The Grand Old Nonce of York: Andy's trial is GO

[Catalogue Trousers]

'Queen and Country. In the end,you gotta make a stand against 'em. You gotta say, "Yeah, well, when it comes down to it, and the Police and the Army are coming for you, and the barricades are up in your street, where do you stand? Whose side are you on, when dear old bloody England finally goes on the blink?" The World's very simple, really. In the end, you gotta take sides. You gotta do what you gotta do. I did.

'Her Majesty's Government did us well. Here we are in the Bahamas. Nice little hotel. Luxuriously appointed. Panoramic vistas. Quarter of a million - nice little nest egg. I'd do anything for my country. Know what I mean? Bye.'

Did Howard Brenton know something that we didn't? I just hope that Virginia Giuffre doesn't prove to be an Eddie Cass.



STOP THE PRESS! The shit's been stripped of military titles and the right to call itself HRH! Well, it's a start...

[touchingcloth]

Maybe he'll go with an impotence defence. Not been able to get it up for years, he'll claim. Sarah will testify to that if they chuck her a few thousand. It'd be worth it just for the 'FROM OLD FIRM TO NEWLY FLACCID' headlines.

The time he was alleged to have been with Giuffre are after the development of Viagra, so bad luck there. Then there was that woman who was convicted of raping her friend after she pretended to be a man, including using a prosthetic penis.

Try and flesh out the sweating story a bit more, Andy, mate. Be reet.

BREAKING: He can keep the HRH, but it now stands for

Spoiler alert

He's Really Horny

Was she underage of 17? Or is 17 underage? Sorry I'm old.

Does he get the titles back if he can de-nonce himself?

[Alberon]

Not going to get the chance. Phil is revving up the Fiat Uno we speak.

Was she underage of 17? Or is 17 underage? Sorry I'm old.

She was 17, which in the state they were in (I think the allegations against Andrew are just for crimes committed in New York) was underage. It's not underage in the UK, and it varies by state in the US.

[Zetetic]

It wouldn't have been okay if she was 18. (Edit: Even if the ability to pursue her case in this manner at this time is predicated on allegations of crimes relating to her age.)

[touchingcloth]

It wouldn't have been okay if she was 18.

No, it's two crimes. Her age is relevant because New York extended the statute of limitations for sexual crimes against minors, and that's what led to her bringing her suit when she did.

don't care about the details, i just want this man sobbing whilst crawling around on his hands and knees

[oy vey]

Does he get the titles back if he can de-nonce himself?

More likely if he settles he'll end up in a some form of nonce limbo, like Woody Allen or Roman Polanski. Unlike them however he has no discernible talents.

Trial by ordeal would be fucking ace. If we're going to tolerate archaic medieval shit like this, we embrace proper medieval punishments. Get him submerged in boiling oil.

Get him spitted.

[Butchers Blind]

Shave him!

[touchingcloth]

Blast him into space.

You fools. I specifically said without the nine-year-old boy. DEBLAST

Shaved, Spitted and Shat off into Space

Shaved, Spitted and Shat off into Space

I thought there were three other people on that flight with Shatner? And technically it was suborbital, they didn't really go into space.

This Was The One Thing He Didn't Want To Happen.

[Alberon]

How well does he get on with Charles? If not well, he better hope the trial ends before Mummy Deep-pockets pops her clogs.

EDIT FUCKS SAKE

Yes, this thread's nonce is sadly not yet being attacked with hammers.

What's this from?

[Ambient Sheep]

he should show us his arse before he does anything, im fascinated by his arse and what its like

Quite like Lord Porchester's, I'd imagine.


EDIT: Heh, @Lordofthefiles got there first, kinda.

[Ambient Sheep]

Probably he was strongly advised against the Newsnight interview but none of the people advising him suspected quite how much of a car crash it would be if he were to ignore them, and they won't be letting him go rogue again.

He was, and they did.  His own media adviser told him not to do it, and when he arrogantly went ahead anyway,  saying it would be fine, said adviser promptly resigned on the spot before he even did it.

I can't find the piece now, but apparently if you disagree with him you get told to "fuck off out my office" so I can imagine people back down (or don't even bother raising objections in the first place).

Top bloke, shame he's in so much trouble.

[Ambient Sheep]

Yes, that rings a bell, seems we probably read the same article.

[Crenners]

Why do these royal all look the same
