Greg, thanks very much for interviewing me; it was an enjoyable discussion. Your readers might find this documentary The Spider's Web, about Britain's off-shore tax-havens interesting. I'd say the whole film is essential viewing. I feature in it from 49 minutes, where the interviewer and me are harassed by Jersey's mafia-captured 'police-force' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=np_ylvc8Zj8&t=3207s
Ahh, Jersey. I sent 3 months there in 1981 doing an Zoo keeper internship at the Jersey Wildlife preservation trust. A Zoo brainchild of Gerald Durrell. Back then, I was too busy dealing with Neanderthal minded zoo brits to realise that that it was then, or soon to be, the home of ne’er do well gazzillionairs. BCk then the locals called themselves Jersey ‘Beans’, and the tourists were called ‘Grockals’. It was a lovely island full of very strange people, but that can be said of so many places. Especially, the British isles where i currently reside. I enjoyed your interview into it’s current happenings. 😳Many thanks!
I listened to the podcast and just read your article. Now I'm really interested in seeing the documentary. I have multiple streaming services and can't access any of the Storyville documentaries or BBC 4. Any suggestions?
I just have to say, it’s easy to mock and ridicule the Q wing of the Republican Party and just dismiss their beliefs out-of-hand as delusional ravings.
But consider this: look at how often child sex abuse enters the conversation. Clearly one element of this national and global problem of ultra rich people engaging in heinous activity includes their license to flout laws and morality. If you are born into super wealth, like royalty is, or if you get there on your own, like Cosby and Weinstein and Epstein, now you think you’re able to do whatever you want with impunity.
Goodbye morality. The Q people may not understand or explain it clearly, but they’re not completely clueless. You can’t just write off their story of the blood of innocents. The blood of innocents, and the mention of child sex rings in their story universe, is not without basis in fact.
I began writing an email to you, then decided to post it here.
Your investigation into shell companies is brilliant, just brilliant. Can’t stop reviewing this Jersey Off-Shores piece. Nice title.
Please excuse the non-stop rave reviews. I am just so thrilled to have a direct line into this extremely dark dirty subject which begs for attention.
You please me no end.
It’s so exceedingly clear that the filth from money laundering hiding in these off-shore (and on-shore: Delaware, Montana et al) shell company havens needs to be exposed.
The hideous-morality members of the super-rich class generally do not get their due. Epstein is one of the rare few. I am convinced he was off-ed by an associate because of blackmail material (kompromat) that he possesses. (who did the dirty deed?) I am equally convinced that his collection of blackmail material is tied to his wealth, à la Putin's coercive strategy for wealth accumulation.
The dirt and sleaze that drives the Republican Party, and Putin, is so needing of exposure. The dirt and sleaze hiding in shell companies: ditto. You are investigating both.
Your investigative journalism is unique, at least in my experience, wide-ranging, thorough, and rave-worthy.
Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you

This might be the Kernel of Truth in the Q-fuckery. People should be aware -- mad props for this important article
Thank you, Greg. Britain set up this system of tax evasion islands hundreds of years ago.

So far here’s what I have to say:
I’m not sending you enough money.
None of us are sending you enough money.
