I never thought I would say this, but I would rather be Boris. Getting stuffed in a job way is preferable to getting stuffed a prison way (ok realise it’s a civil case - but that’s not as funny)0

I have enjoyed Frankie Boyle's jokes about Prince Andrew on his BBC show. There's a few on his "unseen/best of" show on iplayer.0

That pretty much covers it. Obviously I don't think much of Johnson, but I don't think he's a nonce.tlw1 said:I never thought I would say this, but I would rather be Boris.

Unfortunately I don't think mummy's boy will ever see the inside of a prison cell, especially not one shared with a very large cellmate that's looking for something extra.0 -
Prince Nonce is a bit like Man Utd, all gone to shlt post Fergie.2

The air time and news coverage of a real, genuine English Prince in court, in the US will be huge, massive. Beyond compare. We wouldn't hear the end of it.
The Ambassador's wife Anne Sacoolas did not come back to the UK after killing Harry Dunn on his bike to face questions.
So I am pretty sure that Prince boy will wriggle and squirm and do everything in his powers to stay in the UK.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -

I’m not sure if it’s a negotiation tactic but the victims lawyer has stated she wants more than financial compensation.
And considering Andrew remains a person of interest from a criminal investigation into child sex trafficking it might be rash to consider Andrews and the monarchy’s troubles are resolved with the civil case.

Take it to court, win the case, get compensation then sell books and film rights?ugo.santalucia said:

Much more lucrative than a non-disclosure cash in. Riskier though.
Might just "disappear" now that I think about it.The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

His reputation will never recover anyway, even if he were to go to court and win. Anyone with more than an autonomic nervous system can see that he was a client of a pimp. Regardless of whether there were direct financial payments, he was involved because there was a benefit to the pimp.
Since he's effectively lost already, the most likely outcome is a settlement and we will never know for how much. The main argument will be how or if he apologises. I think we will not get that, other than an acknowledgement of the facts that some of his best friends are criminals.
After this has died down, the next thing the public will hear about Andrew is a private family funeral, in about 20 years from now. Possibly some public incredulity about the civil list financial numbers in the meantime.

Guilty of being a overly loyal friend and client to a child trafficer.
This Andrew saga has probably helped his children who were constantly being thrust into the lime light by Fergie to boost her own profile - bet she wants to keep herself out of the public eye nowadays.
My parents knew andrew a bit as my dad trained as a navy pilot with him. they always thought he was gay, not a paedo.0 -
BBC had Victoria Derbyshire outside No. 10 a few minutes ago, someone in there has apparently tested positive, so Boris can isolate in the fridge after yesterday's bad day at the office... Taking a tip from Novak and faking his test result.

A former employer of mine was in Iceland around the time of Prince Charles's 'stag holiday' there. It was a very private affair with a number of individuals whom were well known as gay and Charles knew them well.shirley_basso said:Guilty of being a overly loyal friend and client to a child trafficer.

It doesn't bother me in a Womack sort of way, it's just that people like this are traditionally obligated to live to a socially acceptable norm. That's sad really - if the speculation about Charles's sexuality were true. I wonder if it were possible in years to come that we could have an openly gay queen or king? Given the fact William is probably going to live to 110, we won't ever know.

If he settles... is it taxpayers' money on the line?

It will be fudged as from "private income", ignoring that a feckless moron like him would, without the coincidence of birth and vast quantities of inheritance and public funds with which to play in the business sand pit (or employ people to do so for him), be of very modest income indeed. i.e. All his income flows directly or indirectly from the public purse.ugo.santalucia said:If he settles... is it taxpayers' money on the line?

Unfortunately there still are people who are behind him - I'm stuck with at least two of the cretins at work (which, although I 100% state is far, far, far from the most cerebral organisation for 70% of the people who are there) are the morons who will keep on voting for him.....

They'll get behind whoever takes over in a heartbeat.
Beats the alternative they have in the US where they have just stuck with the old guy rather than the party.0 -
