Interesting - apparently posted on LinkedIn a few days ago.

I see that his title is still Executive Director at the Foundation, despite having apparently resigned.

Edited

This is very interesting given the close relationship between the Liberal Democrats and campaigns to limit press freedoms that was revealed during the ANL trial.

I loved those pictures, really nice, and warm tributes.

Yes I thought it was nice ! , I especially liked Charles celebrating his father Phillip, showing that even when they have passed they are not forgotten.

re using the same picture! , and yet again never using Harry’s name!

She is definitely trailing something with the phrase 'one and only'.

Yes, that was lovely.

If William honoured KC for Father's Day, H will have to also

Maybe Harry doesn't realise it's Father's Day.

Isn’t it just. I wonder if Daisy Cooper, Lib Dem Deputy Leader and former Hacked Off CEO, was on the appointment panel that selected James Holt as their new political director??

I will try to find out. The Lib Dems like to think they are ‘open’.

Or Harry is feeling unwell after eating a burnt croissant and a crusty satsuma 😂

He’s not even the one and only British Spare Grin

He’s not even the one and only man to have married Meg.

He’s not even the one and only royal man who’s useless at everything and touches people inappropriately.

Starryfifty · 21/06/2026 18:46

Oh isn't she trying to rebrand As ever as one and only or something????

Yes, the dots keep joining up, don't they. And this is why I will never stop talking about H&M, despite all the rubbish about them "doing us no harm". They absolutely are doing harm with their attacks on free speech.

He's the one and only silk purse that turned into a sow's ear?

That breakfast...why segments of one dry old satsuma and a horizontal half of another? I have an image of Harry sitting up in bed like Red Riding Hood's granny, eating a dry satsuma half with a teaspoon 😂

He won't realise. I suspect his taste buds were killed off long ago 😂

Have William and Harry wished their own father a happy fathers day? Or is it all about selling their own brands via these manufactured posts not actually from their children?

Fathers day should be about honouring your own father not an opportunity for self promotion.

No need to do it on social media. Millions of us don't.

DaisyDooley · 21/06/2026 20:10

A burnt croissant and a crusty orange satsuma are excellent representations of Harry and Meghan.
The picture of Hrry with the kids - Archie looks like a blow up kid. Hes just sort of hanging there. I haven’t ever seen ‘the tig’ but I wonder what that was like -was she as clueless about PR and what people want to see then??

Not2identifying · 21/06/2026 20:11

I'm not on (other) social media but I don't believe the PPoW have wished either of their dads a happy father's day. As far as I can tell, the one post is addressed to W wishing him a happy birthday and father's day.

The King has posted a photo of himself and W and wished him a happy birthday.

bluegreygreen · 21/06/2026 20:19

The two posts I have seen are:

On the RF account - the Father's day post, with Charles and the late Duke of Edinburgh in uniform.
On the KP account - the Father's day/birthday post - William and Charlotte.

I haven't seen the other post that was shown in the DM story - apparently on the RF account, a picture of Charles and William at COP30, wishing the Prince of Wales a happy birthday.

the photos of the children look very uncomfortably staged.

I think they have to stage them if they want to stick with the no faces policy - question is - how long will the kids cooperate with staging.

Thedom · 21/06/2026 20:36

The photo looks weird, Harry’s smile seems different, forced, maybe he has forgotten how to smile or else that was a hard kick in the goolies from Archie’s knee. The kids are hanging off him, yet he is looking straight at the camera, in what looks like an uncomfortable hunch.

Anyway, at this point, those kids must have the most photographed backsides and bare feet of any celebrity kid.

Archie and Lilibet look younger than 7 and 5. Maybe it's the awkward angle.
Or maybe it's an old picture.

Starryfifty · 21/06/2026 21:15

The photo is very odd. Archie looks like he's just hanging onto Harry. It's so ridiculously staged
