Harry's latest ventures

Now being reported in the Daily Express that Harry is working on a new tell all documtary about royal life. This is according to his biographer Angela Levin. And even more disclosures about the royal family are forthcoming. Is this going to go on for years. We shall have to wait and sed. I think its very very wrong of him.

Sorry, smilesy, I see you'd already posted that link I used. I usually try to read the updates before posting but loused it up that time Blush

Since someone mentioned it, I also remember questions around whether the "Royal Foundation" money had been properly accounted for. I'd like to think it won't disappear into the usual black hole of RF money, but frankly am not confident

Roussette · 20/05/2021 11:43

Wonder if the RF is silently grateful to Harry and Meghan from taking Andrew permanently out of the news. H&M type stuff they can handle

Yes, even Andrew is glad of the diversion.

What Danny Baker said was outright racist. For arguments sake, he could have (distastefully) posted a picture of three clowns, three elephants, three acrobats, whatever. But he didn’t. It was racist and offensive and we all know the connotations.
Let’s not pretend.

sunnyblackwidow · 20/05/2021 11:52

I'm sure there are many people who had their reservations about Meghan because they are closet racists....however there are many who dislike her because of her actions and words.

I was delighted when Harry & Meghan got engaged, I thought she was a breath of fresh air and I was delighted to see him looking so happy.

My feelings for them both have completely changed now - their words and actions have caused that.

I dont know why somebody didnt say to Andrew what on earth are you doing keeping company with such a person. Even before it all was publicised. When they are so hot on wearing the right hat and other stuff. I agree they are glad the heat is off Andrew. He might as well be under house arrest going from the little we see of him. Well ground arrest at least in his case as he was seen out riding the other day.

Ewwww no thanks, I'd rather plant 1,000 cockroach eggs in my earhole than have anything to do with him

OK. Tiresome but I will rephrase. 'Yes, I imagine even Andrew is glad of the diversion'.

Does that suit you?!
😂

'Wonder if the RF is silently grateful to Harry and Meghan from taking Andrew permanently out of the news. H&M type stuff they can handle.'

Maybe they're as baffled as the rest of us at the FBIs complete inability to instruct their counterparts in the UK to question him. Perhaps it is because there isn't any evidence other than like many foolish people he was friends with Epstein.

Roussette · 20/05/2021 12:05

Doubtful.
He's protected hugely by the best lawyers and PR machine probably in the world, the Royal Family's. Oh, and the Queen of course.

I agree with you. The FBI’s incompetence - if there is any evidence - is breathtaking. Or maybe it’s not incompetence, just indifference.
smilesy · 20/05/2021 12:17

I think that maybe, personality wise, Harry and Andrew share an unfortunate tendency not to want to listen to or take advice, even from someone with their best interests at heart, if it is not what they want to hear, Vivienne

ajandjjmum · 20/05/2021 12:17

Andrew is a complete tosser - always has been - but hasn't actually been found guilty of anything yet. At least he's not continually drawing public attention to himself though, even on personal occasions such as his daughter's wedding.

@Roussette I agree. Why do you think H&M use their titles to cash in on the Royal Family when it is so corrupt, racist, outdated and built on the back of slavery? Harry isn’t a kid. He could have came to that conclusion on his own a long time ago. Handed in his titles. Left. Had a low key wedding in his garden and raised his family anywhere he fancied in the world where his kids would be out of the glare.
SueSaid · 20/05/2021 12:21

Yes and it doesn't matter who has the best lawyers in the world if they have evidence they should be pursuing it now. Those that say oh we'll see what ghislaine spills are missing the point, if he is a witness or a suspect then that info should be handed over to uk forces for investigation now not when they cba. If its all unsubstantiated claims then it is no wonder nothing is happening judicially at the moment.

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 20/05/2021 12:28

Aye. I completely agree.

ShamedBySiri · 20/05/2021 12:51

Totally agree mermaidsariel

Why is the USA so much better than the racist UK? Many people praise the UK for its equality laws and racial harmony and seek citizenship here because it is a safe, peaceful place to live. If a POC is stopped and searched in the UK there is a very reasonable expectation that the experience will not be excessively frightening or violent and they will not end up dead. In the USA????
A friend (white) was stopped for speeding in the USA and said it was the most terrifying experience of his life. I've been stopped by the police for speeding and one or two other traffics misdemeanours over the years and never felt so much as a frisson of fear.

We have (mostly) unarmed police here. And strict gun laws. Whatever one's colour I know which country I consider the safer.

HeadNorth · 20/05/2021 13:12

I don't know why posters are getting their knickers in a knot over the lack of financial transparency of the Archewell foundation. It complies with US law and indeed is bathed in bright sunlight compared to the queen's machinations to evade complying with UK law & hide her finances pretty tawdry stuff, eh?

Puzzledandpissedoff · 20/05/2021 13:12

I love that ... in fact I love it so much I might pinch it Grin

On the FBI thing, I've no doubt they have their share of incompetents like every other organisation, but let's give them a break for once. Even if they turned up with an arrest warrant, a battering ram and a blank cheque from a paedophile, does anyone imagine for an instant they'd be allowed access to Andrew?

I'd hope most of us know perfectly well that he's "never been convicted of anything", but it's the fact he'll never be subject to due process which enrages some of us ... and yes, just for once I feel confident in writing "fact" about something I admittedly can't prove

SueSaid · 20/05/2021 13:16

'Even if they turned up with an arrest warrant, a battering ram and a blank cheque from a paedophile, does anyone imagine for an instant they'd be allowed access to Andrew?'

Yes I'm sure they would be allowed access however as a poster on another thread pointed out the fbi can't do that anyway. What they can do is instruct uk forces to investigate if they have evidence.

Some of you seem to think thr rf are above the law and control the fbi. They don't.

This. There seem to be some very unrealistic ideas about the royal family’s immunity to the law.

If you’re suggesting that Prince Andrew’s lawyers are obstructing the FBI’s investigation, or not making their client available, they have made it clear that that is not the case. And the Royal family have demonstrated by their past actions they they don’t stand in the way of due process - Princess Anne and her dog, and Prince Philip and his driving being recent examples.

(I actually think that Prince Andrew is a useful smokescreen for all the other men caught up in the Epstein affairs - the Donald Trumps, Bill Clintons and Bill Gates, for example. A minor royal conveniently bearing the brunt of the public ire suits them down to the ground, I have no doubt, and shows where the real power and influence lies).

I think some people thought that they set up Archewell out of the goodness of their heart.

I don't think anyone's ever said they control the FBI - though they can certainly control law enforement's access - but with "the law" it's not so much about the public believing them to be above it as them appearing to believe it

Countless examples have been offered on these threads over time and many more have leaked out when someone's loyalty's been exhausted, the RF have taken their eyes off the ball or both, so really it's just a matter of staying informed (though usual caveats about souces apply)

bluebell34567 · 20/05/2021 14:01

am still on page 25.

was just thinking. so they use their titles and then they use needy people as well to get money. thats double cheat. what actual work do they do then? i dont see any morals here.

as for needy; they already suffer hugely and then on top of it they are being used by such people. it is explotation of these people.
