IS STARMER USING PRINCE ANDREW AS A DIVERSION FROM MANDELSON?

 #PrinceAndrew #KeirStarmer #PeterMandelson #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV #Live #UKPolitics #Monarchy #LineOfSuccession

 🔥 The Question the Media Won't Ask Let me be clear before the shouting starts. I don't like Prince Andrew. I wouldn't have him round for Sunday lunch.

 But I do believe in one thing this country used to stand for: innocent until proven guilty. So why the sudden rush to rip him out of the line of succession? Why the coordinated outrage? Why now? And why does it just so happen to suit Keir Starmer — a man who's openly republican and has no love for the monarchy at all?

While everyone's distracted by princes, the media goes strangely quiet about Peter Mandelson, Labour's fixer-in-chief, and Starmer's continued backing of him. Is Andrew being used as a smokescreen? A diversion? A convenient villain to stop us asking the wrong people the right questions?

Today, we say the bit you're not meant to say out loud. Join in and tell me what you think.

Let me hear it.

0:23.8

This is an extra show, so let's see how it goes.

0:27.4

Let's discuss this.

0:28.7

I believe there should be more focus on Mandelson.

Get your comments in the comment box and we'll get discussing what the mainstream,

0:43.2

mainstream media is too terrified to actually address.

0:48.2

Are you ready?

Let me just say this slowly, though, so nobody can twist it.

I'm not here to defend Prince Andrew.

1:08.0

I don't like him. I don't admire him. I don't care about his reputation. I don't respect him. I wouldn't invite him around for Sunday lunch. And I certainly,

1:12.1

certainly wouldn't let him babysit my kids.

1:15.6

But I'll tell you what I do care about.

1:18.1

It's justice.

1:19.7

Because the moment that we decide that we don't like someone

1:24.9

is enough to throw out innocent until proven guilty, then none of us,

1:30.5

you, me, and anyone else listening or watching this podcast are safe. The moment you give that power

1:37.9

to politicians, we are literally all, well, I don't suppose I should use this word at a moment,

buggered.
