Incorrect. Andrew is giving the money to her charity. Take a look at that charity’s accounts and see what it pays her. Tax wise it’s the best way. Plus it makes all the wokes happy. Win win

Maybe se can buy a new photo shop program for her PC.
The current one is not that good

A statement from their lawyers said the duke would pay an undisclosed sum to Ms Giuffre and make a "substantial donation" to Ms Giuffre's charity in support of victims' rights.

As far as I can see, US law only allows ‘reasonable’ compensation to the Trustees of charities. It doesn’t seem likely they could be used as a tax vehicle. In any case any significant income has to be declared to the IRS. Tax advantage comes with donation of funds not via income. So not relevant in this case

Imagine thinking a bloke who paid £12m to avoid going to trial is innocent.

Whichever way you view it Andrew got caught hook line and tinker.

Andrews life is now totally changed. I'm sure he'll have plenty of cash left, but he's also got to pay his totally useless legal team too. And probably the other side as well.

His mates will still have him over to stay at their country retreats, and he'll still have lots of holidays.
Parents might be a bit more mindful if they have teenage daughter(S).

His completely useless legal team did what he and those around him told them to do.

Any sensible client would have settled an eternity ago and put it down to saving the House of Windsor and not an admission of guilt.

A bigger example of 'privilege' from the 'woke' monarchy I doubt you could find.

Out of interest, why are the monarchy woke? The word seems so versatile in it's application I struggle to keep up.

Support for diversity, equality, inclusion, green issues, anti racism and all the other 'woke' middle and higher class fantasies and ideologies that identify the 'woke' are all on easy display from both Charles, William and Ginger....it's a joke, the monarchy wouldn't even exist if those ideologies were followed.

Even the Queen compared this generation with the war generation in terms of greatness....not woke perhaps but total bullsh1t.

How differently might this case have worked out had the girl been British rather than American? Imagine some pressure may have been applied.

I detest the royal family and actively try to avoid coverage of them, so I can't say I'm familiar with any comments on those issues.

'Greatness' is a very vague term particularly when comparing generationally - what made someone great 100 years ago is very different to now.

Not necessarily - "On this day (Feb 16th) Howard Carter opened the inner burial chamber of Egyptian Pharaoh Tutankhamun's tomb and finds the sarcophagus" - wait that was in 1923, only 99 years ago, my apologies.

 


Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

I use to be an ardent monarchist....back in the days.

While I don't think think most in that family are bad people - charity work for example. I do think they are products of their time. Over time I've come to realise that the Monarchy are just a support chorus for whatever time they exist in mimicking the culture. It's just another institution that will say anything and pretty much do anything to stay in place.

Instead of using the tax payers money to get out of the charge and borrowing someone else’s helicopter to get to golf. Well, lesson learned there then.

Money from his small estate, sale of his chalet in Verbier and from Queen from her duchy income.

Nothing from taxpayer unless you know otherwise.
