Prince Andrew is the typical spoilt brat that threw his weight about. It worked for a huge part of his life, then it started to unravel. These brats never seem to have a filter and think they can do whatever they want. Then he’s bewildered when he’s pulled up. Zero self awareness and respect for others.
thank you. People are wondering how much power ANY member of royalty has, and should they have it? Sometimes, family does not come first, when your family represents the entire nation.
@@jolist3722 One could argue that he needs help from being institualized by that family from birth and wasn't given the help he needs. This institution should be abolished before William children meet the same faith. Harry has moved on and is working on his mental health.
@@Cherrytune386 I hope so,they have drifted off the people enough. Follow Harry's lead, be independent,William is definitely in a better financial position if your handlers don't steal all your money .
it's time?? lesson learned was that he should have retired LONG AGO. Yet he and his "wife" are front and center with the royals at funerals and such. He also thumbs his nose at Charles, staying in a home that Charles wishes his son and heir to live in. Andrew STILL has such power he can ignore his brother, the King, and claims if the King tries to kick him out the public will rally around him. First off, Charles, just show you are indeed KING now. He's supposed to be living a private life NOW, but he won't.
What more ammo do we need. A king who shat on his children's mother & a brother who screws anybody, including children, for his own gratification & wealth.
This is the dangerous problem when a country gives national security information to a family that answers to absolutely no one and whose power can’t be removed by its citizens. May Britain become a true democracy.
Andrew was grifting, just like he and the the rest of his family have done for centuries. Now he can’t do state sanctioned grifting anymore he only has his own private form of it. The only thing he can leverage though is his royalty, he has no talent, no skill, just he is the brother of the king. He knows nothing else, has the inbred arrogance and stupidity of all the royals and this is a recipe for disaster as has been clearly demonstrated. Can you image what the rest of them would be like if the state turned off the money tap? They would never work, just become a criminal enterprise and should be abolished.
People berate and mock Harry for speaking out about the Royal institution but perhaps is correct in his assessment of their dealings with people from outside the Firm. Andrew is fully aware that there is no accountability for his alleged corrupt behaviour and he is immune from prosecution. Time for a Referendum.
in much of the US, people believe the US press that says the Royals control much of the press in the UK. Sure they have people complaining, but there is always the very pro royal person to stand up for them. Then when Andrew had done something that the rest of the world found shocking, the press made sure Harry and Megan were thrown under the bus and horrific things were said about them. No one suggested Andrew be flogged in public. Turn on the BBC and it was all Harry and Megan are annoying, and Andrew was tricked into posing for that photograph and she was legal in the UK! He will stay, nothing will happen, and I'm sure other royals are selling their proximity to the top. Didn't Prince Edward and his wife do so in the past?
Prince Andrew is not the only one. Prince Charles was also taking bags of cash from Arab doners wanting UK citizenship instead of using some of his vast amounts if cash to support his charity work is a problem. Now he is king and can't be prosecuted. Who says he is not continuing this practice. The other problem is that all working members of the family have to rely on the monarch or the next in line for their daily bread, which is also a problem. It's time a modern way is worked out for working members of the family to have proper salaries and benefits and employment contracts. If that were the case, Harry wouldn't have exited the way he did or perhaps at all. He would have a good case. If as an employee he said his wife and himself were suffering significant mental health issues because of their work or otherwise and asked for a reduction in hours worked and was refused. He would have an excellent case for constructive dismissal and be entitled to compensation. This will continue to happen as long as there is no formal agreement about working hours and a proper pay structure. Sarah Ferguson got herself in trouble the same way. Meghan did significant work on behalf of the royal family and was paid nothing, not even a clothing allowance, and Harry's stipen was not increased to reflect that he had become a married man with a family. How long did they expect Meghan to continue to represent the institution for free, depleting her own earned resources to benefit the country and crown. While Kate was financed. That was not fair. She was singled out for unusual treatment. So anyone saying she was welcome needs to think again. The home the queen offered they paid market value rent and refitted out the accommodation at their own expense. Yet all the negative publicity they got none of this was explained. They allowed the media and public to think they were financing her, so he was entitled to attack her for how much she spent on clothing. It's totally unfair. It all needs more transparency who gets what and how much. They gave Andrew a home with 20 or 30 rooms clearly too much for him on the income he was getting and did not provide for how he would pay the huge cost. A more modest home, such as the Sussexes, should have been what he should have. Harry said they were offered grander properties, but they could not afford the bills, so he was happy when they were offered Frogmore Cottage even though it was in ruins. How is Prince Edward paying for Bagshot Hall even grander, and until recently, they didn't seem to work that much, especially Edward doing royal duties, so who is paying the huge bills they must have. Why does a family of four need such a massive property. Why isn't it sold or rented, and they get a more modest home. There needs to be more scrutiny. A body should be set up to see where all the taxpayers' money is going and make sure the public is getting value for money. When the government is taking away heating stipen for the elderly it's the least we should expect.
