Reprehensible “driller killer” dentist Walter Palmer will forever be remembered for slaying ‘Cecil The Lion’; the sexual harasser of his own employees has now gone and done it again – this time the monster massacred an endangered ram
Last month, we featured the story of a female manufacturer of undercrackers emblazoned with Donald Trump’s name who takes ‘pleasure’ in slaying bears. Social media junkie and hideous horror Priscilla Magana unsurprisingly outraged with her antics, whilst previously, her twisted ‘bestie,’ the shover-of-sex-toys-up-the-bums-of-sheep Larysa Switlyk, repeatedly did the same after we named and shamed her on these pages.
Now, an even viler example of barbarity has unbelievably returned to public attention in the form of Eden Prairie, near Minneapolis based Dr Walter Palmer, proprietor of River Bluff Dental. You will likely recall him as the degenerate dentist responsible for luring ‘Cecil The Lion’ to his death with the corpse of an elephant he’d also massacred in July 2015 in Hawagne District, Zimbabwe.
“Enjoyer of all outdoor activities” Palmer – a cretin who ‘kills’ his ‘prey’ with a bow and arrow rather than a rifle and someone whom deservedly became internationally loathed after having not orchestrated a “clean kill” on Cecil (whom tragically had to then be shot with a bullet 12 hours later after suffering immeasurable pain) – featured in the Mirror this morning after being snapped with a sheep he’d shot. This pointless Porsche driving pillock’s face supposedly “turned to anger” when confronted by a representative of the paper outside a bar in Bloomington, Minnesota about his having killed an endangered argali ram – a “species in danger of extinction.”
Plainly as delusional and deranged now as he was five years ago, Dr Walter Palmer – whom was forced to attend a course in ethics after paying out £100,000 in a sexual harassment case in 2009 – travelled to Mongolia for his latest ‘escapade’ as “the ram was on his list of hunts he wanted complete” said an “insider.” His travel companion, Brent Sinclair, then took to Facebook after the trip and disgustingly celebrated what they had done. Without naming his feckless ‘friend,’ he casually commented:
“Another great adventure has come and gone, one to be put in the memory book for sure. Just back from Mongolia, and it’s almost like it was only a dream. We saw rams every day and climbed around the hills in the Altai region getting as close as 20 yards one day to sheep bigger than I could imagine.”
“Sheep hunting isn’t sheep hunting without a midday nap in the sun on a mountain side, but its [sic] hard to relax and count sheep when all you can see through the scope are horns on rams bedded 200 yards away that carry twice the mass I have ever seen on sheep here in North America.”
“I’ve felt my heart beat in my ears when an 8000 lb+ bull elephant looked down his trunk at us as we stood in the thorn brush a mere 31 yards from those tusks and all you had was a bow in your hand… You drew back those 95 limbs and I thought to myself theres [sic] now way it’s going to do the job of harvesting that massive bull, but you placed the arrow perfect and the rest is history. This may however be the one that will be at the top of the pinnacle and hard to beat.”
“The Altai Argali of Mongolia is the largest of the worlds wild sheep and humbling is the only word one can use when you walk up to a ram like this for the first time… Thanks Amigo for the adventure… Look forward to our next one.”
After outrage over Palmer’s actions in 2015 resulted in him quite deservedly receiving death threats, Cecil’s head and skin was given to police in Zimbabwe. In the wake of his latest antics, we wouldn’t be surprised if members of the public now demand that this twisted monster have his very own teeth pulled out; we couldn’t think of a better fate for the monster that is Dr Walter Palmer.

‘Cecil The Lion’ was pointlessly slayed by Dr Walter Palmer in 2015. Whilst the lion will forever be remembered fondly, the dentist will remain deservedly hated for having paid £32,000 to barbarically kill this much loved, majestic beast.
Dr Walter Palmer found his business targeted quite deservedly after he killed ‘Cecil The Lion’ and now he’ll hopefully find just the same after slaying an endangered ram. His firm’s address is River Bluff Dental, 10851 Rhode Island Avenue South, Bloomington, Minnesota, MN 55438 and his telephone number is +1 (952) 314 8668. He can be emailed at [email protected]
Dr Walter Palmer was deservedly condemned across the world in the wake of the 2015 slaying of ‘Cecil The Lion.’ Amongst those calling him out were the conservationist and zoologist Dr Andrew Loveridge of Oxford University – whom later wrote of the incident in his 2018 book ‘Lion Hearted.’
