Keir Starmer has said Andrew Mounbatten-Windsor should testify before the US Congress about his links to the late child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

The prime minister, who is in Japan for a meeting with its premier, Sanae Takaichi, was asked by journalists if the former prince should apologise to the disgraced financier’s victims and give evidence about what he knew about his crimes.

Mounbatten-Windsor, who was stripped of his titles last year amid the fallout from his friendship with the billionaire, features heavily in the latest tranche of Epstein files, released on Friday by the US justice department.

The king’s brother appears to be pictured crouching over a woman who is lying on the floor. The cache of documents also includes emails which indicate Mountbatten-Windsor invited Epstein to Buckingham Palace in September 2010, two years after he was convicted of soliciting girls as young as 14 for sex.

"should." Not bloody likely Evolve Dammit 15 hrs ago #1

I think it's especially unlikely because the entire roster of witnesses are magaworld's "Deep State" AZJonnie 14 hrs ago #2

Charles would send him to the tower. The king and Don are buddies. littlemissmartypants 14 hrs ago #3

I don't believe that's true. Charles is weak, and an inveterate diplomat, but he is not Trump's buddy. Hew looks down on Martin68 9 hrs ago #5

He's not going to incriminate himself. This is absurd. Martin68 9 hrs ago #4

I strongly suspect the point of the upcoming House investigation will be to try to show how the DoJ ignored and coddled Epstein until TRUMP finally had him apprehended and jailed, therefore he's the hero, and the DoJ had been hopelessly corrupt until 2025. IOW, it will turn out to not be a good-faith investigation to uncover the criminals, it's to blame Trump's enemies for not doing more, sooner, against Epstein, to further his "corrupt, weaponized DoJ" storyline.

Also the witnesses will be constantly put on the spot regarding why they never took any action against Trump despite accusations from a lot of unverified sources/tips/"Katie Johnson". They want the "Deep State" actors to have to go on record and say "we didn't act against Trump because we couldn't verify the allegations" so they can say "Ha, see, the DoJ never thought Trump did anything wrong". It won't matter that these two points are contradictory because the GQP Flying Monkeys don't give two shits about intellectual integrity, nor does any MAGA.
