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

What are your suspicions of the site OP? Confused - are you one of those annoying individuals that always needs to adjust the narrative if disagreed with, to make it seem like you are the only sane one in the lunatic asylum and too good for all of this before you flounce off to avoid healthy debate?

I often find that if you are in the minority to this extent, it's probably you. I'd save your support for people you actually know, not those who wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire and eye up any underage daughters you might have. The man is vile. One minute the images are photoshopped entirely and he has experts on it, next minute no sign of them but he just can't recall. He's a terrible liar. My support lies with those who won't win this because he is a member of the RF. Strength to them in dealing with the vulgar injustice of that.

QEII’s boys keep making very poor judgements about whose company to keep.

The overwhelming ego that shone through just betrayed the fact this is a man who just cannot comprehend that his word would be treated with anything but utter acceptance. He either ignored advice or was incredibly badly advised to do that interview.

MarianaMoatedGrange · 16/11/2019 22:30

Oh yes the 'suicide' Hmm

PennyNotSoWise · 16/11/2019 22:30

Goady McGoadyface.

Where is the healthy debate?

If you wanted that, you could have started one properly. Instead, you wrote 2 sentences and sat back to watch the froth.

IfIShouldFallFromGraceWithGod · 16/11/2019 22:31

Suspicions of the site 🤔 pathetic

YouTheCat · 16/11/2019 22:32

Yes, indeed, the 'suicide'.

Oh yes, YANBU because he stayed with a convicted paedophile because he was too honourable. Wtaf?!?

*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.

Do you have a bit of a crush? 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

SaggySadSack · 16/11/2019 22:33

Fergie, is that you?!

Grimbles · 16/11/2019 22:34

You accept that Epstein was guilty as charged and support Andrew continuing his friendship with Epstein.

OK....

Moondancer73 · 16/11/2019 22:34

Epstein's suicide? 🤣 you really think his death was suicidal? Hilarious

CharitySchmarity · 16/11/2019 22:35

Prince Randy Andy is over 60.

He's 59.

Sunsoottitsoot · 16/11/2019 22:36

I love that he claimed he doesnt sweat.

Dodithedog · 16/11/2019 22:37

When I turned it on I was rooting for him. Sadly, even for a royalist like me, it was downright obvious he’s a big fat liar out to save his own skin. Very sad.

Gardai · 16/11/2019 22:37

So OP, would you stay in the house of a convicted paedophile if you were a millionaire and could well afford a hotel ?
He wasn’t there for shits and giggles.

Puzzledandpissedoff · 16/11/2019 22:38

Support a man who thinks it appropriate to describe a sex offender's actions as "unbecoming"?

Er, no

Printemps · 16/11/2019 22:38

Epstein was convicted of sex crimes in a court of law and there is a photograph of Andrew with his arm around one of the young victims (scantily clad). The picture was taken at the time and the place and in the company that she says the events took place. I wonder what kind of evidence you would require to make her statement 'plausible'.

sweetiepy · 16/11/2019 22:39

@Inspiralcarpetry Think you are being very unfair about his memory.
He did remember the exact date he took his daughter to Pizza Hut (or wherever) all those years ago!!

Muminabun · 16/11/2019 22:39

The accuser is very credible, Andrew comes across really badly and always has. There is a rumour the French police want to question him re similar allegations to which he has refused. Why are the police not questioning him. Why did he visit the island so many times. Why was he seen waving girls off from Epstein’s London property. Anyone who thinks he is innocent I think is really in denial. I feel sick that taxpayers have paid for this mans lifestyle.

LadyLanka · 16/11/2019 22:40

I think it is perfectly possible that the Duke of York was unaware of the goings on. It wasn't as if he were on frequent holidays with Epstein in Majorca or Ibiza.
The more militant amongst you appear to be ignoring the fact that I have not made any mention of the so-called allegations.

gamerwidow · 16/11/2019 22:40

I support Andy too.
Who out of us hasn't been forced to stay with a convicted child rapist out of convenience.
It's only honourable not to make a fuss and risk causing child rapists any embarrassment by staying in a hotel.
It could happen to any of us,

Clearnightsky · 16/11/2019 22:41

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

Ha ha! Grin very good.

OP you are goady. Why not ask the women victims how they feel about the royal seal of approval by association. I think their views are worth more than all of ours.

Grimbles · 16/11/2019 22:41

Yes, of course Andrew had no idea Epstein was a convicted paedophile Hmm

Justgorgeous · 16/11/2019 22:41

He’s a bad apple. Straight to the tower.
