Andrew’s Arrest a Blow for British Monarchy; If Charged & Convicted It Will Be Very Serious
Former Prince Andrew's arrest is a blow for the British monarchy; if charged and convicted it will be very serious: former Editor, Financial Times, Lionel Barber, to Karan Thapar for The Wire. ......................................... In an interview to discuss the arrest of former Prince Andrew on suspicion of misconduct in public office and its implications and consequences for the British monarchy, the former Editor of the internationally respected Financial Times, Lionel Barber, has said this is a blow for the monarchy and it will become a very serious blow if Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is charged and convicted. However, Lionel Barber says that King Charles has done enough to distance the monarchy as an institution from the former Prince and there is no danger of Britain becoming a Republic. “Look, it’s taken a blow and if he’s charged and found guilty it will be a very serious blow but I think King Charles has done enough to distance the monarchy from Andrew and if they carry on in the way that they do there is no question of us turning into a republic or anything like that.” This 20-minute interview discusses the arrest, photographs that show a shocked and stunned Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the statement by King Charles, the nature of the potential evidence that could incriminate Andew Mountbatten-Windsor, both in terms of sharing sensitive material with Epstein and in terms of alleged sex trafficking, the damage that it has done and could further do to the monarchy as well as comparisons with the Peter Mandelson case.
