I find this outrageous.
Harry & Meghan step back from Royals - seeking financial independence
- Thread starter sammsky1
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss three 1-1 draws.
The first got us knocked out of the FA Cup, the next puts us in a good position in our Round of 16 Europa League game, and the latest was an actual decent performance against Arsenal at Old Trafford.
All hopes for the season now rest on the Europa League - does Amorim have the squad to win it?
Thanks Eamonn for that insight, you stupid fat prick.
Prince Charles 'threatens to withhold cash' from Harry and Meghan if they dump royal duties
Absolutely fecking mental.
So, she wants to keep her house, her allowance, her rights to t-shirts selling, she wants to keep the security details, etc.
Which part of financial independence we're talking about?
Which part of financial independence we're talking about?
Where's the evidence of this? Why do you think it's only her?
Does she sell t-shirts then?
For anyone interested:
For anyone interested:
Well suddenly the prince has the nous to sell t-shirts with image rights? Something telling me it's her
So no evidence or facts then.
Anyone think she need a bit more eye makeup in that pic? @villain ? Looks a bit washed out, maybe?
yes, the selling of t shirts of yourself is biiiig business alright. and it's not like they're already multi millionaires or anything.
It's funny, early this morning someone mentioned Edward VIII. He married an American divorcee and they ended up living in semi-exile in France - albeit in the lap of absolute luxury, even though he'd abdicated in order to marry said divorcee. Of course, in modern times Charles was able to marry a divorced woman and retain his position as heir to the Queen, because times have changed along with public attitudes to divorce. Even in the 1950s the Queen's sister Margaret didn't marry Peter Townsend because he was divorced and she was told she'd have to give up her Royal status to marry him.
Back in the 1930s, Edward was widely-considered to be weak and a bit of a bounder because he wasn't up to doing his duty, which was considered a much more important thing than personal happiness. Harry would never have been in this position if Edward VIII had remained as King, because the younger brother George (the Queen's father) wouldn't have had to step into his shoes. No Queen (she'd have just been another Royal princess), no Charles as the next King, no "senior" Royals in that branch of the family.
Since Victoria, the monarchy has been holding firm on the "old values" (at least in public). However, access to information about them can't really be controlled anymore, and people now know a lot more about the parts of their lives they'd probably prefer to keep hidden (like the excruciatingly-embarrassing private conversations between Charles and Camilla). Things were bound to fall apart sooner or later. I think if the Queen hadn't been so long-lived, it would have changed before now.

Not even surprised, he previously described her as uppity for having the temerity to ask not to be photographed by an overly intrusive spectator at Wimbledon. The treatment she's received from the media paints them in such a poor light. I'm looking forward to these dinosaurs fade into obscurity.
Knew it existed but didn't know people cared as much as they did. Saw someone say on twitter they don't need to know someone to dislike them. Someone obviously responded with okay then, what has Meghan done to make you dislike her? What was the rebuttal? Well I know I hate Ian Huntley without meeting him so I can hate Meghan too without meeting her, I just don't like her.
fecking loony bins. It's disgusting the treatment she receives.
The Harry and Meghan royal news, in terms a corporate CEO can understand

Of course one of the callers was called Karen
She should've been asked if she'd like to speak to the manager.
At first I thought they're doing a brave thing by living completely independently but turns out they just want the benefit of Hollywood and royalty at the same time
I like him even more now!
I mean it is kinda crazy that Prince Harry is currently getting more heat for stepping down than Prince Andrew for his links to a convicted nonce!
I was going to say something similar but yours is much more to the point.
Eamon Holmes eh. Probably the most irritating and self opinionated man alive.
Not to mention Edward was a foaming nazi sympathizer
The establishment will always look after its own.
SHE STOLE OUR HARRY
What's your evidence?
Had to beg the gym attendant to change the channel, it's all they were talking about on the morning talk show
If the Royal Family cuts them off from the money they should rock up on the I'm a Celebrity Jungle thing, just to make everyone lose their minds.
Stumbled upon this on Twitter. It's the same fecking paper even!
Yes, he was that as well, wooed by the Nazis and he was happy to go along with it. Of course, the Royals had to change their surname from Saxe-Coburg-Gotha to Windsor, because the former didn't sound so good during the First World War.
Anyone that believes racism doesn't play is a role is a mug.
This whole shambles has been an eye opener about this country. It's disgusting.
As someone said, the queen, Charles and William watched the media chase a woman of colour out of the royal family and never...never uttered a word. Feck the lot of them.

Hard not to cheer on Megan and Harry when you look at the odious attention whores they are up against.
100% the right wing media are a shambles.
Unpopular opinion on here, but I just don't see it like this at all, not sure many sane people do either.
Racism is hardly ever in plain sight.
Were you expecting the newspapers to call her insults just so you can ‘see’ the underlying racism at play?
What would it take for you to see racism?
Continue to call the PoC who recognise her treatment as exactly what it is, not ‘sane’ though - we experience it continually, and our voices continue to be unheard because of attitudes like this.
EXCLUSIVE: Harry’s girl is (almost) straight outta Compton: Gang-scarred home of her mother revealed – so will he be dropping by for tea?”
“from slaves to royalty, Meghan Markle’s upwardly mobile family.”
Journalist Rachel Johnson, the sister of British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson, once wrote in The Mail on Sunday newspaper that Markle could help bring "rich and exotic DNA" to the royal family. She also described Markle’s mother as "a dreadlocked African-American lady from the wrong side of the tracks."
No racism what so ever here
