Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, former prince and brother to King Charles III has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office.

      There will be a time of reckoning eventually. The universe will take it’s rightful position and everyone will see.
      God sees all and we all are eventually are held accountable.
      Be still and watch the works of God.
      May look unlikely now, but be patient 🙏
