The times they are a changing. All he did was what thousands of others in his elite position of wealthy have been doing for centuries - he went to lavish parties and partied with lavish men and women. Immoral, maybe to some. Illegal, probably not (although the minimum age of an escort in the UK is 18, but nobody seems to have mentioned this - if she was trafficked and an escort, then he did commit a UK crime, but odd that this is not the topic ... )
Anyway, if you can say that in the last century, no army, navy officers, football teams, businessmen or stag party goers have enjoyed the occasional escort at a bar or party, then maybe he is a disgrace and should be treated as such. But, well, a lot of men do what he has done, and a lot of women are not "trafficked" but chose their profession. Not all escorts are coerced, kidnapped, drugged and raped. (eg, is
this "high-class" escort trafficked and coerced?). Many chose that lifestyle. As one "madam" once said to me (in a past life I worked for a company that did marketing for some of London's elite escort agencies ... I would have preferred not to, and left that company when I could afford to!) the reason they don't have male escorts is because most women that would use one are also happy to walk into a bar and flirt with the fittest man to bed him, but for many men on the other hand, this is not a viable option (although apps like Tinder are changing that) and if they want instant sex, they call an agency.
Maybe the world needs to change, but while it continues as it is, rich men will be rich men, and
some pretty women will still be more than happy to "party" with them
Maybe I am wrong about this, but as said before, he seems to be a scape goat for everything else that goes on in that high class society. We can pretend that it will all stop now he was caught and made to pay up.
#metoo movement is vitally important, but we must not forget that some people chose this lifestyle, and are now taking advantage of recent changes in attitude.
In the old days it was called blackmail...
