She's going to be destroyed by the press. She needs to research how the British media is not the Royal's. Oprah has inadvertently given her enough rope to hang herself. I say inadvertently, she's probably making a fortune out of this. Everytime she crosses someone it's going to be splashed all across the papers. Social media is going to be brutal. Stupid little girl.

30 minutes in including adverts and intro and it feels like I’ve heard it all. Like the way they show the natural and rustic chicken houses and not the luxury inside the 16 bathroom mansion. You can’t fool us as easily as some of the Americans. Some are very stupid.

Stupid little girl. Oprah doesn’t interrogate her enough to expose some of the inconsistencies and contradictions. And she doesn’t pull up on great grandchildren to the monarch aren’t given Prince titles until charles is king. She isn’t special to change the history. She just thinks she is. And so will millions on her side watching it.

The treatment they 'think' theyve been given is clearly alone in their heads. When you say that its clear your hoping for an expose of what 'might' have happened. You don't know any better than I do whether what they think is the whole truth or not but it is not really very likely to be entirely false so just "alone in their heads" is it? Too much being said for that to be true. I have no wish for any kind of expose and much prefer that anything that needs to be done is managed quietly.
For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally. |

Many consider the Monarchy to be one of our strongest corporate brands. It’s an interesting theory and one I subscribe to. You can knock their importance and marginalise them as much as you want however when it comes to international ties there are stronger relationships between royal families than between governments and this makes us more money than we ever pay them. Edit: I agree that the Monarchy should be slimmed down. Edited by Eaglecoops (08 Mar 2021 9.05pm) The direction of travel for the monarchy is down, not up. And yes, it’s a brand. That’s the point I’m making, but a ceremonial, tourist geared one not a commercial powerhouse funded by the taxpayer. They’re not corporate - let’s not make them out to be a traditional business. Maybe last century, not now. I’d certainly dispute how central you perceive the monarchy to the business of revenue generation - by which I can only assume you mean they’re central to the business of international governance, trade and therefore pivotal to GDP, and the economy. They certainly contribute massively to brand Britain in some parts but on the tourist dollar. Again, ceremonial. I get why people overstate their importance due to age and nostalgia - but it’s not reality, and it certainly won’t be in future. That applies for a lot of European monarchies, not just ours

Indeed - amazing how partisan the oldies are about the firm Can do ney wrong As I’ve said before, both sides appear to be about as bad as each other

Context is everything. I’ve even read lefties on the bbs say this and discuss that it isn’t immediately racist. It isn’t even necessarily racist. Can sometimes be racial ignorance or just ignorance. Did they block or try and block the marriage and any chance of any babies? No.

No. You are right here - if the context was the press will have a field day about a brown royal baby etc. Maybe that was the context. Maybe it wasn’t. Who knows However racism is racism whether expressed as a result of racial ignorance or not. Seems like an attempt to excuse it but I could be wrong. Edited by SW19 CPFC (08 Mar 2021 10.11pm)
