Kind of curious how Epstein got his money. If he was funded by Russians or Chinese to gain influence/leverage over the powerful that'd be a fun conspiracy theory
Lovely family Andrew fixed palace visit for firm with £1.4m deal with ex-wife https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cy5q05v0q1xo
Andrew Windsor Mountbatten is an absolute parasite on this nation. He can deny what he likes, but he's getting his just desserts right now. Not that being banished to a private estate in Sandringham is exactly a punishment. Scumbag
I never ever comment on these threads but this runs deep and the people in charge of this world are all in on it. That’s why it’ll never ever get brought down. The occasional person with a famous status will go to prison here and there but the global **** ring will never fall. They are ALL at it. The richest of the rich. The powers of the world. we live in a really ****ed up world
True but that's how he’ll see it for the rest of his sad life. As will his dreadful ex-wife that sad people call ‘Fergie’ as if they know her. They’re absolutely awful people who the royalists worship, happily they're now being exposed as the sick parasites they are.
If a reasonable alternative...some sort of figurehead President (like the Irish) and an elected 2nd chamber was put to the electorate, I would definitely vote for it. Andrew being a p aedophile in itself does not mean we should abolish all the Saxe-Goberg Gotha's outright. Without knowing what would replace them.
I don't think we need to do anything tbh. Abolishing their role wouldn't take away their money, land rental income etc. So we may as well use them to maintain the pretence, which brings in tourist cash ... ... they're gradually making themselves redundant in any case.
I agree. Electing a "Presudent" every 4 years along with costs of maintaining the "office" would likely cost just as much and we would have to put up with even more useless political claptrap. As someone famous one said, its not the power that Royaly hold, rather the power they deny to others. I'm quite happy to bumble along with a smaller Royal family with little more than ceremonial duties.
A very small royal family at the very least. However, listening to the royal police officer there are 100 to 120 officers protecting each royal on an daily basis and then there are all the palaces and homes they own that need protection when they are not living there. The costs must be phenomenal. I’d rather spend that money on teachers, nurses and doctors.
One of my 'standing jokes' used to be about Prince Charles on the day after the Queen's funeral. He summons all his advisers and asks about all the powers he'll now have. "Errr, well you can have your face on coins and other currency." "And then? "Errr ........ stamps?"
My consideration of the royal family in footballing terms: The first team are solid and understand that the fans want to see hard work and 100% commitment to the team ethic and that representing the country is their life's work - they are pretty well remunerated for it, but broadly that group are well within the PSR guidelines. The bench is dire, full of Jack Rodwell soundalikes - forever whining that they don't get a first team slot whilst showing no desire or ability to actually earn one. In short - they're not fit to wear the shirt. Contracts should be terminated or they should be transferred to Saudi or the MLS and they should never represent this team again. An unnecessary drain on PSR which threatens to destroy the whole team.
I’m not normally a conspiracy theorist, in fact I take the piss, but strange how much press he’s got over last ten days, with, let’s be honest nothing startlingly new alleged, but it has served to get Rachel from accounts off the front pages, both her landlord activities and the upcoming budget of doom. personally I think he’s a liability to the royal family, him and fergie always have been, if the royals were all like them I’d be all for abolishing them, but they’re not. He needs to scuttle off and not be heard of again, but given he’s been convicted of nothing at all, I assume in a couple of years he’ll appear again at some function or other.
Not the best conspiracy theory tbh. I doubt the publication of the girl's book coincided with the first public denouncement of a Royal in hundreds of years and this. 'Rachel' made a minor clerical error that's now been rectified ... ... I really don't think Andrew would've been knocked off the front pages if she'd been spotted carrying wads of cash out of Downing Street
He hasn't - he should be part of an investigation and charged if enough evidence exists. The sleazeball hasn't once shown any empathy to the victims either.
