AIBU to think she does not know the meaning of the word?

my heart bleeds!

silly woman!

I'm far more concerned about her feelings towards Gove, just shows her frail grasp on reality!!

Seriously? What an idiot.

Isshe called Princess Pushy, Orlando? Either way, YADDNBU, grabby old bag.

Diddums, shall we pass round the hat and make a Christmas collection for her?

I'm happy to start the ball rolling, with a half-chewed moldy old sweet in its wrapper from my duffle-coat pocket and a broken button or two

Aw bless, shall we have a wip round?

It's all very Ab Fab.

Oh dear, bet her diamond shoes are too tight as well

Yes I'm sure she is on par with those who have to choose between heat or a meal. Or if a child needs shoes it can send the household budget tits up.

She has always been a bit of a loon, IMO.

Ha ha.

Clearly she wouldn't consider a trip to nandos 'eating out'. I bet she could manage to do that whenever she liked once a month or so, if she budgeted carefully. This is my favourite bit: "We invite people here [Kensington Palace]. I cook. Well, if I’m giving a dinner party I get in help."

Arf.

There's nothing like showing how precarious your grasp on reality is, is there?

She's actually branching out into comedy and this is a sketch routine she's testing out.

I hope.

i think the queen used to pay their rent for them but now they have to, so i guess there might have needed to be a bit of belt-tightening

Bless her heart :o

Poor Princess Michael of Kent

I look forward to seeing the appeal advert for the 'Princess Michael of Kent Charity' showing a misty black & white montage of her sad-face watching people cook in her palace and squeezing into her economy class airline seat to Biarritz. Maybe looking longingly at the 12-course tasting menu for Le Gavroche and laying it sadly aside...

'If you don't help Princess Michael of Kent... Who will?'

Boo fucking hoo!!

yeah right!

If we had a Republic you and I wouldn't be paying to keep poor, pitiful Princesses in this sub standard life.

We could spend the money on things like schools and hospitals.

Amen to that, SuperScrimper.

This is the same woman who claimed in the 80's "I don't know how anyone survives on less than 50k a year". Nor do I dear, nor do I.

But HAVE any of you ever taken out the insides of a stag?

silly stupid crap bag of a woman.

and she admires the equally twattish Gove so almost certifiable.

bubble of course, I always gutting stags. also I can see better than nanny! WTAF

sew not see!!!
