Sophie from Southwark, London – Endorsement of previous tour:
“The tour was both enjoyable and fascinating, with Matthew pointing out both well-known and not-so-well-known crimes. I’ve done a few walking tours here and there and this one was the best – Matthew really knows the history and the who’s who of the area. I highly recommend the tour for both information and general entertainment value.”

What was Martin Frizell thinking in allowing carbonara munching Sarah, Duchess of York to guest edit and co-host ‘This Morning’ and what was he thinking in pairing her up with the creepy Christian crooner and “fat shamer” Sir Cliff Richard?
Frizzell – whom was deservedly condemned by John Nicholson MP as “outrageously dismissive and flippant on camera about [the] immensely serious issue” of the Phillip Schofield scandal back in June during a hearing of the Culture, Media and Sport Committee – is definitely a chap with skin thicker than an aubergine. However, in inviting “needy and greedy” Sarah, Duchess of York to guest edit and co-host ITV1’s flagship morning show, he most certainly scored yet another own goal and most definitely caused another nail to be banged into this tacky show’s coffin.
Featuring a segment in which ‘Feckless Fergie’ apparently decided a winner of Iron Chef UK in 2010 named Marcus Bean should cook her carbonara – a rather simple to make dish she claimed she’d never actually seen being made before – here was an example of a car crash calamity that lasted an excruciating two-and-a-half hours. In it, the live-in ex-wife of non-sweaty ‘Randy’ Prince Andrew laughed like a hyena and pranced like a show pony; she had no idea what she was doing and quite frankly brought shame on her royal relatives.
Whilst one should ask if this tawdry twerp – whom, during a phone-in segment about relationships, crassly advised ‘Suzanne from Newcastle’ to start wearing “saucy underwear sets” to spice up her and her hubby’s somewhat lacking sex lives – had sought out the advice of His Majesty King Charles’s advisors before agreeing to a television ‘outing’ of this type, another question has to be: “How much was this mother of two princesses paid for what could be the first of a series of “co-host” appearances?”
“It’s your show, I’ll be the fluff” giggled the former Sarah Ferguson as the show started. By the end, she was lauded as having “totally undersold [herself]” by a somewhat soppy Dermot O’Leary, but her final guest of choosing just truly illustrated what a prized pillock this wastrel wazzock genuinely, really genuinely is.
Whilst some – myself included in the past – have pointed out that this apologist for a Pizza Express loving prince known best for hanging around with despots and dictators and for paying around £12 million to a woman he allegedly did not have sexual relations often exhibits childish ways in her way of thinking, her description of Devil Woman singer ‘Cliffy’ was yet another in a long line of outings of her appallingly bad judgment.
After bigging-up the one-time mate of the croaked child abuser Rolf Harris as “humble and kind,” the “Peter Pan of Pop” turned nasty. He spoke of how he hadn’t wanted to be photographed with Elvis Presley because “he’d put on weight… If I’m having him hanging on my refrigerator, of course he’s got to look good” and did so in front of a self-professed ‘larger’ lady, Alison Hammond. Then “put in his place,” as the MailOnline’s Laura Parkin referenced the response to the museli muncher, Hammond quipped back: “You should never have put it off just because they’re a little bit heavier… Is that why you don’t want me at your house?” Bizarrely, Fergie didn’t bat an eyelid.
On Monday 20th November on Twitter, Matthew Steeples asked: “Is it appropriate for non-sweaty Prince Andrew’s live-in ex-wife Sarah, Duchess of York to lower herself to ‘co-hosting’ funeral queue-jumper’s favourite show ‘This Morning’?” He added the hahtags: #ThisMorning #ITV #Fergie #DuchessOfYork #PrinceAndrew #royal #royalty #outrage #disgrace and of the four available responses, 43.7% favoured the answer: “No – Shameful; Tacky” whilst 33.7% opted for “No – Shows ITV’s decline.” Just 14.2% felt: “Yes – She’s a fun choice” whilst only 8.4% supported: “Yes – She needs the wonga.”On the same day, ‘The Mirror’ asked: “Do you think Cliff Richard’s comments on ‘This Morning’ were inappropriate?” 83% of respondents unsurprisingly answered: “Yes, they were.”
Feckless Fergie’s ‘This Morning’ F**k-up… The Main Moments…
To her This Morning co-hosts Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary on Monday 20th November 2023: “We’re on. I’m terrified. It’s your show, I’ll be the fluff.”
Appropriately given her penchant for wonga-wonga (especially from the likes of the late, not-so-great Jeffrey Epstein), whilst spinning a wheel in a game named Spin to Win: “Show me the money.”
Asked by Dermot O’Leary: “Can you just give us a little insight into what Christmas dinner is like with the royal family?” the normally turbo-tongued Fergie answered: “Beans on toast.”
Asked about her relationships with people: “I prefer animals. It’s all about kindness.”
“I think I’ve been around the block. It’s cool to be here, but cool people don’t say it’s cool.”
Of what she gets upto in relationships: “I used to leave love notes…. I love a little note in the pocket. I love the moment where he suddenly or she suddenly puts their hand in the pocket and sees a love note. I used to do that – put them in the squash shoes.”
During a phone-in about relationships whilst playing at being an agony aunt: “Ask me just about anything, ring in about love, relationships, hard times.” (ITV clearly did not allow anyone to phone in about ‘Randy’ Prince Andrew nor the many times ‘Feckless Fergie’ has dragged the royal family’s ‘good name’ through the mire).
Illustrating that she hasn’t a clue how to boil a bowl of pasta, to her carbonara cook, Marcus Bean: “You’re very good looking… Do people really listen to him whilst in the bath?”
“I really love that you have shown me how to [cook carbonara] and that is the first time I have seen it done.”
To a caller, Suzanne from Newcastle, wanting relationship advice: “Yah. Get a lovely saucy underwear set from your chest of drawers, blow dry the hair and take him out on a treat… It’s the element of surprise and it will bring the magic back into your relationship… It needs to be more treats that he’s lost for words.”
“You’ve got this Suzanne and I’m so proud of you calling today and being so brave to ring us. Well done you. Now, get that sexy underwear out.”
To other callers, clearly not realising the ongoing cost of living crisis for most viewers: “There need to be more treats. Treats. Treats. Treats… Lovely, lovely restaurants and lovely hotels.”
To a caller whose husband likes climbing: “You could say: Darling, I’ve booked your favourite place to climb, I will just be, you know, just waiting when you come back, you go climbing and when you come back we can have a lovely weekend with the saucy underwear on… Rekindle.”
Of Artificial Intelligence (AI): “I don’t think anyone watching should be frightened of AI. Maybe, progressing, going forward, it can be a useful tool.”
Of looking after rehomed dogs: “Do you shave the chest first if they are ‘vairy’ hairy?”
Of creepy Christian crooner Sir Cliff Richard: “I’m lost for words and that’s just very unlike me… You are a musical treasure… You’re incredible, I can’t get over it, it’s just incredible… All those hip moves.”
“You really are as humble and as kind as you always have been. How do you do that?” (He pompously answered: “For me, it comes easily.”
To the tawdry presenters of ITV1’s Loose Women whilst Gloria Hunniford danced like a fool just before the end of her first This Morning guest edit and co-host session: “I feel like I’m back home again.”
The Media Response…
Stuart Heritage, The Guardian (1 star out of 5): “Sarah Ferguson’s love tips make a doomed show even more disastrous… Can the Duchess of York present TV? Not one bit. Does the Autocue short-circuit her brain? Oh yes. Will she save this sinking ship? Never?”
“Is Sarah Ferguson an experienced television presenter? No she is not. Does she look as if she has ever watched a single episode of daytime television in her life? Also no. Can she read full sentences? On the basis of her performance today, it’s debatable. Did the whole thing stink of a publicity stunt designed purely to drown out the show’s obvious death rattle? God, yes.”
“Clearly, the heroes here are Hammond and O’Leary, two exceptionally safe pairs of hands, who managed to guide Ferguson through the show in the same way you help a drunk friend safely through their front door. The presenters were perfect foils to the duchess throughout and this stupid attention-seeking act would have fallen apart in seconds without them.”
“Let’s be clear, getting Ferguson to host This Morning was a very silly idea. None of it made for good, or even very competent, television. But it did give you the same sort of thrill that you got at school whenever a dog broke through the fence and started running around the playing field. For a show that’s in as much trouble as This Morning is, it just about counts as a victory.”
Tina Campbell for The Standard: “Viewers have been left unimpressed by Sarah, Duchess of York’s ‘painful’ co-hosting debut.”
Jan Moir, Daily Mail: “Sarah, Duchess of York, guest-edited and co-presented a special edition of This Morning (ITV) on Monday. I want to be honest. I want to be kind. Yet when it comes to the Duchess in a live television situation, these two virtues become mutually and volcanically exclusive.”
“From 10am until the show ended, 150 white-knuckle minutes later, the Ferg launching herself on to daytime television, like Icarus in reverse thrust, was every bit as marvelously terrible as I had hoped.”
“Hard to pick a highlight amongst the word-mangling, corgi-wrangling spaghetti cook-in and the interview with Sir Cliff Richard (Fergie: ‘You really are as humble and as kind as you always have been, how do you do that?’ Sir Cliff: ‘For me, it comes easily.’ But her brief turn as a phone-in agony aunt was exquisite.”
