I notice there's nothing about this as yet. I guess ABers only really care about negative stories about Harry and Meghan.

They've paid back their debt to the taxpayer. Good. It's the right thing to do, although it won't stop the whiners whining about them as I'm sure they're well aware. Now, which of the other royals will be next to cough up I wonder.

//That doesn’t appear to be the case//

Of course, you would be an expert when it comes to what I believe in. Get a grip woman. I've long defended anyone I've seen being victimised online, even you if the need arose, although I'd imagine you're well capable of fending for yourself. On here, I've been known to defend folk such as Theland, even though I completely disagree with his beliefs (and will also go against him if he is being unreasonable too).


//I can’t imagine anyone would agree with the way in which Harry and Meghan have treated the queen and the royal family, for example, in, among other things, announcing their planned departure through social media. Their lack of respect was breathtaking//

I said at the time that they showed a lack of class with how their leaving the monarchy was dealt with, although as I said previously, the royal family isn't a frequent focus of my attention.

//and yet not a word of criticism from you for any of it.//

Do you remember my posts from when they broke away from the royals? Why would you? I don't remember the details either.


Mozz, //Of course, you would be an expert when it comes to what I believe in. //

You're imagining things again. I've claimed nothing of the sort. I just respond to your posts.

You also seem to be at a loss when it comes to identifying sarcasm.
Mozz, no point in being angry with anyone for not seeing this news as being as important as you clearly think it is.
Firstly, good for them for paying back the debt to the taxpayer. And secondly for getting out of being subsidised by Daddy.

Personally I think they will make a better go of their media aspirations that Edward did. Mainly because I think they have more money behind them and we live in different time. We live in a celebrity obsessed world that lauds and courts anyone with a perfect smile and influence ‘we’ don’t have. You can almost see Hollywood elites swooping like a flock of starlings to the latest ‘it’ person, project or cause.

For my two pence worth though they should steer clear of anything that could bring the royal family into conflict. They can be as woke as they like. They live in woke capital and will fit in just fine amongst their woke piers.

But as has been said don’t try to lecture from an ivory tower. Otherwise their hypocrisy will only lose them fans. And eventually that may ultimately be their downfall.

Thank you for your valuable input Andy. I'll be sure to roll over and give up in the face of discussion in future.
Mozz, your response entirely proves my point.

You're mistaking opinion for anger Andy. I'm fighting my corner, just as you, and many others do, on Answerbank. I don't see what else you expect me to do quite honestly.
Mozz - // You're mistaking opinion for anger Andy. //

When you are telling naomi to "... get a grip woman ... " I don't think I am.

// I'm fighting my corner, just as you, and many others do, on Answerbank. //

You are not though, you are getting snitty with people who disagree with you, simply because they disagree, not because of the points they are making.

//I don't see what else you expect me to do quite honestly. .. //

I don't 'expect' you to do anything.
Give up Mozz, he'll keep copying and pasting, or whatever it's called, until you get bored and walk away from the thread!! You can't win mate, honestly.

I assume you are referring to me?

I am making a valid point to Mozz which he can agree or disagree with - it is nothing to do with trying to make him walk away from the thread, or 'winning' as you seem to see it.

//When you are telling naomi to "... get a grip woman ... " I don't think I am.//

Exasperation rather than anger.

//You are not though, you are getting snitty with people who disagree with you, simply because they disagree, not because of the points they are making//

Not getting snitty whatsoever. Perhaps this attempt at a character assassination is because you disagree with me. Perhaps a look in the mirror is needed.

//I don't 'expect' you to do anything.//

No, but you're happy to sit there in judgement I suppose. We had a fairly civil exchange of opinions yesterday, and today you decide that I'm getting aggressive and need to be... I don't know.. admonished maybe?

I'm happy to continue the discussion on topic, but this seems to be another example of you derailing a thread.

Mozz, have a tea break and then you can continue refreshed.

Get a grip is not an anger statement, imo. It's something usually said with a frown on your face while shaking your head.

I think Andy is on the wind up.

Mozz - // //When you are telling naomi to "... get a grip woman ... " I don't think I am.//

It's still inappropriate in the context of what you claim to be a civilized discussion, whatever reason you offer for it.

// Question Author//When you are telling naomi to "... get a grip woman ... " I don't think I am.//

If you think calling you sniffy is 'character assassination' then you need to start toughening up if you want to debate in this section!

//I don't 'expect' you to do anything.//

// No, but you're happy to sit there in judgement I suppose. We had a fairly civil exchange of opinions yesterday, and today you decide that I'm getting aggressive and need to be... I don't know.. admonished maybe? //

I am not 'sitting in judgement', and I don't do 'admonishment' - you really are too think skinned to be attempting to exchange views with other people if this is how you see things.

// I'm happy to continue the discussion on topic, but this seems to be another example of you derailing a thread. //

Obviously I am not going to agree with you on that point - if you are exchanging with me on this side bar which is not part of the OP, then you are as guilty of derailing as I am.

Try not to take too much to heart the sour snipings of the small group of miserabilists who shout 'de-railment' every time they feel like it - they are best ignored.
ummmm - // Get a grip is not an anger statement, imo. It's something usually said with a frown on your face while shaking your head.

I don't do 'wind up' - and I think you know that.
There's more than one meaning to 'wind up'.

This thread like so many others has now reached ridiculous levels.
Mamya - // There's more than one meaning to 'wind up'. //

I don't do 'wind up' in any meaning of the words as I understand them - let's not get off-topic shall we?
