Epstein Case Sparks Global Concerns Over Impact on Monarchies
Graham Smith, chief executive of Republic, an organization advocating the abolition of the British monarchy, said the case had “blown open a lid on this whole culture of rich and powerful men thinking they can get away with anything."
He added, “And that's going to do huge damage to monarchies everywhere, particularly the ones in democratic countries and certainly ours."
Smith highlighted that former Prince Andrew’s involvement has intensified scrutiny of the royal family.
“And I think the fact that Andrew is at the heart of this, and that has been dragging on for years, we've known about these allegations for years, and everyone's known that he's (been) someone of questionable reputation for years, and they've done nothing about it, and they've tried to hide, and they've tried to pay off victims. That's going to cause huge damage to this monarchy,” he said.
His remarks come as police continue searches at Mountbatten-Windsor’s former residence, Royal Lodge, a day after he was released under investigation.
