Poor baby - run home to mummy!

So, not only had Prince Andrew run home to mummy, The Queen has let it be known to the regiment that she wants the Duke of York to remain as colonel, and the feeling is that nobody wants to do anything that could cause upset to the colonel-in-chief.'
What about those who have been hurt by this so far by these allegations...... Diddums - poor Andrew, I wonder if The Queen spoon feeds him his breakfast and wipes his botty for him also!

Well it didn't take me two minutes to find the source and evidence. So either you are googling the wrong thing or your on-line history is pretty strange Casdon. It's here www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9894567/US-lawyers-tried-serve-Prince-Andrew-Virginia-Giuffre-sex-assault-papers-horse.html

Post your source please Grany, there’s no credible evidence I could find online to support your assertion. It’s a civil case, there is no international convention to recognise and enforce US civil judgments in England unless a defendant voluntarily submits to the jurisdiction of the US court. This is a good analysis.

I don't believe it either Annie.

Anniebach Wed 01-Sept-21 21:59:20

No Petera , if the public know he was in Scotland one would
think the lawyers would have known, seems he could flee the
country , the press report it but the lawyers wouldn’t know.

So I don’t believe they made multiple attempts .

Grany Wed 01-Sept-21 21:03:24

Yes we did. We made a 2022 Democratic Heads of State calendar! Available now via Republic's shop republic.org.uk/shop smile

Anniebach

He was in Scotland last week

So can we expect him now to ring up and say "Sorry I missed you, but you will find me at ... this week"?

Anniebach Wed 01-Sept-21 16:22:47

Grany Wed 01-Sept-21 10:38:47

"Security guards stopped 'multiple attempts' by lawyers last week to hand the document to The Duke of York at Royal Lodge."

Outrageous.

At what point will politicians in Westminster start to ask questions about Prince Andrew?


Republic
@RepublicStaff

Last week we asked our supporters if they've served in the military, and if they would be prepared to take part in campaigns to end royal involvement with our armed forces. More than 300 people have so far been in touch, people who have served across the past several decades.

The queen wants Andrew to keep his honorary titles as don't want him to wear a suit for jubilee celebrations

Disrespect to the military

Resist all attempts to make you a Lady of the Stool Callistemon it's nothing to do with something you sit on.

I'm waiting for DH to make my coffee.

Anniebach Tue 31-Aug-21 10:52:39

I missed that Fanny sorry

FannyCornforth Tue 31-Aug-21 10:24:52

What?! You don’t have one Grany?
You are most welcome to discuss the monarchy / republicanism on the Royal Chat thread.
I tried to resurrect it the other day, starting with my own thoughts, but only Maddyone replied sad

Anniebach Mon 30-Aug-21 21:30:36

Anne called her daughter Zara, Anne’s lady in waiting was
Shan Legge-Burke, mother of Tiggy and Zara

Grany why don't you step down from your soapbox and give it a rest for a while.

this is rather rude, I think you should apologise

Thank you JaneJudge this is a thread about RF so we can have opinions

Grany Mon 30-Aug-21 20:51:24

JaneJudge

what did it look like?
lots of very wealthy families pay for their own security, people moan enough on here about people on universal credit, 'these young people with loads of stuff' who can't afford a tin of ham
why are the royal family getting so much money whilst people in social care are scrimped on expected to pay for their dinners out of 42p

Yes agree it's very unfair though some people don't want criticism of the RF

Alegrias1 Mon 30-Aug-21 20:47:19

We're lucky to have them JaneJudge. Apparently. hmm

Aveline Mon 30-Aug-21 20:29:21

Why? She has been going on and on about the Royal Family just as if she was on a soap box.
