James O'Brien: It's astonishing, the most vulnerable people in society have £20 a week taken off them by the government but the Queen can find £12m to bail out her deviant son.

The grand old Duke of York, he had 12 million quid.
"He gave it to someone he’d never met, for something he never did."

[tomm]

....funny how Piers Morgan has no scorn for Andrew the chomo the way he does for Megan .

[darrenneil]

Nothing says “I’m innocent!” Like a massive pay off. 😂

[CeeGilesy]

Once the Queen has gone the monarchy should be abolished.

[johngalvin]

A rich man doesn't give money away unless it benefits him. One of life's cold hard facts.

[clairecrines]

Amazing, you have nailed exactly what most people ( everyone who is experiencing hardship) is feeling. Don’t ever stop. It’s so sorely needed

[gdwnet]

Andrew will never have to worry about heating or eating. He won't have his benefits cut for not having a job. He can sit in his massive house, not doing any work, not worrying about bills and STILL get more benefits in one week than a single mother who is struggling to feed herself and her kid gets in a month.
Something is very wrong with this country.

Finally, someone is speaking truth to power. Preach louder! What did Harry do to have received such vitriol from the British public as opposed to the situation at hand?

[jibsmokestack]

Have my issues with James but I’ll thank him for saying this on mainstream media. Needed to be said!

[andydean]

Prince Andrew should be in Belmarsh prison & Wikileaks, Julian Assange set free. Justice for all!

[englishsteve]

Here's the problem I have with the institution of royalty (not the individual royals) - It is the justification and the living, breathing symbol of acceptance, the acceptance of the notion that one man can be, simply by circumstance of birth, better than another man, more worthy than another man. I cannot accept that notion.

[dylanstevenson]

How can a settlement fee be acceptable for the crimes he has apparently committed ? This “settlement” nonsense should not be allowed with these crimes.

[Mark-izgg]

Paying a woman off he’s never met apparently! What a joke! Surely if you were innocent you would fight to clear your name !

[clivethomas]

The difference of reporting between Andrew & Harry is huge!

[slimgirls]

Finally, straight talk from a man with an intact backbone. Thank you, James.

[fenhen]

Prince Andrew is such a great guy, Giving money to a charity of someone he’s never met.

[czgibson]

You don't have to worry about obeying the law as long as you've got enough money to pay off a plaintiff.

[Kopesy]

I don't always agree with you, James, but you're spot on here. The mind boggles knowing that this is just 'the way of things'.

[FreshSmith]

Andrew settling out of court is basically an admission of guilt.

[beazvids]

the Grand old Duke of York,
He had 12 million quid,
He gave it to someone he'd never met
For something he never
