1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,840
Speaker 1: In the Brady UK correspondence with us evening Inda.

2
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 2: Hey, Heather, how are you good? Good?

3
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:08,360
Speaker 1: Yeah? Loving the fact that everyone's calling for Andrew to

4
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:10,320
Speaker 1: be stripped of as dukedom. But it's not going to happen,

5
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 1: is it.

6
00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:14,120
Speaker 2: Well, there is a mechanism and apparently it was done

7
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:17,440
Speaker 2: in World War One when some dukes decided that they

8
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:20,680
Speaker 2: would fight for Germany rather than fight for the United Kingdom.

9
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:25,440
Speaker 2: So they managed to take away duke titles or dukedoms

10
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,639
Speaker 2: over a century ago when the Germans were involved. And

11
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 2: you wonder who's the bigger threat nowadays? You know, Andrew

12
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 2: has destroyed his own reputation and I think Charles and

13
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,480
Speaker 2: his advisors are very very much aware that this man

14
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 2: is bad news, and they've known for a long time now.

15
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,160
Speaker 2: The reason he's back in the front page is today

16
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,560
Speaker 2: there are calls for the title to be taken away,

17
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,160
Speaker 2: the dukedom. He's also a member of the Knights Garter.

18
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,639
Speaker 2: So if you notice the email he sent to Epstein

19
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 2: in twenty eleven saying we'll play again some more soon

20
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 2: with four exclamation marks, what does that mean? You know,

21
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 2: poor Virginia Giufrey, her family, everything she has been through

22
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 2: there is a mechanism available. I think the only thing

23
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 2: that can't take away is the word prince, because he

24
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:11,039
Speaker 2: is the King's brother. But I think Andrew ultimately is

25
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 2: going to be stripped of absolutely everything.

26
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 1: Do you think so? Because the argument is inda, this

27
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 1: is the German and I've spent a lot of time

28
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: talking about this. The argument is you can strip him right,

29
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: and that gets rid of that problem. But then what

30
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 1: you have is a guy who hasn't He doesn't have

31
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: any support networks anymore, so he goes rogue like Harry.

32
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 1: So actually, for Charles, like there is a point at

33
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 1: which Charles needs to give him just enough to kind

34
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 1: of keep him behave keeping him to keep him behaving properly.

35
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 1: Don't you think no?

36
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 2: Because the problem with that argument is Harry has half

37
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 2: a brain. Andrew has none. Okay, Andrew has no brain whatsoever.

38
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 2: He is just he reeks of entitlement. I've actually had

39
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 2: dinner with the guy. He's one of the dullest men

40
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 2: you could be anywhere near. And I think my suspicion

41
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 2: is the royal family at the highest level and the

42
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 2: UK stablishment. Now there are even more dangerous emails out there.

43
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 2: I think what we're seeing is just the tip of

44
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 2: the surface.

45
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 1: Well, how does he make his money if they strip him?

46
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 2: Well, he managed to find an awful lot of money

47
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 2: to pay off Virginia Dufrey twelve million pounds, Starling twenty

48
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 2: four million dollars then z I mean, you know there

49
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 2: was talk of money coming from China. Everything he has

50
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 2: done there with the pitch at the palace event, clearly

51
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 2: there are revenue streams. He's not on his uppers, but

52
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 2: I think Charles wants him out of that big house.

53
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 2: He ain't going to be invited for Christmas every again.

54
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 2: You're not going to see him on the balcony, and

55
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 2: I think they're hurting him where it hurts the most,

56
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 2: the whole kind of reputation. He thrives on this pomp

57
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 2: and ceremony and that ain't ever happening again.

58
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: Wow, okay, right, interesting to see how that plays out there. Now, Now,

59
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 1: what happened to Higgs Sith's playing. Do we know how

60
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: it got the crack?

61
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 2: We don't know how it got the crack, but it

62
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 2: led to depressurization in the cabin very very quickly. So

63
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 2: it was a military version of the Boeing seven to

64
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 2: five seven, on his way back from a night meeting

65
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,519
Speaker 2: in Belgium, and we're now learning that he had to

66
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,919
Speaker 2: land very very quickly in England at an RAF base,

67
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 2: RAF Mildenhall. Now I've been there. It's pretty much an

68
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 2: American air base. We've filmed in there before, so in

69
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,959
Speaker 2: name only is it really RAF. It's mostly American air personnel.

70
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 2: So he's with his own people, treated very very well.

71
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 2: And then he took the social media very quickly to

72
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 2: say journey back under way, thank god. So no damage

73
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 2: done and his own people patched up. He's playing very

74
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 2: very quickly.

75
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 1: Oh that's very good news. And what's going on with

76
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 1: the Irish presidential election?

77
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 2: Yes, so I'm in Ireland at the moment. I'm in Cork.

78
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 2: We're filming my TV show Roundtable using the presidential election

79
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 2: as a peg to look at lots of different aspects

80
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 2: of Irish life at the moment, at how people are feeling.

81
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 2: So next Friday there will be a presidential election. Michael D.

82
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 2: Higgins is stepping aside after fourteen years, very popular, charismatic

83
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 2: and respected man. However, the candidates to replace him, there

84
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 2: are two left in the race still, Catherine Connolly who's

85
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 2: a left wing independent lady Heather Humphreys, who're more of

86
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 2: a conservative really from one of the main establishment parties.

87
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 2: They're on the ballot. They're the only two candidates still

88
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 2: in the race. The problem is the ballot paper was

89
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 2: printed weeks ago and a Gaelic football manager from Dublin

90
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 2: called Jim Gavin, who was in the race, has pulled

91
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:24,239
Speaker 2: out over a property landlord tenant scandal from twenty years ago.

92
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 2: His name is still on the ballot paper and a

93
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 2: lot of people are so disillusioned with politics, Polisians and

94
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,920
Speaker 2: life in general and cost of living. The whisper is

95
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 2: an awful lot of Irish people are going to spoil

96
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 2: their ballot and vote for Jim Gavin. So we have

97
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 2: a situation where a guy who's not actually running for

98
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 2: president anymore by next Friday night could be president. A

99
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 2: constitutional crisis. What do they do do then?

100
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, well let's find out I suppose that's the thought there, Hi, Inda,
