I am disgusted by the announcement that these two have sacked 15 British members of staff. What are they thinking?
I ask myself 'how would I feel if I'd upped sticks and gone to another country out of loyalty to my employer, only for them to get rid of me 3 months later.
I would be heartbroken and furious.

A lovely photograph of William and Kate in jeans and jackets
thanking the people of Ireland for their welcome.

It was said of the Queen and Margaret, ‘thank God Lillibet
was born first .

80 years on -‘ thank God William was born first ‘

I think that MM is treating this visit as if she were performing in a film! Give a good performance then who knows what may eminate from it in tinslel town who are bound to be watching, a bad or inadequate performance then further 'shows' could be in short supply! P. H has obviously been trained to play his role in all this, and a seemingly bad performance will earn him the wrath of his puppet master!
I guess Archie was left at home as MM doesn't want him to have anything to do with his paternal family, simple as that! I have a feeling that Doria has also been part of this show, perhaps being used or perhaps a willing participant? who knows?!!
If perhaps P.H feels that this behaviour towards the Queen and his father is payback time for their treatment of his mother, then sadly the only person he is really hurting here is his brother and his family. The Queen, is nearing the end of her life, PC may not be King for that long as he too is not a young man, but William will have to pick up the rein:-)s and steer the RF through what could be stormy times. Why on earth would you want to hurt the very person you have always purported to love and with whom you shared that mother and who had nothing to do with her death?!

I certainly echo that Annie!

I was just flicking through clips of Meghan's visit last week to a school in Dagenham, not far from my home town. How she behaves to impress the public, the press, her friends etc is her own business but I wasn't at all comfortable with the way she was openly flirting with the school boy on the assembly stage. Not appropriate.

most of the comments on here refer to hard facts, which have been listed frequently.

So they all have references to facts? I would love to see the source information as, if that is the case this ceases to be gossip doesn't it. Do include references to the original source of the derogatory comments too eazybee.

We are certainly supposed to have freedom of speech. You keep telling me to ignore what you say, why not do the same if you don't like my comments about vicious gossip? People who indulge in it do other people damage and I will not stop asking why you would want to do that. Of course, I can speak freely about what and how you say things on a membership forum or are you trying to "un-platform" me?

How I wish the truth of Diana’s treatment by the queen , Phillip and Charles would be believed .

Harry certainly knows playing the victim gains sympathy, he had a good teacher in his mother.

GracesGranMK3 Sun 08-Mar-20 10:24:56

Don't worry, you will not be judged by this thread. You will be judged by your comments.

I would have no problem with that Chestnut. I despise vicious gossip and I don't care who knows. I always thought gossip like that was pretty much frowned upon by everyone. I now sadly realise that in some cases, that is only if it is aimed at them.

Same old bun-fighters at it again

Anniebach Sun 08-Mar-20 10:28:19

Can we go back to the thread topic please ? Harry and Megan,
not GracesGran.

GracesGranMK3 Sun 08-Mar-20 10:29:36

Well put Chestnut. We all know what GGMk3 is like. Just scroll past her nasty posts.

My posts aren't "nasty" Jane10. Unlike the personal attacks on this thread against people you have no real knowledge of mine are about malicious gossip. They attack a genera way of expressing an opinion, not the people - which is more than can be said for the majority of posts on this thread.

Interesting that you see them in that way though.

Turning a GN into HagsNet... with their spiteful posts.

GGMK3 Friday March 6th 11.00am. Jog your memory?

It does, Eglantine21. As I think I explained at the time that was the morning of my mother's funeral. Is there something else you feel I should be aware of?

Eglantine21 Sun 08-Mar-20 10:33:20

Nasty and personal enough for GN to remove it......

Jog your memory?

Framilode Sun 08-Mar-20 10:33:22

I so agree with you Anniebach but I'm afraid that will be for future generations. I do find it frustrating that people can't see through the untruths that then became the authorised version of events.

Harry and Meghan release iTunes song!

I shan't be downloading it.

Why is this so important to you Eglantine? I have told you I was busy. Not long after 11 a.m., I joined my son and daughter at my daughters so we could go through the service. I received no email from GNHQ.

Anniebach Sun 08-Mar-20 10:43:47

Very few agree with me Framilode

Hi all,

Just a reminder that personal attacks are against our guidelines. We understand that users will have differing opinions, but please do refrain from personal comments, otherwise we will have to pull the thread.

GracesGranMK3 Sun 08-Mar-20 10:46:26

Does this include personal attacks, based on no real knowledge, against Megan and Harry Natasha? This thread is full, from start to finish of such nastyness.

ananimous Sun 08-Mar-20 10:47:35

@NatashaGransnet

You must recognise the same names time and again.
It is driving normal people away.

You are actually asking for censorship. Incredible.

quizqueen Sun 08-Mar-20 10:50:27

I hope this is the last month we have to hear anything about that dreadful Markle woman as she will then be a non-royal and of no interest. 'Look after the women in your life' .... didn't her dad try to look after her and look where that got him! The fact that she couldn't bear to bring Archie and let Harry's family see him one last time speaks volumes and Harry has become so weak now it has become quite pathetic to see. It's like so many scenarios played out here on gransnet, the queen could be writing in herself. Roll on 20 years or so and I wonder if Archie will decide to reclaim his birth right and she will get her just rewards.
