i want to say australia, the uk and japan are the top three, tnetatively in that order, but you could probably fit klanada in there instead.

        According to Roberto Saviano, who has lived with armed guard for protection from the Camorra mafia because of his reporting, London is the most corrupt city on earth.

          I maintain that if prince andrew had just stuck to preying on vulnerable British women and children like the rest of the aristocracy do when they cheat on their wives then any investigation would have been squashed early and the press would still faun over him.

          Prince Andrew's life story reads a bit like Dracula in that it was leaving his homeland that caused his destruction

              well Dracula starts as a classic gothic horror story where the hero goes into the castle of a gothic monster. Then the monster follows him home and in this new unfamiliar environment he is ultimately destroyed.

              For the analogy England is the feudal country where prince Andrew is lord and master untouchable and the new country he goes to to prey on women would be america

      Lmao what, they're not even privatizing it to the national bourgeoisie? How are British people dumb enough to be okay with selling it to the fucking Americans

        because Britain is very corrupt and it's all done behind closed doors with little media attention. All the British public are aware is that things have been steadily getting worse.

        You might as well ask why Italians are ok with the mafia disposing of toxic waste by dumping it in farmland
