Latest on Harry and Meghan

The one thing I can’t understand though is how can a mother leave her baby in another continent?

Why not ask the queen? She used to do it for months on end

Maddy, I saw the footage.

Read back on this thread a few pages and you’ll see the poster saying that Meghan has proved to be the social climber they expected her to be

A lot of people thought she was a social climber but welcomed her anyway, hoping they were wrong!

Not exactly a welcome with open arms then is it?

Far more cautious acceptance

Bridgeit I suppose One would have to read up on what constitutes a racist , and or offensive remark.

Well that depends on where you read it. Personally, I don’t believe we need to rely on others to tell us what is racist. Any prejudice based on the colour of an individual’s skin or origin is racist. Some on this forum believe any criticism of anyone of colour is racist.

It's still possible to welcome her with open arms and hope you are wrong Summerlove. Just as a parent would welcome their prospective son-in-law even if they are worrying that he might be a loser!

Agree to disagree chestnut

Open arms to me, means without reservations.

Seems false so say someone is welcomed with open arms while considering the worst

GracesGran You quoted that whoever has a haughty look and arrogant heart I will not endure. My point being you seem to endure them pretty well on other threads where you’re in agreement with arrogant hearts and minds!

Well I expect it’s reasonable to deduce from this discussion that some people in Britain had some reservations about Meghan, whilst others welcomed her with open arms.

I did have reservations, the solo walk down the aisle, so

Summerlove … your quote was based on 1 post claiming she was a social climber?
I haven't checked back. I will if I can be bothered.

First of all its different people holding differing opinions. Of which they are entitled.
The two statements aren't mutually exclusive, as she could obviously be both welcomed and a social climber.
So marmalading them together is of no use, unless you want to try build a unsustainable bias argument.

The fact that people have an opinion that she is a social climber doesn't negate her actually being one.

In any event, in my book she can socially climb all she wants, she should (well they both should) have the grace to not bite the hand that feeds them.
But I'm well aware we're past that point now.

Funny isn't it how gossiping is fine until people say something one doesn't like? Anyone watching the trouble with Maggie on itv?

Meghan couldn't behave the way she has without Harry's collusion.
In my opinion, to revert to the bible again, he has sold his birthright for a mess of pottage.

Agree eazybee

Annie, the P of W gallantly escorted Meghan, rescuing her from her sad, lonely walk! Call me an old cynic but I'm not sure that he was supposed to do that else surely it would have been pre arranged ? I think M.M hoped to present a sad lonely figure that nobody had thought to escort (the wicked RF of course!) and that we would all be sympathtic to. P.C of course scotched that attempt at self pity! Just a thought of course!!!

Here is something from the Bible.

3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

Well I expect it’s reasonable to deduce from this discussion that some people in Britain had some reservations about Meghan, whilst others welcomed her with open arms.

This is just my point

It’s revisionist history Of some here to claim that everyone welcomed her, when others Even here are saying that isn’t the case.

namsnanny, I appreciate that people are entitled to different opinions.

In fact that was kind of my point.

Maybe next time “you’ll be bothered” to actually read the posts

Jabber Charles met her at the Chancel, the last few steps to the alter, she did the long walk down the nave where the guests were seated on her own.

I think arranged, a bride approaching the alter alone ? No

So, how does this character assassination about somebody you don't know fit in with a Christian faith?

Not sure Annie, Prince Harry did whisper his thanks to his father for clearly saving the day! Who knows. What we do know is that most people welcomed her, those crowds proved that, and wished both of them all good things. How its turned out is sad, disappointing and lets face it a waste of public funds!

Jabber. I can imagine Queenie ‘ walk the Chancel alone ?’ ?

Yes she had a great welcome

There is absolutely no need for that.

But we do know them. We know them by their widely reported public actions and that is what we are discussing.

Well , yes there is. On and on about the woman. Are you all so perfect? I don't know her, do you?

I sat in St. George's Chapel last Sunday for a service and pondered the walk on her own down the aisle. The chancel is very much separated by the screen and it occurred to me that RF wouldn't even have seen her coming, so the lonely walk definitely wasn't for their benefit. I think it was more to show the guests and the rest of the world that her father had behaved badly abandoned her. It smacks of look at me I am a victim, just like in the South Africa interview.