“‘Basically she has been around the block and she is here to help,’ said host Dermot O’Leary, making Fergie sound like an obliging pony with a dodgy past and the foamy fetlocks to match – and to be fair, that is not a million miles from the truth.”
“In her green outfit and pixie boots, she looked like Mad Mother Elf, a panto character in search of a plot, which also kind of sums up her life to date… Still, this may have been the most exciting episode of This Morning in the show’s history.”
The Twitter Response…
“Sorry, I tuned out… I haven’t unclenched my fists since 10am.”
“The whole Sarah Ferguson thing is so random and actually quite awkward to watch.”
“Any comment about ‘Mr Humble’ fat shaming Elvis, making Alison having to comment with no support from you [Sarah, Duchess of York] or Dermot? You’ve had terrible things said about your weight, but still groveled to that vile man [Sir Cliff Richard]. State of him.”
“How weird that This Morning got rid of John Leslie, Fred Talbot and Phillip Schofield – but they bring in the paedophile loan taker Sarah Ferguson.”
“‘How do we keep our spark alive?’ … Sarah Ferguson… Letting your husband go on a lads’ holiday. If has a mate with a private island in the Caribbean, that’s ideal. Always used to cheer Andrew right up!”
“Husband said this morning that Sarah, Duchess of York giving relationship advice is like the fox in the hen house teaching chickens.”
“Oh dear, Sarah Ferguson – who “sold Andrew for £500,000 in cash for royal access scandal” – gets her own television programme show. #ThisMorning.”
“So Cliff Richard fat shaming Elvis and saying he didn’t want a photo of him hanging on his fridge forever. After, Sarah Ferguson called him ‘humble.’ What the actual heck?”
“Who on earth thought Sarah Ferguson would make good telly?”
“Sarah Ferguson mentioned on Epstein flight logs, but This Morning wants to hire her. Has anyone asked any questions about this?”
The Previous Weird Words of “Greedy” and “Needy” Freeloader Sarah, Duchess of York…
Sarah, Duchess of York, the live-in ex-wife at Royal Lodge, Windsor of supposedly skint ‘Randy Andy’ – a non-sweating nuisance who got his long-suffering relatives to pay a supposed sum of circa £12 million to Virginia Roberts Giuffre, a woman he has previously claimed to have met – is known for her weird warblings. They number:
Of sex, herself and goats: “One of the worst headlines said 82% [of the population] would rather sleep with a goat than Fergie. It’s never left me.”
Of her writing novels and her style: “Sherlock Holmes meets Peaky Blinders.”
Of the royal family: “They tried to put the little redhead in a cage.”
Of her own family: “I do believe in family unity. I think forgiveness is key.”
Of the Duke of York: “A good man… In 1986, I married a very good man. Zip.”
Of whether she might remarry Prince Andrew: “Oh bless your heart, no. I think we’re great as we are.”
Of supporting her disgraced ex-husband financially: “I will always be there [for Prince Andrew].”
“When Andrew went through a hard time, I used to be able to throw it to ‘The Boss.’”
“Since he stepped back [from royal duties] he doesn’t actually take taxpayers’ money and I’m in a position where I can support him and the rest of the family through my work. And I’m really pleased and proud to do that.”
“All I will say is that for many years now – it started with Budgie the Little Helicopter – I’ve really pushed to look after my girls and to contribute to the York family life.”
Of where she and the Duke of York will end up living in the future: “Honestly, I operate from living in the present. You never get complacent and it makes for a better day because you never get disappointed, then. You look at life and you go, we can adapt, we can be flexible.”
Of whether she might remarry someone else: “I think I’ve got too much baggage. I look at today and if suddenly I find love again, well, that’s another bonus, isn’t it?”
Of her daughters Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie: “Exceptional… I love my girlies, I’m so proud of them. They are exceptional children… If mum’s OK, they’re OK.”
“My daughters come first in my life, they always have. Because I lost my mum so early, I’m subconsciously very present with them. When I brought them up, I always left my problems at the door. Your problem is not their problem – it’s not their fault. We laugh together a lot. We are just very close.”
Of her grandchildren: “I’m ‘Super Gran’… When my grandchildren see me, they immediately laugh because they know I’m going to be up to something, up to no good somewhere.”
“Every time I think about about co-parenting and co-grandparenting and about divorce, marriage and all these different things, I still come back to the principle that the sun will come up tomorrow, and be grateful, just get on with it.”
Of the late Queen Elizabeth II: “For me, she was more a mother than my own mother. Aren’t I the luckiest person alive to have had that great honour? When I was with her, I used to say: ‘I can’t believe it. People wait and put on their best dress to have an audience with you, and I’m wandering around the garden in wellies!’”
“For the whole nation, for the world. Steadfast, consistent, iconic. [She had an] extraordinary ability to put someone at ease. I still now think it was such an honour [to have known her].”
“During the last three years, her poor son [was] going through such a tumultuous time… And I think HM was very relieved I could help her with him, so we became even closer, then.”
“I’m so lucky. All my life, I was lucky enough to know ‘The Boss,’ HM. Like the nation and the world, she was always there. It was like having a hand at your back. It just made you always strive for being better and trying to be better, learning from her, whenever you were with her just taking everything she said as a memory. She was such an incredible legend for us all.”
Of the late Queen’s corgis: “They’re very good boys, they’re very gentle. I think they knew that they weren’t to jump up and be naughty. They used to sit and watch the racing with her. And when you give them a biscuit, they don’t snatch. They’re very special, they’re national treasures.”
“They really make me laugh and the follow me around. Sometimes I break a little ‘biccie’ – a digestive biscuit – in the same way the Queen broke it into little pieces, and give it to them and tell them to remember their boss.”
Of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex: “I have been judged all my life, and I have no judgment on the Sussexes.”
“It must be hard for Meghan and can I relate to her. I believe she is modern and fabulous. She was famous before. She is great. Why can’t Meghan be great? Why can’t she be celebrated? I have been in Meghan’s shoes, and I still am. There’s always a twist of negativity and it just gets so sad and tiring… I abhor bullying and I feel desperately sorry for the pain they must be going through.”
“I believe very strongly that I have absolutely no judgment on any other person’s life, and I look at how much she [Meghan] loves him [Harry] and loves the children and gives him a love that he’s never had before. That’s how I look at it… The most important thing is, Diana would be so very proud of Archie and Lili. She would have adored every moment of it.”
Of King Charles III: “It’s incredible what he’s done for the environment. He was a trailblazer and many years ago, everybody said: ‘What’s he talking about?’ But he’s right. I’m a great believer and supporter of him, as I am of the Queen Consort.”
Of herself and her life: “I have been in the gutter.”
“I’m a brilliant mother. The best mother.”
“I don’t believe that any single person has the right to judge another person. I’m not in a position myself to make any judgments.”
“I’m very steadfast and stoic… I won’t let anyone down. I’m very loyal.”
Being rather wishy-washy: “The most important thing is that the sun will come up tomorrow and the day will move on.”
Of food, family and dining: “As long as it is hot, wet and goes down the right way, it’s fine with me.”
“With every smell, I smell food. With every sight, I see food. I can almost hear food. I want to spade the whole lot through my mouth at Mach 2. Basta!”
“We all sit round the table and eat together. Andrew and I believe in total parent unity. We’re best friends.”
On the coronation of King Charles III: “Well I’ve decided the best thing about British around a coronation – although I’ve never been to one – I think we should, I should set up a tea room at the bottom of the drive with bunting and cakes.”
“Never presume, never assume. I don’t know. But I’ll be there at the end of the drive with a cup of tea if I’m not there.”
Of wanting to be a television star: “I would quite like to go on Dancing With The Stars. I would like somebody to teach me to tango. I do know the show and my children would be so proud of me.”
On Americans: “I divorced, went to America, wrote a book, went on Oprah and did 12 years as the longest running spokesperson of Weight Watchers. I looked to America to support me and to help me and I really can’t thank the American people enough for what they gave me and what they did for me.”
Of when she decided she wanted to bag a royal: “I met [Prince Andrew] when I was 12, and I said: ‘I’m going to marry him.’”
Of marriage, divorce and work: “I left my marriage knowing I’d have to work. I have.”
“I didn’t want a divorce, but had to because of circumstance.”
“I wish we’d never got divorced. He and I both wish we’d never divorced, but we did. I wish I could go back and be the bride again, but I can’t.”
Of her many, many mistakes: “I felt that I ostracised myself by my behaviour, by the past, by living with all the regrets of my mistakes, that I sort of wore a hair shirt and beat myself up most of the day thinking and regretting why did I make such a mistake. Why have I made so many mistakes?”
“You look at the devil in the face, which you do. Then you forgive, and you say: ‘OK, I’ve made almost a mistake that will never be forgotten,’ and forgive.”
“I think the obstacles are the way, as opposed to in the way. I feel very strongly that I completely and utterly own my very naïve self and made endless different wrong decisions, whatever they may be, but in the end, it’s got me to today as an author. I’m a person in my own right, I’m Sarah.”
“I was so out of control with desperation… I was looking for quick fixes in the places I wouldn’t normally look… I’ve been a huge overtrusting, idiotic, stupid woman that went to look for the perfect situation, and that’s all I can say really.”
“I’ve done the work to get to myself. I’ve done masses of mental therapy. I probably reached to the wrong places and the wrong people and made, as you call it, mistakes. I don’t call them mistakes. I call them enormous learning curves.”
