H&M asked if they could have a lift home on AF1 after HMQs funeral.
Environmentally friendly sure, but makes them look grabby and entitled again. Makes for a good story though.

Yup, there will be a lot of coverage of H & M over the coming days to deflect from his greedy father taking so much more money that they do not need. You'd think they would need less after losing 5 working family members. Why are they requiring more?!

Does anyone have a link to this story? I googled but can only find the one about a reduction in the rate. (Unless I am misunderstanding SG and it doesn't mean sovereign grant 🤦‍♀️)

its linked elsewhere on the board

If you think posts break guidelines, report them. Don;t make personal attacks on other posters.

They haven’t even released a denial via Omid Scobie, who came out to defend them against the recent Radar “trial separation” story. On this story - nothing.

Why on earth would they defend against a Radar story?

You ought to see what they write about William & Kate, you'd be shocked I can tell you!
I won't link or say what here, because in months to come I will be accused of spreading nasty rumours about the couple!

Serenster · 21/07/2023 08:31

Harry is not the only person taking on the press. So why single him out for abuse of process? Is Doreen Lawrence also engaged in abuse of process?

Because we’ve seen in great detail how Harry had no actual evidence to bring one of his cases, of course. And another one may well be well long out of time. The other people’s claims do not, to my knowledge have those issues. If they do, I’d also regard them as abuses of process.

@MrsMaxDeWinter

She wasn’t in good health in the last few months, surely Meghan and Harry would have spotted that in all the zoom calls Meghan said they had with her.

As with all the RF they were invited every year to Balmoral but didn’t go although Harry spent a lot of time there when he was younger and claimed to love it . When Archie was a few months old , they stated that he was too young for the journey yet managed to go to Elton’s pad in S France during the same summer .
When they were over for their events in the days before HM’s death , they could have gone up to Balmoral on one of the many London to Aberdeen flights but chose not to.

That is so untrue. The two of them seem to be having a decent conversation. You can hardly call it harrassment!

We heard the other cases too, what is the evidence Doreen Lawrence has that Harry doesn't?

Your constant going on about what you post and what you won't post is getting rather tedious and disrupts the flow of the thread. People are going to refer to you in the months to come? To quote you "lol". Come on now .

I imagine that must surely be a huge regret for Harry now. It would anyone I am sure.

I don't find @Roussette tedious at all. She has been here long enough to know exactly how things pan out and we see her posts targeted here often. She can post what she likes within guidelines.

I'll post what I want thanks, I don't need a name I don't know policing what I say and being personal. lol. Grin

Scroll by my posts if they upset you that much.

The flow might be disrupted by you bringing it up in the first place, and me feeling I have a right to reply. Just a thought.

Indeed especially as he is on record saying he had concerns about the people around HM . If I had those concerns about an elderly relative I would be hot footing it to visit.

We haven’t heard Doreen Lawrence’s case actually. She’s a claimant in the case against ANL, the Mail’s publisher. They are still determining if the claims have been made in time or not in that action.

The claims that have recently gone to hearing are those against MGN, the publisher of the Mirror. That’s the one in which Harry gave evidence personally. Doreen Lawrence isn’t involved in that.

I'm sorry I must have missed you specifically referring to that case. We heard other claimants in the MGN one, did you look at those too? What evidence do the other claimants have that Harry is missing? What kind of evidence do they look for, or need rather, in phone hacking or unlawful info gathering cases in the past? It would be something hard to actually provide evidence for I imagine, so I am interested in what they do rely on.

Serenster · 21/07/2023 09:01

I’m not your personal google, Iwantcakeveryday 😀 There was plenty of coverage of the evidence presented to the High Court in the MGN case. If you didn’t follow it at the time, you can look at some of the archives? I’ve said what I wanted to say about Harry’s case.

pintery · 21/07/2023 09:02

"Triggered by my name" 😂😂

Serenster · 21/07/2023 09:04

I'm sorry I must have missed you specifically referring to that case.

Also - you didn’t miss this. It was MrsMaxDeWinter who brought up Doreen Lawrence, not me. I have only referred to her to correct your misapprehension above that she was been involved in the recent trial.

Mylovelygreendress · 21/07/2023 09:04

I’m not your personal google, Iwantcakeveryday.😂. I am going to remember that next time my DH asks me a question he could easily find the answer to himself ( this morning’s example- “ what were the bye - election results !”)😂

To be fair I do like to read some of the H and M supporters' posts as they are well written and I can see their point even if not agreeing with it. They don't usually bring much of their own life and perceived status into it. Of course anyone can post what they like within the guidelines. I have met IRL a couple of posters who at one time thought they were the backbone of MN. It's a concept that I find amusing at best.

"Meghan has approached NASA to be part of the next Space Mission

Harry has asked for a privileged pass to be present in the Senate for voting

Meghan has approached Richard Curtis to ask him for a star part in Love Actually Part2

Meghan is a sleeper agent for the US Government"

Is no one going to guess which headline about H&M was reported as fact?

No googling !

How unfair. I irritate you. That's fine. You don't have to make it personal. I wouldn't dream of doing that about you.
