Leeds: Should Prince Andrew be stripped of his royal titles?

Local TV

A YouGov poll found most people think Prince Andrew should no longer use his royal titles, even though he hasn’t formally been stripped of them. What’s your view - should he lose them altogether, and should he be allowed to keep his Royal Lodge home? Prince Andrew strongly denies all the claims made against him.

00:00When it comes to titles and what have you, he's clearly in a tricky position.

00:04He's put himself in scandal after scandal just by association with Epstein.

00:09Whether he loses his titles or not, that's a matter for the king and the family.

00:14He's chosen to lose his title, so fair enough.

00:16Should he lose his house and the rest of his privileges, including the title of prince?

00:21Personally, I'd say yeah.

00:22Whether that will happen or not, it's yet to be seen.

00:26I think if the king has his way, I think he probably would see him stand down.

00:30Obviously, he's pleading his innocence throughout.

00:36I don't know enough about the facts to be able to say.

00:39Obviously, the royal family have taken steps already, which suggests that they're not too happy.

00:46So it's a matter for them, really, as to whether they go any further.

00:49The next king in line should do whatever they think is appropriate to either contain the situation or get rid of it.

00:57But that's for them to decide.
