of a retired Oxford professor, perhaps should have been in ‘Inspector Morse’ instead of getting involved with the mucky madam

Whenever Oxford is mentioned, one naturally thinks of the oldest university in the English-speaking world, its eponymous dictionary and Inspector Morse, amongst other things.

Whilst the latter conjures images of Detective Chief Inspector Endeavour Morse’s involvement with classical music and calamitous murders, the county town of Oxfordshire – which dates back to the Saxon period and has been the principal site for the production of Mini cars since 2000 – this 17 square mile city represented by Labour’s Anneliese Dodds MP’s connections with Ghislaine Maxwell were further revealed this week.

Aside from the now mucky madam growing up at Headington Hill Hall to the east of Oxford – sneeringly dubbed “Britain’s best council house” by her very own pension pot plundering father – croaked paedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s one-time lover and co-collaborator in sex trafficking not only went to Oxford High School with Dame Cressida Dick DBE, QPM there but also attended the very same college at the university there as the now former Commissioner of the Police of the Metropolis.

Though perhaps an entirely innocent connection, one is left asking why the Metropolitan Police subsequently never proceeded to proceed with their investigation into Maxwell allegedly running a brothel out of her Stanhope Gardens East, South Kensington, London in 1994. Curious that.

Now, on Tuesday, another of Maxwell’s Oxford connections, her former secretary, Emmy Tayler, announced via lawyers AXS Law Group, PLLC that she is to sue the Miami Herald journalist Julie K. Brown and the publisher of her 2021 book Perversion of Justice: The Jeffrey Epstein Story, HarperCollins Publishers LLC for “publishing false and defamatory statements.”

Seeking a sum of in excess of £62,700 ($75,000, €73,600 or درهم275,400), Ms Tayler – who describes herself on IMBD as Oxford born and the daughter of a “recently retired professor” from there – claims Brown to have caused her “to suffer shame, humiliation, mental anguish and hurt feelings.” She adds that the journalist’s statements have “severely impacted and affected [her] mental health” in a 7-page document filed at the United States District Court Southern District of Florida on Tuesday 19^th July 2022.

Going further, in the filing and denying Brown’s accusations that she aided in Epstein’s abuse, Tayler states that she was employed in London and then New York by Ghislaine Maxwell between 1997 and 2001. She specifically states that she did not work for Maxwell at the time of an incident Brown alleged her to be involved with Jane Doe 1 in Palm Beach, Florida in 2005 and demands the book be recalled.

Aside from having grown up in the same city as Ghislaine Maxwell, it is not known how the two actually met. Ms Tayler, who supposedly now lives in London according to her undated IMBD biography but potentially has lived somewhere else entirely since August 2020 if the New York Post is to be believed, “studied at Millfield School, where she was a Music Scholar. She pursued her passion for the violin, piano, singing, horseback riding, drama and karate. She attended The University of Westminster where she achieved a B/A Honors and a Degree in Commercial Music that was followed by the Central School of Speech and Drama, London. Shortly thereafter Emmy immigrated to New York, then to Los Angeles.”

Pictured top (left to right) – Former secretary and actress Emmy Tayler, incarcerated nonce Ghislaine Maxwell and late actor John Thaw as Detective Chief Inspector Endeavour Morse.

‘Miami Herald’ journalist and author Julie K. Brown, 61, has long had deep involvement in the Epstein-Maxwell story. She was included in ‘Time’ magazine’s ‘100 Most Influential People of 2020’ and saw her book ‘Perversion of Justice: The Jeffrey Epstein Story’ published in July 2021. Emmy Tayler claims statements made in the book falsely identify “her as a co-conspirator, aider and abettor, facilitator and/or assistant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse pyramid scheme” and argues that she lived in Los Angeles and not Palm Beach in 2005 – the year in which Brown references her as “[arranging] Epstein’s massage schedule.”

