    Queen cuts Andrew adrift: Duke of York is stripped of ALL his military titles and royal patronages, will no longer use HRH in official capacity and is told he will have to face sex assault lawsuit as a 'private citizen'
    • Move to shred his ties with the military is likely to be particularly painful for Andrew, a Royal Navy veteran
    • Duke of York will also be banned from using the styling 'HRH' in any capacity, according to a royal source
    • News is a further blow for Andrew as he considers whether to press ahead with trial or settle with accuser
    • Experts say the duke must do a deal 'for the sake of the Queen', who is entering her Platinum Jubilee year
    • He was spotted today in the back of a Range Rover while being driven from his home in Windsor Great Park

    Seems like only a few days ago I was reading that the royals were aggressively threatening outlets reporting on this matter up until the point where it was impossible to cover up.

    I don't give a shit about his royal heritage other than that if he's guilty he should do his time just like anyone else convicted of his crime.

    Why do they have "royals" anyway? That shit should just go away.

    The fact that it even took this long is glaring.

    IOW, the Queen doesn't want this coming back on the Royal Assets. What they need to due after they win this one is sue the crown for protecting him as long as she did.

    They should still throw his ass in prison if he loses.
