It was a massive theme of the 2024 US Presidential fight - and a scandal that swept across America like a medieval plague.

The Epstein Files

And rightly so. The now dead paedophile financier, who came from nothing to build a billion dollar empire that would make Croesus green with envy and a Roladex to rival the entire back catalogue of Time Magazine's power list, leaves in his wake a trail of blackmail, jeopardy, extortion, industrial sex abuse, murder and mayhem.

So when appointing the new UK Ambassador to America - the most critical diplomatic duty on earth - at what point did they decide Epstein's former self-styled ‘Best Pal' would be the right man for the job?

It is utterly astonishing, and proffers answers that are equally as disturbingly eyebrow raising as the next.

So let's go through them!

Buckle up.
