Graydon Carter: ‘Harry and Meghan have done something they’ll live to regret’


Legendary editor Graydon Carter is either puncturing egos of the powerful or throwing receptions in Cannes, but knows how to keep us hooked

============================================

With regards to Harry and Meghan it all depends on how you view the situation, yes they could well have removed their children from all of their other family, but then that is how you feel the other family is viewed.

Harry was brought up much closer to the other family, much more closer than any of us will be. He saw, to some extent, how his mother was treated and in Harry’s view, he didn’t wish for his wife to be treated similarly. Harry could have had a distorted view, but none of us can really say, for we only know what the other family wishes us to know.

The Royal Family, or The Firm, if they excel at anything in PR, they may not always get it right, as in the aftermath of the death of Diana, but in many respects, they do or believe they do.

But Harry views either the whole of the Royal Family or certain members as being ‘Toxic’ and that is his view, is he right or wrong or somewhere in between. We can never really say.

So, Harry and Meghan moved to America to escape the toxicity they believed was there, but in doing so did they just replace one believed toxicity for another, perhaps, toxicity.

They may have done right or not, but that is their choice to make and live with it.

And, that is not even mentioning the respective media.

William ‘sides with Diana’ by breaking protocol and not bowing to Camilla, expert says – Mirror Online


Prince William followed his gut instinct and potentially subconsciously sided with his late mum Diana by failing to bow to Queen Camilla during the Coronation, Judi James claims

============================================

Shows not all is good in The Firm. William can’t forget Camilla’s treachery just has Harry, but then William feels similar to Harry, While Harry feels similar to them all.

Diana is still with them all in many ways.

Will the House of Windsor fall, when more than if.

Only one person can move Prince Andrew out of royal home – and it isn’t King Charles – Mirror Online


Prince Andrew has reportedly refused to leave £30m Royal Lodge in Windsor despite demands from the King – with friends now saying only the Chancellor can intervene

============================================

Pity we can’t revert, at times, to other ways, such as, ‘off with his head’, but his head is not the only useless part of his body.

Kate Middleton ‘treats Prince William like a fourth child because he’s prone to tantrums’ – Mirror Online


Royal author Tom Quinn says that William and Kate’s marital success has much to do with the late Queen’s legacy of peacekeeping in the family following her age-old motto of ‘never complain, never explain’

============================================

It is clear that William is just as troubled as Harry, but being the heir has to not show it at all, which is the Royal way. But keeping quiet is not always the best way, in fact, it is never the best way and could lead to many health issues.

With the divorce from Diana and then her death, Charles was forced to be more of a father than he had ever been and the loss of Diana had and is still currently affecting both William and Harry.

The Royal family has always been dysfunctional way before William, Harry and Diana, for only Edward appears to have married his first choice while Charles, Andrew and Anne were not allowed to.

While the tight reigns on family issues continue, health issues will continue so much more to arise and fester.

Just because a family is so rich and privileged does not mean usual family issues don’t occur and in the Royal family appear to be never dealt with effectively.

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex wrote to King Charles over racism concerns


Revelations come after Duchess of Sussex confirms she will not come to Britain for Charles’s Coronation

============================================

Meghan had concerns so she was well in her rights to write to Charles, whether her concerns were founded or not, we may never know, but I do feel there is some element of racism there.

What I do observe is that the Royal Family is not all it appears to be and perhaps never was, but currently, just over the UK population adore them, but not so many of the younger population, so in time the popularity could go under 50%.

I believe Meghan was right not to come for the Coronation and maybe Harry should not be doing, but it appears he is.

As to the Coronation, I am not that bothered, not that I am anti-monarchy, but I can’t stand Charles and Camilla, so perhaps I would favour William, if I am still around when it occurs. The Old Queen Elizabeth I could accept in small does, but Prince Philip never.

As to the UK ever becoming a Republic, well it could eventually, but I hope not for many years. I could not have coped with a President Blair, or Boris and certainly not Truss or even a future Starmer.

Exclusive: The photo that ‘clears Prince Andrew’ over bath sex


Maxwell lawyers claim ‘frolicking’ with Duke of York could not happen because there was not enough room

============================================

Whatever the photo suggests, if there is the ‘will there is always a way’, for some even say it has occurred for them in a Mini or even a small MG.

Prince Andrew, by association with Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein is guilty of something, whatever it is will we ever know?, well not in our lifetimes.

The royals’ shroud of secrecy serves a dismaying purpose | Jemimah Steinfeld | The Guardian


Prince Harry aside, the royals excel at hiding information about themselves – and this prevents them being held to account, says Jemimah Steinfeld, editor in chief of Index on Censorship

============================================

To a large extent, the popularity of the Royal Family is diminishing, but there are still many who will support the Royal Family to their dying day, both their own and the Royal Families.