According to a tweet sent by @CultStateDotCom on 1st December 2021 and taken from flight records that have been disputed by some, Maxwell’s PA Emmy Tayler flew on Epstein’s planes 190 times whilst the since croaked paedophile’s PA Sarah Kellen took 350 flights. His former girlfriend, Eva Andersson Dubin, took ‘just’ 36 flights whilst the since croaked paedophile sex trafficker Jean-Luc Brunel is said to have taken 34 flights, Gleen Dubin 27 and President Bill Clinton an astonishing 26.

Both Ghislaine Maxwell and Dame Cressida Dick grew up and were educated in the ‘City of Dreaming Spires.’ Though Dame Cressida does not appear in the former’s address book, their connections during their formative years surely must have meant that their paths crossed – especially since the former Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis’ father was the senior tutor at the very college, Balliol, where both ladies studied.

Headington Hill Hall was the scene of many an event hosted by the Maxwell family during their 32 years of renting it from the local council. It was built in 1824 for the Morrell family, local brewers, and was visited by Oscar Wilde – “gaudily dressed as Prince Rupert” – for an “all-night fancy dress May Ball” on 1st May 1878. The building now has housed a law school since 1992.

Others who made connections with the wicked wastrel woman we believe to be the controller of the sex trafficking and blackmail operation in the city where she grew up and was educated were Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his journalist sister, Rachel Johnson. In November 2021, in ‘The Spectator,’ Ms Johnson remarked: “It’s hard not to feel a batsqueak of pity for Ghislaine Maxwell… As a fresher I wandered into Balliol JCR one day in search of its subsidised breakfast granola-and-Nescafé offering and found a shiny glamazon with naughty eyes holding court astride a table, a high-heeled boot resting on my brother Boris’s thigh. She gave me a pitying glance but I did manage to snag an invite to her party in Headington Hill Hall – even though I wasn’t in the same college as her and Boris. I have a memory of her father, Bob, coming out in a towelling robe and telling us all to go home. I’m sure fairweather friends would not reveal they went to a Ghislaine Maxwell party: as Barbara Amiel’s brilliant memoir ‘Friends and Enemies’ proves, you only know who your real chums are when you’re in the gutter.”

John Thaw as Detective Chief Inspector Morse – based on the novels of Colin Dexter – starred in 33 two-hour episodes produced between 1987 and 2000. Based primarily in the university city, the detective drama featured a theme and incidental music by Barrington Pheloung and was followed by spinoffs including ‘Lewis’ and ‘Endeavour.’ What the detective would have made of Ghislaine Maxwell – whom if he had been real, he’d surely likely have encountered – would have been most fascinating.

Revenge – Meghan Markle v Tom Bower 2022

Is Tom Bower’s latest tome ‘Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the war between the Windsors’ actually going to be that revealing? Will it actually pull any punches or is it just a rehash of old news?

Dubbed on the cover of Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the war between the Windsors as “Britain’s top investigative journalist,” Tom Bower is known for his punchy unauthorised autobiographies of the likes of rambunctious rotters including Mohamed Al-Fayed, Sir Richard Branson, Boris Johnson and Robert Maxwell.

Sued for libel unsuccessfully for Lord (Conrad) Black prior to his being sent down for fraud yet cooperative and seemingly very friendly with Bernie Ecclestone, “Witchfinder General of contemporary biographers” Bower’s book has – in extracts shared thus far by The Times – focused on information such as that the Queen supposedly did not want the Duchess of Sussex at her husband’s Prince Philip’s funeral and that both Prince Harry and his wife have been repeatedly “hysterical.”

Hardly new ‘news’ in the sense that these “bombshell stories” have previously been repeatedly discussed online previously, such information as that “Meghan Markle ‘threw a cup of tea in the air’ and was ‘abrasive’ during [a] royal tour” is now doing the round. Of this, without naming the victim of the char chucking, Bower opines:

“Meghan was allegedly abrasive towards her four female staff and even towards the local British diplomats.”

“According to one report, Meghan allegedly threw a cup of tea into the air. Her anger may have been partly fuelled by Harry.”

