Charlie boy is always sticking his oar in. See, I have no problem with Charlies truly green efforts nor for that matter with Harry carrying on with the minefield work his mother got into. I see those as well meaning and for the general good of folk. Certainly not overtly political so good luck to them. With Markle, it's the anti Trump and pro US Democrats stance plus a few other things she's regularly on the soapbox about which I have a problem with. UK Republicans should be celebrating. If she could turn a Monarchist like me off the Royal Family, just think how many others might be swayed to having an snidey, granny shagging wide boy who smells of garlic as head of state?

Traf Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Meghan was a mixed-race, foreign commoner. She was always going to be a target, sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye and amazing how when people complain about royals or celebrities having an opinion it turns out that opinion is something the. Complainer disagrees with.

I take absolutely no notice of Koontz (in all facets of my life and definitely on here). He should probably be on ignore like the site commie.

I don't give a flying fuck what colour/mixture/'race' this US metropolitan elitist is. We are all mixed race - none more so than us extraordinary Brits. She needs to look at Kate Middleton as a role model and get off the fucking soapbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Winchester White Posted October 21, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted October 21, 2019 Judt watched that documentary about their African trip. Both look to be really feeling the pressure and bullshit written in our god awful tabloid media. Meghan came across really well and we all know Harry is a good'un so they will do for me. Plus Meghan is rather nice on the eye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bolty58 Posted October 22, 2019 Members Share Posted October 22, 2019 Not for the first time our opinions differ. I think she's a scheming, over opinionated and selfish bitch who will end up sending the former peoples favourite Harry either to a psychiatrist or the divorce court. We shall see. Kate Middleton, conversely, is the epitome of class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted October 22, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted October 22, 2019 I think bolty may be referring to her causes prior to marrying Harry. Not sure what exactly these were, but there was stuff mentioned in the press before the ceremony took place. To be honest, I took little notice. Didn't watch the documentary, not sure they've done the right thing in doing it. I do hope they both get any help they need though. Harry did a couple of tours of Afghanistan, perhaps royal white may know more about this, but I would imagine he's seen plenty of shit during that time. There could be all sorts going on in his head.

How do you know she is all the things you say she is? Perchance we get more coverage down here matey - particularly from the US side of things. Believe me, I do not read any of the type of magazine to which I think you might be referring and nor do I give a fuck what colour her skin is before Walshaw Mandela chimes in. I would very happily vote for Diana Ross to be Prime Minister or even Queen! Of course she is the consummate, fluttering eyelash, 'Would you like to pin me down and fuck me rigid' actress when the cameras are on her and she is pleading her case against the evil tabloids (which, BTW, I believe they often are. Press guttersnipes). You can't have it both ways though. Use their PR value and then expect that they won't point out obvious hypocrisies. Always liked Harry and I sincerely hope he comes out of this OK and can get back to his former persona - so appreciated by the British public.

Brian Leveson struggled with this problem. He pointed out that, no matter what editors say, the issues recur a decade later. The 'freedom of the press' card is used whenever challenged, but framing rules which rein them in while retaining freedom is beyond difficult. Note that Cameron set up the Leveson Inquiry, then changed the terms of reference, and dropped part 2 of the inquiry altogether.

Site Supporter Winchester White Posted October 22, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted October 22, 2019 To be fair Bolty, press harassment is something that is going to rile him more than most foe obvious reasons. It just seems that there is an unfair amount of scrutiny into their lives beyond all reasonableness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm no fan of any royal. But some of the comments on this forum are offensive - and inspired by our own media. There is absolutely no need - she's allowed an opinion and should be treated with respect. No need to be scared of women speaking out.
