Not really, Bobs. It's been pointed out quite a few times on here that most civil actions end in a settlement.

[ToraToraTora]

well she's spent her last payout!

[Bobbisox1]

It’s his mother I feel sorry for Tora and Ken

[Mamyalynne]

I don't think it's at all surprising.

[Bobbisox1]

It was a cynical There’s a surprise Mamya :/

[Ken4155]

Why do you feel sorry for his mother? Unless, of course, you believe she'll be the one doing the settling up?

[andres]

Not surprising at all. Highly paid prostitute adds another shedload of money to her already vast fortune.
Much wants more!!

[Bobbisox1]

Because of the shame he’s brought on her and the rest of the family

[Ken4155]

Shame? Bobs, it's not as if people will be whispering behind her back at the supermarket or bingo hall, is it?

[Bobbisox1]

I sense some cynicism there Ken :0))))

[Arksided]

I've no love lost on either of those two nobs, but do feel sorry for our Queen though

[Bobbisox1]

Whether or not she hasn’t to listen to whispers in the supermarket , she’s a mother who he’s brought shame on

[Ken4155]

I just don't buy the 'shame' thing, Bobs. No-one, and i mean no-one is ever going to bring up the subject of her son's alleged misdemeanours in conversation. She will never have to answer questions on the subject (as many a nonce's mother has had to do) or avoid the neighbours.

[Peter Pedant]

Yes really - astounded Bobs
I thought ( that is I believed (ha!)) - "it aints the moolah, I godda lodda that. The prints hurt me bad and he gonna pay ! - He beat me, he used me and then cast me aside....." ( V Giuffre)

I believed all of that - gullible fool that I am -

But hey good timing huh - good day to bury it - - "will we war with Ukraine or not ? oh and the randy one has settled"

[Bobbisox1]

And not many Nonce’s Mothers have the world and it’s Granny pointing the finger

[Ken4155]

Surely one has to 'feel' shame. In what circumstances would she ever feel shame?

[jno]

did anyone read as far as the bit saying the payment was going to charity? Seemingly not. It's way down in the third paragraph.

[Peter Pedant]

// she hasn’t to listen to whispers in the supermarket ,//
erm which one are we saying will have to run the gauntlet of Lidls ?

dont they have servants to do that?

[Peter Pedant]

Lawyers' fees aren't going to charity - I can tell you that,
hur hur hur - see answer 19 ( this one)

[Mozz71]

I don't think he's bought shame on the royal family. He's bought shame solely on himself. The rest of the Royals have not been tarnished by Andrew.
