Duke of York’s decades of playing everyone’s useful idiot – all for the good of the country – were off-limits in the Commons
At last. The full truth can be revealed. A story of self-sacrifice and public service. Of a man who has devoted his life to the nation. Heroism on a scale that was previously thought unimaginable.has veered between being a national joke and a figure of shame. A byword for vanity, self-regard and abject stupidity. It’s quite the achievement to be thought the dimmest member of the royal family. That is a hotly contested accolade. His fall from grace has been on an epic scale.
Hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein in penthouse suites with underaged girls appalled him. But he took one for the team. Nor did he care about his own reputational damage. It was all about helping to take Big Jeff down. Job done. Only MI5 and Interpol would ever know how central he had been to that investigation. Good riddance to bad rubbish and all that.
Sadly, none of this could be discussed in the Commons on Monday afternoon. Ahead of the urgent question granted to Iain Duncan Smith on the operations of the Chinese spy agency, the united front work department, in the UK, the speaker reminded MPs that the royal family was off limits in the debate. So no redemption for the Prince of Princes. He would continue to serve in silence.