As Kevin Spacey’s eccentric ‘friend’ Geoffrey Mark claims the “exonerated” actor will now “leave the nonsense behind” and begin his comeback, we remind of his friendships with ‘curious sorts’ including Prince Andrew, Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and Harvey Weinstein
A ‘friend’ of Kevin Spacey, Geoffrey Mark, has declared that the Academy Award winning actor and ‘friend’ of the jailed sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell “was always innocent, and just preferred enjoying a bachelor’s lifestyle rather than an abuser’s.”
Asked further about Spacey being “exonerated recently in a London court” at an event for the Hollywood Museum, self-professed “walking encyclopedia of show business history” Mr Mark replied:
“Yeah… It’s very rare, in or out of showbusiness, when someone has a very strong opinion about something, that one is shown to be absolutely correct.”
“I’ve known Kevin for many years. I knew he was innocent. I knew why these charges were being brought. I understood how wrong the whole thing was. We’ve discussed that off camera. I am thrilled to discuss it on camera.”
“Kevin Spacey is one of the most talented human beings on the planet and he needs to get his career back because we’re missing out on all the wonderful, wonderful, wonderful performances that he’s still got left in him.”
“So, let’s leave all this, erm, nonsense behind. Let’s celebrate Kevin Spacey. He’s my buddy. I do.”
“[Kevin’s] a brilliant conversationalist and yes, erm, he does like younger men. Men. Yeah, they’ve been times he’s shown up with a blonde or a brunette on his shoulders, but they were grown folks who were intelligent, brilliant conversationalists.”
“Kevin has given so much to charity that people don’t even know about. That’s the guy I know; this charity loving, charity giving bon vivant, raconteur who is more talented and more attractive than even he realises and I just feel blessed… I just feel blessed. It’s so good to be just a little part of his life.”
“Was it fair the way he was treated? I think yes and no. An allegation is an allegation. I don’t think someone should lose their livelihood over an allegation. On the other hand, all of us who sign contracts have moral clauses in them. Alienating a good part of your audience is a money loser.”
“I think it happened too quickly. I think it happened too much, but I don’t think it is unfair because there are folks out there who are guilty of these things. We can’t just look the other way about paedophilia. We can’t just say: ‘Kevin wasn’t guilty, so therefore nobody else is’ as no, unfortunately, a lot of people are. Just not him and sometimes we have to air on the side of children and say, well, erm, ‘I take it on the chin because you gotta [sic] keep the kids’ welfare the most important thing.”
“I think if the scandal were about anything else, I would say he was terribly and unfairly treated. Only because the subject was children, you’ve got a take a stab and say: ‘This is unfair, but in a way it’s understandable’ and I am thrilled that he has been exonerated. That’s fair.”
Turning to “what’s next for Spacey,” the decidedly eccentric Grammy Award nominee Mr Mark warbled on and opined:
“I think it’s all going to all be about the money. If Kevin comes up with something that looks like it’s going to make studios money, they’re going to forgive him and if Kevin can’t come up with that, then they’re going to use these false accusations as an excuse.”
“So, it all depends on what he comes up with next and what happens in this country politically because unfortunately even outrage like this comes and goes in fads and we’ll have to see who really screws up to get headlines to see how much forgiveness Kevin gets.”
“I’m sure he is asking himself exactly that. ‘What is next? What will people accept from me?’ He lost so much, he’s going to have to rebuild.”
“Even though it was never his fault, he should never have had to go through this. He’s going to have to rebuild and in doing so, my opinion is he’s going to go in a direction we hadn’t considered before. He’s going to do something new and creative because that’s who Kevin is and we’re gonna [sic] see a whole new creative side to him come out. And I’m gonna [sic] say that of course and most folks are gonna [sic] say: ‘Wow, I never knew.’ There’s a lot more coming; there’s a lot more coming and I’m thrilled to see it.”
Spacey was exonerated of nine sexual offence charges relating to four men between 2001 and 2013 by a jury at Southwark Crown Court in July. A claim by Star Trek actor Anthony Rapp that he was sexual assaulted by the former House of Cards star when Rapp was only 14 was also previously dismissed whilst allegations concerning 15 other individuals have continued to “tarnish” his reputation.

As dirty deviant Daphne Barak peddles stories about Fergie’s cancer battle, Matthew Steeples reminds that this toady turd-like twaddler should simply be silenced
Nobody in their right mind would ever wish ill-health on anyone other than perhaps Hitler or Stalin, but though I join with all wishing Sarah, Duchess of York a full and fast recovery from cancer, I today have to call out her pugnacious ‘pal’ Daphne Barak for raking over the story of her mastectomy.
Ms Barak – whom it must be noted is a ‘mate’ also of sexually sordid sorts including Bill Clinton, Ghislaine Maxwell and Donald Trump – is clearly one of those women who flocks to grime in the way that flies flock to cow dung.
Today, the cousin of a former Prime Minister of Israel who enjoyed hanging out with the Ponzi scheming paedophile Jeffrey Epstein shared her latest tittle-tattle in both The Sun on Sunday and The Mail on Sunday. In doing so illustrated her inability to be impartial in her reporting and provided yet further proof that she is nothing but a shoveler of spurious spam and someone whose stories should be taken with a pinch of salt.
For the Mail, bumbling berk Barak salivated: “When my dear friend Sarah Ferguson found out she had cancer, she broke the news in her typical, irrepressible style.” The garbling ghoul – clearly illustrating not an ounce of sympathy for the victims of a bunch of privileged paedophiles – then crassly crowed: “I was sure it was in no small part due to the stress Sarah has endured from all the ‘nonsense’ as we often referred to it – that is to say supported her ex-husband Prince Andrew over being forced to quit his official Royal duties over his friendship with paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.”
In The Sun, pretending to be ‘Little Miss Generous,’ this driveling douchebag attempted to persuade readers of how kind hearted she truly is. The cretinous creep crowed: “I sent her a bouquet of purple flowers, her favourite colour.” Perhaps, if genuinely a decent person, the shameless scrapbag Daphne Barak might do something else; donate her hefty fees from The Sun on Sunday and The Mail on Sunday to a cancer charity.

In October 2022, we asked a number of questions of Daphne Barak after she published prison ‘interviews’ with her chum Ghislaine Maxwell. She failed to answer them then, so we again ask them now:
Why did the American authorities allow a prisoner to give such interviews so soon after her conviction?
Did the authorities not consider the impact such interviews would have on the victims of this convicted sex trafficking nonce and grubby groping abuser?
What is the agenda of Daphne Barak and what involvement did Kevin Maxwell and his siblings have in setting up these interviews?
Did PR peddlers for the mucky madam – such as Brian Basham, Jay Beecher and Ross Gow – have any involvement in the bringing about of these interviews?
Why did this so-called ‘journalist’ not ask anything about what this mucky madam feels about the impact of her actions on her many victims?
Why did this so-called ‘journalist’ not ask anything about this mucky madam’s secret marriage to Scott Borgerson in 2015?
Why did this so-called ‘journalist’ not ask why Ghislaine Maxwell – someone she’s associated with for at least 30 years – hasn’t paid off her debts to her lawyers?

Predictable to her rotten core, mucky madam Ghislaine Maxwell has yet again proven she simply doesn’t understand the concept of “the rules are the rules” and that of “playing the game” being the best way to survive life in the pokey.
The convicted criminal sex offending deviant daughter of the late pension plunderer Robert Maxwell and the one-time lover of the Ponzi scheming paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, it was yesterday revealed, has now made enemies at the Florida prison where she is set to spend the next 20 years of her life, FCI Tallahassee.
Said to be “living in fear of retaliation… after she snitched on two violent inmates who tried to exort her” according to the New York Post’s Patrick Reilly, 61-year-old attention seeking Maxwell got two “tattooed, tall and thick” Cuban women placed in solitary confinement for 47 days and of this an unnamed source told the DailyMail.com’s Ben Ashford:
“‘Las Cubanas’ have a reputation for being tough and mean inside jail and they don’t let anything slide. They are saying Maxwell needs to pay for the 47. ‘Snitches get stitches,’ as the saying goes. They will beat her up the first chance they get.”
“When the Cubans discovered what ‘Max’ [the prison nickname of Maxwell] was doing [she was allegedly ‘stealing’ extra fruit, tofu and vegetables with the help of a prison kitchen worker], they demanded she spend her entire commissary limit of $360 on things for them otherwise they would report her.”
“They even wrote her a note which was a bad idea as ‘Max’ took that to the Lieutenant’s office as evidence of blackmail. They take that sort of thing very seriously as it’s considered to be threatening someone. The girls each spent 47 days in the SHU and they are super angry about it.”
“The first rule of life inside is you never snitch. If you have a problem, you handle it with the other inmate, one on one, usually by fighting.”
‘So, when the girls got out, Max was freaking out. She basically had a nervous breakdown over it. She even demanded a transfer. ‘Max’ was given the option of self-segregating by going into protective custody. It’s the same as the SHU, the only difference is that it’s voluntary, so she wouldn’t accept that.”
“One of the Cubans has a particular reputation for starting fights and intimidating other inmates. She gets out later this month so ‘Max’ is praying the guards can keep her safe until then.”
