Meghan’s M&S Jumper

Mapleleaf If you consider I don't understand how some people can claim to dislike someone who they know only through carefully edited press and TV appearances vitriolic you either don't understand the word or have led a very cloistered life
vitriol -^bitter criticism or malice.^
The hero worship of the RF reminds me in many ways of the way teenagers idolise a celebrity. Watching their every move, copying their clothes, fantasising about their love life. I'm not condemning it. If that's what you need to get you through a day that's fine. But I really don't understand why you feel the need to attack people who don't share your obsession and ask questions about it.

No I'm not stirring the pot, I just wish that some people would be clearer.

I doubt it.
Maybe we all hope to see a healthy baby born to a very happy couple.
I think to ask the question that has already been asked several times but not answered, you are stirring the pot.
Many people will no doubt wonder and I include myself in that number but more than that...lol ??

BTW...I am NOT the person (alluded to by another poster) who was shouty vitriolic and rude.

I agree Maple.

Camelotclub , why can't you wait to see their first baby, what are you hoping to see - if they choose to have one, that is? Would you like to enlighten us?

Equally, I don't understand how some people can claim to dislike someone who they know only through carefully edited press and TV appearances, Trisher.
I'm saddened by the amount of vitriol that is appearing by some posters on this thread. Would they say these things to the people if they were face to face with them, I wonder. Probably not.

I haven’t noticed anything she has been wearing! Maybe because i’m not a royal watcher. I do like Harry and Meghan what a beautiful couple. I wish them well.

I think Ramblingrose22 and nigglynellie wanted you to say the unstable. Gloves off.

No, not people's names, however, even on THIS (stressed) site I find that people are castigated for holding strong or opposing views. I'm not at all pc but nowadays one can't always tell the truth or air an honest opinion without being pulled up, therefore, it means having to temper your view so as not to ruffle feathers. As for myself, I'd rather have people say it as it is and I respect their right to do so.

Trisher

I agree.

Not usually people's names though?! Surely rather rude?!!

I often capitalise words that I cannot put in bold, in order to show that the word has more stress, ie: are YOU going or is it up to ME?
I certainly don't mean it as shouting nor do I assume that others are shouting. I type on my smartphone and there is no capacity to do 'bold'.

Respectfully, sorry for the typo.

I respect everone's views in the main, some of my friends do not agree with the monachy but put the argument over with respect.

On this forum, mainly one poster to be fair, the comments are vitriolic, spiteful, personnel, and very hateful. I would say to this poster you are entitled to your opinions but put them respectively and stop using shouty text.

If I was to describe those supporting the RF as "crawlers" they would probably be very upset, but they seem to think being personally abusive to someone because they don't like the concept of monarchy is OK.
And there aren't GN Guidelines about capitals but there are about personal abuse.
It's surprising how many people are unable to seperate the person and the role. To disapprove of someone because they are part of what you regard as an out dated institution is nothing to do with liking or not liking them as a person. I really don't understand how people can claim to like someone who they know only through carefully edited press and TV appearances.

I'm indifferent to the royal family. I have no interest, and I'm glad that's all I feel about about them. I wouldn't like to think I would dislike people due to their birth circumstances, whatever they were.

Sad to be so spiteful, paddyann, and the use of capital letters is becoming increasingly tiresome. Appearing in other posts too.

As I have said before, none of us get to choose who we are or what circumstances we are born into. If they all abdicated tomorrow it would make no difference to our own lives, however there would be a lot of employees out of work, less tourists in London etc etc ,& guess what your life & mine would be no different than it already is & we wouldn't have any more or less than what we already do .At least they are more cheerful to look at than Presidents, politicians etc & they at least try to do some good in the world. !!!

I’m not particularly pro RF but I really can’t see why a few people on here need to be so nasty about them. And aren’t there GN guidelines about shouty capitals?
Hear hear Maw.

So if the 'royals' are to be in frugal mode , highly unlikely, then maybe this is what we are observing with a coat recently seen to be worn by the Duchess of Cambridge now in her third pregnancy ?

I do not like her being reffered to as his sqeeze either. She is lovely and stylish.
I knowsome people here do not like the monachy, but to say work is a concept they do not understand is rubbish, they are like the whole of the world of work, some work harder than others.
When it comes to the monarchy some posters on here are bloody nasty.

I think Megan is charismatic she always looks lovely whether casual or dressed up she sparkles like Diana did. I prefer Megan and Harry to Kate and William and think they will be more popular. As for rushing out and buying a jumper from M and S because she has one I don't think so.

Why not? There are worse things to look at than a baby.
