I feel the royal family should not be defending Andrew, and instead putting the spotlight on him, else it gives the impression the royals condone the behaviour.
If this was anyone else they would face retribution and trial.
I personally think so, but then again I've never liked him. Always thought of him as a self-entitled, arrogant prig. I also think he will get away with all this.
"The other girls all seemed and appeared to be under the age of 18 and didn’t really speak English.”"
I think that fits the term used. However it seems that has been censored and i don't want my thread removed, so i don't think the term i used should be the focus of the thread.
I didn't realise *** meant paedo. I don't think he's that, but I do think he slept with a lot of much younger girls at Epstein's home. If he was anybody else, the truth would come out, but I feel the RF will close ranks.
Of course it doesn't Naomi. There would be a great deal of paedophiles living in this country if it did. Andrew chose bad company. Stupid of him, but not a heinous crime. Just a typical rich bloke who was going through a middle aged crisis and needed an ego boost.
but it does make him untrustworthy, how old was he, was he still married, i don't suppose will ever know the truth of the matter. The Queen must be up in arms, as to Prince Philip, enough said.
Rosie, I believe is correct. My friend and her husband lived on Grand Cayman for 20 years and PA visited there with the Royal Navy during Pirates' Week which is a HUGE event there. Lots of private parties, lots of alcohol and drugs. I am told that boys were PA's entertainment of choice rather than young girls. Who knows? AC/DC I'd guess.
Loads like him around. But in his position he should have applied his brain, and unfortunately his brain was in his trousers. He was always called RandyAndy A real embarrassment to his family. Fergie was just as bad.
Through the ages there have been men and women who were not fit to be "royals" but were simply placed in that position by virtue of their birth. At any time in the future such an unfit person could be our king or queen.
The monarchy should be abolished. At least with a president they would have a limited time in office & could be challenged over misdemeanors.