Matthew Steeples finds amusement in Twitter handles; a life in a sentence can be found on some of the best profiles
Last Friday, in anticipation of the drunken mess that would become ‘Super Saturday’ in premises of J. D. Wetherspoons across the land, I shared a Twitter video embed on the @SteepleTimes handle that did not surprise when it went viral.
The original tweet I shared came from one Keptin Quarantino and was accompanied by a description that read: “The pubs officially reopen tomorrow in England. We can class today as P***MASS EVE. I imagine many of you will relate to this video be it in Wetherspoons or somewhere else. Have fun, W**kspangles.” Whilst the 1:24-minute clip itself was indeed hilarious, what amused even more was to be found amongst the legion of replies and likes that came henceforth.
Aside from a witty comment suggesting that “a Remoaner pushed him” of the unfortunate male member of the drunken pair, I actually wholeheartedly enjoyed the Twitter handles of those that responded even more. The very best follow below.
Twitter might be a medium that attracts trolls, but unlike with the vain and the vacuous that pepper spray Instagram with their shameless selves ‘swerving’ for the camera, here is somewhere you’ll find some simple amusement: Take a look through peoples’ profiles and you’ll discover there’s more to an individual than just a life in a sentence.
A Life in a Sentence – SophiaS – @whatalovelypair – “As my dear old East End mum says: ‘She’s all fur coat and no knickers…’”A Life in a Sentence – Stephen Johnson – @SteJHindley – “Miserable sod that likes rugby. I drink too much and am lazy. Life coaching available.”A Life in a Sentence – Pat Hetic – @Mr_Pat_Hetic – “Too lazy to achieve my full potential so now working as a village idiot near Chesterfield.”A Life in a Sentence – Ceri Williams – @Cezzawilliams21 – “All my views are my own (and I have quite a few!)”A Life in a Sentence – Graham Greenwood – @graham669 – “Lover of classic cars and a life long nudist.”A Life in a Sentence – Dave Lee – @168dave – “Never been particularly politically motivated, but the shower of sh*t led by Bozo The F**king Clown have managed to change that!!”
Moving on homes owned by the newsworthy – including a country house apartment in a castle currently owned by Jasper Conran and the childhood homes of Al Capone and Jackie Kennedy
Soppy Savills Fail to Salivate
https://vimeo.com/227878828
Jasper Conran OBE paid just £2.75 million ($3.43 million, €3.04 million or درهم12.61 million) for New Wardour Castle in Tisbury, Wiltshire in August 2010. The catch? He didn’t get the whole James Paine and Giacomo Quarenghi designed Palladian mansion, but as the Daily Mail’sAlexis Parr reported at that time he “captured” 23,185 square foot of a repossessed building divided into a total of ten flats. ‘Apartment 1,’ as the space the designer son of Sir Terence Conran currently owns is known as, includes 8 reception rooms, 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
Agents Savills could have enthused gushingly about the Grade I listed building and its spectacular 60-foot central rotunda, but instead they are simply seeking £3.95 million ($4.93 million, €4.36 million or درهم18.12 million) for what they underwhelmingly market as the “largest [apartment] in Wiltshire.” Conran would have done better to have appointed someone more akin to the late Roy Brooks we’d say – at least he’d have showed some flowery enthusiasm for this capacious crib.
From Electric to Insta
‘The James Seymour Mansion,’ the £37,000 ($50,000, €45,000 or درهم184,000) Gothic revival mansion in New York State The Steeple Times featured in December 2019, has finally got itself new owners after 204 submissions from across the world to buy it.
Creatively marketed by Michael DeRosa on behalf of the local authority after a property tax foreclosure, the 10-bedroom house on a 0.9-acre plot is situated in Auburn, Cayuga County – a place best known for being the gruesome location of the world’s first legal execution using an electric chair in August 1890.
