    Why is this the thing the country cares about bascally some guy did an onlyfans with someone of legal age? Is it creepy? Yup that’s a huge age gap. But looks like it’s had the nation on tenter hooks Reddit’s UK sub put a megathread up for what? Other than being the usual news outlet suckups they’ve turned that sub into. I havn’t paid attention to it but noticed the rags were full of this like some sort of whodunnit that they seemed to have a greasy pact for.

        More likely that the economy is at the point of collapse. The mortgages story is the tip of the iceberg. UK’s value abroad has gone into freefall. Country’s economic value is at lowest point in entire history. No one in press or mainstream media reporting this.

        Yup. You do get the feeling that whenever something like this is being broadcast ad nauseum something else is afoot that they don’t want us to see.

      Why is this the thing the country cares about

      Because The Sun has run it on their front page four 4 days now and the coverage has been amplified by the rest of the Murdock outlets. They hate the BBC. The BBC News then had to run it front-and-centre to avoid it looking complascent/covering up. Meanwhile the mystery-identity angle sent social media into overdrive. It was a perfact storm.
