Aaand, In Other News...
Re: Aaand, In Other News...
I'm sure she will get some sort of payout as part of the agreement for whatever is agreed is fair 'damages'. Regardless, the woman was trafficked from location to location and raped multiple times by enormously powerful and wealthy people, whatever reason she had for agreeing to the settlement is entirely her prerogative.
Seriously, Acht, that's just an outrageous thing to say. Can you even begin to fathom how much emotional and psychological trauma someone who has been through her situation would feel? Given how Andrew quite clearly was willing to fight tooth and nail against the case, I don't blame her for deciding to call an end to things. She has already been subject to so much abuse just for speaking out about Epstein, a cursory glance online will give you a hint at how much more she's getting for trying to get a semblance of justice out of the situation with Andrew. This has been with her for around 20+ years now. Maybe the payout to charities was enough for her and she didn't want to constantly live with it in the public eye anymore. We'll never know.
Save your hatred for the monster here, not the victim. Andrew is the one who was arrogant and duplicitous enough to think he could lie his way out of the situation, and then when that failed he went to ground until he was forced back into the limelight and now he's just paid his way out after lawyering up and trying to find every loophole possible to get the case thrown out. And what has he lost really apart from his Royal rights? I bet he's still got enough assets to live comfortably after spending his entire life leeching off the collective wealth of the British people.

Global bank scandal anyone? The Vatican involved in €350m fraudulent investments maybe?

Right, health warning here, as am linking a Daily Fail URL and therefore recommend you don't click it. You don't need to either.

My thought is not "Oh, that's an interesting story" rather "Who the fuck came up with the comparitive"...
Half a giraffe? Which half? Why a giraffe?
"How big was it?"
"10 feet across"
"Bugger me, that's about half a giraffe!"

Hmm, the size of a bassoon and a harp end to end. That'd make more sense, surely?
