The only 8 birthday messages for Prince Andrew you need to read
Wednesday was Prince Andrew’s 60th birthday, which he would have been celebrating with a massive knees-up, as the Royals say, if he hadn’t pissed off Her Maj by hanging out with a paedophile, then inventing an impossible medical condition in a Newsnight interview.
Instead, he had a dinner with close family, and the official Royal Twitter account tweeted him a little tribute.
On this day in 1960, Prince Andrew was born at Buckingham Palace, the first child born to a reigning monarch for 103 years.
Happy Birthday to The Duke of York. pic.twitter.com/zoZErBHQbG

We appreciate they had to post something, but many people felt it was in bad taste – a sentiment perfectly expressed by writer, Otegha K. Uwagba.

It’s fair to say that we didn’t see a single response in his favour, but we did see a lot that were funny, so we picked a few favourites.

This is an incredible piece of social media copy writing. They managed to list all his achievements in a single tweet. https://t.co/evAfMYRq5c

What's he doing for it, full party with a sex offender or a quiet pizza in woking?

HRH: “I’m sorry Andrew, but we won’t be having a party for you this year.”
ANDREW: “No sweat.”
HRH: “Don’t start with that bollocks again!”

Author and very funny tweeter James Felton had a warning.
Let Prince Andrew be a powerful message to all the nonces and friends of nonces out there: If you hang out with paedophiles for years and don’t cooperate with the FBI, your birthday celebrations will be very muted.
