I would rather no interference or participation from No10 in this matter being as it regards No10.
Oh, that'll be impartial! Starmer's advisor -Morgan McSweeney might... might be sacrificed to save the PM's
skin, but I think his dwindling clique will just try to ride it out.

Meanwhile... The rabbit warren of Epstein's 'clients' continues to go deeper as a leading London-based
Barrister company suspends one of their own. Why would a middle-of-the-road lawyer of the Establishment
end-up flying on the Lolita Express? Not only that, they took their time on doing it!
Quote:Top London barrister suspended over Jeffrey Epstein linksArchived Standard Article:
'A barrister associated with a top London legal chamber has been suspended pending an investigation
after he was named in the Jeffrey Epstein files. Matthieu de Boisséson, a barrister at Littleton Chambers,
has had his membership at the chambers paused after emails surfaced showing communication with
Epstein. De Boisséson told the Standard he denies any wrongdoing.

It marks one of the latest developments in the ongoing international fallout following the release of more
than three million documents in the latest Epstein file drop earlier this week. A spokesperson for the law
firm told the Standard: “In light of recent information received, Chambers has suspended M. de Boisseson’s
Associate Membership pending a full investigation.”
The website for Littleton Chambers no longer includes an image of de Boisséson among its team.
According to emails released, de Boisséson was in contact with both Epstein and Jean-Luc Brunel, a
modelling scout accused of putting the disgraced financier in contact with various girls.
Correspondences go on for several years.
In one email from April 2015, the French lawyer suggests that Epstein meet with Jean-Luc to discuss
“the present situation, and perhaps explore the conditions of a way out. told Jean-Luc that I was not
willing to act as a lawyer but just as a friend, by expressing my views and suggestions on an entirely
confidential basis, [sic]” the email reads.
It is unclear what situation they’re referring to, but the chain goes on to discuss meeting in person, and
deciding on a place of “privacy” to do so. The emails indicate Epstein offering to reimburse the lawyer
for his travel expenses. In another email, Brunel writes to de Boisséson in French saying: “I’m going to
take care of my libido. Kyiv is a good clinic.” The lawyer responds: “Perfect! You’re doing a great job,
dear guru.” The pair then appear to discuss in French a woman who Brunel says “wants a child.”
Alongside emails, de Boisséson is also pictured in images released within the Epstein files.
In one image, de Boisséson is seen with a woman whose face is redacted, alongside the model scout.
Another image reportedly shows the French lawyer being served vodka in a bottle shaped like a rifle.
Responding to the Telegraph, de Boisséson downplayed the images saying they were taken “probably
in a restaurant, apparently not with ‘young girls’ but with unknown women, whose faces are redacted”.
Epstein was jailed in 2008 after pleading guilty to soliciting sex from girls, some reportedly as young as
14 before being released after 13 months. He was again jailed in 2019 and died while awaiting trial.
Brunel, who founded the model agency MC2 Model Management with Epstein's finances, has faced
allegations of misconduct since the late 1980s - but always denied wrongdoing.
It was back in 1988 that 60 Minutes ran a documentary that looked into abusive culture at Brunel’s agency.
Brunel was arrested in 2020 amid an investigation over allegations of sexual assault. He also died in his
prison cell in 2022. De Boisseson previously told The Telegraph: “In 2014 and 2015, neither Mr Epstein
nor Mr Brunel were accused of wrongdoings, to my knowledge,” he said, according to the outlet.
“I confirm, if necessary, that I have never been involved in any wrongdoing associated, years later, with
Mr Brunel or Mr Epstein.”...'
It's only an island if you look at it from the water.
