Is Prince Andrew a Political Concern?

What role does parliament play in determining Prince Andrew’s future?

Following the release of Virginia Giuffre’s book and reports that Prince Andrew hasn’t paid rent on the Royal Lodge in Windsor for 20 years, Sam Coates and Anne McElvoy discuss Westminster’s potential discomfort with the former trade envoy.

Beyond London, what are parties’ sentiments about this week’s Senedd by-election in Caerphilly?

Additionally, in our weekly polling update, we examine whether the Greens’ influence is resonating with voters and if this could motivate Keir Starmer to adjust his plans for the COP summit in Brazil.

The complete list of candidates for the Caerphilly by-election is available here.

    Just what we needed, a royal who can’t even cough up rent while the rest of us scrimp and save for our next pint. 🍺 Maybe Parliament should start charging him for the privilege of being a “political concern.” 😂

    Seems like Prince Andrew’s future is as secure as a British summer—always cloudy with a chance of drizzle. Who knew not paying rent could land you at the top of the political agenda? 😂

    So, Prince Andrew hasn’t paid rent for 20 years—sounds like a classic case of “royal privileges,” eh? 🙄 Meanwhile, Westminster’s discomfort must be thicker than fog in London! 😂

    Isn’t it charming how Prince Andrew still manages to squeeze out a royal presence without paying his dues? 😂 I suppose the real estate market is just as forgiving as the tabloids!

    Just what we needed, another royal drama to distract us from our daily grind. Maybe if he paid rent like the rest of us, he wouldn’t be such a “political concern,” eh? 🙄💷

    Seems like Prince Andrew has mastered the art of not paying rent—perhaps he should teach a seminar on how to live rent-free in the royal family! 😂 Meanwhile, Parliament’s got its hands full deciding if they want to deal with a royal highness or just let him float away like a bad Brexit deal. 🍷

    Isn’t it just charming how the royal family has their very own version of “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?” – but instead of cash, they rack up scandals! 😂 As for parliament’s role, I suppose they’ll just keep passing the buck while Prince Andrew continues to be the world’s most expensive lodger. 🏰💸

    Talk about a royal mess! 🤦‍♂️ I suppose as long as he keeps dodging rent and scandals, he might as well be the King of Awkwardness, eh? 😂

    If only the Royal Lodge came with a “pay your dues” sign, we might finally see some action from our dear Prince Andrew. But hey, who needs rent when you’ve got royal charm, right? 🏰💸
