@cstross Holy cow!

@cstross If he is convicted and jailed, would he be in with the general population, isolated for his own safety as is commonly done with sex offenders (“Not On Normal Courtyard Exercise”, as the possibly apocryphal acronym goes), or would he have the privilege of one of his residences being designated as a prison and little else changing?

@cstross
What’s with the repeated use of adjectives consistently and strenuous, but no mention of vile, treasonous or lecherous

@cstross
I assume that the armed police guy was occupied on the phone with his boss when the arrest team came to the door in marked cars.
And I bet he didn't get thrown in the back of a paddy wagon.

Trying to assemble a violin from raw gluons. The damned thing have no musical sense. But that's OK, neither do I.

@Uilebheist
An odd desire, to keep the defrocked alleged sex criminal free, and lock up the best king we have had this century.
Having made your desolation, let's call it peace.

@acb @cstross
His Former Majesty's Prison Sandringham?

@masek They got him on the *easy to prove* charge. Others may follow. I suspect he'll get the full Rolf Harris treatment, whenever the King needs to throw the proles another cookie.

@cstross "Off to Tyburn for you, sonny Jim"

@Footle

@masek @cstross

That is Trump’s biggest concern, losing the wealth?

He can just declare sex scandal as unreal.

Ever since they got Capone.

@cstross Hell must be freezing over and definitely some horses disturbed.

@cstross
I can't help thinking he is being used as a distraction from people guilty of more/worse crimes mentioned in the Epstein files

@cstross a new resident for the Tower perhaps.

@cstross is it even a monarchy if the people can't execute a monarch when they're total shit or the crops are failing (or both)

@cstross bretaña, mañana, séra republicana

The case of the Crown vs Andrew Mountbatton-Windsor...?

Interesting times!

@Nibor4000 @cstross fortunately we can deal with more than one bastard at a time.

@Linza @cstross I think crops would fail even worse if that Gobshite was offered up for sacrifice.

@dgold If the King handles this properly (for PR values of "properly") it'll keep England a monarchy for at least another generation. (Scotland is already majority republican.)

@GF493D @Linza I view Randy Andy as a proxy sacrifice for Chuckles the Third. Minimum Viable Monarch to exsanguinate to appease the media gods.
