...The fact that he is getting off scot free....

Could I just belatedly interject...what do you mean by 'scot free'?

But a new book by the economist Douglas McWilliams, The Flat White Economy, suggests that hipsters, and the ecosystem surrounding them, represent the future of British prosperity. Not only are they greener and more ethical than the rest of us, but the industries in which they work are driving our economy. We mock them at our peril.London were reported to be working in the flat white economy

Perhaps fittingly the book has had a choppier passage to publication than your average pop-economics number. The chairman of the Centre for Economic and Business Research (Cebr), and a free-market conservative who has advised George Osborne, McWilliams was in the news last week when he announced that he was taking a sabbatical in the wake of allegations that he smoked crack cocaine at a house in Hornsey. It was unfortunate timing, a fortnight before the book’s release

He, McWilliams has written a book about the 'Hipster economy', not surprised he endorses this 'entrepreneurial' subculture.

on that basis you would not have been surprised to hear that biographers of hitler endorsed hitler. writing a book about something does not by itself mean you endorse that thing.

Apparently no clear confirmation I'd say it was - bottom photo DC 1988.

Sorry, but much as I'd love it to be I've had reliable confirmation that it's not him. This from someone with a good memory that was there.

Culture Secretary John Whittingdale caught in prostitution scandal

These revelations mean that David Cameron has questions to answer on whether he knew of Whittingdale’s relationship with prostitutes when he appointed him Culture Secretary in May 2015.
John Whittingdale has questions to answer over whether the possession of this story by a number of media publications ever influenced his political actions as Culture Secretary and when he was Chair of the Culture, Media and Sports Committee. In September 2011, then Liberal Democrat MP Adrian Sanders stated that Whittingdale had warned MP’s against calling Rebekah Brooks to testify before the Culture, Media and Sport Committee, because of the risk of their personal lives being investigated. Whittingdale strongly denied this claim
This is the first installment of a developing story. Byline has many more revelations to follow on the story and why it has so far been hidden from the public view, so stay tuned.

Whittingdale's half brother, Charles Napier (not to be confused with the actor of the same name who appeared in a couple of Russ Meyer films) was sent down for pederasty.

What a family.

do you know, I'm starting to suspect these people hire people they know they have dirt on so that they are forever under control. Until they aren't and you throw them to the press to cover up whatever shit you've been up to this week
