Sir, The
nation owes the duke a debt of gratitude for his valiant attempts to change the
news agenda.
Three weeks later and
the prince voluntarily surrendered his driving licence. Will he be prosecuted
for careless driving? What do you think?
A few days
later, on the 14.2.2019:
The Crown
Prosecution Service has decided not to prosecute the prince as it would not be
in the public interest.
There’s a surprise.
*A woman who
criticised the Duke of Edinburgh after a car crash that broke her wrist has
been banned from driving for six months for speeding.
Emma
Fairweather, 46, was a passenger in the Kia car that hit the duke’s Land Rover
Freelander in January near his estate in Sandringham, Norfolk. Fairweather,
who called for the duke to be prosecuted if he was found to be at fault, was
sentenced in her absence at King’s Lynn magistrates’ court for two counts of
speeding and two of failing to identify the driver of a Volkswagen Golf accused
of a speeding offence.

An ironic twist to the story.
