Oh great. So now the UK taxpayer is settling sex assault allegations.

Surely there must be a way to prove that the settlement is being paid by him and not the taxpayer? That's not an acceptable use of public funds, especially given the accusations related to these people.

 

[CurtessECarr]

Always gonna happen that way.

I'm no expert at law but I'm amazed that in this day and age, out of court 'settlements' are still a thing. How on earth can someone accuse someone else of something as bad as this, and then get shown some cash and it all goes away. I just don't get it. Obviously the cash softens the blow for the victim but it just doesn't sit right for me. It literally means that richer people can get away with more (no shock there lol).

He was never going to court on this. The royals absolutely didn’t want the publicity that a court case would have brought.

Mummy was coughing up before. Oh, hang on ............that does mean that we were financing this parasite.

The cvnt moves in dodgy circles. Can only assume they have got to her in some shape or form.

And Prince Andrew lived happily ever after.......

 

[Jack2jack]

Look people, these folk live on a totally different planet to us more mortals.
I just dont get the rationale behind the thinking.
Today's newspaper, tomorrow's, chip paper.
It all stinks.........of salt and vinegar

So much for the Ponce, sorry, the Prince being determined to go to court to clear his name against these scurrilous accusations. After all, he's never even met the girl.

My arse.

 

[JustJack]

Cases such as this should not be allowed to be 'settled' in a financial manner

Just imagine him being cross examined, drenched in sweat. It was never going to happen.

It wasn’t criminal. I’ve no doubt her story is 100% true, but if he wasn’t rich, high profile or royal, there would be no civil case. She knew he would settle, her strategy was to maximise the amount. He’ll have paid massively…or I hope it’s him…if it’s us, I hope that comes out, then he won’t be able to venture out of doors.

Just watching him on the news earlier made me feel like vomiting over the tv.

Even the cash hes gonna pay is public money, do you honestly think that'll ever be leaked? Unlikely and never in that order.
