Kate is not going with william to Singapore as George has important exams. What exams would a 10 year old be sitting in November?
I know nothing about private school systems so hoping someone here does.

Arguing that Harry deserves security (or whatever else) for the rest of his life because he didn't ask to be born a royal is no different to me demanding that my DPs pay for my Ocado orders because they chose to have me

Erm no. Strange that you think that the experience of being a royal child within an institution is comparable to getting your weekly groceries from Ocado.

I don't think the taxpayer should foot the bill for Harrys security, he's no longer a working royal nor does he live in this country, we spend enough supporting that lot

Charles has more than enough money and should be responsible for his sons safety

Really ? Harry is a middle aged multi millionaire. He can pay his own way surely !

Exactly

Harry seems to be infantilised. He’s middle aged and wealthy, with a time rich lifestyle

Daisyislazy · 10/10/2023 14:04

Harry has millions and Charles has billions, I would want to make sure my son and his family were safe

Actions have consequences. Harry chose to give up being a working royal . He chose to move overseas . He chose to openly criticise his family to make money .
And you think his father should pay for his security ?

MissElinorDashwood · 10/10/2023 14:09

I think it should have been phased out and he should have been given proper notice of it as it was dangerous to immediately remove it.

Agree @Iwantcakeeveryday

His father should have continued to pay for it from his own pocket until he was more financially secure.
The same father who willingly pays £3M for Andrew’s security since he is no longer a working royal.

Willing to pay for his disgraced brother but not his son and grandson (who actually didn’t do anything wrong at this point). Tells me a lot about what kind of man, father and grandfather Charles is.

His security was taken away BEFORE he openly criticised them.

He had millions in the bank thanks to inheritances ! Of course he was financially secure !

Daisyislazy · 10/10/2023 14:13

Why did he move? Why did he leave his family? Is he to be punished by putting his life st risk?

Different styles of parenting I guess. I have bought my son a car and there is a good deposit for a house for him , I can afford it and want to help out, it wouldn't matter to me what he had done, he will always be my son. I would also take the chance to look at myself and wonder what I had contributed to the situation

That type of security costs a fortune and obviously he is paying for it himself

MissElinorDashwood · 10/10/2023 14:10

But after they announced they were stepping down !
He cannot have it all his own way !
I have no time for Andrew but from what I understand, he rarely leaves the Windsor estate so is automatically covered by that security whilst there .
He doesn’t have private security.

MissElinorDashwood · 10/10/2023 14:16

Harry chose to give up being a working royal. He chose to move overseas .

Harry was driven out by vile harassment, bullying and death threats. He was trying to protect his wife and child.

Andrew chose to befriend a known sex trafficker and was accused himself of dubious behaviour.
His punishment? Security personally paid for by Charles.

We know why he moved ! Because they didn’t get the half in/ half out they wanted .
This has been discussed endlessly so there’s no point in me adding anything else .

Mylovelygreendress · 10/10/2023 14:18

I do love the way history is being rewritten.

Daisyislazy · 10/10/2023 14:19

And so as a consequence his life is to be put at risk?

How is it being re written? Where you at the discussions?

MissElinorDashwood · 10/10/2023 14:21

I agree @Daisyislazy

For me, Charles Windsor is no different to Thomas Markle. Both of them sold out their children and neither were there when their children were at their most vulnerable.

It's a matter of public record, he released the 'collaborating with HMQ' statement & then had to backtrack.

MissElinorDashwood · 10/10/2023 14:22

Example of history being rewritten 🤔

Daisyislazy · 10/10/2023 14:23

I think we can agree that there were bigger issues at play as to why they wanted to cut some ties

Why are we rehashing this. They left the RF and it’s perks and now have to fork out for their own security from their multimillions

They are adults in their forties, not babies

Roussette · 10/10/2023 14:27

Kate and William are to be commended for taking George's education seriously. Hopefully, he will be well-informed, well-rounded and multi-lingual, like his great-grandmother, and a great asset to this country in the future.

Gosh, that sounds so pompous! of course they take his education seriously... all helped by the fact he is having the very best that money can buy! (and I don't blame them for that)

I do not like to speculate on him being multi lingual, given that his father can only say 'cup of tea' in Welsh and him being Prince of Wales an' all Hmm

The current RF are v lazy as far as languages. Given they could have the best personal tutors, god knows why they don't bother.

As for being a great asset to the country... who knows, he might not want the job mapped out for him.

….are you telling me Andrew isn’t financially secure and that’s why Charles pays for his security?

Come on, now!

Daisyislazy · 10/10/2023 14:27

Thank god my mother at 79 still looks out for my welfare even though I am 53
