Harry’s ‘pop’ at Charles

(316 Posts)

Harry has apparently had another pop at his dad this time regarding the payment for honours debacle. Harry seems to keep on attacking Charles and I wondered if there might be a particular reason for this. In all of the multitudinous reports on their estrangement I haven’t seen anyone wondering if H is doing this because he believes/knows Charles is not his dad. I am not suggesting that is true but it may be his ‘truth’ as others have put it. Perhaps it would go some way to explain his seeming lack of belonging. Just musing on a grey day, please feel free to wade in or not as the case maybe.

I didn't mean Meghan.

Don't hate him in the slightest.

I just think he's a bit daft, unaware of what he says then does and its impact on others. The travel by private jet to lecture us on what not to do was one instance. I think a few people are a bit daft but I don't hate them as I don't know them.

He does keep us entertained, though!!

All RF travel by private jet and waste £millions of public money ?

Thanks for your sympathy Alegrias. I appreciate it. The only comment I have made about how other people survive after walking out of a job is that it’s not as easy for ‘ordinary people’ as Harry seems to think. As regards Meghan leaving her ‘job’, I have never believed her stories about her MH, having experienced severe depression myself. She’s a professional actress I know, but there are limits to the act anyone can put on in that situation.

Calistemon Forgive me, I beg you ?,

Anniebach Tue 07-Dec-21 15:51:33

If someone said they had depression and wanted to leave their
job , say ‘I am so sorry, hope things improve for you,good luck’

Calistemon Tue 07-Dec-21 15:51:25

Anniebach - behave yourself!

Priceless (again)

Alegrias1 Tue 07-Dec-21 15:46:11

Oh do give over.

Anniebach posted them, I responded and you tried to say there was nothing disgraceful. I'm not insinuating anything about you as anyone reading the thread would see. Not the same in reverse though.

Its not all about you.

Calistemon Tue 07-Dec-21 15:42:37

I didn't ask them so stop trying to insinuate that I did.

And as you know nothing at all about me, stop trying to twist what I post on thread after thread.

Thank you.

Alegrias1 Tue 07-Dec-21 15:37:37

Yes Calistemon, disgraceful.

There were questions directed at specific people about how they lived.

If someone came on here and said they'd have to leave work because they had a physical illness, cancer for instance, would we condone asking them if they lived off benefits? Would we ask them if their partner was working and had a wage? Would we want to know if they were a single parent, not to offer sympathy and advice, but to cast some doubt on whether they were right to make the decision they did?

Bl**dy disgraceful, and if you don't know why, then I don't know how to explain it to you.

I would have loved to have walked away from my very very stressful job and no one to this day knows the untold suffering it brought to my family. But I had many people relying on me, and on me alone, to provide them with with an income, an education and security in their lives. Call it responsibility, call it duty.
That is why I am dismayed and saddened at Harry saying people should just walk away when the going gets tough.

Calistemon Tue 07-Dec-21 15:29:37

Holy s***.

This thread is a disgrace in so many ways

I agree, accusing posters of being filled with hate because we mildly criticise a pampered, spoilt young man? Disgraceful.

Condemnation of those who ask how a person with a family to support, who was on the breadline anyway, would survive if they walked out of their job? Disgraceful.

Alegrias1 Tue 07-Dec-21 15:28:41

I'm sorry to read that GSM, seriously. I'm sorry that you had to go through that.

So I would have thought you might have had more sympathy for other people in the same situation.

Isn't there a certain well known and well liked Duchess who left her "job" of being a well known and highly visible Royal because of her MH issues? But then she wasn't living off benefits so I suppose that's OK. She'd managed to get herself married to a rich man so she was allowed to have MH issues and do something to fix them.

How I wish I could have left the job which contributed hugely to my depression. I was on my own with a young child. No contribution from my ex. We would have lost our home that’s for sure. God knows how we would have coped, but after walking out of a job without another one lined up I think my prospects in the job market would have been pretty dire. Harry really has no idea. He lives in a gilded palace in la la land.

Off work for a couple of years, lived off benefits?

trisher when you walked out were you married with a wage
earning husband, or did you pay rent etc from benefits ?

Some think everyone has savings, no worries about the rent or
putting food on the table.

Those who support Harry’s advise , did you walk out of your job, were you a one parent family ?
Holy s***.

This thread is a disgrace in so many ways

Why is it a disgrace Alegrias1 you said a contact of yours had
left their job, trisher said she did so .

All I asked was how did they manage to live between jobs

Its none of your business how a person lives and its none of your business whether a person is married or not.

If someone is ill enough not to work, its none of anybody's business about how they support themselves.

I deleted the swear words.

I don't hate Harry either but his behaviour irritates me because I really dislike hypocrisy and their 'do as we say but not as we do' attitude.

His disloyalty to the RF having milked the benefits is bound to ruffle feathers - with his own misdemeanors happily swept under the carpet.

Sorry trisher but most posters on GN who are irritated by Harry, myself included, are some of the least enraged, aggressive, malicious, agitated or frightened posters on GN.

Spot on, Josianne

I'm still laughing?
But I am a bit frightened that a royal security policeman might be knocking on the door any minute!
Will he arrest me if I'm aggressive?

Sorry but all the posts lambasting Harry show real hate for him. You may say you don't hate him, the things written show some do- meaning of hate- intense hostility and aversion usually deriving from fear, anger, or sense of injury^

I don't see what a post about an organsation set up to help young people has to do with the discussion. Diana did a huge amount for Aids awareness and helped to promote the banning of land mines. The Halo Trust is still working to eradicate them and Harry supports it www.halotrust.org/about-us/who-we-are/our-history/ . Landmine Free 2025.

I think that H&M show their daftness and self-absorption if they keep attacking the Royal Family and attracting attention.

Something much more serious is happening and Andrew is involved. Perhaps not discussing it is a good idea whilst the trial is underway.
