The UK was also ground zero for epstein's marks. Their ruling class are either pederasts or covering for them.

This seems like an appropriate way to deal with Andrew: stick him in an enclosure and let kids pelt him with rotten produce.

Oh it ruffiles my feathers when they blame the computer. It was funny and hardly important but, no, it wasn't a "computer error", you just had the website auto generat different tickets with the pattern of "Child "+ ticketName; it a human error.

"Child "+ ticketName; ticketName = "Epstiens' Island";

Again, this isn’t really British vernacular. Thanks, news written by interns/AI!

Which bit isn't British vernacular?

“child predators”. This story seems written for yank engagement (you can see there’s a lot in the comments here by all the “this administration”s).

We’d be aware of the US usage and maybe make a joke about it but it’s not some big “gotcha” moment.
