who on earth has self respect so low that they would not only work for that moron but put up with being shouted at by him

This was the comment I was responding to.

Not everyone has the degree of privilege shown in that post, of simply being able to walk out of a job.

Not so long ago working for the royals and putting up with any associated bad behaviour was positioned here as worth it for the CV boost.

Has that changed?

I think it's always depended on the role and what job you are trying to get next. Hiring a nanny who had previously taken care of prince and princesses would impress some ultra rich families, I think.

Having a senior chef role and being able to talk about cooking for state banquets and world leaders would look pretty good.

Someone who styles the Princess of Wales has a very visible CV on display.

Someone who worked as a housekeeper for a royal family would be able to leverage that into much better paid work perhaps as a concierge service provider at a top hotel etc.

Similar to being a PA to an A-list celebrity. Some celebrities are infamous for their diva behaviour - I imagine putting up with that for a couple of years to be able to mix in certain circles and network is worth it.

Absolutely. If you need a job, it's the right location, hours and pay, you'll take it. Not everyone has the luxury of turning down employment.

Yes @simpsonthecat these accusations of being someone else continue I have already cleared it up with MNHQ as they temp banned me after accusations before and if they continue I am going to start reporting posters for harassment.

Why people need to start attacking people personally instead of addressing points they make, labelling people as supporters, being someone else, I thought we were mature adults here ro discuss topics not act like children and insult people.

Wait, what?! Do tell.

Jesus who on earth has self respect so low that they would not only work for that moron but put up with being shouted at by him for not treating him Royally enough?

Its bullying behaviour its hard to get out when it happening to you and not everyone can just walk out of a job with nothing else secured

Archived version here, @Decacaffeinatednow: https://archive.md/QFajb

I'd expect nothing else from Sarah, for whom the money's always come before all else, but was amused to see her spokesman insisting that she cut contact once she learned the extent of his offences

We've heard that one before, both with Andrew and his older brother, and it doesn't always age very well

simpsonthecat · 27/06/2026 16:54

Sarah is nauseating. How she creeps round people (a sex offender no less) calling him her spectacular friend and a legend 🤮 just because she is trying to get money and freebies and doesn't care
I hope she hangs her head in shame for a very long time

Recklessismymiddlename · 27/06/2026 17:13

You are assuming she feels shame @simpsonthecat

she took her daughters to see him. Spoke to him, about her daughter being on a ‘shagging weekend’ to a man like that.

I doubt she feels shame. I suspect just regret she can no
longer milk a title, she only got from marrying a man, she divorced years ago.

But then maybe I’m wrong. And I’m grumpy from the heat.

In this case he is far more pernicious than a sex offender! , a human trafficker, a pedophile and blackmailer !! This is the man she consorted with, the man she apparently wanted to marry and the man she exposed her young girls to!!
I would raise your nauseating and offer despicable!

simpsonthecat · 27/06/2026 17:25

Yes he was far more than that, I couldn't be arsed to type it all out 🤣

That link and how she arse licked him and outright lied time and time again saying she had cut contact
So glad she was caught out

P.s. too many arses in this post I know!

Arse licked and Epstein 🤢 🤮

jeffgoldblum · 27/06/2026 17:33

As @Recklessismymiddlename , stated earlier! It may be the heat making me particularly annoyed at the moment but just looking at her face has pissed me off! 🤷‍♀️

There's a difference between being upset by someone's actions and getting pissed off just from seeing their face. If it's affecting you that much, maybe it's time to step away for a bit

I’m sure @jeffgoldblum greatly appreciates your advice.

Who remembers Jonathon Aitken? A former MP jailed for perjury for very dodgy dealings whilst a Minister for Defence, and on the Privy Council, he was very busy procuring prostitutes for Arab businessmen back in the day, along with other acts.

Anyway, he has been in touch with the Palace because now he is an Anglican priest he wants to 'help' AMW with 'spiritual guidance'....

Okaaay.....

Andrew MW offered support by disgraced former politician-turned prison chaplain

Jonathan Aitken 'found God' while serving a jail sentence for perjury...and now he wants to help the former Duke of York

Really ? , I have no comment 😶

LipglossAndLies · 01/07/2026 16:41

I see Andrew is starting to be more visible...here we go. The good old hide for a while till it dies down and then come back out the woodwork strategy is still in play. 🙄

Is he?
Where?

simpsonthecat · 01/07/2026 17:00

He went to watch Sophie in a horse driving competition, to be fair he kept his head down. Quite rightly!

OP posts:
Recklessismymiddlename · 01/07/2026 17:04

What. The. Hell.
why is he even showing himself in public????

IAmATorturedPoet · 01/07/2026 17:20

Thanks, I hadn’t seen anything about that.

I don’t think you can expect him to spend the rest of his days under house arrest though, he just needs to keep his head down if he’s out in public.

Yes it’s very tricky isn’t it! , on one hand we want him to be punished and disappear! But on the other hand obviously he can’t stay in his house unseen forever! 🤔

LipglossAndLies · 01/07/2026 17:44

Noone expects him to not go anywhere but we know it is very possible to do things and go places without the public knowing. 🙄 As demonstrated recently by Catherine.
