The Harry and Meghan fuss

[Ancient Citizen]

I am British, I don't hate the Royal Family, just don't think we need one.

For Meghan to be asked how dark her babies skin might be is just fucking disgusting. Being more concerned about a babies skin colour than its health makes me feel sick. I couldnt care less if Meghan was a slapper from Stretford nobody deserves to be treated like that. Nobody.

And anyone justifying it is a sick **** as well.

She has made a claim, along with others that she, and him, refuses to verify.
I understand the glee from anti Royalists about these so called 'Revelations,'
anything that trashes the institution is welcome to them, but blind acceptance
of what she says is not happening in the real world.

That is a fair point, it may have been embellished.

Why would she embellish it though, to what end?

Maybe because she feels aggrieved about something?

Tbh I don’t have a clue what to believe.

 

[leeneel]

Maybe because she showed far more common decency to them than was shown to her.

Or she is making it up? Call me old fashioned but an accusation of wrongdoing should be accompanied by proof.

Still it’s got tongues wagging and no doubt ink dried on more media deals.

What a load of bollocks.

What you've got on this thread is anti-Royalists jumping all over it with faux-outrage because what Harry & Meghan have said reinforces their point of view.

You & others have no idea (nor do I) what really went on or whether any of these unsubstantiated claims are true but you're more than happy to believe them as it suits your agenda.

It's obvious really, the usual far left reaction to stuff like this, with mutual
back slapping and faux outrage based on what this woman and her now
gone forever partner cry about. It's already littered with cap doffing and Tories, so it's the same old, same old kicks at the country and institutions
they loathe so much.

I have made no comment on the veracity of the comments made in the interview just the reaction of some posters.

All you have done is illustrate my point.

 

[Ancient Citizen]

Why didn’t she give a name when asked to do so?

Bit late to claim it would be very damaging when you are making an accusation like that don’t you think?

Just a bit.

 

[west didsblue]

Her credibility isn’t great tbh, when you look at her relationship with her own family.

'Yours,' So you are not British then?
If you're Danish, Dutch, Belgian, Swedish, Norwegian or Spanish, do you hate theirs as well? The go to slur for all of your ilk is 'Institutional racism,' so give us the proof of it, tell us the racist comments that have been printed in the national press, Give us the names of those members of the Royal family, cited as racists by a second rate actress, prove these racism accusations.

No, I'm British. I don't hate them, just think they are outdated and need to go. Some of those monarchies have a less prominent role and have modernised.

Denmark conducted a referendum on female primogeniture. Nobody is going to prove accusations of racism against individuals on an internet forum. I said it was institutionally racist, as evidenced by the allegation about discussions about colour of a baby and the inferred importance of it in public opinion.

Hardly. As previously stated, I've no strong feelings either way about the Royal Family.

I'm no slave to the establishment and if the Royal Family warrant criticism them they should receive it. The Prince Andrew / Epstein incident being a case in point.

I'd never doff my cap to anyone nor do I beieve anyone anyone is better than anyone else purely through an accidenrt of birth.

What I haven't got is a massive chip on my shoulder meaning I don't take what people say as gospel without any proof, evidence or context and then use it as a way to promote any agenda I may have.

Nonsense, utter nonsense.
Imagine if the palace said something like, 'Megan Markle said a member
of staff called her a black woman.'
That would then create a (justifiable) backlash and a furious demand to name names, all this is just another anti royal rant from the usual suspects.
