Over two months on it doesn't look like he's going anywhere for a while and he may even get his state funeral after all.

Heaven help us.

But of course, if he says he didn't know, he probably didn't know.
I have the same opinion of David Attenborough. I gather that Savilles activities were well known and ignored by those who worked with him.
Substantiate that statement with some sort of evidence - or lets start calling all old men peados ... :hmmm:

Attenborough has had loads of senior roles at the BBC, up to an including controller of BBC2 while Saville was there AFAIK.

Personally I think the day Attenborough is implicated this is the day I'm getting on my spaceship and leaving Earth for good :lol:

He's already wrapping himself in the flag of Ukraine, with a blue and yellow light show in Downing St.
Or is it another party?

It's quite applicable in recent and current times.
