I can't help thinking he is being used as a distraction from people guilty of more/worse crimes mentioned in the Epstein files

@cstross a new resident for the Tower perhaps.

@cstross is it even a monarchy if the people can't execute a monarch when they're total shit or the crops are failing (or both)

The case of the Crown vs Andrew Mountbatton-Windsor...?

Interesting times!

@Nibor4000 @cstross fortunately we can deal with more than one bastard at a time.

@Linza @cstross I think crops would fail even worse if that Gobshite was offered up for sacrifice.

@dgold If the King handles this properly (for PR values of "properly") it'll keep England a monarchy for at least another generation. (Scotland is already majority republican.)

@GF493D @Linza I view Randy Andy as a proxy sacrifice for Chuckles the Third. Minimum Viable Monarch to exsanguinate to appease the media gods.

@cstross Love your optimism ️

@cstross @Linza Maybe all we really need is a barBq. Charles can bring his big fat pedo #sausage fingers.
