Here we go … Andrew to leave Royal Lodge and lose title

[Flixon]

Headlined in The Times just now …. About bloody time …

Entirely

This is huge!

Well done Charles.

@ShenandoahRiver - Are you saying Charles had to be forced ?
By whom ? ( genuine question).

At last! It needed to happen - so pleased!

Christmas is going to be awkward

And so it begins.

Well well well. Not a moment too soon.

Excellent news. Well done King Charles!

Why?

Wow, that is monumental, never expected it to happen.

I wonder if something else is about to come out about him!

It's not really surprising that the King and Queen would mention them but good that they did. Camilla does a lot of work in this area, as does Sophie. I'm sure they were despairing at Andrew's mealy mouthed statement.

Not happy he's coming to Norfolk though!

My reading is that Andrew has served formal notice to surrender the lease. I don’t think these words would be used if the royal estate was bringing the lease to an end.

I thought the government would act.

I wonder where Fergie will live

It’s pathetic they took so long

She’s certainly not KC’s problem.

Watching BBC News 24 now. Wow. Good.

Finally the victims are acknowledged

Last week, the news was saying that a source claimed they agreed to leave if they were given a smaller private residence each.

I suspect it's taken a bit of extra time as the royal lawyers will have needed a few days to make sure this is absolutely water-tight. This is the 2nd recent statement from the King and Queen offering sympathy to the victims, the first was hardly reported by our 'delightful' media at all. They cynic in me finds this unsurprising.
Very glad this has happened.

Woah. Never saw that one coming. Suspect he didn't either!

Will B and E lose theirs?

Apparently he's going to move to a property on Sandringham privately funded by Charles.
