The British Monarchy

[mackenzie]

Closer to it than the royal family, certainly, but further away from it than most people in the UK (and the vast majority of people on earth).

There will always be people with money. There will always be injustice and there will always be different experiences in life, right across the board.
I'm not sure there will ever be anything else.
Yet I'm not jealous of anyone who is born into the RF or indeed marries into it.
Good luck to them.

No mate I most certainly am not.

You and I both know and can read behind the lines though, and there's plenty of hate. The only way this could be decided is through a referendum but people who have their views challenged just don't like the truth.

If republicans and liberals thought they could get is past a referendum they'd be screaming for one.

You think I’ve got time to actively hate the royal family? It’s just a thread on a fucking football forum to take the piss.

They wanted to control their media coverage to protect the privacy in their lives when they wanted it to remain private.

Everyone in the limelight will want to control it.

Nature of the beast says they never will.

Nobody knows that mate, mind you the great unwashed love a good yarn ;)

As always, time will tell.

They do more so now though, which is what they wanted. They were never going to become hermits. They need to earn money now, so they do the engagements and gigs that they want to do.

If they hadn’t criticised the royal family, they’d have been allowed to swan off into the sunset. However, they did, and became targets on the back of that.

Neither am I.

And just because there has always been—and will always be—inequality doesn’t mean we can’t point out when people are intentionally or unintentionally trying to obfuscate it and the inherent issues with it, especially when it is based on excepting the narrative very carefully crafted by those that stand to benefit most from its acceptance as inevitable and inconsequential.

If you can't see that some have then maybe look harder? Weird how the 2 people on this thread from the other side think that I mean them and the others just snipe and try to bully.

Hell even the "What about the others" has been mentioned yet again.

In 60 years time when Kate dies the people will say "She finally left him".

Again, you’re talking nonsense. There‘s no hatred on here. Hyperbole once again.

I don’t look at it that deeply tbh.
