“Oh the Grand Old Duke of York, he had 12 million quid, he gave it to someone he’d never met, for something he never did” #AbolishTheMonarchy 👑

NO, Andrew has NOT been stripped of any titles

“Despite the headlines Prince Andrew has not lost a thing. He has agreed not to use his titles. That's not a fitting response to accusations of serious criminal offences, including sexual abuse of teenage girls and corruption in public office from when he was trade ambassador.

Andrew has clearly lied time and again about his relationship with Epstein. It is not believable that senior royals didn't know about his actions or contact with Epstein. We also know that the royals have done all they can to protect Andrew, including paying off Virginia Guiffre.

The media line has been about how this is embarrassing for Charles or, as Andrew said, a 'distraction' for the king.

Personally, I don't care if this is embarrassing for Charles.

As I've been telling journalists over the last 24 hours, none of what the royals have done is about justice for young girls abused by rich and powerful men. It’s all about protecting the positions and privileges of other rich and powerful men.

So again ordinary people need to step up and act. Starting with writing to your MP and demanding a full-blown inquiry into royal Epstein links.

I'm currently working with the team to look at other avenues Republic can take, and how you can help challenge Andrew, the royals, the media and the politicians.

Enough is enough. It's been 15 years since Andrew was first accused of serious offences and a close relationship with Epstein. He has lied and lied about these accusations ever since.

To date his only punishment has been to not use silly medieval titles.

What needs to happen is a police investigation and an inquiry into royal links with Epstein. Who knew what, when and what have they been covering up?

Please write to your MP today and demand the inquiry.”

You would not accept the loss of titles as a fitting response to a government minister or private citizen being accused of sexual offences. Why Andrew?

Andrew remains a prince, a duke, a counsellor of state, a vice admiral in the navy, and in line to the throne. He also remains accused of abusing teenage girls and corruption in public office.

...and all this for the bargain price of just half a billion pounds of taxpayers money every year, a colossal bonfire of public finances