“Every night he trawled social media, searching for snide comments on the internet. Every morning he and Meghan turned on their phones to surf the Internet.”

Speaking of his book to Times Radio two days ago, Bower added:

“H&M have set themselves up as judge and jury of the RF. Everything they do is to provoke and undermine and to challenge. My book is not gossip and speculation because it is sourced. You can’t imagine how much I didn’t print. The sources are identified, nearly 1000 sources are listed.”

“I have worked really hard to make sure it everything is accurate. There is very little in this book which is gossip and where there is, it is headlined as gossip.”

“I think the reader will come away with a vision of Harry and Meghan which is very different to the one they are accustomed to so far.”

Today, as self-proclaimed “global humanitarian” Prince Harry is set to give another no doubt self-serving speech at the United Nations in New York to mark Nelson Mandela Day, his wife is said to be “dreading” publication of the book in three days. Coming after her attempt to stop her half-sister suing her for defamation was unsuccessful, one, however, is left wondering whether Bower’s really will turn the screw or whether it’ll be left to another biographer to finally expose the truth about ‘Meddling MeGain’ and her drip of a husband’s ridiculous antics.

Tom Bower’s Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the war between the Windsors will be released on 21^st July 2022 in hardback form.

Is Tom Bower’s book about the woman formerly known as Meghan Markle (Duchess of Sussex) actually that revealing? A rip roaring romp of a read or a somewhat boring rehash of old news? #MeghanMarkle #MeghanMarkleisaLiar #Meghan #TomBower #DuchessofSussex #SussexRoyal #PrinceHarry
— Matthew Steeples (@M_Steeples) July 18, 2022

In a poll this morning, editor Matthew Steeples asked if the book will be “a rip roaring romp of a read or a somewhat boring rehash of old news?”

Times Radio turned to the subject as to whether the royal runaways are “self-destructive or successful?”

The Duchess of Sussex has been known to pull faces on occasions prior. She now may well find herself chucking more than teacups when she gets to read a book that is released on the 21st July 2022. One can imagine her temper may flare more given she won’t even be able to get her PR peddler Omid Scobie to help her spin this one.

Other subjects covered by Tom Bower previously have included the equally Marie Antoinette-like Barbara Amiel and her husband Conrad Black. Lord and Lady Black tried to stop the author. They, like ‘MeGain,’ failed.

Equally, Sir Richard Branson didn’t exactly come off brilliantly as a result of being featured in a book by Bower.

Ghislaine Maxwell – Master Manipulator

Apple podcast featuring Matthew Steeples being interviewed by the Irish ‘Sunday World’s’ Nicola Tallant on her ‘Crime World’ channel about whether Ghislaine Maxwell was an innocent servant or a master manipulator goes live

Earlier this week, after first meeting at CrimeCon UK in London in June 2022, The Steeple Times’ Matthew Steeples was invited onto the award-winning investigative journalist Nicola Tallant’s ‘Crime World’ podcast to discuss whether Ghislaine Maxwell should be considered as “Jeffrey Epstein’s innocent servant” or the reverse, his “master manipulator.”

In a 37-minute interview with Tallant – who has been deservedly lauded for her investigations into Irish crimes for the Sunday World and Irish Daily Mirror – Steeples told of “his own views on Maxwell and how he believes she was the one who wore the trousers in the relationship with Epstein. We talk hidden cameras, a secret address book and a money trail right into the heart of their twisted world.”

Commenting afterwards, Steeples remarked: “Nicola is clearly a lady with an ability to get to the heart of a story and I enjoyed chatting with her about how Ghislaine Maxwell was, in my humble opinion, actually the master in the relationship. She was, I would say, the controller and connector and Jeffrey Epstein was her money funnel.”

“She was certainly a woman abused by her own father, but that doesn’t mean she should have gone on to abuse others and help others abuse others. As many comment on Twitter, she has been convicted of sex trafficking women but nobody has joined her yet who received those victims in being prosecuted. It is time that justice was served on her powerful associates – powerful associates who featured in the address book that was hers and hers long before she met the very man she now vilifies.”

