Harry to give an interview to discuss Charles's illness

[Viviennemary]

I just read an article in the DM about this. I really honestly couldn't believe he would do this. I just hope it isn't true. Just how could he. Privacy????.

You are aware that a lot of the posters your airing your opinions to aren't white though ?

Ooh, so now you are questioning a person of colour on what is or is not racist and telling me I have to forgive Prince Harry for his past “incidents” (I see you minimising racism here) because he’s explained it. And then you want to lecture others about unconscious bias? Maybe start with yourself. If you want to live by critical race theory and concepts like unconscious bias, as Harry and Meghan do, then accept that glorifying in their children’s white heritage features is exactly that. If you want to be a reasonable person in the world, then accept that families talking about the colouring of current and future children is normal, not some great big racist conspiracy.

You seem to have a lot to say for someone who hasn’t watched all of their salient and infamous public appearances.

And I have to say assuming that most posters are white as a default is rather presumptuous and insulting.

Exactly Claw, maybe focus instead on dissecting and calling out your own unconscious biases that you have as a white person. Instead of taking it upon yourself to lecture others who you don’t even know. Self reflection would be preferable to spreading false information about the security and title decisions being racially motivated. A claim you’ve repeated, despite all the evidence otherwise.

In fact it’s a symptom of white privilege, presuming the majority group is the same demographic and background.

I wouldn’t dream of telling you to do anything

If you think my comments are genuinely racist then please report me to Mumsnet HQ

It was one of the biggest mistakes of my life. I felt so ashamed afterwards. All I wanted to do was make it right

He’s made a lot of mistakes in his life, hasn’t he? I wonder what else he’ll be ashamed of in years to come when the penny drops. Perhaps he could start by apologising to his school matron Pat who he humiliated publicly in Spare, for example #$$$

I said “us white folks” as a way of identifying white posters on this thread. Of course I wasn’t assuming everyone is white.

A longer way of putting it would have been

“those of us on here who are white”

Please report it if you think I have been racist.

He did. He sent her to private schools, notably the Little Red Schoolhouse, and paid for her university education. He also helped her professionally when he was Lighting Director (I think that's the title) of a soap opera.

👏

Well said!

Oh no, I’m really happy for your posts to stand so everyone can read how muddled you are on the matter of racism and bias, let alone all the facts surrounding the many contradictory statements of the Sussexes.

That’s very gracious of you and not patronising at all!

*He has also said on tv in relation to the Nazi uniform horror:

”It was one of the biggest mistakes of my life. I felt so ashamed afterwards. All I wanted to do was make it right.
"I sat down and spoke to the Chief Rabbi in London, which had a profound impact on me. I went to Berlin and spoke to a Holocaust survivor.

"I could have just ignored it and got on and probably made the same mistakes over and over again in my life. But I learnt from that."*

This is a crock of lies because he wore his Nazi uniform in 2005 and called his colleague a p#ki and a r#ghead in 2009 - so he has made ‘mistakes’ since - also he has never refered to this incident or apologised personally for his racist behaviour.

@Mymilkshakebringsallthepapstomycar your post isn’t patronising, it’s direct and fair.

I am sure that the staff will have signed NDAs, which means that they can't answer back. That agreement doesn't apply to H & M, though.

And oh so gracious! 😇

You haven’t seen the Oprah interview?

It’s really difficult to have an informed opinion about their claims if you never watched them talking about it.

It’s fascinating how the recent court documents continue to corroborate he bullies what he considers to be the ‘little people’. He certainly likes to throw his weight and title around! He’s so conceited, even for a royal.

You only speak for yourself, your opinions are yours alone , you do not speak for me or all the other "white" posters on this board .

Exactly. And constantly posting vague insinuations even after they’ve been demonstrated to be false. Ends up seeming like there’s an agenda…

How would anyone feel if they were mixed race and marrying someone with that heritage? Of course you would be sensitive to the issue.

“How would anyone feel if they were mixed race and marrying someone with that behaviour? Of course you would be sensitive to the issue.”

Fixed that for you. MM knew PH was a racist bigot - it was well documented in the global press.

Yes my opinions are my own thank you as are yours. Thank you for pointing that out.

So I am not allowed to speak on anyone else’s behalf … but it’s ok to “fix” other people’s posts.

OK! 😀

Good @Clawedfoot73 , then please replace " those of us who are white"

With as a "white" poster this is my own opinion.

Of course I have an agenda! A Republican one!
I have never hidden it.
