As the scandals surrounding\u00a0Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s<\/a> scandal refuse to die down, he has been dealt a further blow: a “large number” of residents in Maidenhead have contacted the Council to complain about street names that still bear the disgraced royal’s name.<\/span><\/p>\n It has been reported that several residents of Prince Andrew<\/a> Road and Prince Andrew Close in Maidenhead have written to complain about the connection. To cope with the reaction, the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead<\/a> have introduced new legislation which makes it easier to change the addresses of streets named after him.<\/p>\n Several locations around the UK hold a connection to the former prince, with many being renamed after his birth in 1960,<\/a> or to mark his marriage to Sarah Ferguson<\/a> in 1986.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The new rule to change street names was introduced by Liberal Democrat councillor Adam Bermange last month, who said requiring unanimous support was \u201can overly burdensome threshold\u201d, based on older legislation.<\/p>\n According to new rules which were introduced in the 2023 Levelling Up and Regeneration Act, local councils can change the names of roads if they can prove that there is “sufficient local support”.<\/p>\n Prince Andrew Road resident Aman Gandhi told the BBC<\/a> he wanted the name changed quickly, explaining: \u201cIt\u2019s not a name that you want attributed to where you\u2019re living. From my perspective, the sooner [the renaming] comes, the better.\u201d<\/p>\n However, another resident told the BBC<\/a> that she didn\u2019t want the name of the road changed: \u201cYou\u2019ve got to change all your deeds. Everything has to be changed. And I guess I just feel it\u2019s a lot of hassle to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n While Andrew still calls Windsor home, he is expected to move to the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk<\/a> after Christmas.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The latest update comes after reports of a new “feud”<\/a> between the King<\/a> and his younger brother have emerged. Sources said Andrew just wants to be treated \u201cfairly”<\/a> but is now \u201creeling off demands and ultimatums\u201d about his future living arrangements.<\/p>\n It was further claimed that Andrew is demanding a \u201csubstantial six or seven bedroom house on the Sandringham Estate, complete with staff including a cook, gardener, housekeeper, driver and police security.\u201d<\/p>\n