Andrews over developed sense of entitlement coupled with his overwhelming arrogance has proved he is a national threat. Not helped by his apparent lack of intelligence. He's a liability.
and yet WHY doesn't the King kick him out of the home he wants his heir and family to reside in? WHY? Andrew has been a liability long before this, yet he's still showing up for funerals and any event where he can be PRINCE. His staying in his current squat is thumbing his nose at his brother, and the King takes it. Why?
I find shocking the King's constant protection and support for Andrew while hating and ousting Meghan who worked for free while royal, no awards and accolades, who gave birth to Harry's children and makes Harry happy. Cannot understand the rejection of his own son Harry and of his family, never even having time to meet him or support Harry's philanthropic endeavours, but keeping Andy safe from public and even legal scrutiny. Was it worth paying millions for Andy's sins, rather than donating those money to the poor and hungry? Why has the King thrown his son and family in the lions cage? What wrong have they done in comparison with Prince Andrew???
Refreshing to see someone not buying the line on Harry and especially Megan, while contrasting it with Charle's dithering over his brother's transgressions. Harry could very well end up in much the same position as Andrew, being forced to court foolish associations because the Press murdered his Mother, and would try the same with his wife, and neither William or Charles are big enough to seek reconciliation.
@@AdultThirdCultureKid1971 Meghan was treated appallingly before, during and after giving birth to Archie, while the firm was protecting Andy irrespective of his own crimes as a sex offender and for being a close ally of a Chinese spy.
We, as a country, are proud of our traditions such as the monarchy. Andrew Windsor apparently has financial difficulties and is in dispute as to his accommodation. The King could accentuate the first and solve the latter by dint of refurbishing one of the rooms used as cells in the Tower of London. Think of the advantages. A meaningful role plus somewhere Andrew could afford to live and a meaningful role in our rich pageantry.
Yet he is still more acceptable for Charles to invite for Christmas dinner than his own son Harry. Then again Charles had a state visit for the royals from Quatar. Are we so desperate in this country we have to go cap in hand to all unsavoury countries who do not care about human life. But then again we also had a state visit for Assad when the Queen was alive. This is what happens when you pay millions of pounds to a family, who frankly in a modern society do nothing.
In a previous life I was part of the police security team that guarded the royal palaces. Needless to say Andrew was absolutely despised by everyone. I could reveal lots of titbits but I won’t but the one thing I do recall was the numbers of patently incredibly wealthy foreigners dropping off ‘gifts’. Some were admitted. Some weren’t
let's say if any security had looked into Epstein and his side kick, who was in and out of the palace countless times...they would have put a stop to it (or should have). Royals have a lot more power than people assume. Also rumors around the world that they control much of the press.
I totally agree, how bonkers is it that Andrew can be so dim to see where he is generally. He's had some rathet tacky choices in the people he has had attachment too.
Perhaps Andrew is being set up, he is characteristically arrogant and prone to bad choices, allow the association to develop while knowing that he can be compromised, break the story at an appropriate time, Andrew ends up the villain of the piece. This is not an apology for Andrew, he is the poster-boy of everything wrong with the Monarchy.
I blame King Charles ( and Prince Williams) who have treated Prince Andrew worst then a bastard child. Soon as the late Queen died the knifes were out . Ps Prince Wiluam is not in my opinion a nice person look how he treats Prince Harry.
Without getting into the entire soap opera, there is a genuine beef between C & A. A few hundred years ago Andrew would be enjoying his retirement in the Tower of London. And we'll probably be having much the same sort of conversation about Harry in a few years.
Charles, the man who self identifies as 👑 has no power other than the power given him by others. Imagine a game show where Charles and nine others were to persuade audience members of their right to be 👑, what would Charles say, " My mommy was Queen"?
