If they need money surely they would want paying, if they want to stay out of the public eye then surely they wouldn’t do it? Mentalists don’t need a motive.

I think he got around £10M inheritance from his mother didn't he, so I'm not sure he's down the foodbank yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Winchester White Posted March 8, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted March 8, 2021 I think Harry might view some of those within the institution surrounding the Royal family are racist. Or not. I like Harry but I am not sure any of this is in his or the royals best interests either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DazBob Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 6 minutes ago, Escobarp said: Is the consensus on here that the US is inherently more racist than the Uk? I certainly believed it was from my vie looking from the outside. although im sure Tricia will have an issue with me commenting. It seems one of the driving reasons behind leaving the UK from Harry’s perspective was to escape from racism. Strange place to move to potentially that being the case? A few years back I used to go over to our head office in Atlanta. That part of the US, IMO, is certainly more racist than over here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont get me wrong here if he has had racist comments made to him by anybody it’s unacceptable and I’m not questioning if this has happened or not. it just seems an odd thing to cite as a reason for leaving and then move to the US. like going from working for jim Davidson and then moving to Bernard manning for want of a better analogy.

Or could be that in this country, they have to engage with the people who did/didn't make the racist comments on a regular basis Go off to America, cut themselves off from the said racists and mix with people they are comfortable with Doesn't matter if America is more racist or not if they mix with people they know aren't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just picked up on his comment that the uK was racist and a driving force behind the move. So I found it odd to move to somewhere arguably worse. and then to sign a mega money deal to go right into the public eye in that country. Just seems a bit odd.

I haven't heard the full transcripts, but from the snippets I've seen there seems to be the suggestion that they see the racism as not coming from the royal family themselves but the advisors etc behind the scenes. So could be, naively, that's how they see life in the UK because that's what they've experienced, and know that they can go to America, mix with Hollywood elite of their choosing safe in the knowledge they won't encounter racism, rather than being about the population of the UK v America Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the lad from what I’ve ever seen of him and don’t have a view on her either really as haven’t see enough of her to form one. I hope he finds peace now and they live a happy life together and the uk media leave them alone he clearly thinks staying in the uk wasn’t tenable and wanted to distance himself from the royals so fair play as he’s had the bollocks to do so. a lot of people could learn a lot from that.

Guest Nordkurve Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/ellievhall/meghan-markle-kate-middleton-double-standards-royal This might show you why Harry and Meghan are so pissed off with the UK.

Between him and William I know who I'd rather go for a pint with, plus I reckon he'd have some good stories. Its clearly evident he has hated the British media for a long time now, though I bet the usual suspects will ratchet it up after this Plus he probably thinks fuck it, I ain't going to be king anyway and with Charles not being his dad really, he may not see a link to the royal family anymore Fair play to the lad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Spider Posted March 8, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted March 8, 2021 Who's going to do all the jobs he would have done now anyway? It's not like they can just advertise the role. Or, can they? "Leading British Tourist Attraction urgently seeks Promotions Manager" Candidate must have experience of: * Shaking hands and smiling * Asking people what they do for a living * Pretending some of your colleagues aren't massive, drooling perverts * Ginger hair Full training will be provided. Reporting to a dysfunctional family surrounded by highly paid hand-wringers and cap-doffers, your day to day duties will include meeting normal people and pretending you give the slightest fuck about them, whilst clearly displaying a thinly-veiled haughty distaste for them and their horrid, pointless lives. As a full time role, your "spare" time will be spent in deeply suspicious social circles. You will occasionally be taken to country estates and encouraged to shoot peasants and stags.

I have nothing against William either tbh. I’ve always thought he spoke well. The inevitable cross referencing of their lives and media interactions will now commence from one side.
