"NO Respect For Anyone!" - Royal Biographer Angela Levin On Prince Harry Facing £1M Court Bill

The Duke of Sussex’s initial bid to bring an appeal has been refused after he lost a High Court challenge over a decision to change the level of his personal security when he visits the UK.

Harry took legal action against the Home Office over the February 2020 decision of the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (Ravec) that he should receive a different degree of taxpayer-funded protection when in the country.

Ravec’s decision came as a result of a change in the duke’s “status” after he stopped being a “full-time working member of the royal family”, a judge was told.

In a judgment in February, retired High Court judge Sir Peter Lane rejected the duke’s case and concluded Ravec’s approach was not irrational nor procedurally unfair.

Following the previous ruling, a spokesperson for the duke said he intended to challenge the judgment, adding that Harry “hopes he will obtain justice from the Court of Appeal”.

Alex Phillips and Kevin O’Sullivan are joined by royal biographer Angela Levin to discuss.

    We need to remember that Prince William had the same upbringing, parents and losses that Harry had, with a big load of extra responsibility because of his position in the LOS all of which Harry hasn't had. Harry is incredibly ungrateful and so is Meghan Markle. They deserve each other.

    The man is deluded!! Harry, you aint getting IPP. Well done judge for making him pay the British tax payer back.
  • @5578pedro
    Who would have ever thought that a member of our aristocracy, a son of our King would have stooped so low.
  • The best gift Harry can give to the UK is to promise he will never come back to UK ever again.
  • It's obvious he was spoiled his whole life and now he's living in the real world. Grow up, Harry!
  • @Tim-Enchanter
    My mum died in 2020 at 96. Born in London & a war bride. She got up @ 4am to watch Royale weddings. She would be appalled!!!
  • @ginnysnyder
    What these 2 Really ARE.... Is the BOTTOM OF THE BARREL !!!
  • Harry needs to grow up, accept he's not getting privileges from the UK. If he feels he can't visit because of the security, so be it.
  • @zach8025
    As an American, if Harry can reside in the states, where there’s more guns than there are people, then there’s no reason he can’t take his kids to the UK, without armed guards.
  • @zeebrook
    It's amazing; they wanted to leave the UK and the royal family but still want the perks here. The judge did right.
  • @susieqsevenable
    I truly believe at this point there is seriously something wrong with them. Its becoming more and more sad, even scary.
  • The Media should now refer to the ex-royal as Mr Harry Sussex, not as either the Duke of Sussex or Prince Harry?
  • Harry and his wonderfully caring wife - as stated in her bio - clearly live in some alternative world disconnected from reality. They both need to GROW UP!
  • @MarleneRogers2
    Just strip him from all royal titles and this whole thing will come to an end and never go back to Enland.
  • Why are we continuing to call Harry Prince and Duke. Didn't he say just call me Harry?!
  • @stephenluke2347
    IF H&M HAVE NO RESPECT FOR THE BRITISH AND ITS LAWS WHY SHOULD WE HAVE ANY RESPECT FOR THEM??
  • @nanabutner
    “I CANNOT CONCEIVE OF ANYONE LESS DESERVING OF ANY SPECIAL PRIVILEGES THAN hairy! “CONGRATULATIONS TO THE JUDGE FOR DOING THE RIGHT THING!”
  • Come on Harry, learn something from this, take responsibility. You are not a member of the British Royal family anymore, you CHOSE to leave, "duh"
