I'm not surprised, choosing that name was so brazen

It's the circle of life.

.

The Tories are not doing well in the polls.

.

I’m sure she was not literally the angriest she’s ever been, but I don’t have the energy to explain what “rhetorical effect” is.

Headline today said the Her Maj was chuffed
!

I think the registering the domain name is a bit 😱before you have had a child. They told the queen -they didn’t ask. They said they were going to call her Lily - name her Lily then. (?)

I can imagine the conversation

• Hi gran wonderful news Meg has had a baby girl
• wonderful news Harry
• yes we are calling her Lily for you and Diana for my mum
• that nice -
• her formal name will be Lilibet Diana
• wonderful news about the baby Harry (inwardly thinking 🤔 that a bit weird to use my nickname but I can’t be anything but positive else it will be all over the papers ) bye Harry mustn’t keep you give our love to Meghan, Archie and the baby

They didn’t ask because they don’t need to ask. It’s a non story but the domain name things are weird ….

"the only thing I own is my name"

The poor Queen would be turning her grave if she knew that was attributed to her. She was a clever woman so I'm sure she knew that whilst it was her nickname, she didn't 'own' that name. She would never have been so crass.

Daily Fail is useful for lining the cat litter tray. I recycle a friend's copy. Line the tray, rip the rest of the rag into pieces and place in tray together with the litter. Cat knows what to do.

So funny that people think the Daily Mail make up royal news to distract from other articles they’ve published. Apparently not writing the articles they don’t want people to notice hasn’t occurred to them.

Oh Gosh do you realise what you have said??

There's another story that Andrew's biggest regret is not saying the famous photo was faked. Not that he hung out with Rpstein I'm the first place. It seems like it's just open season now with aides selling stories to journalists. BP needs to shut the leaks off because they are just making them look more and more ridiculous and out of touch, if it's not them permittingvthe leaks. They seem to have lost control of their staff.

The politics is sooooooo boringTBH

Are we all writing in code now?

I agree with this. I don’t think the Queen gave a stuff about palaces and all the rest of it. Her happiest time was when she started married life with Phillip in Cyprus (?) Whereas for M&H houses and wealth seem to count for everything. They’re so tacky.

What?!!! Do you not understand how demanding and exhausting that is? You literally have to run around 😂

This is now the headline in The Daily Mail.

If he thought moving to the USA and victory in Court would mean he could move on from the scrutiny of the press he so hates, he was very naive.

They are going to go for him now. Charles tried to warn him about this.
On every front he's played his hand so badly.

He seems to beleive that full frontal attack and short term 'wins' will get everyone, his family and the press, to give him whatever he wants.

Such a naive strategy.

It’s a non story but the domain name things are weird ….

It’s not weird, it’s prudent. Buckingham Palace have been doing for members of the royal family since at least 2014.

If she cared do little about money, why did she stash so much wealth in offshore accounts? Why did she get her lawyers to exempt her from.so much legislation? Why did she campaign to get rid of the Civil List payments and change what the Royal Fsmily were paid? Why did she try and get the taxpayers to pay for the repairs to Windsor Castle after the fire? Why did she try snd claim winter fuel payments to heat her castles? It's easy to say 'Oh money means nothing to me' when you don't have to pay the bills.

I’d love to be on the planning committee for creating distractions.

“Ok, so three years from now we are going to need cover. Bob, could you get started writing a book? Then we will line up Murdoch to print some excerpts.”

Fgs the Queen is dead, the press need to leave alone a 3-year-old little girl and her name.

I am afraid that little 3 year old has very poor narcissistic parents, her name will be the least of her worries.

Do you think she personally arranged these things. She was surrounded by advisers and accountants. I genuinely don’t think she cared about any of it. When she gave a Christmas speech in front of a ‘gold’ piano people were outraged. But to the Queen it was just a meaningless piece of furniture.

I wouldn't be surprised if they just gave her a heads-up that they were naming her Lilibeth, I very much doubt they asked if they could, that's not really their style.

They were so resentful and aggrieved about not getting the half in/half out, I really doubt there was much affection behind their use of the name, I think they were protecting their kids future connections to the RF, the RF being their golden goose (said golden goose now appears to be dead as a Dodo).

They have proven themselves to be a snarky couple when they get push back.

"While there is not any jurisdiction by The Monarchy or Cabinet Office over the use of the word "Royal" overseas"

""Following conversations with The Duke, The Queen has written confirming that in stepping away from the work of The Royal Family it is not possible to continue with the responsibilities and duties that come with a life of public service," the palace statement said."

In response, Prince Harry and Meghan pushed back with a statement that pointedly referenced the Queen's: "We can all live a life of service. Service is universal."

This is now the headline in The Daily Mail.

Pathetic isn't it... God knows why it's called a NEWSpaper. It's not News, it's just bottom feeding trash.

Why a little girl and her name can't be left alone, I do not know