Whilst the process of the death of “vegetable peddler and known alcoholic” William Kemmler (whom murdered his common-law wife in March 1888) was regarded as a “historic bungle,” all worked out well James and Katie Joynt and their seven children. The family – whom currently manage an Amish co-op in Pennsylvania – will spend around £123,000 ($155,000, €136,000 or درهم565,000) restoring the house according to New York Upstate and are going to take the crumbling house into the 21st century whilst documenting their journey on Instagram.
Going Gangsta
Of a New York “multi-family townhouse” at 21 Garfield Place, North Slope in June 2017, the New York Post quipped: “A Brooklyn homeowner hopes a mob of buyers will take a shot at this town house.” That property was sold for £1.94 million ($2.42 million, €2.14 million or درهم8.89 million) in early 2018 to an Emmy award winning television producer named Steven Kalifowitz and is now again for sale, this time for £2.3 million ($2.9 million, €2.6 million or درهم10.7 million).
Agents Douglas Elliman neglect to mention that the 2,980 square foot building – which is “currently configured as an owner’s duplex with two spacious one bedroom apartments above” – was a childhood home of the gangster Al Capone (1899 – 1947) in the early 1900s. 21 Garfield Place previously sold for a “little more than £800,000 ($1 million, €885,000 or درهم3.7 million)” according to The New York Times in July 2006 and now looks anything but like a bootlegger’s workplace; there’s even a child’s playroom in the basement.
Anything But A Discount Holiday
Those looking to escape to the Hamptons post-lockdown could do worse than purchase the childhood summer home of the late Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis (1929 – 1994) – if they’ve got £6 million ($7.5 million, €6.6 million or درهم27.5 million) going spare.
Built in 1895, Wildmoor at East Hampton extends to 4,291 square foot and has 6 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms. It’s on the market through Paula S. Bulter of Sotheby’s International Realty and also noteworthy is that an art studio on the property was used for many years by the Abstract Expressionist artist Adolph Gottlieb (1903 – 1974).
Gottlieb purchased the shingled house on a 0.92-acre plot in 1960, but interested buyers should note that the current décor scheme is definitely a bit passé. As Kennedy herself once said: “It looks like it’s been furnished by discount stores.”
‘The Steeple Times’ reports on anything but a ‘Super Saturday’ at The Botanist on Sloane Square; we share here imagery and a video of a thieving woman whom must be caught
It was sadly anything but a ‘Super Saturday’ for one loyal reader of The Steeple Times yesterday after her designer handbag was stolen in plain sight at The Botanist on Sloane Square.
Captured on camera with security guards on the premises also, the brazen thief – a black woman with black hair with a white stripe accompanied by a white woman with black hair and a colourful coat – helped herself to what she was not entitled at around 3.45pm.
A video of the event, later shared on Twitter by Matthew Steeples of ‘The Steeple Times’ attracted comments including: “Absolute scum” and “Lock her up!” of the perpertrator.Another added: “Those braids are very distinctive.”
Disappointingly for the victim, aside from the theft of an item worth several thousand pounds, the attitude of the management of The Botanist was not especially sympathetic.
Lamenting how she was treated after the crime had been identified, the victim told The Steeple Times: “I didn’t expect much, but they had a security guard and he didn’t even notice what was going on. They may as well have a Pug guarding their door. One of them would have been far more effective than the short-sighted beefcake they had there yesterday!”
Do you know this woman? If so, please report her to the Metropolitan Police or send her name to us at [email protected] and we will be sure to pass it on.

Matthew Steeples questions why Alan Dershowitz is getting so enthusiastic in his defence of the vile paedo procurer Ghislaine Maxwell
Those of us that knew the late Claus von Bülow (1926 – 1929) and those that watched Reversal of Fortune – the superb film portrayal of his two trials in connection to his alleged attempted murder of his heiress wife Sunny in 1980 (she eventually died after having been in a coma for over 27 years in 2008) – will of course recall his association with the rookie lawyer Alan Dershowitz.
In that film, Dershowitz is portrayed as a man who fights for the underdog; he’s a hero (in spite of whom he is defending), in fact. Now, years after morphing into a fully-fledged member of the establishment, it seems, this civil libertarian has sadly moved to the ‘dark side.’
