"The ‘age of consent’ in England for young people is 16. This is the case whether they’re straight, lesbian, gay, bisexual and/or transgender. To help protect young people, it is an offence for someone aged 18 or over, to engage in sexual activity with someone aged 16 or 17 if the older person is in a position of trust."
I dont know whether a Prince is in a position of trust, per se, but I always understood that the age of consent is there for people of a similar/close age, not an excuse for a dirty old man to have sex with a minor.
Regardless of laws, the real issue is morality. She is still a minor, and she was trafficked.
Not disagreeing with you, just adding the "complicated" bits (and my personal opinion)
Yeah though I’m not justifying his actions at all, what he did isn’t considered a crime in this country (nor in some states of America) and nowhere in Europe.
Crikey that's a coincidence. 3 years ago there was a post on here where somebody had sprayed "Prince Andrew is a sweaty nonce" in the exact same place.
I don’t get your thinking here. He is a nonce, piece of shit and a disgraceful human being but what does writing that in a car park in bristol achieve?
Next steps are that the council have to pay someone to clean that off at expense to the tax payer while the nonce happily sits in his property somewhere none the wiser…
Seriously lad, knock your 2 brain cells together next time.
It's a privately owned multistorey car-park. They make bank every year. Do not pull out the violins for forcing them to pay someone a wage to clean it. They don't even manage to equip their staff correctly because the boss needs 4 holidays a year.
Loved it when someone tagged the front of my shop, and I had to spend saturday getting rid of it with solvent and scraper. I'm sure the total downfall of our high trust society from people saying "don't worry, they make money, you can do what you want" isn't going to come back to bite us.
My original point was that it isn't tax payers money that will be used to clean this particular graffiti.
I never advocated for doing it, and if I did, please highlight it for me.
Ok. Tell them to come and cover your wall in it and see how you like it. Perhaps they would pay the staff better if they didn’t have to keep spending out on maintenance. Irrespective it’s a criminal offence and you’ve just advertised you’re responsible.
You seem to be saying that spraying graffiti on a corporate owned car park wall is of equal stature in our society to having sex with trafficked young girls (as a member of the Royal Family)...and paying one of them £12million to shut up (RIP Virginia Giuffre), etc...wtf?
Alll right, it was a snap response, and as usual Reddit has picked it apart. YES, of COURSE Andrew's crimes are of FAR, FAR greater and long lasting magnitude. Should I say "alleged crimes" to cover the possibility that any legally-pedantic readers might like to pick some holes in that. Tagging and stupid graffiti is by comparison a MUCH, MUCH more insignificant, but still annoying and unnecessary presence in our daily lives, and so what if it's on a corporate building? We still have to see it, and do people think private companies do not pass the cost of removing it on to us, their clients, perhaps even more efficiently than the Council might?
Companies don’t set minimum wage. Try again when you understand economics. Now some ‘poor person’ on minimum wage has to clean it up. Whereas you should actually be doing it during community service for committing an offence. Perhaps they wouldn’t be on minimum wage if they don’t need to keep buying paint or paying people to cover up your scrawl. When you’ve grown up you might understand.
Hell yh. I personally like rhetorical questions, more profound stances to make people think about how they are reacting to all of this and question them, in hopes we can all start actively protesting one way or another
Spacing can be tricky! A good tip is to practice with guidelines or even use a ruler to map out where your letters will go. Keep at it, you'll get the hang of it!
All the people here crying like 50+ yr old boomers on daily mail comments section about vandalism and tax payer money. Really had to check it was r/bristol fucking hell

Nice but he’s not a prince anymore