While I do believe there is far too much secrecy I don’t, surprisingly, wish for the abolition of the Royal Family, just the opposite, just wish for less secrecy.

Many people do feel the Royal Family does no wrong, but as we all are, we are all human and mere mortals and the Royal Family is just the same, but so much richer and so privileged.

The secrecy needs to be lifted so that we will all know what they are all about and the Family does need to be so much more streamlined, which King Charles III has promised to do, but not I expect to the extent that it should be.

Other countries’ Royalties have done so and so should ours.

Breaking: not ONE refugee accepted via Afghan Resettlement Scheme in past twelve months | SKWAWKBOX 


Stark contrast to treatment of Ukrainian refugees

News has emerged today that the UK government has not accepted a single refugee under the Afghan Resettlement Scheme in the past twelve months.

The scheme is meant to help Afghans and their familes who assisted western forces during the Afghan conflict, yet the complete absence of successful applications stands in stark contrast to the eagerness of the UK government to make room for and fund Ukrainian refugees. Critics have accused the government of treating refugees differently depending on their skin tone and religion.

=========================================================================================================

This is, unfortunately, so expected because the UK Immigration Policy is so unfit for purpose and many other policies and so discriminatory.

But the UK Establishment have from time immemorial have taken what they want and then cast aside what is left, it is how the wealth of the Establishment was built up, which many in the UK fail to realise or don’t really care.

There are parts of the Establishment that are admired and virtually worshipped mainly down to their PR and secrecy and the lack of disbelief in many areas of the UK population that they can do no wrong, even when some forms of proof are before them. In some respects the UK population has been ‘groomed.

But the respect and popularity of the establishment is gradually diminishing, so some of the UK population are seeing the ‘light’, but very slowly.

Harry’s allegations are not just about a royal fist fight – but the very real dangers of hereditary power | Gaby Hinsliff | The Guardian


The personal is political when resentment is baked into a monarchy whose instinct is to protect the heir at all costs, says Guardian columnist Gaby Hinsliff

============================================

Siblingly rivally will n ot be good in any family, b ut even more so when everything is within the stoplight.

In years gone by this would generally have not been noticed by the public at large for it would have been behind many doors and many when it did surface would have been confined to imprisonment, mainly in the Tower of London or even worse the death of one who was not as powerful as the other. But these days we have the media in many ways and it is so accessible. So, when one wishes to speak out there are many ways to do it and the establishment tends to go into a ‘veil of secrecy’, or it is so assumed, but then there are the leaks from, apparently, unknown sources, but are they?

Now, while the popularity of the UK Monarchy is diminishing, now much more so than previously, there is still a very loyal section of the UK community for whom the Royal Family can do no wrong and anyone who casts otherwise is severely put down.

Now I don’t know if Harry and Meghan are saying as it is or as they believe it is for in many instances we are only hearing one side, except for the, supposed leaks, from supposed royal sources.

Now, while what they say may not be truly true, there is much that could be be, b ut many just dismiss what Harry and Meghan say without any reaL proof what is true and what is not.

Over the years, when archived information is released either intentionaly or not some of what is being said by Harry and Meghan has occurred many times before in one way and another.

In recent years we have had the spares Prince Andrew and before Princess Margaret, both who were not allowed to be with their so believed first loved, could this have led to behaviours that one would not have expected from Royal persons, but we do tend to forget that even with all the wealth and privileges they are when it comes down only human, with the usual human feelings, no matter how they have been brought up to not do.

Love, after all is love and being denied to love can have serious consequences on anyone.

Harry was brought up in a much freer age and Diana was also not that endearing to Royal life and we all kn ow, to a large extent what happened to her and much is still well unknown, for what occurred happening in the area of wealth, power and much secrecy and very much unanswered.

These two young boys have had to contend with, within the trappings of Royal traditions, secrecy, power, privilege and much more so is it not surprising that some problems could have well occurred.

Harry is coming forward with his version, but The Establishment is keeping quiet, which they have the right to do, but is it because what is being said is true, partly true or not true to some degrees. None of us will really know, but some are acting as they really do out of their feelings for the Monarchy, they maybe right and maybe not.

But, like it or not we do have, to much concent, the Right of Free Speech which Harry and Meghan are exercising.  We have no knowledge of their health and certainly thier mental state, but from what I do see, I know that, I for one, would not have wished to be there and feel I am so lucky that I will never be.

King Charles ‘has totally outplayed Harry and Meghan’ with response to Netflix doc – Mirror Online


Many, if not all families have their disagreements and the RF is no exception, except in some respects it is in public view through the eyes of the UK Press. However, with the RF supposedly making no comment, where do the Press get their facts, or are they really facts. They say it is from a Royal source, so are the Press, perhaps talking to the Corgis.
