Prince Andrew speaks publicly on BBC for first time since scandal
- Thread starter BarringGaffner
- Start date
Notice how "he does not remember" certain things in order to give himself wriggle room should more evidence be found and yet other things he remembers in exact detail. There's go to be a paper trail of where he was at certain dates, if not him directly then his security team.
His PR person apparently quit when he wouldn't budge on doing this!
He said he couldn't have raped an underage girl because he was attending a Pizza party at the time she said they were together.
I think many people who support the royal family for some reason won't care.
They didn't care about her close ties to Jimmy Savile or Rolf Harris, Charles' attempt to cover up Peter Ball's crimes, and loads of other historical cases of the royal family being connected to child abuse.
He said he could not have been at the club becuse he took his daughter to a specific named Pizza Express that night.
"Do I regret the fact that he has quite obviously conducted himself in a manner unbecoming? Yes."
Quite the way to describe a convicted sex offender.
That alone tells me that Andrew was well on board with what Epstien was doing.
For someone who claims he had no idea and took no part in this things his lack of empathy for the victims is remarkable.
His only concern is his name is being dragged through the mud, screw the victims.
The reasons Andrew gave for staying at epstiens properties are ridiculous. His a prince ffs and could stay wherever he wanted.

Time to wheel out some feel good royal stories to brush this under the carpet with. Who's up for having a baby next?
Soon enough not even the Vatican PR people will be able to fix this, and they are quite the masters of their craft.
but of course, a young child's birthday was not going on till late in the night!
how could be possibly get to Tramps at midnight and then rape a groomed child ?
lock it up
he also thought Epstein's "staff" were all underage girls, and perfectly normal.
absolutely, anyone who protects this child rapist is scum.
Sarah Ferguson is top of the list.
yep, just stayed there for a couple of days. He must've really yelled at him for a long time, what a good man.
Interestingly all the Sunday scum papers here in the UK were leading with very negative headlines about him. Clearly this interview has not had the effect he hoped for.
Her entire lineage made their fortune on raping and pillaging lands full of men, women, and children. This is nothing for her morally, it's just embarrassing.
And of course at the end of all of this shit, there's a random person having to work on the weekend.
I mean it's funny, but kinda sucks that the Pizza Express social media person is probably gonna face more consequences from this interview Andrew the Unsweating.
oh god, I can see it now
a flashback, with somewhat ominous music in the background of a series of wordless scenes: we see Jeffrey Einstein and Prince Andrew laughing together at a party; party moves along, we see Prince Andrew talking to a young woman (girl?), innocently enough at first, until he places his arm around her waist; eventually, deep into the night, we see Prince Andrew and that young woman (again, girl?) seemingly leaving the party together, but then the flashback ends and the question of What Happened? is left unresolved
back to current day: we see signs, architecture, etc., etc. that indicate we are in the US, sirens, blah blah blah, we are witnessing Jeffrey Einstein's arrest; cut to the monarchy, where we see Queen Elizabeth, Prince Charles, whoever else discussing this or that important event; cut to an incredibly solemn looking servant of the Royal Household, the Lord Chamberlain or some shit, marching down the hall to deliver them the news of Epstein's arrest, which of course he'd been preparing for for years but now the time as come to deal with the skeletons in Prince Andrew's closet
skipping ahead and around: Prince Andrew is called in, and this is the first time we see his old ass self in the show; the once innocent boy is now a bumbling, nervous, arrogant fool; he continuously denies all wrongdoing, even to his own family, but somewhere in the corner of his eye, you can see the guilt manifesting; in the end, the show doesn't answer with 100% certainty what he did, but makes it obvious he did wrong, with malicious intent or out of tragic stupidity you aren't sure, and the last scene is Prince Andrew in the church, praying, with a picture of his deceased grandfather in his hands
Corrupted Honor
In 500 years they will dig his body up from a car-park behind Nu-Lidl and weep about how beastly the commoners were to him.
They can have a society called the 'white prick' dedicated to clearing his name
The joke is that they never even really do that.
I mean they were the figureheads of the British Empire when it raped the world, and some of that stolen treasure got into their pockets, but they were never really the true leaders of the country, not this house.
They're fucking grifters.
What happens if I told you I can make you like Piers Morgan once in your lifetime?
Just once, and for 50 seconds, but still.

ACTUALLY IT'S NOT PEDOPHILIA REALLY-
I've never seen that defense used in real life before.
"There's a difference between a minor and a child" - Someone defending some dodgy anime TV show
Reading the excerpts I can't imagine how badly your PR people and lawyers would be shitting themselves after that debacle.
"I don't sweat" and "I spent 4 days breaking up" jfc just retire from public life you've lost your privileges.

It's probably one of the biggest train-wreck interviews of our times. It shows the disregard the elite have for the law/classes below them that Prince Andrew actually thought the shit he cooked up to say in a broadcast interview would get him out the other end in a better light.
Then that woman above says, "hold my champagne Andrew" and goes on national television to say prostituting minors is not paedophilia. Imagine defending Epstein on national television.
Good on him.
Sad thing is people probably agree with her too, the papers and such doing countdowns to legality for young celebs, see Charlotte Church, no idea if they do it now but I doubt media society has changed much by preying on young celebs like peices of meat. The Mail with their think of the children pieces then on another page check out this celeb in a bikini or something.
The upper glass live on another planet, unfortuately, our planet.
His just hired PR guy quit when Andrew agreed to do the interview. I'm not even sure he has a team outside the palaces inhouse team
I doubt he was listening to palace people either, as the royal PR outfit is one of the slickest around.
Thank god it made me realize how dedicated conspiracy nuts must be!
They gave bloody 16 year old Charlotte church arse of the year too iirc.
Raising him is the least she's done. The cover-up must have passed through her go ahead, so she is protecting a child-rapist.
