God this is the biggest none story ever. If he was involved in a Nazi role play scene then what does that prove? It just shows that he has some guilt about his family past which he has sexualised. His court actions mearly prove that if you have money and position then you're simply above the law. Nothing new here. As there is no public interest here, surely this is just a case of one powerful man having a pop at another powerful man. Will anything good come out of this for the working man, no! | |||||

But... It was *not* a Nazi scene - it was proved in court, by means of testimony and evidence, not because he's rich, that it was not a Nazi scene. Even the NOTW knew it was not Nazi, because they had the Luftwaffe tunic in question to put the camera into it, so they knew it was not Nazi because they had looked at it. The people that said it was Nazi were the NOTW, who were telling lies, and Woman E, who was paid by the NOTW to tell lies. The thing that I don't fully understand with this case is the way that people identifying as BDSMers have accepted the NOTW account as true, when that is the paper that has been telling lies about us for decades.

I was not likening you a con man. I am saying you are gullible if you think they would turn down a lucrative booking from a millionaire because of his political views. In fact it must be the only job in the world where you can chastise a customer you don't like. ho ho ho

I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt that they have the common sense to do business without political prejudice and tell you differently to save earache. Unusually optimistic and giving for me. "Honesty is the most offensive thing in the world." | |||||

So that's a "no" then? And returning to the programme, I also found it biased and ill-informed. I almost laughed out loud during the scene when the 'intrepid' reporter was trawling the (few remaining) sex shops of Soho whilst talking about the, according to him, secretive and undercover world of sadomasochism. What decade are we living in, I wondered.

That's very generous of you, but I'm sure you underestimate any influence that my opinion might have. However, I don't really think it's quite proper to debate the integrity of the ladies in question, certainly not on a public website. My fault I am sure for asserting it in the first place.

Oh really? managed to opinionate your way into Under 35 munches yet? I bet not. There's no sensible reason why a pro domme should take a client's polticial stance into consideration when making a booking. I am sure you disagree. I don't know these ladies, no but if I did I wouldn't speak for them and I wouldn't insinuate they're some kind of personal apparatchiks for my morals.

I guess she might find that poliical stance so abhorrent to her personally that she would not want to have anything to do with that client I'd have thought that was a sensible (and understandable) postion to take

Do you think they even know 99% of their client's political stance? "Honesty is the most offensive thing in the world." |