I feel like this was a deliberate intention. He probably thought that he was untouchable with the help of other people in power. The revelation is here to be seen!
Suspect the security services have probably known this since the start, and now the Chinese know they have been rumbled it has been put in the public domain to warn others of their dalliance with overseas money providers.
He's an easy touch because of his arragant stupidity, play to his ego and the idiot will do anything, lets face it he's as thick as pudding , Harry’s much the same .
he's not stupid. He is drawn to this crap. I have a friend, lovely bloke, he'd give you the shirt off his back. But he is always on the peripheral or in the middle of trouble. He can't help himself. He's a moth constantly flying toward the flame.
Seppaco comes to mind as a approiete measure he could take but honour is sadly missing from this self serving narcissist who cares not a jot surpassed only by his continuing contempt to all.
Is there no one in Royal Circles who advise Princes that they are not ordinary people? I blame their instructors on their Royal responsibilities. I'm afraid when you are born as a royal person you are not allowed an ordinary life. They have every advantage not available to us ordinary folk and as such it should be drilled into them their responsibilities . If they don't like i go hide away, become anonymous, enjoy the fruits of being born priviledged but dont be so ***** stupid.
Desperate people do desperate things. But why stop at him. David Cameron`s desperation to get investment and trade allowed the chinese to run amock among the esteemed leaders and the entrenched and elite class.
A valid question would be why does access to the Royal Family creates a national security problem? Maybe the monarch does not need to be briefed on sensitive matters of state. They are supposed to only be a constitutional monarch. A figure head. The need to know should extend to their schedule for garden parties and the like, and nothing else.
I'm not. How many others in the past behaved like him, but were shielded from exposure before the advent of "social media" which is mostly out of the control of "the establishment"?
Ooooh a national security risk. You must all protect the lies or be exposed as ridiculous yet horrific monsters. Why can't you all just be honest and admit it?
Was he not brought up to understand that some people will always be interested in Royal access for reasons other than friendship or more? Seems an epic failure in his upbringing and education. 🤯
As an aside, I find it odd looking at Charles & William adorned with all their medals at state occasions, that the only two that have actually seen war-time active service - Andrew & Harry and who earned their medals are not allowed to wear them in public any more.
Anyone tell me what he is a 'professor' of? I've never found out what his subject is. I know he went to Oxford, but so did many of us. We are not all 'professors', though...I do NOT think he is a real professor (in the British English sense of the word).
Awwww. Prof was a prof in Russia. He'll always be a prof to me. Just as the Who is a doc. Dost not recognise the scarf? The Arthur Dent dressing gown? The imaginary Gandalfian pipe?
@@johnslavin2270So, he's not a real, British-English, Professor...I see. He shouldn't call himself one, then. Some people work hard to become a real 'Professor'. Not just a bog-standard 'teacher'. That's what 'professor' means in American English - simply 'teacher'. Who is he trying to con?
Can anyone specify the security risk posed by H6's access to a non-working royal and its severity? The court of public opinion has found Andrew guilty of poor judgment. Scrutiny would reveal what? Regarding position and accessibility, does this mean that all British businessman with contacts with foreigners should undergo the same scrutiny?
The sad part is that his daughters seem like intelligent young women and mothers who could help out the royal family with official duties. But Andrew is ruining their chances. I understand that kicking someone out of the royal family is rare but also severe. Still, he learned NOTHING, NOTHING PERIOD, and ignores the King's demands, he leave the royal home he is occupying. Let's admit the press is guilty also. We always hear, "The royals have the press in their pocket." People claim that Megan and Harry were thrown under the bus (possibly double-decker) to distract from Andrew and Epstein. Megan was annoying but could have been educated, and the family could have helped her adjust and feel less lonely. She has adorable children, and we all have an annoying relative. But when a member of the press calls for her to be whipped naked, and people assume she's done something horrific (far worse than Andrew, who no one has mentioned any severe punishment), it does take the heat off Andrew, a born royal.
There was nothing annoying about Meghan and she was very educated before joining that family. The so-called royal protocols were highlighted just to make her look bad. Meghan never had a chance in that family. I'm glad she left.
