🕵️♂️📂💷When Ed Davey calls for a public inquiry into the swirling social soup of Jeffrey Epstein, Prince Andrew, and Peter Mandelson, you can almost hear the sound of another mahogany table being ordered at taxpayer expense.
Because in Britain, when in doubt… we inquire. 📜🇬🇧
And when we inquire? We assemble wigs, witnesses, and well-paid legal minds to produce a 4,000-page PDF that nobody reads but everybody references.
Meanwhile, critics point to the ongoing and past inquiries into grooming gangs and other national scandals and ask: what exactly did we get? Years of testimony. Millions spent. Headlines. Then… recommendations. More reviews. Possibly a strongly worded paragraph.
So what would this new inquiry give us? Closure? Accountability? Or simply the deluxe, leather-bound Collector’s Edition of “Lessons Will Be Learned”?
🎭 The Great British Inquiry Industrial Complex
Let’s be honest. Public inquiries are the national equivalent of putting the kettle on during a house fire. 🔥☕
They signal seriousness. They radiate gravitas. They say, “Something must be done!”—while ensuring that nothing concrete happens until at least 2037.
We’ll have:
- Barristers billing by the blink
- Politicians expressing “deep concern”
- A media cycle that peaks in week one
- A final report so dense it could stop a tank
And by the time conclusions land, half the key figures will be retired, relocated, or reborn as podcast hosts.
Supporters argue it’s about transparency. Fair enough. If powerful figures brushed shoulders with monsters, the public deserves clarity. No sacred cows. No gilded exemptions. 🐄✨
But opponents see déjà vu. A process that drags. A bill that swells. A nation that sighs.
Because here’s the awkward truth: inquiries don’t deliver justice — courts do. Inquiries deliver theatre. Very expensive theatre. 🎟️
And yet… without scrutiny, suspicion festers. Without answers, trust rots. So perhaps the real question isn’t “Should we inquire?” but “Why does it always take a decade and a fortune to find out what we already suspect?”
🔥 Challenges 🔥
Are public inquiries vital instruments of democracy — or just velvet-gloved delay tactics?
Would this bring truth to light… or simply extend the saga into the next generation?
Are we demanding accountability — or just demanding paperwork? 📑😤

Is this about justice, politics, distraction… or all three?
