‘BREAKING THE LAW’ Greedy Prince Andrew’s ‘ILLEGAL’ dodgy deals could bring down monarchy – he must be held to account, expert slams
The disgraced Duke of York has come to a commercial agreement with Dutch-based firm Startupbootcamp (SBC) to use contacts he made from his Pitch@Palace initiative which could earn him millions.
Under the agreement, the Prince, 64, is paid for each deal SBC strikes in territories worldwide.
Royal author and former Home Office minister Norman Baker told The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show what Andrew has done is “out of order” and may well be illegal.
He said the data the duke is selling off doesn’t belong to him personally, but to the entrepreneurs the scheme was supposed to benefit.
Mr Baker said: “For him now to sell it off, is disreputable, it’s improper, it maybe illegal, and I intend to file a complaint with the Information Commission to suggest he’s breaking data protection laws by using information given for one purpose for an entirely different one.”
