    When the Himalayan peasant meets the he-bear in his pride,
    He shouts to scare the monster, who will often turn aside.
    But the she-bear thus accosted rends the peasant tooth and nail.
    For the female of the species is more deadly than the male.

    From this link:

    "GHISLAINE Maxwell could strike a plea deal, exonerate Prince Andrew from any wrongdoing and walk in a few years,"

    No guarantee of ever walking again if she doesn't

    If Andy-Pandy is in *any* way guilty of any wrong-doings, he should be EXPOSED accordingly and face punishment for it, the SAME as any other citizen of the UK. He should NOT be treated as 'special' in any way, or given any special protection.

    Most of all, there should be no 'underhand coercion' applied to Maxwell, in order to get her to 'behave' in a certain way and hide the truth. The TRUTH should be allowed come out in a court of law, in its FULL glory, whatever the REAL truth is.

    *THAT* is what should happen - nothing else! I don't give a fuck about the Royal Family [I can't stand the bastards], but it's about time their shady shenanigans came out and were known to the general public, so that everyone can see EXACTLY WHAT they are, instead of having the wool continually pulled over their eyes!!

    Which, curiously, is not something you ever see being done or even threatened in male prison telly or films. Yet they must have a laundry press the same as the women do.
    Do you really think she is in G pop?
    My guess is she should be in protective custody under 24 hour supervision.
    I 'll bet the price on her head is worth a crown. Pun intended.

    Do whatever it takes to get the manky tart to sing like a canary, and finger Andy-Pandy, so I can laugh like fuck when his peado-ass is sent down!

    I think that there has been quite enough digital manipulation going on in this case :
