says she can't come from countries beginning with 'I' that have green in their flag. He said: "I don't mind Canadians, Americans, Germans and Northern Europeans - what I like to call similar people. I don't think marrying an Eskimo is for me.

Basically nobody from Pakistan, India or Nigeria, but doesn't want to outright say it.

Slade has a daughter, Violet, with Sahara Sunday Spain, but is still looking for a male heir who has genetic similarity to one of his further paternal ancestors.

From wiki:

Slade has a child with American poet Sahara Sunday Spain, a daughter named Violet, born in 2021.[1] He has never met his daughter, however, he has acknowledged her existence. He is still looking for a male heir

He fucked them both off after find out he was having a girl.

This guy is a weapons grade Cunt.

He is also after a "good breeder" so he can have a male heir.

In return, the new Lady Slade will be paid £50,000-a-year to help run his sprawling 1,300-acre Somerset estate.

The candidate must also be able to do a lot of physical exercise, such as fast walking, and be able to swim.

There is no mention of the face anywhere, so gramps apparently likes to do it doggy style.

He said that he would have to marry a lady at least 20 years younger than him for tax reasons. "Death tax is 40 per cent and the only way I can pass the estate and art collection etc on is to leave it to the wife tax free who then disposes it to my distant relatives.

Could there be anything more romantic than helping an old fart avoiding paying his fair share of inheritance tax?

"Obviously the widow would receive a financial percentage for passing it on. This the only way left to get around inheritance tax."

Going out of your way to ensure you don't inadvertently help others even in death is a special type of evil.

£50k seems wildly low honestly. Other than that, and the eagerness to avoid paying taxes (rich behaviour), I don't really see the problem here lol

It’s probably enough to get what he wants though

At least he's listed the salary and not just put "competitive"!

He's 79, and looking to have a child with this potential bride. He says at least 20 years younger (meaning, no older than 59), but there aren't a lot of women in their 50s looking to have kids. Even in their 40s means it's risky.

Add on the many, MANY specific requirements, and it seems unlikely he will ever find someone. It actually reads like those fake job listings where they try to pretend they're looking, knowing that no one will ever meet the requirements. It doesn't even have the usual financial offer to attract the gold diggers.

Well, at least he's being honest about it

Cause we all know the worst part is the hypocrisy.