Pictured top – Convicted sex offender and mucky madam Ghislaine Maxwell, renowned journalist Nicola Tallant and Matthew Steeples.

Nicola Tallant has produced over 125 episodes of her ‘Crime World’ podcast series in conjunction with producer Ian Maleney.

On the show, which is the 126th edition of Tallant’s ‘Crime World’ series, Matthew Steeples discusses the power play between the croaked taxi driver turned conman turned paedophile Jeffrey Epstein and the incarcerated mucky madam sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell. He suggests the common belief that the former was in charge to be a misplaced conception and that the latter was the especially wicked power mistress. It was, after all, the contacts in her address book to whom their victims were supplied.

Prior to moving to New York – supposedly penniless – after the death of her pension pot plundering father, ‘The Bouncing Czech’s’ favourite child considered him the most important man in her life. Once settled there, quite likely with the help of the Ponzi scheming paedophile Epstein, she turned him into a money funnel to draw out the £500 million stolen from the Mirror’s retired workers.

The house manual of Epstein’s Palm Beach residence clearly was written with the input of the clearly socially more adept Ghislaine Maxwell than the rougher Jeffrey Epstein. It is of the style of someone who grew up with privileges rather than someone from the wrong side of the tracks, but it also indicates how very controlling the former truly can be in her demands.

Here is an arrogant and entitled woman who used to have access to it all – be it power, parties, privileges, royalty, mansions, islands and yachts. She has now quite deservedly exchanged this for 20 years in a prison cell and also faces further legal suits and eternal shame and disgrace.

Earlier this month – just after her former home at 116 East 65th Street, New York was sold for £13.3 million ($16 million, €15.7 million or درهم58.8 million) by real estate investor Frederick Rudd and his wife Kim Greenberg on 20th May – it was revealed that the convicted mucky madam sex offender faces further woes relating to that property after an art dealer, Sheldon Barr (pictured), has filed a lawsuit against her claiming he suffered “life changing injuries” outside the property caused by her lack of maintenance in 2015. Maxwell sold the 7,000 square foot Lenox Hill townhouse for £12.5 million ($15 million, €14.7 million or درهم55.1 million) in 2015.

When Maxwell gave a speech about the oceans to TedX in Charlottesville, she was accompanied by the caption: “The ocean, the biggest threat.” It turns out that instead she was the biggest threat to young people and a liar and deceiver.

Bankrupt BJ – Shame On PM For Taking PJs

It is an outrage that BJ enjoyer Boris Johnson flew from Cornwall to London in a government private jet after a holiday with his family at a time when there are now more food banks than McDonald’s outlets in bankrupt Britain

Blithering buffoon Boris Johnson – whose initials now seem rather apt given his liking for Bill Clinton-Monica Lewinsky style sexual antics with his latest baby mama in his Downing Street offices – has again disgraced himself by using a government private jet to fly home from a weekend with his puppet mistress and sprogs in Cornwall.

At a time when there are outrageously now more food banks than McDonald’s outlets in Britain and consumers’ energy bills are rocketing through the roof, that a publicly funded public servant is prepared to waste public resources in such a decadent manner when he could quite easily have taken the train is just beyond the pale.

Called out quite rightly by The Guardian’s deputy political editor Rowena Mason as “staggering hypocrisy,” Johnson’s use of ‘PJs’ was slammed further by the Sunday Mirror’s Whitehall correspondent Mikey Smith. Of this using government aircraft for “a seaside jaunt” with his family, Smith reported that Labour MP Emily Thornberry (AKA Lady Nugee), for once, rightly added:

“While the rest of Britain is struggling to pay the bills, Boris Johnson keeps living the high life at public expense.”

“Once again, he’s been caught treating the government’s official plane as his personal taxi service, regardless of what it costs the environment or the taxpayer.”

“It’s the act of a man drunk on power, who needs to be told he’s had enough.”