Maxwell – who has been snapped running in the prison grounds previously and who is now simply known as federal prisoner 02879-509 and who has used pseudonyms including ‘Jennifer Ellmax,’ ‘Jen Marshall,’ ‘Janet Marshall,’ ‘Mrs Scott Borgerson’ and just plain old ‘G’ – has previous form with trouble making in prison. In August 2021, the former ‘socialite’ had a “meltdown” and “tried to barricade herself in the video conference room in the Metropolitan Detention Center prison with a cart of legal documents.”
In August 2020, The Steeple Times reported on her “outrageously moaning about not having desk or email access” and quoted her lawyers as saying that she was “still not satisfied with the conditions she [found] herself in in a federal lockup in Brooklyn.” She also did not like being “forced to wear special clothing” or having prison guards “observing her and [taking] notes on her every activity.”

This afternoon on Twitter, Matthew Steeples asked: “Should evil nonce Ghislaine Maxwell stop moaning about prison life and instead name the names of those she sex trafficked her victims to?” By 2pm GMT on Thursday 1st June 2023, the majority of respondents favoured the answer: “Yes; it’d aid her victims.”
Names in the firing line most obvious from attention seeking Ghislaine Maxwell’s filthy ‘Little Black Book’ (if she decides to seek to minimise her sentence as she seeks an appeal)…
Ghislaine Maxwell has until later this month to cooperate and thus “name names” if she wishes to see her sentence reduced.
Those Scott Borgerson’s now ex-wife has been known to associate with – none of whom The Steeple Times is suggesting at this time as having been involved in any of her crimes, but whom she might seek revenge against for not offering her what she might consider enough public or even private support – include:
Alexander Acosta

Ehud Barak
Tom Barrack
Scott Borgerson

Prince Andrew, Duke of York and his live-in ex-wife Sarah, Duchess of York
The low security Federal Correctional Institute (FCI) in Tallahassee, Florida houses around 860 female inmates and was opened in 1938. It is quite a contrast to the life of luxury that Maxwell is used to, but there are opportunities for her to continue her love of yoga and she could also take up painting, leather-work, art and ceramics. It is believed the mucky madam has also found work in the prison library, though it would definitely be best if she were kept away from computers – given her known ‘abilities’ at technical deviancy and connections with espionage.Croaked paedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s ex-lover and co-collaborator Ghislaine Maxwell has made friends since being moved to a low security clink in Florida. She is pictured here walking with an unknown fellow inmate, but is known to have taken Narcisa Veliz Novack (prisoner 91518-004) as a chum. Novack is notorious for having slayed her hotel husband Ben Novack Jr. in the Hilton Hotel in Rye Brook, New York and his mother, Bernice, in the garage of her Fort Lauderdale, Florida home in 2009. She was subsequently sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.Run Ghislaine Run – Running is no doubt a relief from the monotony of jail for the one-time close associate of Presidents Bill Clinton and Donald Trump, Kevin Spacey and the Duke of York. After two years confined indoors in the Metropolitan Detention in Brooklyn, New York, the ocean obsessed vegan must love being outdoors in the Florida sunshine.
As Sarah, Duchess of York finds herself “delayed” with her podcast, she also gets exposed for meeting paedophile Jeffrey Epstein whilst he was under house arrest; shame on this indolent ignoramus
Aside from being hit head-on with a £19 million ($23 million, €22 million or درهم86 million) lawsuit alongside Lord Grade over her shady dealings concerning ‘loans’ taken from Gate Ventures, the hapless harpy that is Sarah, Duchess of York has found new scandal coming her way this morning.
The deranged dope that was formerly known as Sarah Ferguson featured in a Daily Mail ‘exclusive’ that recounted that the now thankfully croaked Ponzi schemer Jeffrey Epstein listed meetings with her – held whilst he was under house arrest having been convicted of gruesome sexual offences – as “Duchess anytime.”
With her “no topic is off limits” Tea Talks With The Duchess & Sarahcuriously delayed also – likely because the monarch, King Charles III, has kiboshed her tittle-tattling claptrap – ‘Feckless Fergie’ now yet again needs to be reminded of the key question that she has thus far failed to answer. That question? Did she ever repay the loans and other benefits she took from the known-to-her-at-the-time-to-be-a-paedophile Jeffrey Epstein?

Should Sarah, Duchess of York now offer an apology after it has been revealed she met with her loan giving paedophile chum Jeffrey Epstein whilst he was under house arrest and should she also cancel her "delayed" podcast "Spill The Tea"? #SpillTheTea#SarahFerguson#DuchessOfYork

The Weird Words of “Greedy” and “Needy” Freeloader Wannabe Sherlock Holmes Sarah, Duchess of York… They Get Weirder By The Week (And Soon We’ll Have A Book Of Them)…
Given the live-in ex-wife at Royal Lodge, Windsor of supposedly skint ‘Randy Andy’ – a non-sweating nuisance who got his long-suffering relatives to pay a supposed sum of circa £12 million to Virginia Roberts Giuffre, a woman he has previously claimed to have met – is in on a world tour to prattle on to anyone who pays to listen, perhaps she should be reminded of her own weird and even weirder warblings. They number:
Of sex, herself and goats: “One of the worst headlines said 82% [of the population] would rather sleep with a goat than Fergie. It’s never left me.”
Of her writing novels and her style: “Sherlock Holmes meets Peaky Blinders.”
Of the royal family: “They tried to put the little redhead in a cage.”
Of her own family: “I do believe in family unity. I think forgiveness is key.”
Of the Duke of York: “A good man… In 1986, I married a very good man. Zip.”
Of whether she might remarry Prince Andrew: “Oh bless your heart, no. I think we’re great as we are.”
Of supporting her disgraced ex-husband financially: “I will always be there [for Prince Andrew].”
“When Andrew went through a hard time, I used to be able to throw it to ‘The Boss.’”
“Since he stepped back [from royal duties] he doesn’t actually take taxpayers’ money and I’m in a position where I can support him and the rest of the family through my work. And I’m really pleased and proud to do that.”
“All I will say is that for many years now – it started with Budgie the Little Helicopter – I’ve really pushed to look after my girls and to contribute to the York family life.”
Of where she and the Duke of York will end up living in the future: “Honestly, I operate from living in the present. You never get complacent and it makes for a better day because you never get disappointed, then. You look at life and you go, we can adapt, we can be flexible.”
Of whether she might remarry someone else: “I think I’ve got too much baggage. I look at today and if suddenly I find love again, well, that’s another bonus, isn’t it?”
Of her daughters Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie: “Exceptional… I love my girlies, I’m so proud of them. They are exceptional children… If mum’s OK, they’re OK.”
“My daughters come first in my life, they always have. Because I lost my mum so early, I’m subconsciously very present with them. When I brought them up, I always left my problems at the door. Your problem is not their problem – it’s not their fault. We laugh together a lot. We are just very close.”
Of her grandchildren: “I’m ‘Super Gran’… When my grandchildren see me, they immediately laugh because they know I’m going to be up to something, up to no good somewhere.”
“Every time I think about about co-parenting and co-grandparenting and about divorce, marriage and all these different things, I still come back to the principle that the sun will come up tomorrow, and be grateful, just get on with it.”
Sarah, Duchess of York of the late Queen Elizabeth II: “For me, she was more a mother than my own mother. Aren’t I the luckiest person alive to have had that great honour? When I was with her, I used to say: ‘I can’t believe it. People wait and put on their best dress to have an audience with you, and I’m wandering around the garden in wellies!’”
“For the whole nation, for the world. Steadfast, consistent, iconic. [She had an] extraordinary ability to put someone at ease. I still now think it was such an honour [to have known her].”
“During the last three years, her poor son [was] going through such a tumultuous time… And I think HM was very relieved I could help her with him, so we became even closer, then.”
“I’m so lucky. All my life, I was lucky enough to know ‘The Boss,’ HM. Like the nation and the world, she was always there. It was like having a hand at your back. It just made you always strive for being better and trying to be better, learning from her, whenever you were with her just taking everything she said as a memory. She was such an incredible legend for us all.”
Of the late Queen’s corgis: “They’re very good boys, they’re very gentle. I think they knew that they weren’t to jump up and be naughty. They used to sit and watch the racing with her. And when you give them a biscuit, they don’t snatch. They’re very special, they’re national treasures.”
“They really make me laugh and the follow me around. Sometimes I break a little ‘biccie’ – a digestive biscuit – in the same way the Queen broke it into little pieces, and give it to them and tell them to remember their boss.”
Of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex: “I have been judged all my life, and I have no judgment on the Sussexes.”
“It must be hard for Meghan and can I relate to her. I believe she is modern and fabulous. She was famous before. She is great. Why can’t Meghan be great? Why can’t she be celebrated? I have been in Meghan’s shoes, and I still am. There’s always a twist of negativity and it just gets so sad and tiring… I abhor bullying and I feel desperately sorry for the pain they must be going through.”
“I believe very strongly that I have absolutely no judgment on any other person’s life, and I look at how much she [Meghan] loves him [Harry] and loves the children and gives him a love that he’s never had before. That’s how I look at it… The most important thing is, Diana would be so very proud of Archie and Lili. She would have adored every moment of it.”
Of King Charles III: “It’s incredible what he’s done for the environment. He was a trailblazer and many years ago, everybody said: ‘What’s he talking about?’ But he’s right. I’m a great believer and supporter of him, as I am of the Queen Consort.”
Of herself and her life: “I have been in the gutter.”
“I’m a brilliant mother. The best mother.”
