The Harry and Meghan fuss

It's much easier for those of us who believe the monarchy is an outdated nonsense that should be scrapped.

Among my many reasons for this belief is that the 'institution' forces people (not least those members of it) to behave in ways that are wholly unnatural, false and indeed toxic. The likes of William and 'Kate' for example, are forced to put on a facade of 'happy families' because it's what the punters demand. (There are powerful rumours that suggest not all is as pretty as it seems, but who knows? A veil of secrecy is cast over anything that spoils the image. We only found out about Andrew because the main action was in the USA. Had it happened here, the chances are it would just be rumours among the informed.)

That some 'inmates' kick against the system is hardly surprising. Diana did because she could not accept the long-standing convention that the family males were free to play away. Harry is reacting to what he perceives as racism against his wife, but also, I suspect, against other outdated aspects. Harry and his wife are being slaughtered in the RW press because they are rocking the boat. How dare they? No one actually cares whether what they are saying has a basis of fact or not. No, it's damaging the image people want to hold. It's like telling young children that Father Christmas isn't real. Hence the outrage.

The British press is out of control.