Clearly, just like the coffin dodger apologist for Vladimir Putin, Bernie Ecclestone, here we have a leader of once-great Britain who has been on the Kool Aid. It is now finally time for the off his not-so-merry rocker worst Prime Minister of Britain to finally do the decent thing. It is time for this conman, crook and condescending creep to just get on a PJ for yet another BJ with his hideous wife and disappear off into the sunset Jeffrey Epstein style. It is time for Britain to rid itself of both Boris Johnson and the ‘beergate’ bore Sir Keir Starmer also.

Pictured top – The worst Prime Minister in British history with his deviant and clearly deranged £800 a roll wallpaper loving deviant and clearly deranged wife.

Carrie Johnson – then Carrie Symonds – previously worked for the ‘charity’ Oceana. It had close links to the now quite rightly incarcerated sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell. Though both the Prime Minister’s puppet mistress and the mucky madam nonce like the oceans, their links to private jets and gin palaces are as murky as their personally profiteering personas.

Previously, in January, Foreign Secretary Liz Truss was slammed after “splashing at least £500,000 of taxpayers’ money on a private plane to Australia. She was accused of “exuding shocking privilege by riding an outrageous source of carbon emissions.” Her journey on the Airbus A321 – which would have cost just £7,700 for an equivalent business class ticket – was catalogued by a taxpayer-funded PR photographer.

Of plans for an equally overtly extravagant state funded new royal yacht in May last year, Dame Esther Rantzen rightly observed: “This is to me a crazy idea at a time when our economy has been obviously dealt something of a death blow by COVID, when we have no plans for social care, when food banks are thriving. Do we really think that the taxpayer, let alone the royal family, want £200 million spent on a royal yacht? I think it’s an example of a newspaper starting a campaign which is so out of touch. However, perhaps, I have the solution: Sir Philip Green, do you remember him? He has a knighthood – which some people have questioned. He lives in Monaco, where there’s plenty of other people with yachts. Why doesn’t he donate his boat to the royal family? If he’s got monograms with the words ‘Philip’ on it, that would be suitable for those who feel that the yacht should be named after Philip, Duke of Edinburgh… Prince Philip, you could just add a few, a few, you know…” Shame on the Prime Minister for even coming up with such a Marie Antoinette like idea.

Silencing By Maxwell – Sarah Ransome and Elizabeth Stein Should Be Heard

In trying to bring about the silencing of victims of abuse, Ghislaine Maxwell again shows her truly wicked ways are not behind her; victims Sarah Ransome and Elizabeth Stein should be heard

The mendacious, mouthy menace that is Ghislaine Maxwell likes her voice to be heard and she likes people to do as she demands. Known for having a house manual that told employees “remember that you see nothing, hear nothing, say nothing,” here is a wicked woman who is now trying to silence the voices of two of the victims of her and her co-collaborator and one-time lover, the croaked paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

Clearly not capable of “using judgment” sensibly in the very manner she once demanded of employees, this definitely deranged mucky madam is now trying to stop two alleged victims of both herself and the taxi driver turned teacher turned Ponzi schemer Epstein, Sarah Ransome and Elizabeth Stein, from speaking at her upcoming sentencing hearing.

In a letter submitted to Judge Alison J. Nathan on 14^th June and shared on the Court Listener page dedicated to documents from the case yesterday, Robert Y. Lewis of Marsh Law Firm PLLC requested that both ladies “be given an opportunity to speak” and called out Scott Borgerson’s estranged wife as a “lieutenant” of Epstein.

Responding, Bobbi C. Sternheim, counsel for Maxwell, argued “sentencing procedure should not be an open forum for anyone to come forward who was not identified as a victim of the charged offenses [sic]” and demanded “advance notice of the individuals who will be permitted to speak.”

Clearly incapable still of accepting she has done wrong, here is a woman whose 77-page previous submission mentioned the word “victim” only four times and in doing so made herself out to be that herself. This rightly convicted criminal brings further shame on the House of Maxwell in the process and today we join all those urging Judge Nathan to chuck the book at sentencing on 28^th June 2022.