“I don’t believe that any single person has the right to judge another person. I’m not in a position myself to make any judgments.”
“I’m very steadfast and stoic… I won’t let anyone down. I’m very loyal.”
Sarah, Duchess of York on being rather wishy-washy: “The most important thing is that the sun will come up tomorrow and the day will move on.”
Of food, family and dining: “As long as it is hot, wet and goes down the right way, it’s fine with me.”
“With every smell, I smell food. With every sight, I see food. I can almost hear food. I want to spade the whole lot through my mouth at Mach 2. Basta!”
“We all sit round the table and eat together. Andrew and I believe in total parent unity. We’re best friends.”
On the coronation of King Charles III: “Well I’ve decided the best thing about British around a coronation – although I’ve never been to one – I think we should, I should set up a tea room at the bottom of the drive with bunting and cakes.”
“Never presume, never assume. I don’t know. But I’ll be there at the end of the drive with a cup of tea if I’m not there.”
Of wanting to be a television star: “I would quite like to go on Dancing With The Stars. I would like somebody to teach me to tango. I do know the show and my children would be so proud of me.”
On Americans: “I divorced, went to America, wrote a book, went on Oprah and did 12 years as the longest running spokesperson of Weight Watchers. I looked to America to support me and to help me and I really can’t thank the American people enough for what they gave me and what they did for me.”
Of when she decided she wanted to bag a royal: “I met [Prince Andrew] when I was 12, and I said: ‘I’m going to marry him.’”
Of marriage, divorce and work: “I left my marriage knowing I’d have to work. I have.”
“I didn’t want a divorce, but had to because of circumstance.”
“I wish we’d never got divorced. He and I both wish we’d never divorced, but we did. I wish I could go back and be the bride again, but I can’t.”
Sarah, Duchess of York of her many, many mistakes: “I felt that I ostracised myself by my behaviour, by the past, by living with all the regrets of my mistakes, that I sort of wore a hair shirt and beat myself up most of the day thinking and regretting why did I make such a mistake. Why have I made so many mistakes?”
“You look at the devil in the face, which you do. Then you forgive, and you say: ‘OK, I’ve made almost a mistake that will never be forgotten,’ and forgive.”
“I think the obstacles are the way, as opposed to in the way. I feel very strongly that I completely and utterly own my very naïve self and made endless different wrong decisions, whatever they may be, but in the end, it’s got me to today as an author. I’m a person in my own right, I’m Sarah.”
“I was so out of control with desperation… I was looking for quick fixes in the places I wouldn’t normally look… I’ve been a huge overtrusting, idiotic, stupid woman that went to look for the perfect situation, and that’s all I can say really.”
“I’ve done the work to get to myself. I’ve done masses of mental therapy. I probably reached to the wrong places and the wrong people and made, as you call it, mistakes. I don’t call them mistakes. I call them enormous learning curves.”
Matthew Steeples reports on the latest developments concerning the Ponzi scheming paedophile Jeffrey Epstein and the mucky madam Ghislaine Maxwell and shares new news of which ‘famous face’ associates will likely be ‘sacrificed’
WARNING – GRAPHIC CONTENT: This article contains photographs of the rotting body of the rotten deceased sex trafficking monster and paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
The rancid rathole that keeps on ‘giving’ in the most shocking of fashions that is the case of the sex trafficking ring run by the croaked paedophile Jeffrey Epstein and the mendacious mucky madam Ghislaine Maxwell has taken further turns in recent days.
Aside from Epstein’s former cellmate Nicholas Tartaglione – who had bunked up with him at the time of his first ‘suicide’ attempt at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in the summer of 2019 – having finally been convicted of quadruple murder, it seems the demand for the naming of names to whom he and Maxwell sex trafficked their victims to is finally starting to happen.
Whilst the likes of bankers such as disgraced ex-Barclays and ex-JPMorgan Chase CEO Jes Staley stand accused of, at the very list, ‘enabling’ Epstein through not doing enough due diligence about what the now croaked Ponzi schemer was using funds for, the Prime Minister of Israel between 1999 and 2001, Ehud Barak, is now again facing ‘the heat.’
On 4th May, Barak – whose cousin most curiously is an associate of Sarah, Duchess of York, Hillary Clinton and also Maxwell’s most willing PR peddler Daphne Barak – was named in an article in The Jerusalem Post after a calendar of his meetings with Epstein in 2016 came to light.
According to the report, first published in The Wall Street Journal, Ehud Barak:
Supposedly met with Jeffrey Epstein at least 36 times on a monthly basis from December 2015 onwards.
Epstein had been convicted for sex crimes in 2008 and had subsequently served jail time; it does seem curious that an Israeli ex-Prime Minister with a security detail would not have been aware of such.
Barak flew on Epstein’s private jet and visited his mansions in Florida and New York.
Epstein flew Barak from Palm Beach to Tampa on his ‘Lolita Express’ jet; Barak has claimed this was “for a US military installation” and claims he “flew only twice on his airplane, together with [his] wife and security detail.”
Epstein introduced Barak to Noam Chomsky, a “famed critic of Israel,” at his Lenox Hill mansion in January 2016. On that day “a large group of women were seen entering the home.”
Barak denies having had any relations with “girls or women” via Epstein.
Responding, the politician has stated:
“I never participated in any party or any other improper event around [Epstein], and never met him with girls or minors, or even adult women in improper context or behaviour.”
“In retrospect, [Epstein] seems to be a terrible version of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, but at the time seemed to be an intelligent person, socially well connected and of wide areas of interest, from science to geopolitics.”
Turning their attentions to other ‘famous faces’ associated with the deviant duo on Sunday, Edward Helmore for The Guardian featured further names. He observed:
“Like a Hollywood zombie, the scandal surrounding the late sex offender and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein is resurfacing to infect the reputations of the living, as names once again emerge from legal documents amid fresh details of his daily itinerary of meetings with prominent government, financial and cultural figures.”
“The latest boldface names to emerge from a series of Wall Street Journal reports include the director of CIA, Williams Burns, and Kathryn Ruemmler, White House counsel under Barack Obama, alongside lesser figures including the leftwing professor and activist Noam Chomsky, billionaire venture capitalist Reid Hoffman and Lawrence Summers, former Harvard president and director of the National Economic Council under Obama.”
“And then there were the figures from arts and letters. Woody Allen was scheduled to visit the studio of Jeff Koons with Epstein. Another was Dr Helen Fisher, an anthropologist of human behavior. She was invited to speak to his staff.”
“Simultaneously, a lawsuit filed in US district court by an unnamed woman and the US Virgin Islands against Epstein banker JP Morgan is not only dragging financial fat cats, including JP Morgan’s CEO, Jamie Dimon, and former Barclays CEO Jes Staley, but also Google co-founder Sergey Brin, Hyatt Hotels chairperson Thomas Pritzker, American Canadian businessman Mortimer Zuckerman and former CAA talent agent Michael Ovitz toward giving depositions under oath.”
“Last week, The [Wall Street] Journal looked at just one day – 8 September 2014, six years after Epstein was registered as a sex offender in Florida – and found that he planned to meet with four billionaires: Gates, Zuckerman, Pritzker and Leon Black, a financier whose ties to Epstein are already known.”
“The outlet has not revealed where it obtained the documents, which it said include thousands of pages of emails and schedules from 2013 to 2017.’ It said it could not verify that the scheduled meetings took place, but said some documents ‘provided new details about how often or where the people met with Epstein, and the kinds of favors Epstein did for them.’”
Elsewhere, the appearance of ‘The Grand Old Duke of Broke’ Prince Andrew at his brother’s coronation and coronation concert on Saturday and Sunday last has revived interest in his associations with the dastardly duo Epstein and Maxwell. Both the duke and his live-in ex-wife ‘Fergie’ still have a lot of questions to answer about what money and hospitality they took from the pair and last night’s final episode of Channel 4’s excellent documentary series Andrew: The Problem Prince appropriately concluded with Emily Maitlis asking: “Is there anything left that has been unsaid that you would like to address now?” The rotten royal arrogantly answered: “No, I don’t think so. You have probably dragged out most of what is required.”