In an article for the Spectator USA, published on Thursday, titled: “The Ghislaine I Know,” Dershowitz enthusiastically droned on about how he and his wife were “introduced to Ghislaine Maxwell by Sir Evelyn and Lady Lynne de Rothschild.” He continued: “We subsequently met her… generally in the presence of prominent people such as Bill and Hillary Clinton, Nobel Prize-winning scientists, presidents of universities, and prominent academic and business people” (thus hinting that this made the paedophile procurer actually ‘respectable’).
Dershowitz – himself a man accused, but not convicted, of offences linked to Epstein and Maxwell – demanded ‘Bouncing Bob’s’ daughter be “like every other arrested person, she must be presumed innocent” (which is fair enough), but then proceeded to trash victims the monster Epstein had already been convicted of abusing.
Continuing with his “everyone should keep an open mind about Maxwell” angle, the lawyer illustrated himself to be utterly out of touch. As the financier Euan Rellie, described as “a British investment banker who knew Maxwell in both London and New York” in a Vanity Fair article about Thursday’s arrest, tweeted Friday: “This guy @AlanDersh is protesting way too much.”
Pictured top: Ghislaine Maxwell with Prince Andrew at Royal Ascot in 2000; Alan Dershowitz with Jeffrey Epstein at Harvard in 2004.
Another friend coming to the ‘Murky Mucky Madam Maxwell’s’ defence – Ghislaine Maxwell’s “friend” Christopher Mason told the ‘New York Post’ on Saturday: “Do I think she’s in danger. Yes. In a way, I can’t imagine her ever giving up Prince Andrew, but if it’s life imprisonment with no hope of parole, it might be tempting. She of all of those people knew who slept with whom and [which young girl] was assigned to whom.” Mr Mason – who has performed songs in honour of Donald Trump and Kim Kardashian’s arse – continued: “I’m sure she has access to the videos. A lot of powerful people will be more than a little worried. I hope [Maxwell won’t] end up like Epstein. I’m a little worried about that. I think she’s in danger. There is too much power involved if she really talks.”Fresh from being interviewed by ‘Vanity Fair’s’ Mark Seal about Ghislaine Maxwell on Thursday, Eton and Cambridge educated financier Euan Rellie took to Twitter on Friday in the wake of Alan Dershowitz’s ‘Spectator’ article. He quite correctly observed: “This guy @AlanDersh is protesting way too much.”A Rolodex like no other – Ghislaine Maxwell’s tentacles reached everywhere. This octopus like woman is pictured here at a dinner in Miami Beach, Florida hosted by the controversial New York real-estate tycoon Aby Rosen (centre) with the fashion designer Calvin Klein (left) amongst fellow guests.
Alan Dershowitz was played by Ron Silver in the 1990 American drama film ‘Reversal of Fortune’ with Jeremy Irons as Claus von Bülow and Glenn Close as Sunny von Bülow. The 111-minute film grossed £12.3 million at the box office and was lauded for its “exceptional performances” and “cunning script.”
As a poll reveals the public believe Ghislaine Maxwell will ‘suicide herself’ in a similar manner to her former master Jeffrey Epstein, the Cash & Rocket ‘charity’ unbelievably announce they are going ahead with another rally in 2021
Though one thing is for sure and that is that Ghislaine Maxwell will not be returning to her 156 acre “retreat” in Bradford, New Hampshire this weekend, a Twitter poll conducted by The Steeple Times’ Matthew Steeples has revealed that the public believe she’ll go the same way as Jeffrey Epstein.
In a question posed Thursday, a reasonable (though we’ll admit far from scientific) sample of 73 answers came in response to the question: “Will Robert Maxwell’s daughter and Jeffrey Epstein’s child procurer madam Ghislaine Maxwell last the week in custody?”
Response options and votes were as follows:
She’ll get COVID and die – 19.2%.
She’ll suicide herself – 34.2%.
She’ll be off to Israel – 20.5%.
She’ll be out on bail – 26%.
Whilst Mark Seal of Vanity Fair yesterday recounted what he had discovered about where ‘Bouncing Bob’s’ daughter had been for the last year, we again share with readers our picture of the last car that ‘Mucky Madam Maxwell’ was known to have driven when she was in London for her most recent visit to Prince Andrew and for the 2019 Cash & Rocket ‘charity’ rally.