“See nothing, hear nothing, say nothing, except to answer a question directed at you” was the mantra Maxwell and Epstein expected those ‘working’ for them to live by. It is a great pity that that this wicked female abuser of fellow females hasn’t answered any questions directed about her that might help bring closure for the victims of her truly wicked crimes.

Ghislaine Maxwell and her parents, most especially her pension pot plundering father Robert, were well known for treating those they thought beneath them with utter contempt. Kindness, compassion and consideration was clearly not a trait that any of them possessed.

Here is an entitled, spoilt individual (pictured here with the tempestuous model Naomi Campbell, the off-his-merry-rocker ex-President Donald Trump and his likely trafficked wife Melania Trump) who is lacking in a moral compass and the ability to follow the rules of the law. This is a criminal woman who clearly still thinks the rules don’t apply to her and now, very deservedly, she’ll pay for that with a likely sentence of around 20 years.

It must be remembered that the ‘Bouncing Czech’s’ most definitely deviant daughter and her croaked ex-lover were not alone in facilitating the abuse of young women and girls. Aside from the also croaked paedophile Jean-Luc Brunel, there were clearly many others. Many rightly ask: “Why haven’t these evil people been questioned, charged and brought to justice yet?” It is time that other co-collaborators in these evil crimes were punished also.

Keeping her cohort and money funnel Jeffrey Epstein happy was a key element in the socialite turned mucky madam’s life. The victims this breast massaging scoundrel sourced, including Sarah Ransome and Elizabeth Stein, now deserve a chance for their voices – voices Ghislaine Maxwell has long attempted to silence – to be finally heard as this deviant gets sent away for a very, very, very long time.

Gunning For Ghislaine 2022 – Search for gun continues in Maxwell jail

Authorities confirm to ‘The Steeple Times’ that search for smuggled gun at jail housing Ghislaine Maxwell and R. Kelly continues as mucky madam continues to bang on about her life being at risk

Moaning menace Ghislaine Maxwell used to like shooting parties where she downed birds with Prince Andrew with a 12 bore. Instead now, this convicted sex offender has turned to banging on about how “her life has been threatened and death threats continue whilst she is incarcerated.”

After the New York Post reported on Monday that officers had been “scouring the troubled lockup” where she is housed for a smuggled gun, her supporters raged that it is “outrageous that she is left at risk of being murdered.” For her, shotgun fun has been replaced by supposed real danger from illegal weaponry.

Yesterday, The Steeple Times contacted representatives at the federal Bureau of Prisons about this development. They confirmed that the “search for a gun remains ongoing” at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. The prison – which houses not only the pension pot plunder’s deviant daughter but also the “fallen R&B superstar” R. Kelly – had been alerted to the armament having been “introduced” to the facility on 7^th June and yesterday shared: “It has yet to be found.”

In the 77-page document submitted this week to the United States District Court Southern District of New York by attorneys for mucky madam Maxwell as they try to get her a laughable 4-year sentence on 28^th June, they moaned about another “risk to her life”:

“Just recently, Ms. Maxwell was the target of a credible death threat from a fellow inmate. On information and belief, one of the female inmates in Ms. Maxwell’s housing unit told at least three other inmates that she had been offered money to murder Ms. Maxwell and that she planned to strangle her in her sleep. The inmate who made the threat has been moved to the SHU, presumably to protect Ms. Maxwell.”

“This incident reflects the brutal reality that there are numerous prison inmates who would not hesitate to kill Ms. Maxwell – whether for money, fame, or simple ‘street cred.’”

“Ms. Maxwell has effectively traded the stress of flashlight checks every 15 minutes in the middle of the night while in isolation for the equivalent stress of having to sleep with one eye open – for as long as she is housed with other inmates.”

“Ms. Maxwell will have live with this threat every day that she is housed in the MDC and every day that she is incarcerated in the prison where she is designated.

