The fall of Andrew reveals the folly of monarchy

“Coupled with the absence of anything like due process, in which allegations could be tested and closure reached, there’s no reason to think that there will be any let up in the pressure to keep punishing Andrew. This really is a trial without any discernible end, a media feeding frenzy that will never be quite sated. Still, the royal family’s Andrew problem didn’t come out of the blue. He is and always has been a liability, lacking in judgement and sense. Epstein wasn’t his only dubious playmate. … this provides a timely reminder of one of the main problems with having a hereditary monarchy in the first place. People as flawed, weak and idiotic as Andrew are given prominent public positions, and a great deal of wealth, solely according to having been born to a particular family.” (10/31/25)
