I have strong opinions on Bristol City and golf, and I don’t watch them either.

Genie Posted March 8, 2021 Author Share Posted March 8, 2021 One thing that struck me as odd, Harry talks extremely warmly about his gran, they talk often and have a good relationship, she’s been great through all of this etc. Then he’s saying the Palace pulled their security because of a change in their status. Then they cut him off financially (I assume that was his salary). If it wasn’t for the money his mom left him he would have been screwed. Why is the Queen letting these things happen to her grandson? Or does she have no clout at all anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KAZZAM Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Royal privilege the highest level of them all. Makes me sick hearing them moan and whine about minor dramas while rolling in their millions and living in a condo near the beach. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His “pay” wasn't from his Gran, it's the money from the Civil List (or whatever its called now), he quit public life so wasn't entitled to the money. It just shows an absolute lack of awareness of his circumstances. They didn't cut him off financially, he did that to himself 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being cut-off financially by the Royals is an untruth. He quit his job and just like you and me if we did that, he stopped getting paid. That money he was being paid, was our tax money not generated by the RF paid in tax by you and me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was genuinely very interesting, keeping in mind that this is only 1 side of the argument of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They announced they were “leaving public life” that is them quitting their jobs, the fact that they don't appear to understand that really is a problem of their own perception. I really don't need to watch the interview to know they are talking shite on that particular issue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it's the Queen who controls that, no-one else. You appear to be suggesting the head lizard is in fact a puppet, a puppet of some uber-powerful courtier. They also in Royal terms appeared to work out their contract. They fulfilled their obligations up to a particular date There is absolutely no evidence apart from H&M saying otherwise that this isn't the truth. The alternative hypothesis if you like, is rather fanciful at best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhatAboutTheFinish Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 The biggest thing in this interview was the insight into their sense of humour. I for one can't wait for Harry's Netflix stand up special. I mean "Archie's Chick Inn". CHICK INN! Geddit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
