Anthony Albanese Backs Removing Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor as Heir
Anthony Albanese informed Keir Starmer that Australia supports removing Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor from the royal line of succession following his recent arrest.The former prince faces allegations of misconduct in public office for leaking trade documents to Jeffrey Epstein and potential links to human trafficking.Removing the eighth person in line to the throne would require an act of the UK Parliament and agreement from 14 Commonwealth nations where Charles III is head of state.While Defense Minister Luke Pollard called the move the right thing to do, Nigel Farage suggested waiting until the police investigation into the royal estate is finished.
