Why did my post about Lester Piggot get removed?
He's was as famous in the UK for being jailed for the scale of his tax-evasion as he was for being a jockey. If his name is mentioned over here, it'll prompt the comments about that. I don't understand why adding that context would result in my post getting removed

| Piggot served just over a year for tax fraud in 1987, but Jeffrey Epstein is on these pages. Hmm... |
