Marina Hyde on "Not a nonce" Andrew's latest issues.

I heard that the Duke of York had ten thousand men.

If it was “men” there would in my view not be an issue.

I'm sure that in the past Prince Andrew has boasted about sleeping with over 1000 women, a boast that could yet come back to haunt him because firstly it makes it look like he is some kind of sex addicted and secondly if he has slept with some many women can he honestly testify that all these women were above the age of consent?

Hurrah for his highness

Just so I have it clear, the head of state is using taxpayer's money to defend their family member accused of sex crimes?

Banana republic would be a step up from banana constitutional monarchy.

In which Nonce Andrew describes an underage victim of sexual abuse as a "slutty girl".

Looks like another case of the headline not matching the article.

The only quote I can find using that term is this one.

"The court papers quote Crystal Figueroa, the sister of one of Giuffre’s ex-boyfriends, who claims she was asked by Andrew’s accuser for help in recruiting minors: “She [Giuffre] would say to me, ‘Do you know any girls who are kind of slutty?’”

Have I missed something?

Marina Hyde on the latest developments.

At first glance it might seem bizarre that the guy who inspired such outrage for completely failing to express sympathies for Epstein’s victims during his infamous Newsnight interview should be doubling down on that front. Indeed, that original glaring omission was followed by a friend of his materialising in the newspapers to insist that, while the prince didn’t regret the interview itself, “the fact he was unable to appropriately or sufficiently convey his sympathy for the victims of Epstein is of course a source of regret”.

Is it bollocks. There are two overriding impressions to be gleaned from this latest filing. One, that Prince Andrew has finally decided he’s in the dogfight of his life, and will now say absolutely anything to prevail in it. And two, that his total blindness to the silly little tragedies of Virginia Roberts Giuffre and all the silly little girls like her has lifted not one iota, despite everything that has happened. I don’t know about being biologically incapable of sweating, but on this evidence he certainly seems biologically incapable of having the first or faintest clue.
