February 20, 2026

The arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor for abuse of power has sparked reactions in Britain. There are calls for his removal from the line of succession to the throne, with 82% of the public supporting this demand. The process of removal is complex and requires legislative intervention from Parliament, as well as coordination with other countries. Government sources consider it unlikely that immediate removal proceedings will take place. Andrew continues to deny any accusations of illegal activities.
