Nigeria 2

[OneHeartySnail]

To continue the discussion.

I thought the comparison with the Duke snd Duchess of Windsor (last post on the previous thread) was interesting.

A visit to a dodgy regime, (Nazi Germany) because they would call Wallis HRH and make it a quasi-royal tour.

Of course, at that point Nazi Germany had a dodgy human rights record, but it was before the horrors of the Holocaust.

Let's face it, with the security and human rights issues there is no way the IG could happen in Nigeria. So that is sn excuse.

A mystery.

I thought tweaks and tucks were supposed to make you look better.

She was a beautiful woman when she met Harry. She’s looking more like Bert these days.

Such a dreadful shame.

Mnaaaamnaaa.

Oh are you new?

😂

Oh gosh. It’s like the high school bullies have arrived.

Chewing gum with folded arms by any chance? 🙄

Royal Tours are at the request of the government. Official meetings of heads of state or their representatives for clearly defined purposes. Accountable and accounted for.

I wouldn't bother, Ohpleeeease. It was all explained at length on another thread, yet people kept on posting the same. I think it's another one for the bingo card.

I’m not particularly bothered who pays

I am. There are people they really shouldn't be taking money from, and it would be so easy to wrap it up as 'Here's a nice donation to Invictus' or 'You must come and see our facilities for disabled athletes'.

The tactic of taking something a poster says and twisting it beyond all recognition to paint them in a horrible light is an old one. So if you are new, congrats on getting to that level of nastiness so quickly!

And ah, BINGO!

To this thread? Yes? I didn’t realise the Guess who is back one was about Nigeria so wasn’t on that. Is that an issue? How long do you have to stick around to not be new?

Is this to me? Who have I painted in a horrible light or been nasty too? The poster who I reported for a racist comment?!

The students didn’t look too impressed to me. I would hate to be looked at like this…..it’s a look of disdain.

Stop gaslighting.

@Abouttimeforanamechange I don’t have a problem if people have an issue about where the money is coming from & want to discuss that because as you say that could be a potential concern. It’s just not something I’m personally bothered by.

Sorry gang, this is boring. Been tag teamed enough here so don’t expect the reaction you’re trying to elicit from me. You won’t get it today.

I am well aware of the history relating to the D&D of Windsor thank you, but it’s not a remotely fair or even rational comparison.

This is a thread about Meghan and Harry’s visit to Nigeria. Nazi Germany has nothing to do with it! Talk about tortured logic! I’m surprised that Mumsnet have let it stand tbh.

And if you think there is “no reason” to think that current day Nigeria will go down the same path as Nazi Germany why compare the two in the first place?

None of this is logical and it’s very disrespectful to Nigeria as a country.

It’s fair enough if you don’t like H&M but this is just desperate frankly.

If you think it’s a fair comparison then why not mention the video of our dear late Queen and the Queen Mother making a Nazi salute as a child? And Prince Philip’s four sisters who married Nazis? Unfair to do that I suppose?

Bouzy call definitely put out.

I hadn't seen any photos until now.
I wonder if it was intentional that her dress matched Harry's scalp.

😂😂

Oooh, is that a new one?

Aww didums to those who reported my comment as racist! Unless you have been there ( and I regularly do) then you can't really comment! It is absolutely filthy and the difference between those who have money ( usually corrupt money) and those who don't is stark! Those who are poor are treated like insects and crushed like they are nothing, therefore it is backwards! This is not racism but facts!! Stop trying to shut down people you disagree with by screeching racism!

You know what is racist? African Parks.

But let’s don’t talk about that. I know Harry and Meghan won’t.

Not a high school bully (we don’t call them high schools here) - merely an observer who is tired of beautiful women feeling the need to destroy their beautiful faces with unnecessary procedures.

They all look like muppets to me. And when they give themselves heavy eyebrows thinking it makes them look youthful when it overshadows their delicate features.

That doesn’t make them look youthful.

It makes them look like Bert.

And we don’t ’chew gum’ here either.

But you’ve gone with ‘bully’ so I call ‘drink’.

And an eyeroll emoji too. DRINK 🍸

Beautifully observed.

So shocking they went there given human rights abuses. What on earth possessed them? Shows habitual lack of judgement.

Looks like a last minute panic ASOS clearance buy 😂

It makes them look like Bert.

who is Bert?
