'Harry has a point!' Duke set to argue 'Andrew still protected' in security row - claim
PRINCE Harry could argue that Prince Andrew is still receiving "taxpayer-funded security", a royal expert claimed.
Prince Harry has 'good point' over security concerns says Myers
Earlier this month, Harry filed a second lawsuit in the ongoing security row. Speaking on Australia's Today, the Daily Mirror's royal editor Russell Myers discussed how Harry could bring up the "good point" that Andrew has still kept his security, depite "stepping back from royal duties".
Mr Myers stated that Harry has had "two major court cases against the British government" and the "Home Office are at loggerheads with Harry in the High Court here in the UK".
He added: "I mean, Harry has got a, you know, potentially a good point because just recently it's been revealed that Prince Andrew, despite stepping back from royal duties, in complete disgrace, he's managed to keep hold of his taxpayer funded security.
"So no doubt, Harry will be using that as a big argument, when they have the big court showdown in a few months."
Prince Harry has previously stated his fears numerous times.

In March, Prince Harry and Meghan chose to not attend the memorial service for Harry's late grandfather, Prince Philip, along with the rest of the Royal Family.

This led him to launch a case against the Home Office.
Speaking after the service, veteran royal photographer Arthur Edwards discussed the "incredible" security.
Mr Edwards said that Harry "should be here", adding, "whether he brings his wife [Meghan] or not, it doesn't matter".
According to The Telegraph, The Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (RAVEC) determined that Andrew, despite stepping down, is still entitled to public-funded bodyguards.
