Send Andrew to California to live with Meghan and Harry! Andrew Pierce says the ‘problem prince’ should be exiled and calls Meghan the ‘least popular’ Royal on the Mail’s new YouTube talk show The Reaction

The Duke of York should be packed off to live with Harry and Meghan to solve King Charles’s ‘Andrew problem’, Mail columnists Sarah Vine and Andrew Pierce conclude in their new talk show.

The Reaction, which launched last night, is a new YouTube talk show which sees the Mail’s star writers share their insight and views on the biggest topics of the day – no matter how contentious.

In the first episode, Ms Vine and Mr Pierce debate Prince Andrew’s role in Royal life, the Post Office IT scandal, gender self-ID laws in Scotland and even Jason Donovan’s budgie smugglers.

The show is released every Wednesday at 5pm on the Daily Mail’s YouTube channel. 

During their discussion about Prince Andrew, who this week has found himself dragged back into the Jeffrey Epstein paedophile scandal following the release of new legal documents, the pair discuss how best to deal with the ‘Andrew problem’.

Ms Vine said: ‘Things seemed to be calming down a bit for Prince Andrew over Christmas, he was actually invited along with Fergie to join the Royal Family at Sandringham, much to many people’s surprise.

‘But now with more lurid claims literally landing by the day about his links to Epstein’s paedophile Island, which he of course strongly denies, it could get a lot worse.’

Mr Pierce gives viewers behind-the-scenes insight into the ‘Problem Prince’ from a previous interview with Andrew and says he is certainly guilty of one thing above all else – ‘appalling judgement’.

The pair debate whether King Charles should boot the duke out of Royal Lodge, the 30-room mansion in Windsor Great Park where he has lived for 20 years and has a lease until 2078.

Ms Vine said: ‘I think that Andrew needs to be out of sight and out of mind… Living in a big palace in Windsor is not a great idea, I think he should go to Sandringham because Sandringham is in Norfolk which is full of old toffs like Andrew and they can sit around all day long having dinner parties and lunch parties and generally entertaining each other.’

Mr Pierce added: ‘The other thing we could do is we could send him to Montecito in California, there is plenty of room in that house, rattling around with those other two very popular Royals, Harry and Meghan.

‘The only consolation for Andrew is that Prince Harry is vying with him in the unpopularity stakes for who’s the least popular, I think Meghan is probably the least popular.’

The pair also locked horns over the biggest story of the week: whether ex Post Office chief Paula Vennells should keep the bonuses she earnt while overseeing the biggest miscarriage of justice in modern British history while chief executive.

The calls were made by victims of the scandal whose lives were ruined after they were accused of stealing from the Post Office as postmasters, when a computer glitch was actually responsible.

Ms Vine said: ‘I’m a bit ambivalent about this, because I do think it’s right that she is giving back her CBE – that was the right thing to do and a good gesture – I’m just slightly worried that there is a fine line between retribution and witch hunt.’

But Mr Pierce countered: ‘I’m sorry, I have no sympathy for her at all.’

He continued: ‘The point is, Sarah, her bonus was based on figures which were predicated on a terrible injustice meted out to these postmasters and postmistresses, many of whom paid hundreds of thousands of pounds to the Post Office who said it was money they had ripped off from the system.’

Recorded in the Daily Mail’s new state-of-the-art studios in its West London offices, The Reaction will be broadcast at 5pm on Wednesday every week on the Daily Mail’s YouTube channel.
