Buckingham Palace recently saw the announcement of DEFCON-1 and, according to sources, there is a frenzy within the company.
For those who don’t know, this is all due to public calls for Andrew to be stripped of not only his dukedom or military honors, but also the princely title he enjoys as the younger brother of the reigning monarch and son of the late Queen Elizabeth II.
A warning about the state of the company has been shared by a Whitehall source. According to their findings, the reason for DEFCON-1 was the Andrew title fiasco that shook the company, the reason being that Parliament was “snooping around” according to famous journalist Rob Shuter.
In his sub-stack, he explained that, behind closed doors, senior MPs began discussions about Andrew’s behavior and conduct, and that there were even plans to have him summoned “to give evidence under oath”.
According to the journalist, “the moment lawmakers start treating a royal like a minister, everything collapses. It’s DEFCON-1 at the Palace.”
For those who don’t know, if Parliament intervenes once in the cabinet’s “competence”, they “can do it again. And if they pull Andrew’s thread, others will follow: private security, foreign relations, royal finances, Queen Elizabeth’s decisions. The mere specter of the hearings has sent shivers down centuries of royal precedent,” he also added.
According to Mr Shuter, this is why Andrew’s title was processed so quickly, and “we have never seen royal paperwork evolve so quickly”, he even added.
One of the main reasons for this is that “the king had influence – Prime Minister Keir Starmer owes him his quiet whispers in Donald Trump’s ear. Lammy didn’t blink an eye.”
However, before the news was approved, a senior advisor also reportedly said that King Charles’s reasons for choosing this path were not “out of shame” but that Andrew “was sacrificed to protect the system.”
