Hurrah! No more innocent civilians mowed down by his seat belt-less joy ridesGrin

It had to happen really. The press would have plagued him every time he drove somewhere.

If he likes to drive he has plenty of private land.

No need for him to be nipping out down the shops.

Pushed or jumped? I bet he’s not happy about it as he seemed to want to go places on his own. Where did he go?

Apparently the accident is being reviewed by the CPS and this 'latest development will be taken into account' . My guess is he has been advised to give up his license to avoid a possible prosecution.

Ooh right. So pushed then.

On the plus side, it gives him more time to wander round the Sandringham estate with his grandsons blasting away at protected endangered species.

And he won’t be able to cheat and nip off for a quick... whatever he was doing... because there is obviously a hot line from his office to the press. They have been stalking him driving for ages. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’d had a few near misses on his own land and they knew he was an accident waiting to happen.
