Uh Uh Harry ?

Summerlove Talking about how RF is funded from tax payer making the point that some other people may be equally rich live in luxury but they are not funded from tax payer so not relevant to us, to the argument of RF.

I think annepl made sense and RF continue their lives not wanting to change how much they are given nor seem to care

For those who are aghast at the rules on housing in the new Cornwall development, my Labour council impose equally as restrictive regulations on my home in a "conservation area". They want to call the tune but are vehemently against paying the piper, and totally ban solar panels, not keen on double glazing etc but put speed humps, cycle and bus lanes on every available road. When you can't even replace your front fence or gate ( even if identical to the original) without planning permission it's gone too far!
As for Meg and Harry, they'll do whatever turns a brass farthing as my grandad used to say

Ellianne

mokryna have you any idea of the value of the wine stashed in the caves of the Elysée Palace!!
I went to dinner there once, mon Dieu!! hic hic

Oh, so it was you who drank away my tax money, while I was drinking water at my miserable abode.

I hate the fact that so many people are in need in this country and that one family is kept in such luxury by the taxpayer, never wanting or needing anything for their physical comfort, never having to wait for medical attention. Eating the best food from places like F&M while some struggle to buy from the cheapest food shops. Yes, other people live like this, but we don't fund them. It doesn't matter what happens in other countries. That is not relevant And this family knows the struggles that the ordinary people have. It is morally wrong. And it is within their power to change it.

In today’s global word everything happening anywhere affects the world world.

We are not at all unconnected

A debate isn’t possible with someone who thinks they know it all, pity because annepl wanted a debate as I do.

trisher However you try to dress it up, that remark was addressed to those on this platform whose views do not coincide with yours. I agree that some people will watch it, but to say “you will all watch it” is a sweeping statement unworthy of someone familiar with debating. There is really nothing more to say.

there will always be the haves and the have nots
Ellianne true but not relevant to my post.

Grany thanks. For me the issue is simple.

Meg has said she has no intention of returning to acting, how
can she return, she hasn’t stopped

Americans certainly will, not so sure about here though. Maybe Europe, though I'm not sure that they're that
interested! As for the rest of the world? Who knows! It'll make money for sure which should please PH and MM!

Oh come on Lexisgranny anything linked with the RF, scandal or any other factor in their lives is the subject of all sorts of media productions and people lap them up. If they didn't no one would bother making them.

It doesn't matter what happens in other countries. That is not relevant.
Maybe not, but comparisons serve to illlustrate thst even without a RF and even after an "off with their heads revolution", there will always be the haves and the have nots.

Sweeping statements such as that trisher certainly weaken your argument.

I certainly won't be! We haven't got Netflix for a start, but I wouldn't anyway. Tacky American rubbish isn't for me and certainly not for Mr J!

Not me!!

Ah but you will all watch it!

Well Said annepl

Jaber how awful, and Harry signed up with Netflix, hypocrite .

Apparently Netflix will premiere Diana the musical prior to it opening on Broadway on May 25th 2021. It is said, among other things, to show the late Princess in bed with James Hewitt!! Nice one Harry!!

This is a long report but so interesting. www.republic.org.uk/sites/default/files/Royal-Expenses-Report-2017_0.pdf
One of the factors discussed is how a Head of State could at times of national crisis have spoken out, inspiring and supporting national interests. It is I think especially interesting now when a Head of State speaking out might have provided a voice of support and encouragement which could have helped prevent the spread of Covid.

Good grief Jabber there is going to be a musical about Diana ?

News Thump

The collapse of income from her £400 million property portfolio has left the monarch so cash-strapped she is reduced to eating cold swan for lunch and using her racehorses to pull her carriage, according to royal correspondents this morning.

Beatrice Despenser-Westerly, royal correspondent for the Telegraph, explained that she was fearful for the financial well being of a woman who gets £80 million a year to wave at awestruck simpletons.

She went on, “Her Majesty has always been a trooper and you won’t hear her complain, but those of us who know her because our family tree is also a bamboo can see just how dire things are.

“Her valets tell us how they have had to buy lesser grades of beef fillet for her 45 dogs, and she is only using the two Rolls-Royce’s with the modern, more efficient engines.

I myself was in Sandringham last week to talk about some lovely afternoons killing animals for fun and I could see the dust that had built up on the dozens of Old Master paintings she owns and with which she could fund a small town council for a decade if she sold one of them. I do hope the government will help out.”

Ms Despenser-Westerly’s belief that the government should help had great support among ordinary fans of the monarchy.

In Hastings a, retired joiner with eyes oddly close together, Simon Williams, said it was a crying shame the Queen might have to stop giving palaces to her grandchildren this year.

“My children are going to lose their jobs and public services around here have collapsed, but I’m adamant that a woman who wouldn’t piss on me if I was on fire is not forced to make any concession whatsoever in her obscenely expensive lifestyle.

“I knows my place.”

Grany I should have said your links are a variation of the facts. The facts can be checked.

Surely anyone who use their dead mother to make money has to be some sort of creep? Still more so if the outfit that is generating this money is about to launch a musical depicting this 'beloved' mother in a less than flattering way, but there you go Diana will be a money spinner so I suppose Harry feels he might as well cash in! Too bad if his brother is hurt, who cares about that so long as the millions of dollars keep coming!
