Prince Andrew…

[Zonda_]

Just Andrew Windsor now.

He’s now to be addressed as Symbol Andrew.

[Explosive Newt]

Apparently they have allowed him to keep the title of Randy Andy.

I don’t think being stripped of your title Prince has a precedent though? It’s a fairly extreme kick.

[IanF]

Surely he’s now the artist formerly known as Prince (Andrew)

I know the book is out now, but the letchy old fucker has got away with so much so far that surely this is the precursor to something BIG coming out.

[Beany]

Rumours abound of private prosecutions up the wazoo now that he doesn't have the financial and legal clout of the royal family behind him.

It has to be, it's a bit of a big move so more evidence must be under the table.

Dave!

The final paragraph in the statement from the palace regarding victims of abuse would suggest they want it known they’re not buying his bullshit either.

[Rich B]

There’s a Prince Andrew Way near me, i wonder if it’ll stay called that…

[Delphi]

There was a time when he was one of the more popular royals too. Served in the Falklands War, shagged Koo Stark etc.

That's how they get away with it for so long. Gary Glitter was pretty popular once.

[ZedLeg]

Saville was a national treasure

[DeskJockey]

Rolf Harris was a beloved entertainer.

Well yes, famous people who turn out to be pedos get headlines and people don’t tend to advertise that they’re pedos.

[IanF]

He’s been arrested

I think Plod are being very clever - arrest him for potential impropriety in his role as Trade Envoy - giving away confidential info etc but then you have him for the other things...

[integrale_evo]

Hopefully he drags a whole load of others down with him

[Beany]

The police and prosecution services aren't really allowed to show that they're properly gunning for someone, but...well, it is his birthday, which I'm sure they're aware of.

I hope he was having a lovely birthday breakfast in his jammies, thinking about what a lovely day it was, when they knocked on his door and shattered that illusion.

Fun fact - the charges he's up for don't have an upper limit because parliament kinda forgot to do that (they're putting a new law in place that does, but it's not in effect yet). "Up to life imprisonment" sounds fun for the (alleged) noncey, (alleged) secret sharing twat.

Al Capone, innit.

I wonder if and who he might implicate? Imagine being fingered by the ex prince

Too soon?
