The Harry and Meghan fuss

[domalino]

I wasn’t confused with that, I understand that, I was confused with your point but now I understand.

The reasoning given was anti discrimination against girls but I also, just guessing as a parent and grandparent myself, that having siblings with different titles growing up isn’t exactly nice and must be confusing for them.

So as a grandparent yourself you understand how fucking weird it is to go out of your way to make some of your grandchildren princes/princesses and not doing it to the others.

So constructing strawmen again?

The fact there have been exceptions proves the point that the Queen could have changed the whole situation with the stroke of a pen.

Nobody has argued she couldn’t have done it.

The argument is should she have done that.

The point Meghan raises on discussions around race should be… did the Queen not change it because Archie was mixed race?

And considering in the interview they’ve said it wasn’t a senior royal who questioned his skin colour, I would suggest there’s zero evidence that’s why.

I’ll never know what it’s like to be the Head of State for a country and have to tread carefully with public perception.

Royal Convention has to draw a line somewhere and the question is always where and who gets left out.

Charles is predicted to slim down the family again, so more will be left out.

I’m guessing when Yaya Toure questioned whether Pep had a problem with African players you rushed to his defence and said nobody could prove what Yaya was implying in court?

What a ridiculous argument and stop behaving like a child with Fode, who is a child, you’re in your 50s man.

You can fuck off with that!

FYC

Fixed that for you

This whole conversation is just another example as to why the monarchy should have no place in the constitution of a modern State.
