Prince Harry

Plenty of chips on shoulders on show here.

Yep- any post on the royals/the wealthy/The conservatives and they all wade in often without facts- so I'll repeat my post.

1) I understand that point of view. But he's a serving officer who's done a tour of duty in Afghanistan. Hasn't he earned the right to let his hair down in the same way as other young, single soldiers do? He just wants to do his job, i.e. serve in Afghan. Then some dickhead leaks details of his deployment because apparently it's in the public's interest. Death by blunt stick.

2) We're not paying for his lifestyle either. The tax payer only foots the bill for the RF's official duties. Everything else comes from their private income from Balmoral and Sandringham, which they own. Even the Sovereign Grant is self-funding, being only 15% of the total income of the Crown estate, the other 85% going into Government coffers. So, you're not really even paying for that. And they've owned all that stuff for generations, so we're not going to miss it.

If this was Mario then the attitude would be "what a waster, when is he going to start doing it on the pitch?" etc etc.

But because it's Harry, it's seen as cool. Let's face facts, this guy does not represent me just because he was born into a rich family who supposedly govern us.

Whilst he may be an Army Office in name, I know for a fact that he did not sit the Army Office Selection Board and he's also supposed to be a terrible soldier. I have relatives in his regiment and that have worked with him, he's a part timer. Meant to be a decent bloke, though.

The ultimate benefit scroungers. No wonder the country is in the state it's in.

I doubt you'll be working as hard as the queen does at her age.

If his life is in as much danger as any other soldier when he's on active duty, then he has my respect.

Can all the anti royals stay off this thread please and not turn it into a royal bashing thread? Feel free to make one on that subject though.

I posted it because I think Harry is a top guy and funny as fook so let's not politicise this one?

Piss off if this was Tony Blairs son the DM would have 2 pages of it for the next 2 weeks,Harry is a chip of the old block but you can bet the media will not bring that up.

I respect all of our service men and women who put their arses on the line to protect our femdoms every time they go on tour- just because Harry is "posh" it changes nothing. Very easy for some people on here to judge behind a keyboard with a pumpkin muffin and a fairtrade coffee, lets see how big they are when the bullets start to fly.

Freudian slip there mate?

Nothing wrong with a bit of trampling.

Grew up on handouts, has barely worked a day in his life and uses his state benefits to have it large in Vegas yet this seems to be a cause for celebration and slaps on the back.

Would it be the same goodwill if his name was Barry not Harry? And instead of using his state handouts on a piss-up in America he bought a 42 inch HD telly?

From previous threads on here I highly doubt that. Strange double standards from some.

Working class kid behaving like that is a thug, a layabout and a benefit cheat. He probably pretends to be disabled too.

A royal doing it is fine.

Christ only knows how much of the taxpayers money was spent on dildos for Diana and hitmen for Charles.

Not here to fall out mate but you're wrong on a few things here.....

Hope that helps.

I don't have any personal grudge against him but he's got blood on his hands. I'm a purist, you know how I roll.
