Really? How the feckin’ hell does a rabid tabloid know what Chuck thinks about this. Nice chats over video away from the courtiers and listening ears of the royal ‘servants’ is exactly what is needed. I hope they are enjoying the private time emensley!

@BlueParrotRedParrot Not sure who I would put through first. Andrew probably. Then the King. Then I'd set up a Tournament where all the heirs fight to the death......

@MrsDanversGlidesAgain "the press has a vested interest in keeping the Royal Family at the front of the public's mind. It generates lots of income for them. And if that means using the King's health as clickbait they will. Because they are unscrupulous and amoral. They will also use it on behalf of the Tories as a distraction technique. While people are caught up in royal dramas, they have less attention to spare for government shenanigans.

I think that's what @DingDingaling was saying.

They mention the “unelected monarchy”. Nothing about the Tories. So no, that isn’t what they were saying.

I think this was just a reverse ferret after their initial post which seems to blame the King for having cancer 🤷‍♀️

Oh right. Mature media studies graduate is surprised media will publish stuff that people will click on and read so as to generate income, garnished with a bit of conspiracy theory garbage about 'what we aren't being told while the evil media is distracting us.' Obligatory mention of Murdoch, as well.

Sorry I wasted both our times.

I'm sure you would have the most pointless and useless royals lining up for the chop first

What a nasty, nasty post. By 'all the heirs', I suppose you mean the Wales children? Then Harry and his children?

@Abouttimeforanamechange "What a nasty, nasty post."

For the avoidance of doubt, it wasn't a serious suggestion.
