    Given Virgin have repeatedly failed in running trains over the last 30 odd years, I can’t wait to see how this turns out…

    Richard Branson is on a big AstroTurf PR tabloid inch buying jaunt following several recent exposé on apparent similarities between Branson and Jeffrey Epstein. This might be why he keeps emerging from his nonsense island to do photoshoots and hunt virgins enemies (like Eurostar)