Whilst Ghislaine Maxwell quite deservedly won’t be riding quite so nicely again anytime soon, it seems Cash & Rocket think they can move on regardless on and forget about their links to a facilitator of female abuse. Founder Julie Brangstrup recently announced that her organisation is unbelievably going ahead with another glitzy car tour in 2021.
53.4% of respondents to our Twitter poll do not believe Ghislaine Maxwell will be alive much longer.The house to where the paedo procurer will not return – Ghislaine Maxwell bought 338 East Washington Road, Bradford, New Hampshire, NH 03221 for £858,000 ($1.07 million) on 13th December 2019. It had been listed for £ million ($1.195 million) on 12th April that year and was marketed as a 4 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom, 4,365 square foot “custom designed timber frame house” with 156 acres by Coldwell Banker Homes. The agents bizarrely lauded the “fabulous barn for square dances and hoedowns,” but it is doubtful that ‘Mucky Madam Maxwell’ had chance to hold any of those during her tenure at the house quaintly known as ‘Tuckedaway.’
Totally Tuckedaway – A video of the house illustrates how secluded the estate truly is and this is plainly why Miss Maxwell chose it.Amongst those that partied with Ghislaine Maxwell during the last Cash & Rocket rally were Paris Hilton and ‘Queen of #JustSaying’ Caroline Stanbury. ‘The Steeple Times’ snapped the duo at a launch event for that ‘charity’ car tour at Bibendum on London’s Fulham Road on the evening of 6th June 2019.
A 1-minute “trailer” video about Cash & Rocket describes it as being about “women making change.” Founder Julie Brangstrup unsurprisingly decided not to include their 2019 participant and multiple women enslaver Ghislaine Maxwell in this marketing material.
As manipulated millennial Darren Grimes gets himself into yet another racism storm with the help of his beloved bigot Dr David Starkey, one has to ask: “Who is this cretin’s puppet master?”
“I wish I’d caught it at the time,” blubbed Darren Grimes after his failure to notice the bigot Dr David Starkey CBE spouting racist bile and shockingly complaining about their being “so many damn blacks” in Britain on his Reasoned UK channel.
Fresh from threatening esteemed writer Peter Jukes with legal action in May for utterly no good reason, ‘Dim Grim’ continued: “I am still learning the ropes, I will be much more alert to challenging this kind of thing in the future.” He then attempted to justify his failure with a throwaway: “I am very new to being the interviewer rather than the interviewee” line.
Turning to having stupidly lauded Starkey’s shocking remarks in the hours after uploading the sorry excuse for an interview, the awkward agitator and failed trainee hairdresser declared: “I’d appreciated his history programmes growing up, which did a lot for me as a kid in a really crap state school with precious little way of history.” Earlier, of the very same interview, Grimes had also commented: “It’s so good I’m watching it back again… They say never to meet your heroes, well, I virtually met one of mine and it was bloody fantastic… I love him.”
Known for banging on about “white privilege” and how he comes from a fatherless home and has a mother who bought a council house (as if such actually is relevant), lily-livered Grimes has previous. On May 25th, after Dominic Cummings was deservedly lambasted over his coronavirus lockdown rule breaking drive to Barnard Castle, the tinpot twerp tweeted: “This is actually breaking my heart. The media are monsters. Utter monsters.”
As the Cambridge educated freelance writer Mic Wright concluded of this “miniature Milo Yiannopolous” this morning: “Who is Darren Grimes? Not even he knows,” but more importantly one is left asking: “Who are the far-right manipulators pulling the purse strings that continue to enable this silly little boy?” It’s time we had some answers.
Since Darren Grimes has deleted the parts of his interview with Dr David Starkey that have been deservedly deemed offensive and racist, we share here a YouTube feature by Aaron Bastani with the bits ‘Dazzer’ wants erased from history. In response to criticism, cowardly Grimes tweeted: “The much more detailed and nuanced discussion on current events that I’d had, during a conversation that lasted over an hour, is not well reflected in that one, damning and distressing clip, that has been shared online – I regret missing that part and it has now been removed.”
“I fought them and won” – Manipulated millennial Darren Grimes just cannot help but make a prat of himself. At every turn, he trips himself up with delusional drivel fed to him by his puppet masters.
