Prince Andrew is being sued

The cost of running both Houses of Parliament in 2018/19 was £560.4 million. That pays for 1400 parliamentarians plus their staff. £345m is spent on providing us with one head of state.

This would be appalling if they tried it on. Unlikely to succeed as royals have been prosecuted before.

The Prince might also argue that he has some form of sovereign or crown immunity because he was a working member of the Royal Family and part of the British state apparatus at the time of the alleged incidents.

The Metropolitan Police Commissioner, herself under enormous pressure in the past few months, has ordered a review of the allegations made against Prince Andrew by Virginia Giuffre. She insists: “No one is above the law.”

She said when asked about aligations against Andrew LBC

.....and here was me thinking Sarah Ferguson being invited to Balmoral this summer was the start of a process which would see her and Prince Andrew shortly remarrying, thus bringing him back in from the cold as the 'good man' she keeps saying he is.

Not now.

He isn’t the only one being cited, is he the only one being sued

Look what level of behaviour are you demanding from her?

If Windsor was prepared to cooperate, he almost certainly would not have been sued if he could prove enough evidence to show he was innocent.

In fact you would think that he would welcome the chance!

Exactly.

Annie.

Jean-Luc Brunel has been arrested. She didn't need to take personal action against him because he has been arrested.

He isn’t the only one being cited, is he the only one being sued

Are all these rich and powerful politicians and business men
being sued ?

Windsor is not the only one cited in the case.

Charles has said that Andrew will never return to public service.

His life as a royal is finished.

Are all these rich and powerful politicians and business men
being sued ?

So if Windsor is a casualty, what about all the other rich and powerful politicians, businessmen etc? Are they all casualties as well?

Of course not.

They were complicit in Epstein’s actions. A fool would know that what was taking place was wrong and immoral.

What flights and hotels are the alleged bodyguards using ?

Andrew still has security, mummy fixed it for him www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8395675/Prince-Andrew-allowed-300-000-year-bodyguards.html

Well, I misread that link:
"Prince Andrew allowed 300 year old bodyguards"

It really is time for bed.

300,000 year-old body guards? ?

Yes, I reiterate: Prince Andrew is a casualty, through his choice to associate with a very charming and totally corrupt man.
Virginia Guiffre is another casualty; at the moment she is riding high but once, if ever, the claims are settled, most of the money will vanish in legal fees and she will have allowed herself yet again to have been used as a pawn.

I have no idea what he knew or didn’t know, what I know of him I could believe he is so arrogant he wouldn’t even think the girl was forced to have sex with him , she would be thrilled
to have sex with him.

I don't know about any of you but I've never been to a party where young women are procured for prostitution for older, powerful men to access whilst at the party. Lets stop talking as though he was hapless and didn't know what was happening

In 2011, she was asked whether Prince Andrew would have information and told her lawyers in 2011: “Yes, he would know a lot of the truth." "Again, I don’t know how much he would be able to help you with, but seeing he’s in a lot of trouble himself these days, I think he might,” she added. “So, I think he may be valuable. I’m not too sure of him.” [48] In 2014, after apparently not knowing whether he would be valuable and after having asked whether he might like to help with the allegations against Epstein, she accused him for the first time ever of sexual offences.

Yes Petera she did, the interview was so distressing

Dennis Nilsen was jailed in the 80’s for the most horrific crimes. His mother was asked why did she regularly travel from Scotland to visit him, she replied - he is my son.

She also expressed abhorrence at her son’s crimes, her deep hurt inside for those families he had destroyed and her incomprehension at what had happened.

Windsor a casualty!!

People are casualties as a result of people like Windsor.

Why has he been stripped of his titles, why is he no longer doing public duties if he is snowy white? Guilty or not he kept very insalubrious company, company that no decent person would want to be associated with.

Virginia Guiffre has named six other men for 'molesting' (my word) her: a hedge-fund manager, two lawyers, a politician, a scientist and a model agent; none of them are known here which is why there is little interest in the press. Their names were revealed after she won the right to unseal court documents, previously used to gain compensation from Epstein and Maxwell; the revelations were followed by Epstein's death the next day.
I gave up attempting to make sense of the various accusations and court cases as the American legal system is so different from ours, and no one involved, including Prince Andrew, Maxwell, Epstein, Guiffre and all the lawyers appears to have any sort of moral standing. Prince Andrew has ruined himself by his association with Epstein; he and Virginia Guiffre are casualties of his sordid world.

If Windsor ignores the courts, he will be subject to a default judgement which will be upheld throughout the world.

I am no admirer of Prince Andrew, we have naval friends who have spoken of his naval career and his unpopularity with crews and officers he worked with because of his arrogance and ignorance.

However, an investigative team in the DM, not one of his warmest supporters either, have suggested that not everything in the court case is quite as claimed and witnesses have come forward to throw doubts on parts.

We can only wait and see what comes up in court. Both parties will have good lawyers.