With latest developments concerning bankers and politicians being more publicly 'connected', will any of those powerful people Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell sex trafficked their victims to be finally be brought to justice? #JeffreyEpstein#GhislaineMaxwell#abuse#power
This morning on Twitter, Matthew Steeples asked: “With latest developments concerning bankers and politicians being more publicly ‘connected’, will any of those powerful people Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell sex trafficked their victims to be finally be brought to justice?” By 11:30am on Tuesday 9th May 2023, the majority of responses (82.9%) were: “No; nothing will develop.”The former Briarcliff Manor police officer Nick Tartaglione was arrested on 19th December 2016 and charged with a quadruple homicide. The case against him was most curiously delayed by everything from “from the decision to seek the death penalty to the COVID-19 pandemic, to an ongoing, months-long hearing on whether a conflict of interest exists that would keep any of the defense lawyers from continuing to represent [him].” Of the 23rd July 2019 supposed “suicide attempt” by Epstein whilst the pair were cellmates and when Prince Andrew’s ‘bestie’ was “found in a foetal position with marks around his neck,” Tartaglione’s lawyer Bruce Barket “told NBC News that the day before Epstein’s death, officials at the MCC informed him in an email that the internal investigation had concluded and his client would face no charges or internal discipline. ‘We’ve always maintained Nick did nothing wrong and that’s clearly been borne out here by the jail itself,’ Barket said.” Tartaglione was found guilty of the execution of the four men and burying them in a mass grave over a perceived debt last month; he now likely will receive a life sentence when sentenced.“I was her parents’ worst nightmare” – words said by James Staley his very self – will be ringing in the ears of swivel-eyed Debbie Nitzan Staley in the wake of her husband’s former company Barclays’s decision to not (yet) payout £22 million the couple were expecting. No doubt that’ll mean one less holiday for her and her two daughters on their 90-foot long gin palace ‘Bequia’ in the coming years. They face troubles further from the JP Morgan investigation into Staley’s 1,200 plus stash of emails to his one-time friend Jeffrey Epstein and no doubt countless other problems as well.Former Prime Minister of Israel Ehud Barak pictured arriving with his face covered up at Jeffrey Epstein’s ‘paedo palace’ at 9 East 71st Street, Lenox Hill, New York, NY 10021 in January 2016. Curiously, given Epstein had become a convicted sex offender in 2008, why on earth would such a powerful politician want to associate with this poisonous paedophile is a question that must be properly answered.Ehud Barak departing the mansion subsequently looking a little beyond sheepish.One-time Jeffrey Epstein associate Ehud Barak’s cousin, ‘journalist’ Daphne Barak, interviewing her friend of 30 plus years Ghislaine Maxwell alongside Kevin Maxwell in January 2023. The connections run deep in this circle of power and privilege.Daphne Barak pictured in December 2022 with “she who has never confirmed if she repaid the wonga she took from the Ponzi scheming paedophile Jeffrey Epstein” Sarah, Duchess of York and with Hillary Clinton – whom she references her as having “hosted” and “supported the presidential bid” of. Here is a ‘journalist’ whose close connections clearly muddy her mind when it comes to interviewing her subjects. When she conducted her January 2023 interview for ‘Jeremy Kyle’ alongside Kevin Maxwell, why didn’t this ‘journalist’ ask mucky madam Maxwell about ‘Killary’s’ husband taking at least 27 flights on Jeffrey Epstein’s ‘Lolita Express’ and his convicted sex trafficker co-collaborator attending Chelsea Clinton’s wedding? Curious that; very curious indeed.The Duke of York may have settled – for a sum unknown that has been estimated as high as £12 million – with Epstein victim Virginia Roberts Giuffre, but questions remain as to whether he and his live-in ex-wife, Sarah, Duchess of York ever repaid loans and other benefits taken from the one-time friend he invited to Balmoral, Sandringham and Windsor Castle. Whilst the prince will never be able to live down this chapter, until he shares the real truth (and not nonsense about being able to remember a visit to a Pizza Express many years ago), he will remain a disgraced laughing stock.Both President Donald Trump and President Bill Clinton still have yet to properly explain the truth of their relationships with Jeffrey Epstein. Both politicians met with the maniac on many occasions and both flew on his ‘Lolita Express’ private jet. Clinton certainly spent more time with the Ponzi scheming paedophile, but Trump went as far as to call the since croaked monster a “great guy.”The body of the late paedophile, sex trafficker and suspected espionage expert Jeffrey Epstein will forever remain the actual last known photographs of him. Though conspiracy theorists claim to have spotted him alive and well in New Mexico and elsewhere, this evil cretin will hopefully and most likely never ever be seen again.The cell of the perverted child abuser in the wake of his alleged “suicide.” Epstein did NOT share the cell will Tartaglione at the time of his second, successful ‘suicide’ attempt.The noose created from bedsheets that Prince Andrew’s close chum supposedly used to kill himself on 10th August 2019.Channel 4’s ‘Andrew: The Problem Prince’ is a two-part must watch for anyone interested in this sordid story.
Matthew Steeples asks if rumours are true that Prince Andrew might be penning his memoirs to pay for a £1 million façade paintjob for his ritzy Royal Lodge residence
Impudence and effrontery are ‘qualities’ that the non-sweaty Duke of York are known for and now, illustrating he’s got more front than Pamela Anderson, Brighton, Harrods and Barbara Windsor combined, this rotten ratbag royal is supposedly asking for the astounding sum of £1 million ($1.2 million, €1.1 million or درهم4.5 million) to paint the front façade of Royal Lodge, Windsor. Goodness only knows what a Dulux job for the rest of said building would cost in addition.
Whilst rumours abound that the prince and his grifting ex-wife Sarah, Duchess of York might still yet be forced to leave the £30 million ($36.7 million, €34.1 million or درهم134.7 million) mansion and could end up in Frogmore Cottage instead after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex having conducted ‘#FROGXIT,’ it appears that Jeffrey Epstein’s former ‘bestie’ still doesn’t want to move yet.
If he were to pen a memoir, will Prince Andrew touch on his friendship and what benefits he got from associating with the since croaked paedophile Jeffrey Epstein?As always “unnamed sources” are claiming that the Duke of York has been inspired in his idiotic idea for a memoir by the financial success that has resulted from his nephew, the Duke of Sussex, writing ‘Spare.’ He might do better to consider the negative kickback from not only the public that resulted, but also the rifts that have followed with other members of the royal family.Is the “toady twaddler” Daphne Barak an appropriate person to write a book on behalf of the brother of King Charles III? Given she has been involved with the convicted nonce sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell for over 30 years and given she has been involved with the Clintons for a long time also, is this associate of the foolish and feckless Sarah, Duchess of York to be trusted with the secrets of the royal household?Grade II listed Royal Lodge, Windsor Great Park, Windsor, SL4 2JD has been home to Prince Andrew since he took a 75-year lease on it from the Crown Estate in August 2003. He paid around £1 million for it and had to agree to spend £7.5 million at September 2002 prices excluding VAT on the building’s renovation. In January 2022, the building was valued as being worth a sum of £30 million on the open market.Frogmore Cottage received a £2.4 million ‘MeGain makeover.’ At the time, a predictably unnamed “royal source” told the ‘Daily Mail’ of the two orangeries added: “Natural light is important for the Sussexes as Meghan misses the LA sunshine.” A new kitchen at the property was said to have cost in excess of £100,000 whilst the predictably ‘woke’ wench formerly known as Meghan Markle also demanded all paints used must be from the vegan and chemical free £74 a tin Auro range. Somehow, however, one could not imagine Prince Andrew and his live-in grifter ex-wife feeling suitable for their occupation considering how pretentious the pair of them are.
Instead of accepting that he really doesn’t need a Jeffry Wyatt designed, 30-room mansion in 98 acres at the age of 63 when his two children have long since quit the crib, Catherine Meyer-Funnell for the Express recently reported that “Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson [are] lobbying [the] King for more money through leaks.” She added that the Express royal correspondent Richard Palmer had stated: “There are ‘deals that can be done’ to make sure Andrew gets the support he needs.”
Turning to how the alleged ex-lover of Ghislaine Maxwell might be able to fund a continued residence at Royal Lodge, both The Sun on Sunday and Mail on Sunday covered allegations that the prince is “in talks with US authors to write a tell-all autobiography” this morning.
Citing the “success” of Prince Harry’s tittle-tattling tome Spare, the papers both termed Prince Andrew’s book to be Spare 2.0 in the making. They also referenced the likely ‘author’ to be Daphne Barak – a pugnacious PR peddler who recently conducted interviews for them with her chum of 30 years Ghislaine Maxwell and a woman who has also had a long association with Hillary Clinton.
Speaking to The Sun, “a source” – as usual unnamed – claimed:
“Andrew was the original spare and there’s plenty of material. Compared to Harry, he has a far greater depth of history to draw from.”
“Writing a book would give him the opportunity to fully explain his association with Jeffrey Epstein and the resulting fall-out. But it would also be a fascinating insight into the inner workings of the royals and their relationships. But mainly he wants to set the record straight. If he doesn’t change the narrative, no one else will.”

This morning on Twitter, Matthew Steeples asked: “If he does pen a non-sweaty “tell-all” memoir, do you think the grifter Prince Andrew will also compare his book to the works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle as his live-in ex-wife has said of hers?” As of 11:30am on Sunday 26th March 2023, the clear majority of respondents favoured the option: “Yes; he’s arrogant enough.”Yesterday’s poll, which asked: “In comparing her tawdry bonkbuster books to Sherlock Holmes, has grifter Sarah, Duchess of York shown herself to be beyond bonkers?” produced the result that 55.9% believed her to be “offer her merry rocker” whilst 40% argued her to “just £££ grabber.” Only 4.2% in total felt to the contrary.
In comparing her tawdry bonkbuster books to Sherlock Holmes, Matthew Steeples suggests Sarah, Duchess of York to be beyond bonkers; elsewhere another billionaire chum of hers has been accused of financing a sex trafficking ring
Earlier this month we joined those highlighting the latest grifting activities of Sarah, Duchess of York. ‘Freeloader Fergie’ has now added fuel to the fire and ludicrously, in reference to her bag of bilge bonkbuster ‘writing’ for Mills & Boon, compared her ‘literary works’ to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s beyond brilliant Sherlock Holmes in terms of style.
Whilst Sir Arthur initially struggled to find a publisher, he was eventually accepted for publication of his first work featuring Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson, A Study in Scarlet, aged 27 in November 1886. He went on to have a career that deservedly brought him fame and fortune and remains loved by millions.