Beijing currently suffers negative inflation with markedly declined production signifying economic depression; something Andrew is presumably cognizant, so Chinese actor scene appearance should raise immediate personal princely concern. I assumed he reads the Economist, Financial Times, and Wall Street Journal. Does he receive Bank of England briefings? Or MI5/MI6 security summary....
I am proud to have been a supporter of the Royal Family for most of my life. However, despite all the claims of diplomacy and promotion of UK plc, one man has constantly brought his family in to disrepute. Andrew. He just seems to have such an overly-evolved ego. It doesn't matter what he does or those around him do, he will get away with anything. I struggle with the fact that he paid £12,000,000 in an out of Court settlement for an alleged sexual encounter. How was he able to secure such a sum of money and how could he justify a sum that equals a win on the national lottery? This was not an actual admission of guilt be by God if it looks like a duck and sounds like a duck ...
Your naivety and almost wilfull ignorance of the royal family's wealth and hypocrisy at a time when pensioners are denied heating allowance is staggering. Andrew is not alone in his venality. The rest are just better at disguising it.
@@Alanturner-c5x Not naïve nor ignorant but well educated and even old enough to make up my own mind about anyone. If that means I see the Royal Family in a favourable light then ignorance is not mine. I have researched to my own satisfaction from several sources, contemplated the evidence gained and made a well balanced determination of my own. As for political decisions, these are outside my remit and while I detest the highlighted policy, it has been mitigated and, thankfully for a change, has not been reversed due to external pressures. Imagine the chaos if all policy decision were subject to public approval.
@@raymondpenn1066 I have in the past taught public schoolboys. Almost without exception they proved to be dolts. Again, almost without exception they went to work in the city, banking and the stock exchange. They too , like you, were royalists. My point is not a subtle one: having a good education is not necessarily a reliable indicator of intelligence. I distrust anyone who claims otherwise. You sound a pompous twerp.
The distancing by the King is all a front. Thick as thieves them all. Thieves being the operative word.

Seppaco comes to mind as a approiete measure he could take but honour is sadly missing from this self serving narcissist who cares not a jot surpassed only by his continuing contempt to all.
Is there no one in Royal Circles who advise Princes that they are not ordinary people? I blame their instructors on their Royal responsibilities. I'm afraid when you are born as a royal person you are not allowed an ordinary life. They have every advantage not available to us ordinary folk and as such it should be drilled into them their responsibilities . If they don't like i go hide away, become anonymous, enjoy the fruits of being born priviledged but dont be so ***** stupid.
It's ok, this will be glossed over.
A p doe, but still a member of the ppl that get to look down upon us.
Desperate people do desperate things. But why stop at him. David Cameron`s desperation to get investment and trade allowed the chinese to run amock among the esteemed leaders and the entrenched and elite class.
We have been pandering to the mythical, Arthurien concept of monarchy for too long. Time they were taxed and scrutinised properly.
Not the first agent of a foreign country grooming Andrew.
Nice shirt Tim.
A valid question would be why does access to the Royal Family creates a national security problem? Maybe the monarch does not need to be briefed on sensitive matters of state. They are supposed to only be a constitutional monarch. A figure head. The need to know should extend to their schedule for garden parties and the like, and nothing else.
What are you professor of?
Please tell us.
I am shocked.
I'm not.
How many others in the past behaved like him, but were shielded from exposure before the advent of "social media" which is mostly out of the control of "the establishment"?
Maybe Andrew was being blackmailed over other aspects of his life
Ooooh a national security risk. You must all protect the lies or be exposed as ridiculous yet horrific monsters. Why can't you all just be honest and admit it?
Was he not brought up to understand that some people will always be interested in Royal access for reasons other than friendship or more?
Seems an epic failure in his upbringing and education.
🤯
Hes a joke across the world.
As an aside, I find it odd looking at Charles & William adorned with all their medals at state occasions, that the only two that have actually seen war-time active service - Andrew & Harry and who earned their medals are not allowed to wear them in public any more.
Anyone tell me what he is a 'professor' of? I've never found out what his subject is. I know he went to Oxford, but so did many of us. We are not all 'professors', though...I do NOT think he is a real professor (in the British English sense of the word).
Awwww. Prof was a prof in Russia. He'll always be a prof to me. Just as the Who is a doc. Dost not recognise the scarf? The Arthur Dent dressing gown? The imaginary Gandalfian pipe?
