I don't think the two are comparable.

It’s all negative coverage though in the main, the comments below the articles reflect what we all think here, they may think it a “win” for now but long term it’s really cooked their goose.

And, above the line, they've pissed off their WhatsApp MSM contacts.

They seem to keep bouncing back from
every failure though. No one ever challenges them , questions them or says anything to their face. I find it extraordinary that they are still carrying on with the absolute shitshow that is their lives. Any sensible person would have sold the ugly mansion and gone to live quietly off the radar.

But how much does that really matter?

No-one is going to leave the group, because they all want the information.

They might be a bit more cautions about how they write it up (throw a few more caveats in), but if they were bothered about accuracy they would have been bothered from the start.
They are writing articles with the intent of having people click on them to read/be engaged enough to comment.
They will be covered legally as they will have been given the information by the 'Sussex information officer' - or whatever his current title is.

CHATGPT had him at Windsor Castle receiving Shirley Botchwey, followed by a meeting to do with the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting 2026.

It occurred to me earlier that in the midst of the speculation about which celebs would be attending TS’s wedding, including a small amount of discussion about whether William would attend. No one - at least no one serious - suggested even Meghan as a possible guest. She’s last years reality TV star.

I've always been completely convinced that this is all Meghans doing too. She wants to create as much difficulty as possible so that she has an excuse not to come to the UK. There is no way in hell she wants her kids anywhere near the RF and she doesn't want to be either. So she stokes up all of this paranoia in him to suit her own ends. Meanwhile he becomes increasingly upset as he labours under the delusion that if only he could get armed protection in the UK whenever he wants it, he would be magically reconciled with the family, Meghan would be welcomed with open arms, and life as he knew it would resume. He is completely deluded.

Yes they are never challenged by our weak pathetic main stream media, that much is true, but as for bouncing back, they will never bounce back to where they want and need to be, royal adjacent, all the status, glamour and money of royalty is now a busted flush, they are finished where that is concerned.

What does the Court Circular say?

I go back to a PP ( sorry I can't remember the name ) but not only are H&M not particularly skilled in much , ( apart from being brass necked enough to sell the RF down the river for $$$$$$$$$) but They are not particularly likeable
And frankly if you are going to make your living from one of your families , who has given you a platform no-one else could dream of , then y'know trying to be likeable might be a good move. I cannot imagine why they thought the OP interview and the NF documentary was a good idea. I suppose they were still caught up in the "everyone is giving us lots of money for telling our story" without thinking it through.

Oh it's been said before but seriously I think the root of their problem comes from their initial decisions just prior and on the leaving the WRF. & then doubling down on the "I was silenced" H's court cases etc. They really have not helped themselves and I do think the RF have been great in their ignore , ignore , ignore approach.

But they have fewer and fewer MSM voices. Royston sees which way the wind is blowing. Tina Brown, sympathetic to HAN when Megxsit happened, is now a sceptic. They have lost Tom Sykes andvtgecDaily Beast.

More and more, positive PR is going to have to be paid for.

Not sure about 'bouncing back'.

They've been on a consistently downward trajectory for years now. Ever since Mexit. Maybe even before.

That's why Meghan is selling matches on the internet, and Harry is desperately clinging onto to any and all traces of the life he chose to leave.

Yes they are definitely on a downward trajectory, I'm just amazed they keep flogging a dead horse.

What’s BLT ? ( apart from a tasty sandwich!)

I think it's meant to be BTL - below the line, i.e. the comments on articles

😄

Can’t see Camilla extending an invite to the 80th…

Can you imagine?! The last thing she'd want to see is his miserable face.

MM didn't want H and the RF anywhere near her dad, because hecwould have provided info that would cast doubt on the personal narrative she had cionstructed for H.

She now doesn't want her DCs anywhere near the RF for the same reason.

Ffs so now London is a no go but Birmingham is fine?!

it makes literally zero sense.

but I guess this is in a world where Harry is desperate to find a spin that allows him to do what he wants (bring Meghan and the kids) without conceding his point (it’s toooo dangerous without police protection.)

Utter bullshit really.

also to add, I really really hope Harry wins none of the points against the DM. I can’t bear the idea of him doing some smug victory speech, even if it’s all spin against a huge financial loss. You know the MSM would just report his words without pointing out the obvious. Obnoxious twat.

But - unless they're stupid - the WhatsApp contacts won't report HAM operational notes as trusted sources, though. It will be "HAM say that they'll..", not "HAM will be..".

The WhatsApp contacts will be more inclined now to protect their reputations and get the clicks from a spin on the info provided in the operational note.

Cos the footie is on and it is boring, I checked.

The Times Court Circular sez the same

It’s not just that they are unlikeable! , they are also the six I’s
insufferable!
irritating
inescapable
incessant
illicit
insolvent

I wanted to ask ! But felt I would look dim!! 😁
