Well, that’s progress and probably the step required to pluck the Windsors from the precipice.

Andrew’s is to face deprivation of his titles.

But will it work? At the end of the day, integrity is doing the right thing when nobody is looking.

The voluntary measures two weeks ago now seem like a tepid stab at the absolute minimum. This one again is clearly reactive against an ever-increasing shit storm.

They could have some the right thing in 2010 when the story broke.

The true shame of the Giuffre scandal, though, is that nobody seems to give a toss about all the other assorted toffs and moguls who visited Epstein Island. That’s probably why an extradition to the US won’t make it to the starting gate. Best to now allow Andrew to fade away into obscurity rather than popping up sweating on the witness stand.

As an aside, before all that is left of him is a skidmark, the blartist formerly known as Prince, who is now no longer formally known as Prince, has a YouGov approval rating of 13%.

Starmer’s Government is on 12%.

It’s one hell of an achievement to occupy a lower rung on the ladder than noncing.

And God only knows what warped perspectives those 12% have?
