I suppose it’s better than Pete Townsend’s claim to be downloading it for research.

Actually, it’s not even close.

Because Pete Townshend actually was an anti-pedophile activist for decades and was one of the people after Jimmy Seville. It is quite plausible that powerful parliamentarians linked with Seville would hire someone to hack Townsend’s computer.

Krugman though?

Not seeing it.

Pete Townshend has stated that he was abused as a young boy by a friend of this family. He’s written a few songs about his childhood experience, including “ROUGH BOYS”. This song appeared in his first solo album. He had written it originally for Roger Daltrey to sing with The Who, but Roger refused to sing it.
