To think publishing the video of King Charles getting annoyed when signing a visitors book today is very unkind?

[PipinwasAuntieMabelsdog]

He has lost both parents in a short time frame, had a disagreement with his own son and taken on a very stressful job at the height of grief. AIBU to think this should not have been made public? Most people would lose their temper at a time like that in their own lives. Why publish this?

He's not being a jerk he's just a bit pissed off with a pen

Maybe he shouldn't have got so annoyed?

I think giving him a leaky pen to sign a document of historic importance was enough to make anybody annoyed.

MNetters pride themselves on being sweary and direct.

Princess Anne is loved due to her down to earth cantankerousness. And swearing.

Really, after what he’s gone through this week - under the spotlight, is it really so unexpected when something goes wrong.

Why? Why shouldn't he get a bit miffed at a leaky pen? Lots of people do.

Surely it's some from column A and some from column B? He's a typical spoilt, petulant man-child who's barely heard the word 'No'... who's also getting quite old, very tired, and extremely stressed following his mother's death. A perfect storm of trying circumstance and trying personality.

wicked new king Charlie' show's his dark side by taking his frustration out on an innocent pen

King Charles who has had 2 Hours sleep, since his beloved mother passed away, and flown all over the country in tense diplomatic situations, whilst holding respectful vigil's for his late mother, marred by hecklers calling out his disgraced brother today let his wrath go ....at his own personal unfortunate pen.

The society of representatives of fountain pens has been contacted..

He chose the pen, it is his special pen.

I love this 😂

IT IS REALLY PISSING ME OFF THAT PEOPLE KEEP BLAMING THE PLEBS FOR GIVING HIM THAT PEN, WHEN HE USES A SPECIAL PEN HE CHOSE HIMSELF

Pissed off with the pen, or pissed of with the person who gave the pen to you? A pen can turn leaky at any time - it's nobody's fault, it's just a pen going leaky.

I can imagine the Queen could get quite easily pissed 'orf at times too. The royals are bound to have a bit of entitlement about them, seeing as being entitled is their very purpose in life. They're all a bit blunt and snappy I reckon.

Agree.

Needs a biro

Parasitic...

What's your Idea of a perfect childhood?
Do you have children?

It's just I wonder how spoilt this man is ?
When I think of the word spoiled. I usually think of bad things.

In his case sent to a school he hated?. badly beaten up? Begged to go home?

Ok ok he's pissed of at the pen! He is probably reconsidering who gets the royal warrant for pens.

thought this was referencing him shooing the inkwells out of the way and gritting his teeth at staff and acting like a brat the other day, but no, it's another incident.
Do people really think this behaviour is a one off because his mother has died? I really doubt it, he's just led a life of entitlement

That leaked. I mean we all laugh a happily at a leaked pen and never, ever get frustrated by a leaky pen ruining documents and getting on out fingers. Pluses the frustration of potentially having signed significant documents with the wrong date.

This. This sounds much politer than I might have been.

I am seriously unimpressed with the consultation on jobs though.

I'm very sorry to hear about your father & grandfather.

however, unless you had a camera shoved in your face for 6 days and took
over the position of 'King/Queen' & travelled miles & miles, sat through countless services & meetings and shook hands with thousands of people, and are mid 70's,you can't really compare the two.

Wasn't the pen a gift from William and Harry? Maybe Meghan sabotaged it haha.

All of the Royals of that generation seem a bit grumpy, even Anne, no idea about Edward but Andrew and Charles certain are pompous.

I think what he did was human, and that's fine because he is human. I would have sworn! But that's why I don't want a monarchy or if it is retained, then it to be very discreet and hardly present at all, it's ridiculous to expect a human to be almost godly and then very disappointed if they turn out to be ordinary like everyone else.

I am sure the Daily Heil will find some way to blame MM for the pen issues

It’s just who he is isn’t it? I don’t think it’s to do with grief, just a man who is used to everyone smoothing his way wherever he goes. He is petulant and lacks the sense to hide it.

The redundancy notice is beyond belief. Whoever thought that was appropriate should be the one losing their job! Terrible optics. I get that it is necessary, but it could have waited until after the funeral. I think it’s something the media would have jumped on eventually in terms of the Royals wasting money if staffing changes weren’t made, but the timing is truly appalling. We are still in the official mourning period, it is really disrespectful.

It will go to Bic and there will be outrage

Just watched. I was hoping for something even slightly dramatic given the comments on here.
Storm in a teacup springs to mind.
