#Sir. Keir Starmer calls for Prince Andrew to cooperate with feds

A leading British politician who was the UK’s former top prosecutor on Monday called for Prince Andrew to help the feds’ Jeffrey Epstein investigation.

“Of course he should cooperate with the US,” Sir Keir Starmer, the leader of the UK’s opposition party, told LBC radio about repeated claims that the royal has refused to meet with investigators across the pond.

“It doesn’t matter who you are, you cooperate with the law enforcement authorities when they require you to do so,” the Labour Party leader said.

Starmer — who was the nation’s Director of Public Prosecutions — said the US used to seek assistance “all the time” from the UK, which “always cooperated.”

Asked if he was “disappointed” that Andrew, 60, has not cooperated, Starmer said, “Well, he will have to justify his own actions.”

Andrew’s legal team has previously insisted the royal has offered assistance to US investigators, calling claims that he hasn’t a “publicity stunt.”

Queen Elizabeth II’s son is accused of having sex with one of Epstein’s alleged victims, Virginia Roberts Giuffre, when she was underage.

The prince and Buckingham Palace have vehemently denied the allegations and have said the prince was oblivious to his friend’s criminal behavior, even after Epstein was convicted of underage sex crimes.

Epstein, 66, was found hanged in his cell last August.
