Because nobody at their Ministry of Doublethink was clever enough to come up with "a man whose slow-burn, will they or won't they relationship with combustible material got cock blocked in the end".

The bomb plot charges were fabricated and he was tortured into making a confession. The trial in Yemen, not Britain, had been a "travesty of justice".

Speaking to BBC Politics Midlands this week, Butt said: "I've always maintained from day one, that these were false, fabricated charges that were put against me, I was tortured into signing a confession."

Sure, sure... 24/7/365 out of you for 12 years believing every lie you've ever heard, but who's always the first one here to believe every word out of and stand up for any murderous Muslim dog?

You're filth.

And everyone sees that now.

Your party is dead. Your agenda is dead. The world you thought you were living in is dead.

You have no purpose in life anymore, Karen.

It is the Yemenis accusing the British of “plotting.” That’s it. No bomb. No explosion. No witnesses. Nothing other than a “plot”. What evidence was there of a “plot”? “Confessions” were tortured out of the defendants. The British were convicted solely based on their “confessions,” but the prosecution wrote those confessions. And all the defendants were lumped together into one trial. By the way, that is not how a trial is run in countries not run under sharia (Islamic) law, but it is precisely how a Kangaroo court in a Muslim country that normally executes the defendants before trial, like Yemen, does things all the time. Yemen did not execute them, but only because they were British.

JD Vance’s visit to the Olympics in Milan

Seduced by the Louis XIV Treatment. What JD Vance and his entourage in Milan teach us about Epstein’s magnetism

The Daily Mail reports that Vance and his entourage arrived “on multiple aircraft carrying staff, security personnel, food supplies and vehicles” and that “His ground convoy, made up of dozens of Chevy Suburbans, struggled through Milan’s narrow streets.” Like many others who’ve been there, my first reaction was “He brought food to Milan?” (No grazie, dammi il risotto allo zafferano.)

Why he would bring such a massive presence to a city like Milan, snarling traffic on its ancient streets? His enormous fleet of SUVs caused so much congestion that US figure skater Alysa Liu almost missed her first event.

The answer is that JD Vance is being swaddled in a golden blanket of privilege and luxury. After all, perks like these are standard fare for Trump cabinet members. For example, in 2025 the DHS purchased two private jets for use by Kristi Noem, as she lives rent free in a waterfront home that is normally reserved for the Coast Guard Admiral. Kash Patel flew on an official FBI jet to see his girlfriend perform. And Trump received a little gift from the Qataris – a private jet that he intends to have retrofitted at government expense and then keep once he leaves office. Oh, and he’s larded the White House with gold and is trying to build a ballroom that rivals Versailles in scale, though not taste.

It’s extremely easy to become addicted to privilege and luxury. And Trump has surrounded himself with privilege addicts, knowing well that such people will be unwilling to sacrifice their perks for things as paltry as principles and basic decency.

Which brings me to the Epstein scandal.

Obviously the most important aspect of that scandal is the lurid elite corruption revealed by what we already know (and what is still being covered up?). The backlash against Me Too and cancel culture takes on new meaning now that we know that some leading figures in that backlash were having sex with underage girls. A larger number of people were probably receiving financial favors.

What was the secret of Epstein’s influence? I’m speculating here, but I believe that a lot of his reach came from his skill at seducing people by providing them with a sense of exclusivity and privilege. To be associated with Epstein meant receiving invitations to participate in fancy dinners or to stay at one of his many luxurious residences in all the best places, including his private island. If you were chums with Jeffrey Epstein, you felt that you were a member of a glittering set of insiders.

So what does all this say about politics and policy? It says to beware — beware in particular of a president whose lifestyle is saturated in dictator chic and who invites his officials to share. Because just as those in Epstein’s circle looked away when the “help” looked a little too young and nubile, Trump’s cabinet members look away when ICE is gunning down and terrorizing people in the streets.