Sarah, Duchess of York, meanwhile, has lived off her royal name, associated with crooks, taken loans from paedophiles including Jeffrey Epstein (and presumably not repaid them) and now thinks herself a top-drawer author. Here, indeed, is a woman clearly having a laugh (and being deservedly laughed at) and that she declared her books to be a cross between “Sherlock Holmes and Peaky Blinders” is just further evidence of how delusional she truly is.
Elsewhere late last week, came further revelations that on top of her having taken loans and other benefits from the croaked paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, one of the dimwitted dunce formerly known as Sarah Ferguson’s “billionaire associates” has been accused of “bankrolling a sex trafficking ring” in a lawsuit in California.
Featured in the Daily Mail on 19th March, Daniel Bates revealed:
“Trammell Crow, 72, who Sarah Ferguson has reportedly struck up a friendship with, is alleged to have financed the enterprise which led to two women being abused.”
“The Texan property tycoon and environmental philanthropist, who is worth £6 billion ($7.3 billion, €6.8 billion or درهم27 billion), is accused of a string of lurid claims in the court papers filed in California.”
“The lawsuit was filed by two women, Julia Hubbard and Kayla Goedinghaus against Crow and his associates in a court in November. They claimed that the ring was run by a man called Richard Hubbard with the ‘with the essential financial assistance and influence’ of Crow.”
“Fergie and Crow are said to have bonded over their shared interest in environmental issues. Their friendship was first reported at the beginning of the month.”
“The lawsuit claims that Crow used ‘force, threats of force, fraud, or coercion to compel Hubbard and Goedinghaus to engage in commercial sex acts.’ The case was filed under laws governing racketeering and it claims that the defendants ‘conspired together’ to commit offences including human trafficking. The women claim that Crow forced the alleged victims to take drugs like Xanax ‘in order to force them to participate in sex acts.’”
“It is alleged that Crow was ‘key to the venture’s existence and long running success’ as he invested in it.”

This morning on Twitter, Matthew Steeples asked: “In comparing her tawdry bonkbuster books to Sherlock Holmes, has grifter Sarah, Duchess of York shown herself to be beyond bonkers?” By 11:30am on Saturday 25th March 2023, the majority of respondents had taken the view: “Yes; off her merry rocker.”Responding to the poll, Garney Nicholls was very direct in his views about Sarah, Duchess of York. He didn’t share his thoughts on her comparing herself to Sherlock Holmes, but he did state: “She was a tart when she was a teenager, mummy ran off with a polo player and daddy had it way in a plane I once read. Just ‘cos they got money, don’t mean they bad cop, bad lot.”The latest drivel from Sarah, Duchess of York (written ‘with’ someone named Marguerite Kay) is due out on 30th March 2023. It is titled ‘A Most Intriguing Lady’ and is published by Mills & Boon. The grifter’s ‘novel’ is priced at £14.99 and she has been out doing the rounds comparing it to Sherlock Holmes and ‘Peaky Blinders.’ The loon is clearly having a laugh (or just, as most would actually rightly assume, off her merry-rocker).Sleazy looking billionaire Trammell Crow has brought further shame on ‘Feckless Fergie’ and her non-sweating hubby Prince Andrew after being accused of being involved in sex trafficking. One is left asking: “What was it about this creepy looking creature that first attracted the former Sarah Ferguson to him?”
The Weird Words of “Greedy” and “Needy” Freeloader Wannabe Sherlock Holmes Sarah, Duchess of York… They Get Weirder By The Week…
Given the live-in ex-wife at Royal Lodge, Windsor of supposedly skint ‘Randy Andy’ – a non-sweating nuisance who got his long-suffering relatives to pay a supposed sum of circa £12 million to Virginia Roberts Giuffre, a woman he has previously claimed to have met – is in on a world tour to prattle on to anyone who pays to listen, perhaps she should be reminded of her own weird and even weirder warblings. They number:
Of sex, her and goats: “One of the worst headlines said 82% [of the population] would rather sleep with a goat than Fergie. It’s never left me.”
Of her writing novels and her style: “Sherlock Holmes meets Peaky Blinders.”
Of the royal family: “They tried to put the little redhead in a cage.”
Of her own family: “I do believe in family unity. I think forgiveness is key.”
Of the Duke of York: “A good man… In 1986, I married a very good man. Zip.”
Of whether she might remarry Prince Andrew: “Oh bless your heart, no. I think we’re great as we are.”
Of supporting her disgraced ex-husband financially: “I will always be there [for Prince Andrew].”
“When Andrew went through a hard time, I used to be able to throw it to ‘The Boss.’”
“Since he stepped back [from royal duties] he doesn’t actually take taxpayers’ money and I’m in a position where I can support him and the rest of the family through my work. And I’m really pleased and proud to do that.”
“All I will say is that for many years now – it started with Budgie the Little Helicopter – I’ve really pushed to look after my girls and to contribute to the York family life.”
Of where she and the Duke of York will end up living in the future: “Honestly, I operate from living in the present. You never get complacent and it makes for a better day because you never get disappointed, then. You look at life and you go, we can adapt, we can be flexible.”
Of whether she might remarry someone else: “I think I’ve got too much baggage. I look at today and if suddenly I find love again, well, that’s another bonus, isn’t it?”
Of her daughters Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie: “Exceptional… I love my girlies, I’m so proud of them. They are exceptional children… If mum’s OK, they’re OK.”
“My daughters come first in my life, they always have. Because I lost my mum so early, I’m subconsciously very present with them. When I brought them up, I always left my problems at the door. Your problem is not their problem – it’s not their fault. We laugh together a lot. We are just very close.”
Of her grandchildren: “I’m ‘Super Gran’… When my grandchildren see me, they immediately laugh because they know I’m going to be up to something, up to no good somewhere.”
“Every time I think about about co-parenting and co-grandparenting and about divorce, marriage and all these different things, I still come back to the principle that the sun will come up tomorrow, and be grateful, just get on with it.”
Of the late Queen Elizabeth II: “For me, she was more a mother than my own mother. Aren’t I the luckiest person alive to have had that great honour? When I was with her, I used to say: ‘I can’t believe it. People wait and put on their best dress to have an audience with you, and I’m wandering around the garden in wellies!’”
“For the whole nation, for the world. Steadfast, consistent, iconic. [She had an] extraordinary ability to put someone at ease. I still now think it was such an honour [to have known her].”
“During the last three years, her poor son [was] going through such a tumultuous time… And I think HM was very relieved I could help her with him, so we became even closer, then.”
“I’m so lucky. All my life, I was lucky enough to know ‘The Boss,’ HM. Like the nation and the world, she was always there. It was like having a hand at your back. It just made you always strive for being better and trying to be better, learning from her, whenever you were with her just taking everything she said as a memory. She was such an incredible legend for us all.”
Of the late Queen’s corgis: “They’re very good boys, they’re very gentle. I think they knew that they weren’t to jump up and be naughty. They used to sit and watch the racing with her. And when you give them a biscuit, they don’t snatch. They’re very special, they’re national treasures.”
“They really make me laugh and the follow me around. Sometimes I break a little ‘biccie’ – a digestive biscuit – in the same way the Queen broke it into little pieces, and give it to them and tell them to remember their boss.”
Of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex: “I have been judged all my life, and I have no judgment on the Sussexes.”
“It must be hard for Meghan and can I relate to her. I believe she is modern and fabulous. She was famous before. She is great. Why can’t Meghan be great? Why can’t she be celebrated? I have been in Meghan’s shoes, and I still am. There’s always a twist of negativity and it just gets so sad and tiring… I abhor bullying and I feel desperately sorry for the pain they must be going through.”
“I believe very strongly that I have absolutely no judgment on any other person’s life, and I look at how much she [Meghan] loves him [Harry] and loves the children and gives him a love that he’s never had before. That’s how I look at it… The most important thing is, Diana would be so very proud of Archie and Lili. She would have adored every moment of it.”
Of King Charles III: “It’s incredible what he’s done for the environment. He was a trailblazer and many years ago, everybody said: ‘What’s he talking about?’ But he’s right. I’m a great believer and supporter of him, as I am of the Queen Consort.”
Of herself and her life: “I have been in the gutter.”
“I’m a brilliant mother. The best mother.”
“I don’t believe that any single person has the right to judge another person. I’m not in a position myself to make any judgments.”
“I’m very steadfast and stoic… I won’t let anyone down. I’m very loyal.”
Being rather wishy-washy: “The most important thing is that the sun will come up tomorrow and the day will move on.”
Of food, family and dining: “As long as it is hot, wet and goes down the right way, it’s fine with me.”
“With every smell, I smell food. With every sight, I see food. I can almost hear food. I want to spade the whole lot through my mouth at Mach 2. Basta!”
“We all sit round the table and eat together. Andrew and I believe in total parent unity. We’re best friends.”
On the coronation of King Charles III: “Well I’ve decided the best thing about British around a coronation – although I’ve never been to one – I think we should, I should set up a tea room at the bottom of the drive with bunting and cakes.”
“Never presume, never assume. I don’t know. But I’ll be there at the end of the drive with a cup of tea if I’m not there.”
Of wanting to be a television star: “I would quite like to go on Dancing With The Stars. I would like somebody to teach me to tango. I do know the show and my children would be so proud of me.”
