#exPrince

@LillyHerself Sure, but that's a limited set, mostly without property. The big picture is much more complex, e.g. no new non-royal hereditary titles since 1983. What the monarchy can bestow or revoke is opaque even to insiders, as we have just seen with the #exPrince.

e.g. I personally hold an untitled honorary honour, a double-layered pantomime absurdity which does my head in if I try to think about it. As an Irish citizen, Irish govt approval was required, adding further layers.

After six decades of sycophancy, the #BBC seems to have removed ex-#PrinceAndrew from its grovel-to list. Instead, BBC diligently fulfils its new duty of pouring buckets of manure on the #exPrince, while the grovelling continues to other royals.

Of course, reports that this pair have been snorting up #cashforaccess are hardly news. But the story looks like an authorised leak. The BBC is shovelling royal manure on behalf of #KingCharles and William. #TheMadCountry

Gloves off. Even #BBCnews is publishing snark at the #exPrince formerly known as #PrinceAndrew. Rather good snark.

The #Briishestablishment is well-rattled by angry MPs, and by this week's #YouGov poll giving the #nonce a 91% unpopularity rating. These #SlowLearners finally click that the #monarchy's least-worst chance of survival is to appease the peasants by dumping on him from a height. It's open season for Andrew-hunting. 👍

Paragraph from the linked BBC News article: "A few clicks on Google will find decades of stories raising doubts about his suitability, often accompanied by pictures of Andrew in a top hat, like a renegade Monopoly piece."

UK media last week: #PrinceAndrew could be stripped of his titles only by an #ActOfParliament

Uk media now: #KingCharles has stripped #AndrewMountbattenWindsor of his titles.

All as if last week's reports had never happened. 🙄 It's #TheMadCountry

The grotesquely belated UK royal defenestration of #exPrince Andrew is too little too late. Even the soggy Starmerite #NewStatesman is now calling for an end to the monarchy.

But not yet. The NS is passive, and wants #PrinceWilliam to voluntarily quit when his father dies. #GoodLuckWithThat 🙄

Mike Small says it's time for the #ScottishIndependence movement to put a #ScottishRepublic at the centre of the campaign for an independent #Scotland👍 #NoKings
