Here is Victoria Beckham at a Vogue London party in 2009 where people like Tom Ford , an #Epstein neighbour, attended. Also there Peter Mandelson, and many others from that *cough* crowd
It takes up 2 floors. But there are others. When the papparazzi are flashing cameras at the shiny bird, what's going on upstairs at #36 ?
While the MSM continue to scratch their tiny heads about why David continues to fund her loss making company..
upstairs is a mysterious company called TRIANGLE .. they aren't too forthcoming about themselves on their website.. discrete, you know..
Metin Guvener is a partner in TRIANGLE
with connections to the FIRST FAMILY of Azerbaijan - the Aliyevs
"It’s no secret that the family of Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev likes to buy expensive buildings around the world, although it’s rarely clear where the money comes from
But the history of the at 39 Popa Soare Street in Bucharest’s old city is even murkier than usual,
involving offshore transactions, links to corrupt officials and organized crime, insider deals & a peculiar cult of personality for a dead leader.
Heydar Aliyev was a former KGB general & first secretary of the Communist Party’.. in Azerbaijan"
"According to property deeds, the house on Popa Soare Street is owned by Curzon Properties
Incidentally, Curzon is the name of a gate to Hyde Park in London, just across the street from another Aliyev posh property"

In 2016 David Beckham along w/ ..other celebs & City people found themselves in a bit of tax bother due to their investments in a controversial film investment scheme with Ingenious, a finance company selling tax-efficient investments in Hollywood films archive.ph/PeVT2
The model, however, wasn’t new. Taking advantage of a generous tax break enacted by then-PM Tony Blair’s New Labour government, .. groups with names like Little Wing and Ingenious sprouted up
"The funds helped bankroll Hollywood projects but the system was ripe for abuse. In some cases, film budgets were artificially inflated to create a loss on paper, enabling investors to claim greater tax repayments; money claimed to have been spent on development or production
was just shuffled back and forth among various offshore accounts. The founders of Little Wing, for example, were found guilty of investment scam and sentenced to lengthy prison terms...
Other groups, including Ingenious, have successfully appealed charges of tax avoidance. The company remains an active investor in film, recently backing Oscar-winner Judy and the Oliver Stone-directed documentary JFK Revisited: Through The Looking Glass.
The U.K. sale-and-leaseback scheme was eventually shut down by the U.K. government in 2006.
Phil Hunt, CEO of London-based Head Gear Films knows the model well: “That deal is a great deal because you’re making money even if you lost money. … That’s how it used to be ..”
So,
Little Wing went to jail and Ingenious are still trading.
""Unusually, the tribunal judge said that he had reached his conclusion with 'misgivings and reluctance'," reports the Times [about the Ingenious case]"

So, this story about Oxford Street has been doing the rounds creating 'debate' and some interesting commentary. We'll get to that.
But first, The FT did a rather revealing piece :
"How Oxford Street was overrun by sweet shops"
Some excerpts: archive.ph/yc5Ug
"London’s premier shopping destination has suffered a triple hit from Covid, high business rates and lax registration rules"
"since the onset of the C19 pandemic, Oxford Street has become barely recognisable. Footfall has declined almost 60 % compared w 2019
The biggest change has been the rapid influx of brightly lit shops selling colourful American sweets, from Jawbreakers to .. Sour Patch Kids. "
