No words - surely I’m not unreasonable? Enough already! There’s bigger things in the world going on!

You do care though. Posting this proves it.

notkeen111 · 10/01/2020 19:09

YANBU. Me too. Finally someone has said it. Cannot believe the media frenzy etc.

Yes, bigger things going on.

Genuinely had no idea that the UK was this obsessed with the Windsors and their goings on.

A slimmed down monarchy in lieu of a president yes, IMO. This farce, no.

StillWeRise · 10/01/2020 19:11

who?

sunshinesupermum · 10/01/2020 19:13

Why post (yet another) thread on the subject? Enough already.

user764329056 · 10/01/2020 19:14

Same here, just let them do what they want, it doesn’t affect me, don’t understand why people so worked up above it

user764329056 · 10/01/2020 19:15

,.... so worked up about it, is what I meant to say

Butterymuffin · 10/01/2020 19:16

Well done for starting another thread about them then Confused

Fruitbatdancer · 10/01/2020 19:18

I hate myself for it if that helps! Grin
This is the anti thread!

When I don't care about something I start a thread about it. So I can tell people how much I don't care.

CatToddlerUprising · 10/01/2020 19:20

Like the latest terrorist attack yesterday in Cambridgeshire

TwilightPeace · 10/01/2020 19:28

It seems to be a big media distraction from all the scary shit going on in the world.

The Royal Family needs to be done away with anyway....

Fruitbatdancer · 10/01/2020 19:29

@CatToddlerUprising I was Not aware of that... off to google...

The media have whipped up a frenzy which has brought out the dregs and trolls
But looks like there may be a breakthrough at Stormont
Did the Iranians down that plane
Why is Trump so quiet
And first and foremost the bloody Brexit bill was passed last night so now the negotiations start and hopefully there won't be long queues of lorries at the borders but what about N.i.

NoBlueXmasLightsAllowed · 10/01/2020 19:33

What annoys me more is when people use memes the wrong way like @worra above misses point

notkeen111 · 10/01/2020 19:42

And first and foremost the bloody Brexit bill was passed

Aren’t we doing great all in all Sad.

NotJustACigar · 10/01/2020 19:47

It's completely bizarre the way the media going on and on about what is basically some hyped up celebrity gossip. Reading about this stuff is supposed to be a guilty pleasure, not something that legitimately consumes the attention of all the papers for days on end when there is actual highly important stuff going on. It just seems like no one can face real news anymore as it's just so relentless - even the journalists who write the headlines have needed a break from Brexit, Trump, Iran, the NHS, etc.

TigerOnATrain · 10/01/2020 19:50

@Fruitbatdancer

AND .... yet you care enough to start a thread about them.......

Pathetic.

EuphorbiaHemlockthe1st · 10/01/2020 19:50

It's a thread about the media frenzy and the millions of crazed posters on MN frothing and seething. Not a thread about .............. anything else.

Forcryingoutloudwtf · 10/01/2020 19:55

Why are you starting another thread about them then?

JosefKeller · 10/01/2020 19:57

you do realise if people were not that obsessed with them you wouldn't hear from them anymore? It's people like you who keep them in the news.

BananaTaffy · 10/01/2020 19:59

I dont give a fuck about the monarchy in general, but I care insofar as this is another example of how certain toxic, tabloids have a worrying degree of influence on UK society.

Scbchl · 10/01/2020 20:01

I genuinely couldnt care less. It wont affect my life in anyway. Ridiculous how wound up people are getting especially Piers Morgan, I unfollowed him on instagram because I'm sick of his posts about it.

PortiaCastis · 10/01/2020 20:07

Whip em up watch em froth, this is the gutter press mantra.
