Duchess (sic) of Sussex has lost the first round of her battle with The Mail in the high court.
The first battle.
Will she lose the war in your opinion?

11.43. Perfect photo opportunity for the royals. Are they not just fabulous and sooooo kind ?

[Theland]

Whether intentional or not, her comments and actions were an attempt to so!it the Royal Family.
What she ignored, was the fact that there remains the unspoken loyalty to our Queen.
The establishment, call them what you like, are eventually faced with a choice, Meghan and Harry, or the Queen. As I said earlier, a raised eyebrow is enough to galvanise loyalists into, to begin with, giving M & H the cold shoulder, and there are many more weapons in the armoury.

Couldn't agree more Theland at 11.49 - and I'm not even much of a royalist, just regard them as necessary to our country. Meghan doesn't realise that she has tackled all of us.

[anneasquith]

She’s not tackled me .

[Zacs-Master]

I think you'll find they're both dead, In me.

[sp1814]

Some interesting thoughts.

//Meghan doesn't realise that she has tackled all of us.//

Define "us".

[Theland]

Jourdain. Well put .

[jourdain2]

The UK, the crown symbolised the nation.

[jourdain2]

symbolises ^^^^

[Theland]

Mozz, '' us,'' the ones who bought the tea towels and mugs :-)

[Theland]

Jourdain, well put .... again !

[Mozz71]

//The UK, the crown symbolised the nation.//

So, as I'm not a royalist, does that mean I'm not considered part pf the nation?

SP, //When magazines put a picture of Diana on their covers, they would similarly see a spike in sales.//

But the same thing happens with all new royal brides. Meghan isn’t unique in that. Harry was probably the most popular of the royals when he and Meghan announced their plans to marry - and the public were delighted - but dismay at what followed wasn’t far behind especially with regard to their disregard for the queen and for protocol - and their apparent disdain for the public. Diana garnered sympathy because her marriage was a farce from the beginning and unlike Meghan she really was a victim. Meghan will never be Diana. Not even a close runner up. She has chosen her path - and his.

@11.55.No they re not.Just living on a higher plane of consciousness.Anyway,Myfanwy flounces off.Over and out.

[Theland]

Poor little Archie, missing out on so much :-(

[Theland]

I'm off for another sleep.
Keep the thread on a low simmer, and stir occasionally.
Add spice as according to taste :-)
