Interesting from Neil Sean (allegedly) today

The Sussexes had some very specific demands for coming to the UK
-the only royal residence they were prepared to accept was Windsor (presumably for adjacency to the K&Q and PPOW - vetoed)
-H&M also demanded full use of the royal helicopters for their transport

Invictus are also apparently demanding Harry turns up to drum up some sponsors for the struggling IG27

Meghan may or may not go to Althorp for the Diana connection

All of the drama is creating a lot of stress for Charles....

Can't help thinking how annoying it would be to be an army veteran, who has faced real danger and hardship, and been actually injured/disabled in active service... and to find out that the supposed figurehead of your sports organisation can't even turn up for a vanity event without twatting on about how terribly dangerous it is for him to walk down a street in the UK.

What an embarrassment.

I thought Elton John had fallen out with them ?

Yes no indication that he and Elton are pals anymore.

Harry was a soldier who served this country, he and his family could well be targeted in the UK. Charlie should pay for his son’s security, he has plenty of money , then it would not come from the public purse.

I know H & M can be insufferable, Harry really should have picked a far more sensible and honest partner, preferably a woman who would have happily lived in Africa, not the demanding one he choose. It’s a real shame George, Charlotte and Louis don’t know their cousins

Short memories, Lee Rigby

Harry has his own security. As has been pointed out innumerable times, he wants ARMED security . Charles can't pay for that.

Charles should pay for it.

It is like a re run of Diana and the lack of appropriate security , she ended up relying on Fayad’s , it’s appropriate that charlie should foot the bill, it’s his son and his family, no matter what H & M have done.

It can’t be bought, ffs!

Met security can’t be bought, yes even the King can’t buy it, it’s been explained time and time again.

Diana refused security, seriously check your facts before spouting your nonsense.

How many times do people have to explain this!

This ⬆️

I doubt the UK is more dangerous than Columbia, Nigeria, and Ukraine.

He lives in the US. He should move to a state with liberal gun laws, pack his own gun, and train his family. He's an ex-soldier so he knows how to use weapons.

I'm not sure what point you're trying make here....Harry isn't the only person to have served in HM Forces.

Serving personnel and on odd occasions their families, have been the victims of terrorist attacks in the past, for example by the IRA during the troubles.

Even so there was never any expectation that all of them should be accompanied by armed POs funded by the tax payers....they were (maybe still are) simply advised on best measures to take to help ensure their own safety.....

If Harry doesn’t feel safe there is a very simple answer. He can stay away. Not wanted. Not needed. Not liked.

And finally BBC have got it. Will we care. No.

Hasn’t Norfolk suffered enough, what with AMW being banished there? 😝

On another note, I fully expect to see a report soon of a threatening letter cut and pasted (old school style) out of DM and Telegraph headlines sent to the HaMs which will be given as the reason for their need for Swat Style Super Security.

She won’t want official pictures of KC with the children because they would have to show their faces (I can’t imagine KC agreeing to a shot with him and the backs of their heads).

Therefore she will no longer be able to monetise the first full face shots with Hello! or The Beano or whatever magazine will pay the most. An ‘at home with the HaMs and HaMlets spread would generate a big one-off payment.

Diana refused security.

If that list is accurate is yet more evidence that Harry all hasn't grasped the difference between being a senior working royal and simply a member of the King's family. Everything he asks for is only available to a senior royal.

Plus, had she worn a seatbelt, she would have survived

I can’t believe people still spout this nonsense.

Yes, it's the Harry and Meghan script. No basis in fact.