One Twitter user replaced Starkey with Hitler and showed Darren Grimes nodding along. Frankly, the clip sums up the whole shebang backing this noxious runt up perfectly.Prior to interviewing the racist Dr David Starkey, Darren Grimes announced: “I will have to resist the urge to tell him I love him.” Pass the sick bucket.Explaining he’d removed the racist “part” that he regretted “missing,” Grimes conveniently suggested his re-editing of history would get him out of the dung heap. Sadly, for him, it had already gone viral.Darren Grimes subsequently claimed: “I will be much more alert to challenging this kind of thing in the future.” Instead, it might better if his manipulators replaced him with someone with half a brain if they truly desire ‘Reasoned UK’ to be a success.In another tweet, Grimes stated: “I have been told I’m too thick, uneducated and Brexity to be supported.” He’s not far wrong there.Grimes has also suggested: “Many on Twitter are desperate to see me bugger off.” He’s wrong there as many actually view him like a car crash – so awful that people just (‘have to’) watch.Previously, Grimes put his heart on his sleeve for Dominic Cummings. He could, perhaps, have chosen a better individual to form a vehicle to help him along in his transparent desire to become popular. “I am, alas, only human and those seeking nothing short of my destruction can make it all feel like a lonely game” suggested Darren Grimes on 29th June. The poor lamb really does need to seek a safe space (or return to working in the food hall at Marks & Spencer).
Rolls-Royce owned by “maverick” Demon Internet dot-com millionaire Cliff Stanford to be auctioned; an au pair he employed was tragically murdered by a British serial sex offender in Spain; he was convicted of “email spying” in a scandal featuring gerrymanderer Dame Shirley Porter
Cliff Stanford is best-known for having established the early dot-com success story Demon Internet in 1992. He had a (boom, boom) “demon touch” and sold the company for £66 million in 1998.
After pocketing £30 million personally, one of Stanford’s first moves was to buy a private plane and “one of the most lavish Rolls-Royces then available.”
He paid the equivalent (with a discount) of £265,000 today for the opulent Rolls-Royce and declared it: “My favourite present to myself.”
The 1998 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur is now to be auctioned for less than a tenth of that price with a lower estimate of just £18,000.
Stanford’s Spanish au pair was tragically murdered in 1999 and subsequently in a totally unconnected series of events, he was convicted of “email spying” on notorious Conservative politician and gerrymanderer Dame Shirley Porter and her son.
According to his personal Twitter account, Stanford is now based in Tallinn, Estonia; he recently tweeted in support of Dominic Cummings, but neglected to mention if he would have loaned his motor for the spinner’s infamous Barnard Castle drive.
In 1998, “flamboyant” Internet pioneer Cliff Stanford paid the equivalent of £265,000 in today’s money for a brand-new motor. He did not opt for the eco-friendly kind-of-car that today’s tech titans drift around in, but instead slam dunked and went for the ultimate symbol of flash – a Rolls-Royce Silver Spur with every conceivable extra.
Stanford’s long wheel base ride – a vehicle that would have been the envy even of Charles Frere, the business tycoon bounder of Howards’ Way, in terms of its lavishness – personified excess and reflected the persona of a man whom “laughingly” considered getting the numbers ‘666’ incorporated into the dial-up for his Demon Internet company’s software.
The Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit and the longer wheelbase Silver Spur (and their Bentley equivalents) were the favoured mode of conveyance of business moguls in the 1980s and 1990s. Charles Frere (played by the late Tony Anholt, died 2002), a stereotypical example of such a character, was regularly seen in such motors in the BBC classic ‘Howards’ Way’ also.
Born in Southend-on-Sea, Essex, Clifford Stanford started his career as an accountant, but “found his way to the Internet via a love of computers.” He hit the jackpot with Demon Internet in 1992 and after selling that company to Scottish Telecom for £66 million, claimed his empire would be “bigger than Branson’s” according to the Guardian.
Speaking to the paper in December 2001, he continued: “I always wanted to be wealthy. Money doesn’t buy happiness but lack of it can lead to misery. Now I really enjoy my life, I do whatever I like and no-one tells me otherwise” and next he set up another venture, Redbus Investments, with Dame Shirley Porter’s son, John, as chairman. It listed on the stock exchange in March 2000 and the company’s activities included not only Internet hosting, but also a landmine disposal system and forays into football and popular music.
