No governmental official can do whatever he thinks fit, not even the King. Why should be Laurent be an exception? He had ample warnings. Here is a principle at stake.
In the end it is the scenario. younger son never found a meaningful role in life.

: Without knowing HRH personally and only from

: Prince Laurent not as the most likeable
: member of the Belgian RF.
:
: BUT: If it is really true, that he's not
: allowed to do any paid work (as mentioned
: in the article: "The lawyer says the
: prince, 54, has no access to social security
: or a pension, nor has he the right to do any
: paid work."), then I actually have
: some understanding for this man... Not
: everyone has the philantopic attitude and
: the creativity as it The Prince of Wales
: showed, who carved his very own role over
: the years. Prince Laurent was not given a
: sensible task to fulfill, he has no
: perspective in life, he depends on the
: government's and his brother's charity -
: what a humiliating situation for a - as it
: seems - proud person. Even a gold spoon can
: be unsatisfying, if you are not allowed to
: use it according to your own ideas. Why not
: creating him a role as for example Prince
: Andrew in the UK has, Ambassador for trade?
: Somehow, I really feel sorry for the
: prince...
:
: When I watch at the pictures of this Chinese
: News Agency, I see a happy person. The
: prince looks happier than on every picture
: with his family I've seen in recent times
: (and there were very few).
:
: At looking from outside I'd say: There's
: something wrong in the BelgRF...
