So far, 2022 is not a good year to be an entitled white man!

You can add Prince Harry to your list. He wants the police to provide body guards for his/their next visit to the UK. Admittedly he said he will pay, but why not just hire a security firm rather than ask the police?

What a shame

Given that posh, white men are right at the top of the social hierarchy and hold the most power and wealth, I the no it's time they were held to account.

*it's time!

Allsorts

What an unpleasant post, if someone had sAid black there would be uproar and racist.

Hardly! A stereotype of an entitled black man doesn't spring readily to mind, does it? 😀

I agree, GillT57. There seems to have been a rash of entitled pillocks getting their comeuppance lately, and it's no bad thing.

Those are my sentiments exactly.

Is Andy Murray an entitled white man ?

I wouldn’t say Djokovic is particularly posh - OK he’s wealthy but I think the Australian authorities proved that he may be entitled, but he’s not particularly powerful - if he was he’d have got what he wanted.

No, he's not.

He's somebody who got where he is through hard work and probably remembers what it was like to hide under a desk in a Dunblane primary school.

He does, however, own a very posh hotel.

You express sympathy for someone who has suffered a horrific
trauma, I am surprised

Sympathy? I see no sympathy....

Admiration. That's what I'd call it.

Wow! This thread has taken an unpleasant turn.

Funny isn’t it, if a man is born into a poor family it’s not his fault if he is born to a well off family he is fair game. I’m not a fan of any of the named individuals but the circumstances of their birth were beyond their control.

Wow! This thread has taken an unpleasant turn.

Why does race have to be dragged into everything.

Anniebach, as far as I am aware Andy Murray has had a good year so far, have you missed the point perhaps? The 3 examples I gave in the OP have found that not following the accepted rules and behaviour that society in general does has not worked out very well for them.
