According to The Times on Friday a university spokesman said it had reviewed the Duke’s speech and was surprised by the Labour group’s reaction.

Well, that’s some statement. Andrew and the rest of the royals have to back away from any association from Saudi Arabia after what has gone down with Khashoggi’s murder. Perhaps the right thing for Andrew to do is resign as the University’s Chancellor. The Labour group is asking for the university to back them.

The "Labour Group" is a section of the Students Union but I don't know how big it is so it could just be a minority.

The Royal Family will follow Government policy so I don't see any change in the short term.
