Jimmy Saville was also a favoured celebrity of Margaret Thatcher, the former Tory PM, as it was reported that they had a “close, friendly relationship during the 1980s, which included Saville visiting her at Chequers, her country residence, on multiple occasions”.

(Saville’s charity work and his celerity popularity made him a magnet for politicians like Thatcher and also some others to try to leech of and so then try to benefit from his ‘fame’ and his assumed public popularity, his ‘charity’ work being an obvious cover to try to hide his unsavoury, despicable and salacious behaviour that he subjected young girls to).

The endorsement and acceptance of Saville by the British establishment that included Royalty , his employers at the BBC and also members of the then Tory UK government is something that is now glossed over by much of the media in all of their current reports on Prince Andrew’s friendship with Epstein , as in Epstein who like Saville, also sexually molested and sexually assaulted young girls and so both he and Saville were predatory paedophiles.

Andrew is now promoted as the black sheep of the family, as is Prince Harry also presented as this too , while other members of the royal family, especially King Charles, are all to apparently be seen as exemplary figures within the Royal family.

I mean King Charles, when a Prince, was also someone who committed adultery, and the person he committed adultery with is now the Queen………oh but let’s not go into that….as that is apparently now history, best forgotten and it appears to also be forgiven as well…

However let’s not forget how much the late Queen Elizabeth was also treated as if she was a model of virtue…she was revealed as being noted as someone in the Paradise Papers , as having invested roughly £10 million of her private Duchy of Lancaster estate in offshore funds, also her lawyers successfully lobbied Scottish ministers to exempt her private estates from a major green energy law in Scotland. This was achieved through a secretive procedure known as “Queen’s Consent,” which allows the monarch to see and influence legislation that affects her interests before it is passed.

Back to Charles’s old friend , Jimmy Saville.

On 10 March The Mirror newspaper posted on X that:

“Jimmy Saville appears in Epstein files in FBI documents linking him to Ghislaine Maxwell”

Remember rumours existed at the time about Saville that were ignored , and Saville was employed by the BBC, who were accused of ignoring complaints about him.

“Independent investigations and media reports following Jimmy Savile’s death in 2011 confirmed that the BBC repeatedly ignored rumours, complaints, and warnings about his sexual misconduct over several decades -as in a period that is said to represent between 20 to 90 years.

“Dame Janet Smith’s 2016 review found that Savile committed sexual assaults, including rape, on BBC premises from 1959 to 2006 which was 47 years, with many staff members aware of his inappropriate behaviour, indeed 72 people were sexually abused by Savile in connection with his work at the BBC between 1959 and 2006, including in the dressing rooms at Top of the Pops”.

“The Dame Janet Smith report (2016) found that the BBC had a “culture of fear” and a deferential attitude towards stars, which resulted in many staff members ignoring, failing to report, or laughing off rumours and complaints about Jimmy Savile’s sexual abuse”.

So then perhaps some people need to think more about what they are singing when they sing ‘God save the King”, as his past friendships and some of his close relatives behaviour surely make it imperative that he, as King, really does need to be saved……from himself…….based mainly on some of his unwise decisions on whom he choses to be friends with…….as to his family members well no one can be responsible for that, but the sense of privilege and the assumption that rules did not apply to royalty perhaps then could be a reason why Andrew is alleged to have done and his royal status gave him protection, as did Mummy, to allegedly behave in the way he did as far as the Epstein scandal is concerned.

(I have added alleged and allegedly as this is not my blog so I must be respectful and mindful of that, as one has to be careful to keep referring to this as being allegations, that as yet , have not been proven in a court of law in respect to Andrew, even with all of the published pictures, emails and quotes connected to the Epstein files.

( A reported settlement of roughly £12 million was paid by him, Andrew, to Virginia Giuffre in March 2022, the funds were reportedly, as in alleged to be, provided as loans from senior members of the Royal Family)
