"Andrew was given the title of the Duke of York by his mother, the late Queen Elizabeth II, on the morning of his wedding. It was a title for which the Queen had a great personal affection, being the one held by her beloved father, King George VI, before he acceded the throne. Nearly 40 years on, Andrew has finally been forced to relinquish his dukedom - the highest rank in the British peerage - amid the long-running fallout of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal."
The Independent emphasizes on-the-ground reporting across issues such as reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech, citing investigations into Elon Musk’s pro-Trump PAC and a documentary, 'The A Word', about American women fighting for reproductive rights. The outlet requests donations to fund reporters to cover both sides of stories and maintains open access to reporting without paywalls, relying on support from those who can afford to contribute. Separately, Prince Andrew has relinquished use of several roles and titles, including the Duke of York title, and given up specific knighthoods and Garter roles amid the Jeffrey Epstein scandal; he will remain a prince and retain the dukedom legally, removable only by Act of Parliament.
