Someone has to be charged with a serious crime before being remanded.  BTW how many celebrity parties around the World did you attend when you were a similar age to Prince Andrew in the photo? Now that's downright laughable.  So no "eligible" man, who get's lots of offers, can't be a perv?  Too many high and mighty celebs, have been brought down by their penchant  for "something a little different".  Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Did he use his position so as to use a military copta to take him on private trips . If so why cannot the other ex service people have the same advantage . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

crookesey   635 #116 Posted November 3, 2021 My son’s longest standing mate is an RAF helicopter pilot, he does the incredibly boring alongside the extremely dangerous. He goes home to his wife and kids as and when duty allows and doesn’t use his rank and military record to go beyond the confines of decency.

Do you understand that or do you base your unfounded suggestion on media speculation and sensationalism. It is not because a Royal is being accused, it is a case of simple justice which you appear to be missing and would rather have a trial by media without hearing the relevant evidence. 13 minutes ago, crookesey said: My son’s longest standing mate is an RAF helicopter pilot, he does the incredibly boring alongside the extremely dangerous.

Good for him, I think the vast majority of service people do not try to brag about their rank or job.  Edited November 3, 2021 by harvey19 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

A rare post I'm totally in agreement with.  Celebs (money for nothing and the chicks for free, they say) are as numerous as the groupies and sly opportunists they attract.

crookesey   635 #119 Posted November 3, 2021 Andrew appears to have a habit of wanting everything to be fair and fine, unless he’s mixing with his own type  someone is always going to take advantage of him. It amazes me that the royals aren’t out and out cynics, as they have always been the ‘prey’ of the good looking wannabes, male and female. Charles is aware of this as both Diana and Camilla came from his side of the fence, William has gone for working class, always a risk in his position as she doesn’t fully know the rules, fingers crossed for them.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
