To support the Duke of York

[LadyLanka]

Just that.
Although he is being asked the wrong questions.

lookatthebabypenguin, Prince Andrew hasn't been accused of rape or abuse.

Does he need your support? After all, he's got 10,000 men.

You’re on your own.

he is accused of non consensual sex with a 17 year old

Is the punchline going to be that you mean the one on the High Street that does a decent pie & chips?

Because that's the only sort of Duke of York I'd support.

she claims she was coerced into having sex with him,
i am inclined to believe him

There should be a correct process... and this isn't it

I agree, he shouldn't be talking to the media about it.

But as he has, hes opened himself up to public opinion on what he has said.

YABU

He's made a massive misjudgement doing this interview- it's just simply opened a whole new cans of worms and very uncomfortable questions!

Ah the subsequent posts are exactly what I anticipated and only go to confirm my suspicions about this site.
However, we are all permitted to have our own opinions.

I'd support him if he fucked off independently of his Mum and the British state. Although that would probably mean working with the Saudis so maybe not.

I'd also support him owning up to his shit behaviour and dobbing his mates in too.

if your suspicions about this site is that it generally support women who say they have been raped, dislikes rape apologists and likes healthy debate - you are spot on

I'd tell what I really think but seeing as the Royal Family have gone all 'where there's blame there's a claim' lately I think I'd probably better keep my opinions to myself.

He knowingly stayed with and kept up contact with, a convicted paedophile.

If he was my relative I would be going no contact because of this lack of judgment. We know he did this. Even if be did nothing else he is a vile human being with no compassion for the victims of his 'friend'.

@LadyLanka Hi Fergie!! 👋

OP maybe you could clarify exactly what you support him in 🤷‍♀️

He can do no right, ever!
what with one thing and another.

This. 100%

Another one saying you are on your own OP.

Didn't know the Queen was a mumsnetter
Well quite.

Liz, if that's you, can MNHQ have a Royal Warrant?

I believe him - his denials are so ham-fisted and conceited that they smack of truth.

Also, he is not concealing the fact he is a twat. He's not the first and he won't be the last to be taken in by a paedo.

Confirmed what you thought?
What’s that then ?
That not everyone supports a lying ,fucking slug?

He is beyond stupid. How on earth does the idiot think this interview would help his case ! Let’s see his security staff’s time sheets and work logs for March 10th at Pizza Express in Woking 😃

Where is the healthy debate?
There is a lot that does not add up. I am 100% sure that Epstein was guilty as charged, surely his suicide proves this?
I just do not think it is plausible that the allegations are true.

tbh i imagine an awful lot of people never intended to believe him in the first place
