Deano - thanks for the link to the Jo Cox murder Exit from Brexit ( Series of 4 - but scope for a few more ! ) . Some very interesting hours of viewing there and many unanswered questions - took me back a bit to The Fugitive where we were always looking for the one armed man - here it's the guy with the limp who is remarkable similar to the non uniformed chap emerging from the police car.
It takes a fair bit to get my eyebrows raised but this achieved it!
I can't elaborate on that side of Epstein, john, but I think delving into the full activities of his social contacts (which include many celebs and people "of influence" in the world) may well be a can of worms for a long time to come. Maybe the lid will be nailed down!
Didn't the nice Mr Epstein use disparities between States for his 'purposes' - or was that just remarks by the scurrilous British Press?
What Brexit?
I note your personal views, john, about voting and it would indeed be a hell of an act of faith for any Brit to allow a bunch of foreigners in Brussels to have free rein with your Kingdom's destiny. Over here there are many who are wary of Federal Government and often feel secure in the thought of their own State's right to implement legislation, especially if that meets personal preference. For me one obvious downside is that it is intolerable, in the same country, to find oneself suddenly in breach of the law merely by crossing a State line whether , say, by importing a can of nationally retailed beer or having ammunition and your gun not kept apart aboard your car. Some things are even lawfully broken down at County level....for example running a brothel ("chicken ranch") in Nevada or the possession of personal marijuana in California.
Jo Cox was most certainly poking her nose into Offshore Tax Havens because, as a Labour MP, she most probably felt it was a way that the "more privileged" legally avoided taxation. Being a Socialist it was an obvious way to get into spotlights and presumably her contacts perhaps brought her access to the so-called Panama Papers and a veritable Pandora's Box of very sensitive info. Who knows what rich and powerful people she might have upset in the process.
A number of foreign people have died in Britain in circumstances which tend to point to a State Execution...but no convictions have ensued. I'll start with the 1978 case of dissident Bulgarian, Georgi Markov being poked with a poisoned umbrella on Waterloo Bridge. Then we have Alexander Litvinenko in 2006 (poisoned with radioactive polonium), Alexander Perepilichny in 2012 (poisoned with gelsium very likely disguised by intermixing with sorrell as a herbal flavor). Boris Berezovsky in 2013 (found dead in a locked bathroom with a ligature around his neck). Scot Young jumped to his death in 2014 . Then there are Sergei Skripal and daughter Yulia in 2018 ...they survived a chemical attack.
Many Corporate bosses move money offshore. Many donate to political organizations and even the Conservative Party! Some may have been ennobled as a result. For example I found billionaire Lord Ashcroft's description in Wikipedia to be fascinating. )
Finally, Paul1D ('cos I am quite sure other posters will by now have had enough of this topic) and without seeking to denigrate Richard D Hall, I suggest you view the website I have listed hereunder . It is a contribuion from the Hong Kong-based "South China Morning Post" which contains a somewhat different belief about the character of Thomas Mair (who has been blamed for attacking Jo Cox).

I’m not sure if it was covered in the clips I sent to you or an earlier vid he had done going into her questions in Parliament about offshore tax, etc.
Let’s narrow this down to one thing, just what was Jo Cox poking her nose into?
Personally I’m perplexed how the Brexiteer tories are going for this rather strange version of Brexit. It must work for them in that your question on tax on British dependencies remains off radar.
I don't think we are on the same wavelength here, Paul1D. You offer me "angles" about Brexit and EU taxation and then come back referring to JFK's assassination and follow on to several hours of YouTube opinion featuring the writer and RichPlanet TV personality, Richard D Hall who raises many questions over the veracity of the official version of events surrounding the death of Jo Cox MP in 2016. Mr Hall over the years has attracted fame, viewers and adherents to his lectures and conspiracy theories (including Madeline McCann's "disappearance"and UFOs. Presumably he has made a career (and money) from doing this. We also have people who , for a fee, will recommend what shares we should invest in and who often offer free advice which is frequently pointed to in these online Share Chats.
I'm sure that your Mister Hall would do well selling Snake Oil here in our Wild West. Sorry, Paul, but I prefer to stick with the Conspiracies surrounding the real meanings of the illustrations on our dollar bill, whether the Bilderbergers are representative of a new World Order or whether the Rothschild family have effectively manipulated histor for over 300 years.
Even more worrying is that we do not yet know who shot JR ! Have a Great Weekend, 'cos Monday's Stock Exchange could be very interesting.
Ok watch these and learn what happens when a politician plays with fire just like JFK did,

DJ you summed it up.
'there was good reason for the UK to be into the original "Common Market" (EEC) but when elements within the Community appeared to be pushing towards "federalization" of matters ( such as tax, military establishment, common law etc) ) I felt that such moves might be contrary to individual countries' notions of sovereignty whereby the tail starts wagging the dog.'
And that's why I voted out and why I would vote out again tomorrow - and why I would vote in tomorrow to the original Common Market.
"One needs an open mind and a lack of ignorance to sit and watch it all through though and comment after."
OK, Paul, but what if the article is incompatible with my beliefs and yet totally agreeable with your perspective? Do we then continue to slug it out on here and pee off all the other posters? I don't think so. Nevertheless I admit to being curious as to what tax and brexit "angles" you suggest I should peruse.

No it’s not to do with British dependencies but taxation and our membership of the Eu.

Paul1D - I would be most interested to follow your links , especially if they deal with aspects of Britain's Dependencies. The historic eviction of the Chagos Islanders puzzled me as is the status of the air bases in Ascension and Diego Garcia. At one time being a British subject did not necessarily allow someone from say Tristan da Cunha or St Helena to take up permanent residence in Bognor Regis but I understand from my former contacts that much changed after the then Liberal Democrat MP for Colchester got sufficient support to implement revised citizenship rules for these "overseas" subjects of Her Majesty. It doesn't seem to work the other way around though without maybe an awful lot of money or "clout" to settle in the Caymans, Turks & Caicos or maybe Bermuda.
Looks like Boris is struggling at the final hurdle with brexit but I'd still appreciate your "angle to brexit"even though, as you are aware, I identify with you all remaining in EU Membership (but the mistake was electing British MEPs who were all for leaving anyway and never attempt to change some of the crazier initiatives hatched in Brussels. Farage is about as much use as a laxative to someone with the "runs" .
Back to AAU and yet another positive RNS issued which so far has not done a lot for our sp except possibly prevented further falling.
John Major wanted to keep the City of London out of the EU, so thats revealing, it is of course a separate part of the UK.
Mind you the question you have asked, if you are interested, I can send you some youtube links to watch regarding all of this and an angle to brexit worthy of consideration.
Yes John...I note how skillfully you have separated EU and UK....but....
How come Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man are able to trade comfortably, as British Dependencies, with the rest of Great Britain as well as the EU and probably the rest of the world without anyone's concern about hard borders, WTA rules and all the impediments Boris and his opposite numbers across the waters seems to be arguing over? Please don't suggest that Eire and Euroland should be assimilated into GB. You might be a Brummie but you ain't no Borg (lolol).
