Even if he's "not even royalty anymore" he's still associated with the King in people's minds. He WAS a royal when this was happening. This is all about public perception. Besides, I believe the dominoes will fall such that King Charles will be implicated as well. He was best buddies with Jimmy Savile, who was not only a prolific pedo but protected from powerful positions.
The royals, and the UK government, think throwing Andrew under the bus will take the heat off Charles.
Instead, I think it's going to lead straight to the king due to his decades-long friendship with Jimmy Savile, among other things. Diana knew. That's why she's gone.
They're not going to be able to hide this much longer.
The government are also trying to bury the story about court records being destroyed
I saw something last night on YT - 30 things that will happen once William becomes king. It was a quirky list of things that happens at any succession; he will own all the swans that are not claimed as well as any whales/dolphins within 3 miles of shore. There are 'regular things' - he becomes admiral of the navy/field marshall, his title changes, etc. But one thing mentioned is that once crowned sovereign, the sovereign can not be charged with crimes - technically, the crimes are against the crown, so how does the crown charge itself?
He won't be able to set foot into the House of Commons. The last king to do so was Charles I, and he was executed, so they avoid that little issue. So Charles the first set a precedent for Charles III. How that all holds up remains to be seen, but it was an interesting little tidbit that was tidily sandwiched in between a lot of other things.
They are in the Big Club and they use it on us. You don't go after the strongest targets first.
