More Of Meghan’s Archwell podcasts…

Just to continue the discussion

The podcasts and associated interview have certainly proved informative and entertaining, but possibly not in the way originally intended.

It will be interesting to see how MM interacts with someone as smart, quick-witted and funny as Mindy Kaling.

As someone above posted she has the self awareness of the character Michael Scott from the Office so it could be fun, but edited out probably

Well for future podcasts ,I just hope she stays away from comparing their lives to the struggles of Civil rights activists, it’s really not the same.

Just to lighten the thread here are a couple of trees growing from one base that I saw on my walk today. I saw lots like it actually but didn't bother to take photos of them all. I suppose that is in no way as meaningful as a pair of feature palm trees outside one's house. Must be why I have never looked at a pair of trees like this and thought "how romantic, true love, joined at the hip". Conjoined twins maybe?

Not to me he doesn't, but we are all entitled to our opinions

I genuinely think William is fab.

The posters who repeatedly post whataboutery relating to PA to deflect from criticism of MM do it because they cannot defend MM.
It’s obvious to everyone and it’s pathetic, and dull. If you genuinely support her (or do it on a professional basis) then surely you can do better than whataboutery. Stand by her words and actions and defend them.

On a professional basis ??

Paranoid much ?

Excellent comment. It's dead cat city on here.

Agree I despise PA and have said on other threads.
Like many I thought MM was a breath of fresh air and could really add some to the RF but she has for me been a disappointment. She could have used her platform for so much good but she has shown herself to be all about herself.

Excellent comment. It's dead cat city on here.

Great post !

Archie?

I'm not surprised you can already write so well!

.Egomania and pompous hectoring are hardly anything new in Hollywood, but rarely has a power couple had so little talent or charm to balance those things out.

it seemed William lied about his Covid status. If you don’t have to share it, you say it is a private matter. But you don’t lie and say repeat my no, you don’t have it, when you actually know you do.

if you don’t trust Meghan because apparently she has not told the truth (about fairly trivial stuff)

Well surely you also don't trust William because apparently he lied (about not such trivial stuff)?

and IMO, lying about Covid is actually quite a big deal for any senior public facing figure.

Yawn.
More whataboutery - William this time.

From the DM -

Robert Jobson took to Twitter to slam the news, saying: 'The fact is the palace lied about it. KP were are asked several times by several media outlets whether Prince William had contracted the virus and were told categorically “no”. The decision was taken to LIE, thus creating a problem of trust going forward. Poor judgement.

'If the palace is prepared to LIE about an issue as serious as Prince William, second in line to the throne, contracting COVID-19 what else have they LIED about when questioned by the press and why should the media believe any denials going forward? This raises serious issues.'

Richard Palmer, royal reporter for the Daily Express, tweeted: 'If the future King contracts a potentially fatal virus that the entire world is worried about during a lockdown and he and those around him cover it up, that raises serious questions about whether we can trust anything he or his advisers say.

The posters who repeatedly post whataboutery relating to PA to deflect from criticism of MM do it because they cannot defend MM.

I think you're absolutely right.

I’m not defending MM. I think lying can really erode trust.

what I don’t understand is if you are outraged by MM’s supposed lies, why aren’t you outraged by Williams?

usually when you have a discussion, you say x did something bad and then the other person says yes . And gosh do you know y did something even worse? And you sort of get into the spirit of things.

I just do not understand the blind need to defend some members of the RF. I would say apply Mumsnet forensics to all of them

I'll indulge you in your whataboutery.

if you don’t trust Meghan because apparently she has not told the truth (about fairly trivial stuff)

Well surely you also don't trust William because apparently he lied (about not such trivial stuff)?

Since when did lying to a court become fairly trivial stuff?

and IMO, lying about Covid is actually quite a big deal for any senior public facing figure.

and IMO not as big a deal as lying to a court.

I thought this thread was about apparently lying or bigging some comparison to Mandela.

of course committing perjury is a big deal and carries a criminal sentence.

would you agree then, that along with not trusting MM, you do not trust William? Because they both have apparently lied?

I would trust PW over MM any day of the week. Her manipulation and habitual embellishment of the truth is racking up by the day.

Who cares whether we trust PW? What a weird question. PW isn’t the subject of this thread. MM has told lies. Those lies are not diminished in any way by someone else - PW or anyone - telling or not telling lies.
It’s pure nonsensical deflection. And is that all you’ve got?
