Andrew is arrested and held in custody on his birthday after dramatic police raid on his home at Sandringham amid probe into Epstein files
Daily Mail UK ^ | February 19, 2026 | Martin Robinson

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has today been arrested on his 66th birthday and is in police custody.

Thames Valley Police said the eighth in line to the British throne has been held on suspicion of misconduct in public office.

A force spokesman said officers are searching an address in Norfolk - believed to be Wood Farm where he is exiled - and an address in Berkshire, likely to be Royal Lodge in Windsor, where he lived for more than 20 years until this month.

'The man remains in police custody at this time', the spokesman said - but the force would not confirm where Andrew, who is celebrating his birthday today, had been taken.

Thames Valley Assistant Chief Constable Oliver Wright said: 'Following a thorough assessment, we have now opened an investigation into this allegation of misconduct in public office.

'It is important that we protect the integrity and objectivity of our investigation as we work with our partners to investigate this alleged offence.

'We understand the significant public interest in this case, and we will provide updates at the appropriate time.'

Andrew's arrest was revealed today around an hour after police were seen at Sandringham. Six unmarked police cars arrived at King Charles' Norfolk estate at just after 8am this morning.

Onlookers said the group of eight people were in plain clothes 'but appeared to be police officers'. One man appeared to be carrying a police-issue laptop.

Dai Davies just said it on Dan Wooton’s latest YouTube video..

Wooton: “Dai, what you are suggesting is a full Deep State cover-up here, that could have serious consequences for people outside of Andrew and the British royal family, too...”

Davies: “Yes, quite simply, yes...”

“King Chuck has had enough, apparently.”

It’s William cleaning things out.

Re: "Every Western law enforcement and intel agency around the globe allowed Epstein and Maxwell access to their VIPs for well over a decade."

As far as I know, no one has accused Epstein of trafficking or personally soliciting a minor after 2005.

The two crimes Epstein pleaded guilty to in 2008 actually took place in the 1990s.

“””DAY-um, skippy. Imagine that happening to some highly-placed pedo here in America…

not, of course, while Pam Bondi is AG, but just imagine.

Because that’s probably as far as it’ll ever go here while she’s in office.””””

The Epstein thing goes back 20 years or more.

Trump arrested Epstein and Maxwell.

How many did the democrats arrest in all those years?

With the statute of limitations long expired who would AG Bondi arrest?

You have your Randy Andy and now we have Mandy. Tony Blair’s right hand man. One of them.
_______

Peter Mandelson is widely known as Tony Blair’s right-hand man and a key architect of New Labour. Often nicknamed “Mandy,” he served as a close advisor, campaign director for Labour’s 1997 election win, and held roles like Minister without Portfolio and Secretary of State for Trade and Industry.

Key Roles
Mandelson backed Blair after John Smith’s 1994 death, helping secure leadership over Gordon Brown, despite prior ties to both. He coordinated government efforts early in Blair’s tenure and was pivotal in party modernization.

Controversies
He resigned twice—once over an undeclared loan in 1998 and later in Northern Ireland—but remained influential, later reconciling with Brown. His strategic instincts made him a power broker in Labour politics

People may be celebrating Andy’s arrest but he’s just the first to be taken down. They’ll chip away at the monarchy until they take it all down.

Meanwhile, again interesting timing...

The Trump administration is building a website to help Europeans evade content bans The 'Freedom.gov' site could also come with built-in VPN capabilities to mask user locations

And I love the meme at this link...

MARCO MUSK IN THE HAUS: The US State Department is building a portal with a built-in VPN so Europeans can see content their governments banned, including posts on X that got the platform fined 120 million euros. (verified true)

From 2021, on the guy Chuck and Andy drove out...

Christopher Geidt: The Queen’s former right hand man is the best pick to tackle Boris Johnson’s flat fiasco Despite suggestions his new advisory role to the PM is ‘toothless’, the Queen’s former private secretary in no pushover, writes Sean O’Grady. He takes a look at some of Lord Geidt’s career highs and lows, from averting two constitutional crises to power struggles with Prince Charles and Prince Andrew

Note his intel backround.

Wonder what he knows.

And if he's allowed to say it.

...misconduct in public office...

This 'man' also is guilty of misconduct in private, in thought, body, spirit, speech. He has been a problem since childhood as his royal nannies have attested. FFS, his own country has given him the moniker 'Randy Andy' for his well known compulsive sexual behavior. He has been royally castrated and now (hopefully) its time for him to be physically castrated.

They can try. :-)

In the meantime, on what’s going on in the UK...

Andrew Lownie is suing Simon & Schste4 for refusing to honor his contract with him and publish his recent book on this side of the pond...

https://andrewlownie.substack.com/p/why-im-suing-simon-and-schuster

Wonder why S&S did that...

I’ve read the book. There was nothing it in that was actionable.

And Chuck denied through a source that he contributed to the Giuffre payoff.

Who coughed up the money?

Per the above, a property in Berrkshire has also been raided, though that’s getting very little attention...
