Harry and Meghan on another pretendy royal tour

[ParrotsAndLions]

This time to Jordan. What do they bring to it, exactly? What is their role? To bring attention to the issue of Syrian refugees? Jordan is dealing with them fine.

What are they there for? In what capacity?

But it’s not the refugees who are getting talked about is it. The refugees and those in Gaza dont need these two being disaster tourists to bring attention to the situation in Syrian or Gaza. The world is quite aware of it what is going on. All this “trip” has achieved is that more people are laughing at their continued ridiculous antics. Again that fact that you think it’s okay that WHO have wasted resources on these two rather than the needy say everything. The pair of them will NEVER been seen as philanthropists. That ship has long since sailed.

To me he looks moved by the trauma these people have suffered.

It is something he understands - the terrible toll of war.

Beyond embarrassing?

So much for so little?

What dod you do today? And how did you look while you did it?

Silly, empty headed post.

Actually, you are wrong there.

You, and your coterie here are laughing.

Anyone with any compassion is talking about the refugees.

The Gazans in Jordan are thrilled actually.

Go and have a look at the threads on line - there are loads.

I'm not aware of ANY Epstein ties to Jordan, are you? There was a history of Epstein's US passport use released to a US news outlet and thus made partially public last January, and more detail on apparent dealings with some additional ME countries in the last dump earlier this year. There are significant and questionable ties to Lebanon, Israel, Saudi, UAE, and Qatar but Jordan would, I believe, be a connection that has not been identified previously in the public domain.

From one perspective, the Sussexes' trip is just the same as any other celebrity trip, and if it does gain any useful publicity for good causes, that has to be good.

My primary discomfort about this trip is that it overshadows the Duchess of Edinburgh's current visit to Somalia and Kenya, which as always is poorly reported. The work she does with charities who support women and girls who have been victims of abuse is important, and particularly topical at present.

The other issue is the reporting as a royal/pseudoroyal tour, not helped by the comments of the UK ambassador to Jordan (I think he'd have been better saying nothing). It feeds into the current discussion about royal roles, and they may find it turns out not to be the best publicity after all because of that.

just another pair of royal grifters using U.K. titles and privileges to feather their own nests!

how about you calculate the cost of diplomatic relations between countries being undermined by two people who represent only themselves?

No the obvious answer to @Benjithedog question is obviously, they are attempting to make a difference to their own pr and bank balance.

How does their trip to Jordan, as guests of WHO, undermine the relationship between Jordan and UK?

We have been told that King Charles, and the Wales's have good formal and informal relationships with the Jordanians.

If they did not want PH and MM to be at the conference they would have said. These things are always cleared - I am sure the Jordanian's will have communicated about this many months ago.

The division in the Windsor family is well known after all.

These kinds of events take an awfully long time to put together. It would not have been a surprise to anyone.

This was not an official royal tour organised by our government, the Jordan royal family did not greet or receive them , this was a pr event organised by WHO .
they both have no experience or training with the un , they are nothing but a liability at this point.

they are attempting to make a difference to their own pr and bank balance.

You say that with authority.

Therefore, I assume that you know them and were privy to the decision making process.

Or, perhaps you work for WHO, and were part of the booking team.

Or perhaps, it is your opinion, rather than a fact, and one that is personal.

At which point you may be right.

Or, you may be wrong.

We simply don't know their motivation.

Personally, I think it is intuitive that PH would go to something like that - he has always privileged war victims.

Your opinion is based entirely on your bias , nothing about Harry screams anything but personal grievances and feathering his own nest .

If they are the caring humanitarians you think they are , let them relinquish the titles and do it as themselves, no royal connections greasing the wheels, wholeheartedly as themselves.

The Jordanian royal family would have known they were coming --- everyone involved will have been aware of the potential diplomatic fall out.

The King of Jordan would have to have given the nod. For that to happen, I am pretty sure KC would have been given the nod by him.

I agree they have no training etc. But that is not what they are invited for.

They are there to raise the profile of the event.

Which they did.

I would hazard a guess that WHO are delighted.

nothing about Harry screams anything but personal grievances and feathering his own nest .

To you.

But not to me.

As you say we all see it a bit differently 😉

You have no idea what you are talking about! Hospitality and friendship between the royal families mean that if the Sussex’s had been officially invited and vouched for they would have been greeted and looked after by the Jordan royal family. They were not ! , not only were they not but the WHO head was invited to a meeting with the royal family and they were not .

If they are the caring humanitarians you think they are

I did not make that claim.

I did say that "Personally, I think it is intuitive that PH would go to something like that - he has always privileged war victims."

As for their titles and so on?

Every member of the Royal family leeches of the State.

Every single one.

I think the whole lot should be thrown out.

But, in the meantime - it seems that PH is the only one not leeching?

I mean, sure, take the title away.

Won't change much.

This whole situation is why non working royals need their titles removed! , it’s hard enough to police the ones without and here we have two non working non resident royals using their titles to shoehorn themselves into something they are not qualified for.

👋

The nastiness on this thread makes me sad. Whatever you think about the family situation, they’re not doing anything other than leading their lives. You may disagree with how they’re doing it, but the personal attacks / name calling / presumptions about their character and motives isn’t really necessary.

Ouch! 😂

@jeffgoldblum I never claimed that the Jordanian RF invited them - I did say they would have know they were coming.

Yeah you don't see that anywhere else on here do you? 🙄

Oh he’s leaching alright, he wants the hardworking taxpayers to pay for his security while he swans around massaging his ego , his court cases have cost the taxpayers money, which he hasn’t paid yet .
american taxpayers are footing the bill for trips to the theatre and tattoo parlours , they are not happy either.
