Waldo   96 #457 Posted January 20, 2020 I wonder if Car Boot was a royal, would he be so keen to give up the title, influence, power and redistribute his wealth to those less fortunate?  What do you say Car Boot? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Their progressive lifestyles will cost us dear. What is a 'progressive lifestyle'? Did you just make that up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

A progressive lifestyle, according to the very wealthy, is living as a concerned global celebrity.  It's a full time occupation.  It involves lecturing those who are not Royal, who do not have the good royal blood, about the environment and climate change while those with a progressive lifestyle use private jets as often as possible.  It involves spending £32 million on a single wedding while lecturing those with non-royal bad blood about the poor. It involves living in a 28 bedroom mansion and referring to it as a 'cottage'.  Basically, being progressive means having an enormous sense of entitlement coupled with no self awareness.  Harry and Meghan are truly progressive.

francypants   441 #465 Posted January 20, 2020 Nothing to do with racism. They just wanted to have their cake and eat it. Well apparently it hasn't turned out quite how they wanted it.    I do think our Queen has mostly done a good job and devoted all of her adult life to her job, but as for Harry and Meghan .......... bye bye.

alchresearch   215 #466 Posted January 20, 2020 Amusing to see Rebecca Wrong Daily jump on the "press is racist" bandwagon, and conveniently forgetting the negative stories about Prince Edward, Fergie and Camilla over the years.  To make matters worse she added her two-pennorth that every criticism against Dianne Abbot is also racism.
