OPINION - Which of Prince Harry and Prince Andrew is worse? It's hard to tell — and time for King Charles to sort them out
Query: which of the uncle-nephew pair that is Prince Andrew and Prince Harry makes the heart sink faster and sooner? The very words “close confidant of the Duke of York” on the news this morning made a nation think, “uh-oh” before we even learned that the confidant in question was a) one of Andy’s inner circle and b) associated with the Chinese Communist party and c) is now excluded from the UK (having lost his appeal in court against that judgment) as a risk to national security. Another of the Duke’s little lapses of judgment, one of a series that began, I would say, with his marriage to Sarah Ferguson in 1986.
