Prince Andrew Scandal Deepens: Historian Warns Of Royal “Cover Up” And National Security Risk

Kevin O’Sullivan is joined by historian and author Andrew Lownie to discuss the escalating Prince Andrew investigation and what he describes as a widening establishment scandal. Lownie argues that scrutiny must not stop with Andrew, insisting former palace officials, UK Trade & Investment figures and even senior royals should face serious questioning over what they knew and when. He claims there has been a long standing culture of secrecy and deference, warning that the public is no longer prepared to accept silence from the top.Lownie also raises the stakes by suggesting the issue goes beyond personal misconduct, calling it a potential national security concern tied to Andrew’s international connections during his time as trade envoy. He questions whether key documents will ever be fully released and warns that kicking disclosures “into the long grass” will only fuel suspicion. Hosted on Acast.
