    Yes!

    But do we believe he will ever spend a night in a police cell for any of the crimes he’s allegedly committed?

    Shame it’s not for the noncery, but I think he actually has a chance of getting convicted for this at least

  3. Finally. I can’t belive they hoped we’d accept his ‘ultimate punishment’ of being a commoner like the rest of us.

  4. > It comes after Thames Valley Police said they were assessing a complaint over the alleged sharing of confidential material by the former prince with late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein

    So it seems that it’s not related to Epstein sex offences but the leaking of government information and data out to Epstein and his palls

  5. Finally. Time to get rid of the royal family. He was protected for way too long. We shouldn’t have people above the law.

    King will be thinking if only we were back in the days when monarchs could lock away their troublesome relatives in the Tower whenever they wanted.

  7. I like the idea of some rough Gene Hunt-type just saying, ‘you’re nicked’. Then head butting him

  8. Gotta admit, given that they must have been planning this for a while them doing it on his birthday is delicious schadenfreude.

  9. Honestly, I know he won’t spend a day in prison and I know he’ll continue living a life of luxury. But this further destroys his character and will only lead him to think he’s being targeted, is more of a victim, it’s unfair and his family are also throwing him under the bus.

    Not to mention it’ll bring into the limelight more of his crimes with Epstein.

    Considering everything this moron has done, this is a big win and you have to take it as that because it’s the best we’ll get.

  10. Is this the first time the “misconduct in public office” offence has been used for a high ranking official rather than just police officers behaving badly and prison officers shagging their inmates?

  11. It’s a start. Now follow up with the rest of the scum and make sure you investigate the sexual abuse allegations that definitely did not happen where the victims were paid off to keep quiet.

    Anyone who believes he will see a day inside is in fairyland

    He is the epitome of entitlement, he will not go to prison

    I’m just picturing Charles lighting up a fat Cuban with a large whiskey on ice looking up to the sky and saying

    > “Now what do you think of your favourite, Mummy?!”

  14. Oh the Grand Old Nonce formerly of York,

    He and his Mum via the taxpayer paid £12 million quid,

    To a person he had never met,

    For something he absolutely, definitely, 100%, never did.