Pathetically trying to justify why she went on the run during the summer of 2020, the mucky madam’s attorneys again returned to the theme of her being “at risk of being killed” and stated:

“Ms. Maxwell was the target of numerous death threats and threats of violence and was being hunted by the press. One media outlet even offered a $10,000 bounty for information about her whereabouts.”

“Tragically, this experience was not new for Ms. Maxwell. Decades earlier, when Ms. Maxwell was just a child and her father was a Member of Parliament, U.K. authorities found a ‘hit list’ of potential kidnapping/assassination targets in a safehouse used by the Irish Republican Army. Ms. Maxwell’s name was first on the list.”

“This unnerving experience has haunted her, heightening her vigilance and concerns about the welfare and safety of her young stepchildren, who were being hounded by the media at school and at the beach; and her husband, who was besieged by media coverage and had lost his employment and professional relationships.”

“Ms. Maxwell was also worried for herself, having legitimate reason to fear for her own life… Ms. Maxwell’s presence in New Hampshire was driven solely by the need to protect herself and her family from threats of physical harm and from the unprecedented and escalating press and public vilification she had to endure since Epstein’s death.”

Whilst shooting parties necking sloe gin used to amongst her social pursuits, Ghislaine Maxwell will soon have to get used to threats against her as she sinks into life forever in the clink. This wicked woman chose to participate in sexual abuse and now as a convicted criminal, nobody in their right mind will feel sorry for her as she faces the grim perils of prison. Next!

Pictured top – Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein at a shooting party hosted by Prince Andrew at Balmoral in Aberdeenshire in 1999 (left) and R. Kelly posing with people pointing guns at him in a music video (right).

The Metropolitan Detention Center at 80 29th Street, Brooklyn, New York houses 1,712 prisoners. It is an administrative facility that aside from Ghislaine Maxwell (prisoner 02879-509) and R. Kelly (prisoner 09627-035) currently houses amongst others the former President of Honduras Juan Orlando Hernández Alvarado (prisoner 91441-054) and the 2022 New York City subway attacker Frank James (prisoner 83999-053).

Fellow convicted sex trafficker R. Kelly is in the facility alongside Jeffrey Epstein’s co-collaborator sex trafficker awaiting sentencing on 29th June 2022 for that and other crimes numbering racketeering, child sexual abuse, kidnapping and bribery. He was convicted in September 2021.

The days of living it up at shooting parties are numbered for the daughter of ‘The Bouncing Czech’ and her croaked paedophile lover.

Elsewhere, for once in her otherwise anything but sorry for her windbag existence, Amanda Platell was spot on in her analysis. This morning, in her weekly ‘Daily Mail’ comment column, the apologist for her own paedophile mate, Rolf Harris, remarked: “Lawyers for Ghislaine Maxwell argue she should be spared a 20-year jail sentence for procuring young girls for Jeffrey Epstein and be given just four years as she was emotionally abused by her father, the corrupt media tycoon Robert Maxwell. She’s 60, for heaven’s sake. Too old to blame Daddy!”

Markle V Markle 2022 – Samantha Markle Wants £61k+ From Sister

As it looks set to go to jury trial, the defamation case of Samantha Markle against her sibling the Duchess of Sussex in Markle v Markle looks set to make the ‘Wagatha Christie’ case look like a walk in the park

The public have spent the first part of this year lapping up the ‘Wagatha Christie’ and Johnny Depp v Amber Heard defamation cases, but if it goes to plan Samantha M. Markle v Meghan Markle could become the truly most addictive legal ‘must watch’ of 2022.

Pitching the prospect of the Queen’s grandson’s wife, the Duchess of Sussex, appearing against her very own half-sister in a Tampa, Florida courtroom as a drama most definitely doesn’t require anything other than gleeful gloating and if it does occur, it will, quite frankly, be the ultimate sh*tshow.