On Americans: “I divorced, went to America, wrote a book, went on Oprah and did 12 years as the longest running spokesperson of Weight Watchers. I looked to America to support me and to help me and I really can’t thank the American people enough for what they gave me and what they did for me.”
Of when she decided she wanted to bag a royal: “I met [Prince Andrew] when I was 12, and I said: ‘I’m going to marry him.’”
Of marriage, divorce and work: “I left my marriage knowing I’d have to work. I have.”
“I didn’t want a divorce, but had to because of circumstance.”
“I wish we’d never got divorced. He and I both wish we’d never divorced, but we did. I wish I could go back and be the bride again, but I can’t.”
Of her many, many mistakes: “I felt that I ostracised myself by my behaviour, by the past, by living with all the regrets of my mistakes, that I sort of wore a hair shirt and beat myself up most of the day thinking and regretting why did I make such a mistake. Why have I made so many mistakes?”
“You look at the devil in the face, which you do. Then you forgive, and you say: ‘OK, I’ve made almost a mistake that will never be forgotten,’ and forgive.”
“I think the obstacles are the way, as opposed to in the way. I feel very strongly that I completely and utterly own my very naïve self and made endless different wrong decisions, whatever they may be, but in the end, it’s got me to today as an author. I’m a person in my own right, I’m Sarah.”
“I was so out of control with desperation… I was looking for quick fixes in the places I wouldn’t normally look… I’ve been a huge overtrusting, idiotic, stupid woman that went to look for the perfect situation, and that’s all I can say really.”
“I’ve done the work to get to myself. I’ve done masses of mental therapy. I probably reached to the wrong places and the wrong people and made, as you call it, mistakes. I don’t call them mistakes. I call them enormous learning curves.”
Desperate, as ever, for attention, there appears to be no opportunity that Sarah, Duchess of York will miss in her quest for constant publicity. Even the late Queen’s dogs have to be dragged out for a bit of personal profiteering courtesy of ‘Hello!’ magazine.The decidedly dodgy duchess appeared in another article recently that was shared on social media. It was titled: “Duchess dishes the dirt!” and is indeed representative of how tawdry and tacky and tastleless this tittle-tattler truly is. Shame on Sarah, Duchess of York.In January, Omid Scobie, the pugnacious pillock PR peddler for the Duchess of Sussex revealed that the ‘Duchess of Deviancy’ had moved into the world of NFTs and would be selling digital works “by established and emerging artists.” Is there any medium that will escape “the new world” of this tedious toerag?On Thursday 20th August 1992, the ‘Daily Mirror’ shared what they called “the pictures they didn’t want you to see.” In them, a topless Duchess of York was shown having her toes sucked in the South of France by a Texan millionaire named John Bryan. Of the incident, the ‘Mirror’ later reported: “Royal writer Richard Kay claimed in the ‘Daily Mail’ that he received a message via pager from Princess Diana the night before the photos hit the newspaper stands. Diana’s message was simple: ‘The redhead’s in trouble.’”
As noxious nonce Ghislaine Maxwell’s batshit bonkers brother Ian Maxwell bizarrely bangs on about the ‘murder’ of Jeffrey Epstein on an obscure San Francisco news channel, Matthew Steeples suggests this desperado would do better to learn the art of silence
As she rots in the clink, further evidence comes that Ghislaine Maxwell’s brother is getting increasingly desperate. This week, illustrating he isn’t being taken seriously elsewhere, Ian Maxwell turned to an obscure San Francisco news channel named KRON4 to tell yet more yarns about his mucky madam sex fiend sister.
In comments, subsequently shared only by the now little read website MSN, Mr Maxwell supposedly told KRON4’s Vicki Livakis:
“She wishes she had never met Jeff Epstein, and because the havoc that relationship has caused, not just Ghislaine, but really everybody that came in touch with him.”
“Basically, it was a stitch up from after Jeffrey Epstein died in US government custody when Bill Barr was Attorney General.”
“The only person to actually take the fall is Jeff Epstein, and he’s dead of course.”
“We don’t really know, the extent of what happened [on the night of 10th August 2019 at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York]. There, his own family thinks he was murdered. My sister thinks he was murdered.”
“If there are other people that have not yet come into the prosecution’s orbit, and who may be powerful people and don’t wish to be involved in this, somehow that they would find it. An ability to murder my sister or cause her to have an accident that looks like an accident but isn’t.”
“We are her family. We love her, we miss her, and we will support and defend her.”
Bizarrely also, Brian Basham, we can today reveal that the PR peddler the deviant daughter of the pension pot plunderer became so reliant on to push out piffle on her behalf prior to her conviction, has gone remarkably quiet in recent months. He appears to have given up on the paramour of his pen and left the donkey work to Ian and Kevin Maxwell instead.
In spite of threatening to confront me at the 2022 edition of CrimeCon in London (and then being a Cowary Custard no-show), Mr Basham seems to have given up on Twitter. Though not exactly popular there – a tittle-tattling spinner during the era of the British Airways ‘Dirty Tricks’ campaign against the equally rambunctious Sir Richard Branson’s Virgin Atlantic – has not tweeted since 2nd July 2022 and not replied to a tweet since 14th September that year also.
Of this development, I today ask:
Is Brian Basham still ‘working’ and is he in the pay of Ghislaine Maxwell?
Has Basham been fired by the Maxwell family or did he quit before he was pushed?
Does Basham still believe in the innocence of the convicted criminal sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell?
Has Basham had an epiphany and realised that the wicked woman he so enthusiastically supported is actually just a monstrous sex trafficker and a boob groping audacious abuser?

Brian Basham (left) is a man who previously had no qualms about defending the sex fiend Ghislaine Maxwell – a batshit bonkers bisexual woman whose nefarious activities with the croaked Ponzi scheming paedophile Jeffrey Epstein resulted in the ruination of the lives of countless young girls and boys even. Mr Basham has been remarkably quiet in recent months. One is left wondering: “Why?”Mr Basham isn’t exactly popular on social media. On Twitter, he has just 240 followers in spite of following 57 accounts also and having previously shared rather a lot there.After the deservedly respected journalist and author John Sweeney shared a “current list of people who don’t like me” in 2020, Brian Basham attempted to belittle him by suggesting him to be an alcoholic before adding he “despised” rather than “disliked” him. He added: “I despise you for coating your investigation with the slime of click bait untrue sensationalism.”
The Truth & The Lies About Visitors To Little Saint James (AKA ‘Paedo Island,’ ‘Island of Sin’ and ‘Orgy Island’)
Jeffrey Epstein liked to call his island home ‘Little Saint Jeff’ rather than Little Saint James. He also owned the adjoining island of Great Saint James. Both remain for sale and though the price was £94.5 million ($125 million, €113.8 million or درهم459.1 million) in March 2022, it has now been revised to “price upon request.”
Rumours abound as to what went on the ‘Islands of Sin’ and false lists of names continue to do the rounds on social media. An analysis of such follows below:
Who has most definitely visited the ‘Paedo Islands’…
The following are confirmed to have been on the islands. This does NOT mean that they participated in anything nefarious, though, of course, several amongst their number have been convicted of exactly such:
Miles and Cathy Alexander – who ran the islands’ management for the since croaked paedophile between 1999 and 2007 and who later claimed: “Our job was about discretion.”
Prince Andrew.
Ehud Barak.
Per Bloomberg.
Jean-Luc Brunel (deceased).
Naomi Campbell.
David Copperfield.
Alan Dershowitz.
Clementine Hambro.
Stephen Hawking.
Victim Virginia Roberts-Giuffre.
Lawrence Knauss.
Adam Perry Lang – who, for a time, was Epstein’s chef and who is now known as a “celebrity chef” in California.
Lord Mandelson and his partner Reinaldo Avila da Silva.
Ghislaine Maxwell.
Victim Sarah Ransome.
Claudia Schiffer.
IT contractor Stephen Scully – who has identified various famous names he supposedly spotted whilst working there.
Kevin Spacey.
Jes Staley and his wife Debbie.
Leslie Wexner.
Who may or may not have visited the ‘Paedo Islands’…
The following are often listed amongst those “rumoured” to have visited. Some names suggested are more far-fetched than others. These people may or may not have actually visited, but these people have neither confirmed nor denied either way:
Enemim.
John Glenn.
George Mitchell.
President Obama.
Itzhak Perlman.
Roger Stone.
Chrissy Teigen.
Chris Tucker.
Oprah Winfrey.
Who has been accused of visiting but publicly denied having been to the ‘Paedo Islands’…
These individuals have been very clear in their comments about accusations they visited Little Saint James:
President Bill Clinton – who Virginia Roberts Giuffre recalls seeing there, but who has denied ever visiting.
Rosie O’Donnell – who went as far as to say “f**k no” when asked.
Kathy Griffin – who responded to suggestions by Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers that she’d been there with comments that included: “YOU GUYSSSSS? Ok, I guess I just gotta #laugh #Ridiculous… STILL WITH THESE NUT JOBS…I know. I know. I guess I just gotta laugh.”
Chelsea Handler – who has, however, admitted to having had dinner with Epstein at his New York ‘Paedo Palace.’
Who has been falsely accused of visiting the ‘Paedo Islands’…
These peoples’ names regularly do the rounds as having visited, but though they have not publicly responded, evidence suggests they did not actually visit:
President Donald Trump – who did, however, fly on Epstein’s ‘Lolita Express’ and who spent time with him in Palm Beach on multiple occasions most definitely.
