No it's a real thing where paying for the lawyers to win your case will be more than paying out. I know some people also do it because they are guilty
Prince Andrew is out!

I'm not disagreeing. I'm just saying rich people will definitely pay out rather fighting in court and winning
Is that not because they are rich though? I wouldn't imagine poorer people would pay out simply as they lack the finances to do so.

newer spitting image (with some swearing as is typical)
meanwhile william&kate have been on bake off, I wondered why I stopped watching that a decade ago, but this seems same level as celebrity knock out, or meghan&co on netflix,
a shameless grab for the social media influencer points.

I wonder what would happen if there was some evidence that came out thst proved Andrew was innocent. I know it's impossible, he's guilty as f, but if some miracle happened for him and he was proven innocent. What could he do after that

Well yeah. But it's so beyond anything thars happened before that's why I thought it an interesting thing to speculate all over
The senate committee members interview said he could exonerate/cleanse himself if he contributes to their hearings (does he feel lucky)
but the senate committee is just like the stupid uk parliament committee (ie bbc this week) where folks are just expected to self flagellate in public, the witchfinder general.

Really it's only the financial cash stream that changes. He was always subject to law and doesn't have default diplomatic immunity unlike Charlie Boy.

Who payers £3m over the asking price with legit money? The hoops we mere mortals have to jump through when buying a property but this didn't raise a load of red flags?

Andrew was paid millions by oligarch with funds from firm linked to bribery scheme
Firm which part-funded Sunninghill Park purchase received "allegedly corrupt" payments, court documents say.

Seems a bit of a nothing story. Property is worth what someone pays. Some countries have a "starting price" with offers expected to exceed that. There's also the fact that the price paid will be pennies to those who bought it by the sounds of it, and owning a former princes houses may be worth more to them than getting the best price possible.Who payers £3m over the asking price with legit money?

This is the same place that, after being bought, was left to rot for 10 years before being demolished!
Yeah, total nothing burger...

So what was sold if it's been demolished?
So let me spell it out for you as you seem to be a little slow.
Andrew sold the house to an investment company that has been previously tied to bribes for £15m. Then THAT company left it to rot for ~10 years before knocking it down. You do know how time works right? As in if you sell a house, then after 10 or so years the next owner demolishes it it doesn't mean you sold him a pile of rubble..
This is a house that had only been built in the 1980's after the previous house had burnt down during, or just after WWII. So in no way was it dilapidated, it was built as a gift for Andrew by the Queen to her favorite son so nothing but the best..
Now to truly answer your question.. What was really sold was influence, an ear into the royal family etc!

By over paying for a meagre 3 mil for a property, comet change to these guys. I'm doubtful but if this is something you want to run with go ahead.

Unlikely true and not backed up by anything
And? Expesnvie houses in London get bought for too much and then the new owners rip out all the new interior and start again.

But see how you carefully chose what something is worth. One minute the house is nothing but the best from the queen of freaking England, and then next minute, it's billionaires can't pay anything over the asking for that house that is nothing but the best.