Like watching a car crash, the Twitterati will no doubt be addicted. They will love the fact that the “private citizen” plaintiff, Mrs Samantha Markle, wants “in excess of £61,000 ($75,000 €71,000 or درهم275,000) exclusive of interests, costs and attorney’s fees” from her estranged ‘private when it suits’ sibling and that Prince Harry’s wife is being called out for “fake quotes against her sister.” That the pugnacious PR peddler Omid Scobie’s Finding Freedom is also being slammed as full of “false information” will be a veritable bonus.

Of that trashy tittle-tattling tome, the elder sister declares in her latest amended complaint submitted earlier this month:

“The book was used by the Duchess to affirm the false narrative that she portrayed to the Royal Family, that she supposedly lived a rags to riches storybook life. A life that took her from a humble beginning like that of Cinderella, to the wife of a Prince, a Duchess. She did not hesitate to strike back at what she mistakenly believed to be actions of Mrs. Markle, her older sister, against her.”

“She needed to distance herself from Mrs. Markle and to blame any and all issues on her. In the book Finding Freedom, in which the Duchess provided the information through her communications secretary, there is an entire chapter 12, starting on Page 310 entitled A Problem Like Samantha which defamed Mrs. Markle and falsely describes her ‘ploys’ to gain notoriety and money from her relation to the Duchess.”

“It stated as fact: ‘The trouble began with Samantha Markle. Meghan’s romance with Harry had hardly been public a full 24 hours when her half-sister sensed an opportunity. Never mind that she hadn’t seen her estranged half-sister in more than a decade. Samantha – who had changed her name from Yvonne and died her hair a fresh shade of blond…’”

“The false and defamatory statements which follow not only caused harm to Mrs. Markle financially in her professional occupation as a mental health counselor, but also subjected her to incomprehensible amounts of public scrutiny causing her mental health and well-being to deteriorate.”

Going further, the plaintiff calls out other supposed lies and falsehoods and claims her health and reputation have suffered immensely. She adds that the Duchess of Sussex “instilled anger in her fan base against [her]” and that this “caused substantial, irreparable prejudice, injury and harm.” She suggests that she “receives hateful emails and messages on a regular basis, is subjected to ongoing negative media portrayals, news articles, nasty negative press, and her reputation has been so damaged that she has been unable to work as a mental health counselor.”

Aside from having had to “seek and obtain an ‘Injunction for Protection Against Stalking’ in Polk County, Florida against one of Defendant’s zealous fans,” here is a woman who claims to suffer “emotionally from the worldwide hatred, contempt, and ridicule that she is forced to endure” and now she’s quite rightly fighting back.

If the Duchess of Sussex and her decided drip of a husband had any sense, they’d now do one thing: They’d man-up and make amends with both their families and bring them into the fold. That, however, would be too sensible, so, of course, they bloody well won’t.

Pictured top – In times past, the ever so conveniently forgetful former actress was happy to pose for pictures with her the sister she is now at war with both in the courts and via the media.

The ever so conveniently forgetful former actress – a woman who clearly has trouble remembering how many times and when she actually got married – was happy to not only pose for pictures with her papa and to take his money to pay for her education also.

The ambitious and audacious wife of Prince Harry would, however, like pictures such as this – and others far worse – erased from the Internet.

The Duchess of Sussex truly morphed into the ‘Modern Day Mrs Simpson’ for her interview with her and Sarah, the Duchess of York’s crony Oprah Winfrey in March last year.

A truly dysfunctional family – Meghan, Tyler, Thomas Sr, Thomas Jnr and Samantha in times happier.

In choosing to be the chief tin banger for the ‘Sussex Squad,’ Scobie will go down in history only for one thing: Being on the wrong side of history. The public have seen through him and they’ve seen through the rotten royals who have done nothing but damage to the monarch, her first born son and Prince Harry’s elder sibling. Shame on him.

This is going to be a case that could will send shockwaves on both sides of the pond. It will be nothing but a sh*tshow between a woman clearly incapable of understanding the art of diplomacy and a half-sister she’s most definitely thrown under the bus. Whatever the outcome, that this has even reached this stage just proves that the Duchess of Sussex is nothing but a selfish sleazebag who is very, very, very badly advised.
