They are increasingly an embarrassment, out of touch, take a shitload of taxpayers money and live in palaces with hundreds of servants while mugs up and down the country cheer them on for it. I expect they are having a really good laugh at all the fools who are basically enabling the whole farce to continue.

"They also bring in a lot to the economy though" people will argue.

Tourists would suddenly stop visiting royal castles and palaces if nobody resided in them, apparently. Sadly, nobody has visited visited Hampton Court in centuries because it's vacant.

More people go to Versailles every year than Buckingham palace. Remind me what they did with their Royal Family

Yes, what a load of nonsense.
Number of people visiting the palace of versailles each year is in excess of 5 million - buckingham palace 500 thousand.

So perhaps the french monarchy are 10 times better at bringing in the tourists, despite being dead for hundreds of years,

ffs.not many travel to the uk to get a glimpse of geriatric royals.

Won't someone just set fire to the c.unts!? (The Royals I mean not Harry and Meghan).

Sounds great.

I went a couple of years ago. The gardens were amazing... And not a monarch in sight :hehe:

There was a poll on sky earlier. Those in support of Meghan and Harry were in the younger age group.

Those not supportive were generally the old farts and specifically tory old farts😂😂😂

Bluetit and his mate hanging out outside the palace during the off season

A year ago I would have agreed with you.

However hes held this useless government more to account than anyone

The useless front bench will be delighted.

Indeed. If tourist attractions were the arbiter of who should be the Head of State then Mickey Mouse should be in permanent residence in the White House (which would have been a good alternative to the last incumbent).

That's obviously wrong and completely inaccurate. Bluetit hasn't got a mate.

It looks like Piers the Plank was wrong and Meg & Haz we’re right

Time to get rid in my opinion, there’s a multitude of them on the civil list all by accident of birth, what use are they bar a drain on society? If Harry and Meghan want to wash their hands of it they should pay his father and grandmother the millions that they spent on their wedding.........oh hang on, we paid for it. How many palaces, castles, mansions, estates does one family need? And a huge question is when is Andrew going to be brought to book? Aside from the accusations against him, the f*cker swans around on our money.... parasites!!!!

Meant to say in my other response that he has probably been on the phone to Andrew Neill already!!

You can bet the venn diagram of people who hate harry and megan, also hate gary linekar for being paid to much at the bbc and lilly allen for having a spare bedroom is a ****ing circle.

Not sure there’s many folk who “ hate” Harry and Meghan.

Damn Swans!

It seems as though the media are trying to stir up a ‘taking sides’ situation, the memes and jokes I’ve had about it on WhatsApp have brightened up the lockdown monotony a fair bit, far from taking sides, most people seem to be having a good laugh about it.

I am

Going by what they both revealed in last nights interview, it’s no wonder they both felt like making a clean break and moving abroad for a quieter and less intrusive lifestyle.
So why put themselves back in the world spotlight by airing everything in public?
Doesn’t make sense to me.

I tend to agree.

I can kind of understand a few women being interested in this silly soap opera but men? No, that beats me!

I have no time for them really and am surprised that there are so many strong views on this thread I started.

On an unrelated topic I have clashed with Meghans and Harrys charity organisation - while they support some good work they are supporting a damaging orphanage in Nepal - those who know me know I'm child protection and development specialist and work on care reform globally... and that supporting orphanages is hugely damaging to children and families. We also clash with other members of the royals who support orphanages. The organisation I work for have a project in Nepal and have raised alarm bells about that particular place.... but because they are royals (or were) their people are pretty closed to discussions about it.

However, while I am sure they are making a lot of money out of the TV interview, I would argue that they probably felt it was the only option to put the record straight, globally, as in the UK the 'palace' has the whole british national and royalist toxic media to do their bidding and continuing to attack Meghan and Harry. The UK media is an abomination.

Lad!!

All this bloody hullabaloo over 2 people, media are crucifying them and they haven’t committed any crime, yet Andy has got away with everything he’s been linked to regarding the paedophile Epstein. Media are really bellends in this country.
Makes you want to puke.

If only Prince Andrew had ignored Piers Morgan’s Snapchats rather than just been a sex offender he’d have got a bit more hate.

to follow up on a post earlier in this thread (that I can't find)

there was a poll today on whether we should remain a monarchy, or instead have an elected head of state and the results were 66:34 in favour of monarchy.
this is quite a big increase towards ditching the monarchy already. this kind of poll usually is 70-80 in favour of the whole daft business continuing so it represents good progress.
in the 35 and under age group there was a majority in favour of ditching the royals.

I imagine anti-monarchy sentiment will grow once the Queen dies as well, Charles isn't particularly popular
