Time for the NZ Govt to act on Prince Andrew

Prince Andrew is the Colonel-in-Chief of the Royal New Zealand Army Logistic Regiment.

His only real defence against the allegations he slept with a 17 year old teenager supplied by Jeffrey Epstein, is that he only slept with her in countries or states where the age of consent is 16, and didn’t in the areas where it is 18.

From a criminal law perspective this is of course very important. From the perspective of whether he should be the Colonel-in-Chief of a Royal NZ Army regiment, it is not important. His behaviour disqualifies him.

Surely it is time for the NZ Govt to remove him from this honorary role.
