Andrew is hardly moving into a 2 up 2 down is he?

[JacknDiane]

Fed up hearing the breaking news....Andrew has left royal lodge.
So what, hes moving from one mansion to another. With lakeys waiting to clean the place and people to shop and cook for him. Etc etc.

As if hes going to ever live like us plebs.

And his victims will never get justice

So she's shat on King Charles then ? She was clearly more devoted to Andrew than the country she was lucky enough to have been born to reign.

I wonder who on earth would want to work for him? Imagine being a butler for a toad like Andrew.

I hope someone spits in Andrew’s Earl Grey Tea.

yes exactly and no evidence he knew any details of what was going on, just a tech autist, and richest man in the world, trying to be included and in with the cool guys if the time. Very different from Andrey and Mandelson (and Trump?) who clearly had extremely close relationship with multiple stays at his properties and introductions to young women in Andrews case over multiple decades.

Both Andrew and Mandelson should be investigated by the police.

You'd have to beat them off with a shitty stick. The allure of royalty is so powerful to some.

I can guarantee there are people out there who when cornered would say they prefer having Andrew and a monarchy than the alternative.

Interestingly my MIL is still a big supporter of Andrew. She thinks the tabloid news has blown it all out of proportion and taken things out of context to make Andrew look bad, and the Queen was protecting him because he was being victimised. She thinks the BBC is woke and corrupt and scared to debunk the stories about Andrew., after the scarring impact of letting a number of men get away with abuse within the hallowed halls of the bbc.

I guess when you consider the lies and exaggerations of the gutter press, that’s believable.

She thinks it’s deplorable that A has lost his title - that it should not even be possible, you can’t remove a birthright. And she thinks it’s disgusting that he has lost his home and been cut off from public life since no crime is proven, it’s just rumours and smoke.

It is privately owned.
It was bought with private funds from the Duchy of Lancaster by Queen Victoria for her son, Edward Prince of Wales and his bride Princess Alexandra of Denmark.

I said secretary because that is what I read somewhere, no idea how true it is. A secretary might be a PA arranging travel (if he does travel) and a valet sorting his clothes!
One member of staff he wanted too, was a groom. Well, he wouldn't be mucking out stables would he....

He's repulsive. I actually think he should be kicked out of the country. And definitely not funded by the public purse. In fact any money he'd got that wasn't a hand out from the taxpayer should be removed from him under the proceeds of crime act.

I suspect that he would be only too welcome in certain countries, which is the problem.

What have the girls in Hull done to deserve that?

@BillieWiper
Where would you kick him out to? He should be kept in the UK. Why should any other country have to deal with him? He is a problem of the UK's making.

@LunaDeBallona
It was bought with funds from the public purse . Victoria and Albert pleaded poverty claiming their take from the Victorian public was not enough . They had plenty from the Duchy of course . They just wanted more .
They got more .
And bought Sandringham . And then said private funds .
Nothing they have is private. It’s all stolen

Doesn’t the Duchy of Lancaster receive the estates of people who have died intestate without family?

He has a palatial home provided for him by Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan in Abu Dhabi. With servants.
Personally I think he should fuck off there.

Yeah but at least we'd be rid of his repulsive being. But I guess if it facilitates him having an easier or more comfortable life then he should stay here.

I just do not see how he can be allowed to have all these fancy things when he's literally an unemployed paedo.

Hopefully you mean people knowing about it is what would've finished her, rather than any concern for the victims.

He’s been out riding all week. Does he do literally nothing in terms of his house move. I thought he was broke?

OT I know, but I really don’t see it as ‘screwed up’ that kids often have to share bedrooms. My DPs weren’t actually poor, but with 4 DCs in a 4 bed house it was normal. And still often is. As a child I never had a room of my own.

He might be, but the odds are against it. There's an 11 year gap and only one of them has cancer. William would be wise to prepare on the basis that Andrew is a problem he's going to inherit, and may have to manage for decades.

Quite , @CommonlyKnownAs

I don't know, but I suspect William has plans in place .

One would hope!

That's what I was referring to. I don't know how wise that would be. However, his wife and one of his daughters are also clearly very friendly with the Sheikh, so who knows.

Too much to hope he abdicates and ends the monarchy on accession ?

I meant about Andrew.
But I have no idea what his plans are, AMW or otherwise.
