According to alot of reports Ive been reading over the last few days Prince Andrew appears to keeping some-what dubious company to say the very least.A convicted paedophile and a man accused of torture to mention but two. I was listening to an interesting discussion yesterday-one side arguing that his position as Special Representative for International Trade and Investment was now untenable the other arguing that he has done wonders for trade and his access to leaders is way more than what an ordinary representative could acheive due to his Royal connections. I see hes due in Saudi soon to discuss arms deals.Is this appropriate?Saudia Arabia is not exactly renowned for its record on human rights and yet we have a royal planning to go there to sell them arms whilst around them ordinary people are fighting to remove dictatorships and autocratic regimes. Something seems very wrong about all of this

He's definitley gone down hill compared to his days of cavorting with Koo Stark

It makes you cringe, all this bowing & scraping, sycophantic stuff. Also, wouldn't you think Prince Andrew has had enough banquets, gifts, dancing girls or whatever the hell they give him when he goes on these jaunts.....maybe not, perhaps he is addicted to the "good life" or "very, very good life". Give me the simple life, anytime! (apart from my two weeks holiday!). ;D
