A song titled Prince Andrew Is A Sweaty N***eis rapidly climbing the charts just ahead of the Queen’s Jubilee celebrations.
Comedy rock group The Kunts have targeted Queen Elizabeth II’s son with their latest release.
They’re hoping to hit the top of the charts this weekend, after reaching number five with their previous singles, Boris Johnson Is a F***ing C**t and Boris Johnson Is Still a F***ing C**t.
Prince Andrew Is A Sweaty N***e is currently climbing up the Trending Charts, sitting at 12th, though its final standing in the Official Singles Charts won’t be known until Friday.

The song has been written in reference to the Duke of York’s settlement with Virginia Giuffre – reported to be up to £12m.

Virginia was a victim of Jeffrey Epstein who accused Prince Andrew of sexually abusing her while she was underage, allegations that the royal denies.
The song’s lyrics include lines such as “The Grand old Duke of York, he said he didn’t sweat, so why’d he pay 12 million quid, to a girl he’d never met,” and “Pizza Express in Woking? Mate you gotta be joking.”
The Kunts’ frontman, known only as Kunt, told NME: “The timing this year felt perfect, given Prince Andrew’s bizarre, shameful, and cowardly behaviour as he attempted to dodge any sort of accountability for the alleged sexual assault on Virginia Giuffre, followed by the attempt to sweep it all under the carpet with an out of court settlement.”
And of releasing the song so close to the Queen’s Jubilee celebrations, and the message it sends to the royal family, he added: “I can’t help thinking that in a day and age where there are families reliant on foodbanks to feed their children and old ladies riding around on buses because they can’t afford to heat their homes, the idea that there is this family who live in castles and palaces, and whose crowns gilded with gold and jewels get ferried around in specially built Rolls Royces does feel a bit like something that we as a society should have risen up and put a stop to by now.”

The Kunts’ song Prince Andrew Is A Sweaty N***e is streaming on Spotify now, and its position in the UK Singles Chart will be revealed on Friday 3 June.

‘Please explayn’ – fans gutted as Kellogg’s axes popular cereal from variety pack
Daisy Jackson
Kellogg’s has axed one of the best cereals from its variety packs, and people are not happy…
Shoppers have noticed that the breakfast food creator, which has its headquarters here in Greater Manchester, has removed Frosties from its mini selection packs.
The popular cereal, arguably the best one in the mulitpacks, is a sugar-coated take on the classic Corn Flakes.
But now the Tony the Tiger-fronted snack has been dropped from the line-up, swapped for a third box of Coco Pops instead.
People have complained to Kellogg’s that there’s no longer ‘much variety’ in the variety packs, with one customer’s seven-year-old child even penning a ‘verry upset’ letter of complaint.
One person said: “@KelloggsUKI not much “variety” in here lads. 3 x Coco Pops. Letting yourselves being bullied into removing the Frosties? Piss poor, won’t be buying again.”
Another wrote: “Bad decision, why not let people decide what they want to eat? – The variety packa now is as iteresting as the cardboard the food comes in. first Ricicles and now Frosties.”
Someone else reminisced on their childhood, when there were apparently eight different options.
They’ve removed Frosties from the variety pack everyone…
One tweet said: “Kellogg’s I dont want your help in finding healthier options I want to eat Frosites – you’ve already killed off Ricicles – Why not let grown up’s decide what hey want to eat?”
Another posted: “@KelloggsUKI what the hell #mate? Was gonna say recently we need two #frosties and here I find none #disgrace #breakfast”
A spokesperson for Kellogg’s said on Twitter: “We can confirm that we have recently taken the decision to remove Frosties from the variety pack. Thank you for expressing your thoughts about the change, please be assured that we will pass this sentiment back to our marketing department.”
King Charles III acceded to the throne on 8 September 2022, and on the day of his Coronation, will be 74 years old – making him the oldest person to be crowned monarch in British history.
The King will be coronated alongside his wife and the Queen Consort, Camilla, in a religious ceremony held at Westminster Abbey in London – which is the same place his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II‘s Coronation was held in 1953, as was her State Funeral in September of last year.
The ceremony will be conducted by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, and is expected to be a more “simmered down” event in comparison to that of the late Queen’s Coronation.

Buckingham Palace said the Coronation will “reflect the monarch’s role today” and will “look towards the future, while being rooted in longstanding traditions and pageantry” – with more details about the ceremony and celebrations on a national scale expected to be announced “in due course”.
But, on a more personal scale locally, Manchester City Council has just announced that residents in the borough can apply to close their road off so they can throw a street party.
