This is according to the DM. Over the withdrawal of his security funding. Shock

I too do not believe the DM. They cause more trouble than they are worth.

@nottodaybatman

Interesting, I wonder if the RF has given up on the commonwealth. The angle they are playing with the press does not hit the same way outside of the UK.

This looks racist and underhand.
And again the timing. Someone from the Sandringham summit leaked this information and presumably blessed this story going live now when Andrew is in rhe news. Interesting priorities from the Royal sources. And interesting that they chose the Mail as their mouthpiece....

Well, that's your opinion but there's many people all over the world who dislike they way he's behaved. Look at the comments section on any article about him, you'll see all sorts of countries and most of them aren't supporting him.

@justasking111 football clubs make a contribution to the policing of games because large gatherings pose big security risks. They don’t have a direct say in how those games are policed.

Salman Rushdie did not pay for his own police protection.

Why do some people treat the queen like she is some messiah?!

BeMoreGoldfish · 15/01/2022 23:55

This is all wonderful news for us republicans. Maybe, just maybe, people will start to see this whole pantomime of a family for what they are.

It would be so good to see the end of the forelock tugging in my lifetime Smile.

user528849290 · 15/01/2022 23:55

Good job creating another sensationalist thread @Viviennemary doing the job for DM eh?

nottodaybatman · 15/01/2022 23:55

The decision for the Sussex to leave was leaked to the Mail, as was their location and then the fact that their security was being rescinded.

Presumably like any parent and husband back at the Sandringham summit when Harry offered to pay to access Intel he intended to use the money left to him by his mother.

All those leaks in 2020 from the courtiers put his family in danger and removed the opportunity to agree a sensible coordination with the police in the UK

So again the RF leaked his location, the decision to leave and took his security simultaneously in 2020 and now 2 years later they release the same story to distract from Andrew.

Racism?? There's no racism, they got married with a lot of good will globally, their behaviour has changed that nothing else.

BashStreetKid · 15/01/2022 23:56

If he's in danger in the UK, surely he's entitled to police protection anyway, just as any of us would be if we were known to be in danger?

BarrowInFurnessRailwayStation · 15/01/2022 23:56

Can't he just stay in the US if it's safer? He has no reason to be over here anyway.

Not a Messiah, we have respect for an elderly lady who has worked without complaint for 70 years or more.

Elite private security services liaise with the UK police service - that’ll be business as usual otherwise credible threats may be missed.

Still no reason for Harry to directly hire UK police personnel.

Bearing in mind this is a DM report, I see this item as a red herring.

That said, Harry’s name is putrid mud in the rank & file ofthe UK armed forces - he may be a veteran, but he was a toy soldier & ungrateful with it - & many of the elite private security firms are ex UK services, so it may be that there is no rush to bid for his business. Hence the request to being his US security team over which was declined.

With the Royal Jubilee imminent, maybe he’s looking for someone somewhere to provide security so that he can turn up for the jollies.

Harry, always read the small print & listen to what the men in grey when they say to you if you leave like this, then you are left.

@amusedtodeath1 you don’t know what you’re talking about but then again racism deniers rarely do.

The reason this has come up now is that Harry's team has asked for a judicial review, according to the BBC. It has just been filed. (On a Saturday? DO they do that?)

Anyway. The police aren't available for public hire. They should share any credible information they have with Harry's security team. (And if they don't do that then that's unacceptable.) I do find it hard to believe that the police can provide better security than a private firm, however.

What was Megan’s behavior to warrant the abuse from the UK tabloids when she was pregnant with Archie?. What did Harry and Megan do to deserve Neo Nazis to target them?. Some people on here can be so transparent

ForTheLoversOutThere · 16/01/2022 00:01

He wants to pay for his own security team but they arent letting him
Thats what he is fighting

GrouchyKiwi · 16/01/2022 00:01

A more credible source, perhaps: www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-60012238

Hertsgirl10 · 16/01/2022 00:02

When ever anything about uncle nonce Andrew cones out in the media, almost like clockwork there’s a Harry & Meghan story in the media.

Such a weird coincidence isn’t it 😜

Almost like it’s on purpose.

user528849290 · 16/01/2022 00:02

@Flickflak

Massive comprehension fail from the OP but putting that to one side for a moment, imagine quoting the DM as a source?!
Exactly and @Viviennemary didn’t bother contacting @MNHQ to correct their misinformation.
nottodaybatman · 16/01/2022 00:02

In your opinion

In my opinion there is massive ongoing racism towards them.

And the commonwealth is mostly not white. Despite what the mail prints, the optics do not look good outside the UK for the RF. This story and its timing makes the RF look trashy, petty and racist

GreenLunchBox · 16/01/2022 00:02

I bet Harry's secretly glad. Now he's got a reason not to come back to Racist Island for the jubilee

ODFOD,. I know racism when I see it and this ain't it. Do not use racism to push your republican agenda, it's disgusting quite frankly.

A source other than the Daily Fail for a bit of balance.

He wants to pay for Uk security while in the UK which sounds perfectly reasonable. Nobody can argue he and his family are not going to be big targets for the rest of their lives. He is arguing about jurisdiction and also access to Intelligence regarding threats to his family.

I know hating him seems to be a national sport but he is entitled to want the best security for his family. He is entitled to not have paparazzi chasing him especially given how his mother died.