Because Santa Clause has to have an alibi... 🤫
@@johnslavin2270So, he's not a real, British-English, Professor...I see. He shouldn't call himself one, then. Some people work hard to become a real 'Professor'. Not just a bog-standard 'teacher'. That's what 'professor' means in American English - simply 'teacher'. Who is he trying to con?
He just needs to go out and get a job. I understand there is a shortage of road sweepers.
I think he needs to retire to a remote bit of British land in the middle of nowhere for the sake of his family at least
Can anyone specify the security risk posed by H6's access to a non-working royal and its severity?
The court of public opinion has found Andrew guilty of poor judgment. Scrutiny would reveal what?
Regarding position and accessibility, does this mean that all British businessman with contacts with foreigners should undergo the same scrutiny?
Why not? You don't get many traitors from the lower orders. And what does the term non working royal mean?
I don't understand the British people he is still more popular than Prince Harry and Princess Megan?
It all goes to suggest the usefulness of defenestration.
He is a muppet, but it seems like leaky sue is at it again. 🤔☮️
Harry the Royal family has fallen apart since u left.
No one believed me. You all scoffed at me when I called him Prince Andy Capp
Harry u have a crazy uncle
He is a unique judge of character, isn't he 😐
I wonder if H6 is pretty?
The sad part is that his daughters seem like intelligent young women and mothers who could help out the royal family with official duties. But Andrew is ruining their chances. I understand that kicking someone out of the royal family is rare but also severe. Still, he learned NOTHING, NOTHING PERIOD, and ignores the King's demands, he leave the royal home he is occupying. Let's admit the press is guilty also. We always hear, "The royals have the press in their pocket." People claim that Megan and Harry were thrown under the bus (possibly double-decker) to distract from Andrew and Epstein. Megan was annoying but could have been educated, and the family could have helped her adjust and feel less lonely. She has adorable children, and we all have an annoying relative. But when a member of the press calls for her to be whipped naked, and people assume she's done something horrific (far worse than Andrew, who no one has mentioned any severe punishment), it does take the heat off Andrew, a born royal.
There was nothing annoying about Meghan and she was very educated before joining that family. The so-called royal protocols were highlighted just to make her look bad. Meghan never had a chance in that family. I'm glad she left.
Nothing to do with Andrew whatsoever - but how does one send you something that may interest you?
I'm royal suck it up😊
Beijing currently suffers negative inflation with markedly declined production signifying economic depression; something Andrew is presumably cognizant, so Chinese actor scene appearance should raise immediate personal princely concern. I assumed he reads the Economist, Financial Times, and Wall Street Journal. Does he receive Bank of England briefings? Or MI5/MI6 security summary....
Andrew is a royal and therefore above any question. How dare anyone question the character and links of a royal!
I am proud to have been a supporter of the Royal Family for most of my life. However, despite all the claims of diplomacy and promotion of UK plc, one man has constantly brought his family in to disrepute. Andrew. He just seems to have such an overly-evolved ego. It doesn't matter what he does or those around him do, he will get away with anything. I struggle with the fact that he paid £12,000,000 in an out of Court settlement for an alleged sexual encounter. How was he able to secure such a sum of money and how could he justify a sum that equals a win on the national lottery? This was not an actual admission of guilt be by God if it looks like a duck and sounds like a duck ...
Your naivety and almost wilfull ignorance of the royal family's wealth and hypocrisy at a time when pensioners are denied heating allowance is staggering. Andrew is not alone in his venality. The rest are just better at disguising it.
@@Alanturner-c5x Not naïve nor ignorant but well educated and even old enough to make up my own mind about anyone. If that means I see the Royal Family in a favourable light then ignorance is not mine. I have researched to my own satisfaction from several sources, contemplated the evidence gained and made a well balanced determination of my own. As for political decisions, these are outside my remit and while I detest the highlighted policy, it has been mitigated and, thankfully for a change, has not been reversed due to external pressures. Imagine the chaos if all policy decision were subject to public approval.
@@raymondpenn1066 I have in the past taught public schoolboys. Almost without exception
they proved to be dolts. Again, almost without exception they went to work in the city, banking and the stock exchange. They too , like you, were royalists. My point is not a subtle one:
having a good education is not necessarily a reliable indicator of intelligence. I distrust anyone who claims otherwise. You sound a pompous twerp.
Is he still on the dole or whatever the royals call it?
Royal beast !!!!
