Speaking of “What else is being covered up?”Yes, it's certainly horrific.
Kincora Boys' Home in Belfast, from which his mostly orphaned victims were chosen, was highlighted during the post mortem Savile investigations.
By most accounts it was like a pick 'n' mix boy store for powerful men for over 30 years. The staff and authorities were entirely complicit in enabling these men and covering up the crimes.
It wouldn't surprise me if Mountbatten's assassins also had his vile predatory activities in mind when they set that bomb in his boat.
It's relevant today because survivors are still struggling with the aftermath of their abuse. Our nation is particularly (or deliberately?) very poor at caring for victims of abuse so these men, like so many other other people struggle alone for the most part.
It's relevant because current members of the Mountbatten family are implicated in Epstein's pick 'n' mix abuse activities and in other similar abuses.
As far as I'm concerned, it's relevant also because our king was and is very close to these perpetrators and actually chose friends from amongst this vile cohort of abusers. Not only did he make them his friends, he also supported them when they were accused, rightfully, of abuse.
Everything possible was and is still done to cover up these horrifying abuses by powerful men. (In the UK, it's the default reaction when a victim of any preferred or privileged group comes forward.)
What else is being covered up?
How much impact has all this widespread covering up and lack of accountability had on the degradation of our country's values, standards, principles, morale...?
Here’s a little tidbit for everyone.