Redbus, according to ZDNet in Sept2005, was where “Stanford’s trouble seemed to start.” Kiss-and-tell scandals involving a “champagne fueled romp” at Claridge’s and his being banned from the hotel ensued, whilst in 1999 his Spanish au pair was murdered by a serial British sex offender named Tony King – who was only jailed in 2006 after a previous wrongly convicted suspect was cleared in 2002.
In 2001, the Guardian reported on the tycoon’s associations with Max Clifford – with a plainly hoodwinked Stanford remarking: “Max always has loads of really interesting people at his events” of the long since disgraced and now thankfully dead paedophile – and mentioned an unsuccessful investment of £1 million in a “badly managed” girl band called Girls@play. It had The Apprentice’s Alan Sugar’s niece as its lead singer, but ultimately was “a complete disaster really,” the businessman lamented.
By 2005, Redbus had unraveled spectacularly and in September that year, Sandford was convicted of intercepting emails belonging to his former friend John Porter. He tried to claim his actions were legal, but after being given a suspended sentence and ordered to pay a fine of £20,000 and £7,000 in prosecution costs, a later appeal was denied.
Divorced, a father of two and reinvented as an “innovation strategist” according to his LinkedIn.com page, Stanford is now is based in Tallinn, Estonia with his American-German science fiction writer partner Sylvia Spruck Wrigley. Aside from a website named May.be that lists their many projects, the tech expert is an enthusiastic chess player and user of Twitter.
As well as tweeting enthusiastically about a “clean break Brexit” and complaining about Amazon, Turkish Airlines and the Estonian take on fish and chips on the social media site, he recently came out in support of Dominic Cummings. Of Boris Johnson’s puppet master’s recent problems, Stanford surmised: “Witch hunt.”
Historics Classic and Sportscar Auctioneers will sell Cliff Stanford’s Rolls-Royce Silver Spur on the 18th July and have set an estimate of just £18,000 to £22,000. They describe the vehicle as “one of the highest specified cars we have seen and presents well in black with black leather seats, carpets and headlining,” but neglect to detail any of the high jinxes that this larger-than-life character no doubt conducted from its rear seating area.
Cliff Martin Stanford (born 1954) – The Names & Numbers
18th July 2020 – Cliff Stanford’s one-owner-from new 1998 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur – registration S110 NGN – to be auctioned by Historics Classic and Sportscar Auctioneers with an estimate of £18,000 to £22,000 ($22,200 to $27,100, €19,800 to €24,200 or درهم81,600 to درهم99,700) at their Windsorview Lakes sale.
June 2009 – Co-founded Power Ethernet. He describes this firm as bringing “disruptive technology to fruition.”
September 2005 – Convicted and given a suspended sentence of 6 months and a fine of £20,000 ($24,700, €22,000 or درهم90,600). A later hearing denied leave to appeal in February 2006.
2003 – Charged under the Computer Misuse Act and the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 with the interception of emails between Jonathan Porter, one-time chairman of Redbus Interhouse, and his disgraced mother, Dame Shirley Porter – a woman best known for the “homes for votes” scandal in Westminster.
March 2000 – Floated Redbus Interhouse on the stock market.
October 1999 – Stanford’s Dutch-Spanish au pair, Rocío Wanninkhof (1979 – 1999), is abducted and stabbed to death. He offered a £50,000 ($61,000, €54,000 or درهم224,000) reward immediately and then doubled the sum in September 2003 “to anyone who could provide information” according to The Independent. After the estranged female lover of Wanninkhof’s mother was wrongly convicted for the murder in 2001 and subsequently cleared, a British sex offender, Tony King, was jailed for the killing in 2006 for 19 years.
1998 – Cliff Stanford paid £150,000 ($185,000, €165,000 or درهم680,000) for a 1998 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur, the “last production chassis number for UK sale.” He supposedly secured a discount of £20,000 ($24,700, €22,000 or درهم90,600) on the list price from dealers Jack Barclay and added extras including “a wine cooler to rear armrest, centenary door panels, picnic tables with separate stowage compartment, TV monitor/video to rear compartment and electrically adjustable lumbar support.”
1998 – Founded Redbus Investments four days after the sale of Demon Internet.
1998 – Sold Demon Internet to Scottish Telecom for £66 million ($81 million, €73 million or درهم299 million) with 172,000 subscribers.

After standing up to a woman named Amber Lynn Gilles who berated him whilst doing his job, Starbucks barista Lenin Gutierrez is going to use the unexpected donation ‘tips’ he received to help others
Lenin Gutierrez was a just man doing his job. This aspiring dancer was working at a Starbucks coffee shop in San Diego, California as a barista simply in order to fund his dream. He was harming no one, but after he politely asked a ‘Karen’ (the new way of describing a “self-righteous white woman”) if she’d mind following the current state rules and wear a face mask, he was met with a tirade of abuse and subjected to an attempted ‘shaming’ on Facebook.
Unluckily for the aggressor, one Amber Lynn Gilles, her stunt backfired. Instead, she is now the one who has found herself subject to ridicule, whilst a fundraiser to ‘tip’ Gutierrez has raised an astonishing £60,000 ($75,000, €66,000 or درهم272,000) on GoFundMe.
In response, humble Gutierrez remarked:
“Everyone, I just want to say thank you for all the love and support and what everyone is doing, it is an honour to see all this happen. But I just want to remind everyone, to be kind to one another and to love each other.”
“She started cursing up a storm, she started calling people sheep and she left. And then after a few minutes, she came back and she asked for my name. I said it was Lenin and she took a photo of me and said: ‘I’m calling corporate’ and then she started cursing some more. She was cursing at everyone. And then this time, she left and this time, for good. And I thought that would be the end of it and I didn’t know it was going to come to this.”
“I wanted to become a dancer and help dancers. I wanted to help before the quarantine happened. I was a teacher for kids and I just want to be able to show dance to others and show them how much I love it and how much it affected me. If I can show that to someone else, that would be amazing. I would like it to help change their life, like it changed mine.”
“With this GoFundMe donation that everyone provided me with, I can make these dreams reality. I can fuel my passions even better now. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for it. It’s just amazing to see that I can actually make these dreams of pursuing more into dance a thing now. Thank you so much for it.”
Meanwhile, Gilles has continued to show herself to be a bigoted berk. On Monday (along with enough grammatical and spelling errors to sink a battleship), this ignoramus predictably took to Facebook to continue her tirade. On her wall, she wrote:
“I am not scarred or bothered by your ignorant fraud ass’s, not so sorry you losers got nothing better to do. thanks for the ratings. [Two fingers emoji] you all act like the terrorist organization you are.”
According to news reports, this “unlikeable” woman has gone further and is now demanding a portion of the money raised for her own rotten self. Lenin Gutierrez is too much of a gentleman to say it himself, but we very much hope Amber Lynn Gilles is royally told to ‘BOG OFF!’

Amber Lynn Gilles took to Facebook thinking she’d make a fool of Lenin Gutierrez. Instead, she just made an utter prat of herself.Even after the public turned on her for her vitriol against Lenin Gutierrez, she has been unable to stop. Ms Gilles would do best to simply now silence her stupid self.Lenin Gutierrez’s GoFundMe story is a positive one and he seemingly will use the money to do good for others; the case of the ‘Middle Class Heathrow Homeless’ couple Alan Lane and Katrina Smith GoFundMe fundraiser proved to be to the contrary after the pair were exposed as fakes by ‘The Steeple Times’ back in February 2015.
Victoria Baker Harber has sent Kenny Schachter a “cease and desist” letter in the wake of her on-off conman lover Inigo Philbrick being snared by the FBI
Asked by The Steeple Times on Friday evening on his Instagram TV channel about Miss Baker Harber having turned her social media channels ‘private’ and ‘off’ in some instances, very wealthy art collector and writer Schachter responded: “She’s sent me a letter about memes.”
Poor dear Vicky might do better to do something else: The simple, dear darling could go and pleasure herself with a colouring book; she might actually do less damage in that department.

In an episode of ‘Made In Chelsea,’ a ‘participant’ labelled Victoria Baker Harber “a prostitute.” She then went a bit mental (unsurprisingly).
