GBNews reporting Harry and Megan moving back to the UK

[TinyBlueDent]

GBNews are reporting that Harry and Megan are moving back to the UK at the end of August.

I won't believe it until I hear it on the BBC.

Justified in my opinion.

I am usually a 'burden of proof lies with the claimant' yes.

But in this scenario, it is akin to proving the tooth fairy doesn't exist.

We only know he cut ribbons, rocks up to swearing ins of new governments etc

The public have not been told he has a job and receives an obscene amount of public money, and he is an unelected normal human who people bow to.

I hope you enjoy the rest of your 8 month stay in the UK and return to Ireland with many fond memories 😊

Cheers

@TaraRhu Er, it's a Mumsnet gossip thread. Get a grip! It's all speculation!

Er, maybe don't try to make yourself sound clever by writing speculation as fact.

Provide the evidence he works.

Well that the problem Aoife you haven’t provided any

Oh....so you've got nothing then...?

😂😂😂😂😂

I could say "the Irish president isn't actually elected!" No. The news article you will inevitably provide...that's fake news, a lie. I don't have to prove she wasn't elected... I'm clearly right.

Well, excuse me if I don't roll the red carpet out.
These fools trashed the rest of the royal family, including our beloved Queen Elizabeth, & I will never forgive them for that alone.

I have.

You've dismissed three sources I provided.

Youre dismissing every news outlet on the planet, every eye witness.... Somehow you only believe he cuts ribbons once a week without providing any evidence and the refusing to do so when asked.

So where are you getting the information from that he does no work apart from cutting ribbons once a week. Just give us that evidence! Otherwise you've just made it up, haven't you?

Any chance you could give it a rest Red Aoife? You’re totally derailing the thread.

@AoifeRua from a fellow Irish person - why are you posting and why do you care so much. I came on just to see the sentiment , I don’t care either way. Most English people don’t , never mind Irish people.

It’s quite unusual for an Irish person to be so invested in the Royal Family. Did you read a lot of Hello Magazines in your youth?

The public have not been told he has a job and receives an obscene amount of public money, and he is an unelected normal human who people bow to.

He gets the Sovereign Grant it is funded via a percentage of the profits from the Crown Estate.

The crown estate profits are sent directly to the UK Treasury to support public finances and the monarch receives a percentage of these profits via the Sovereign Grant. It is a major collection of lands, buildings, and marine assets in the United Kingdom. It belongs to the reigning monarch "in right of the Crown," but it is not the monarch's private property, nor is it government property. It operates as an independent commercial business, and all its net profits go directly to the UK Treasury for the public good * *Ownership is held by the sovereign during their reign, but they cannot sell it. Management: Run independently by a board of commissioners under Acts of Parliament.

It's a classic UK fudge.

Plus without it the family still owns several estates so if they walked away from the throne they'd still be well off.

Plus these days no-one had to bow.

Is this the same beloved queen who paid off a claim with taxpayers' money for her son grooming young girls to make it go away?

Most would struggle to put 'beloved' and the queen in the same sentence.

Yes, I would agree she does seem to be a bit of a dick in many ways, but there was definitely racist writing about her too. It doesn´t have to be either or.

Precisely, I don't care. And nobody should be obsessed with normal humans or bow to them.

Have you forgotten that most royal and royal-adjacent women have had this kind of coverage? Remember "waity Katie" and how lazy she was supposed to be? The York sisters being body-shamed and mocked for their fashion choices? Sophie and fake sheik gate? Even tindall had some dwarf throwing incident brought up and he was a bona fide English sporting hero. And Diana only turned into a saint afrer she died. To say nothing of Camilla. I'm old enough to remember all of their coverage before they died/got engaged to the heir to the throne etc. Yes I did think the coverage of Megan had undertones but to say she was the only one subjected to horrible treatment is a gross exaggeration.

Aoife you are a card! I’ve never seen someone care as much as you. It’s a shame it couldn’t be about something else but we all have our foibles.

But you care enough to be having a very unhappy time in the place you’ve chosen. Even though you must have known how you’d feel before arriving.

I asked what work he does.

The burden shifts to you to show what he does. Because I can't invent a profession out of thin air. You did, and provided unreliable media rags such as The Telegraph, which is infamous for its absolute rubbish, and leans heavily to the right, in perhaps the most toxic manner I have seen in what is barely journalism.

I'm shocked too. Especially given Meghan's commercial ventures in US and the fact that they hated being here. What happened to the freedom flight? Why would they jump back into prison? All will it be British Cotswold Jam now? I guess may be they will stay for 2 years then back to the US. Seriously they will be massacred here given everything else thats happened. And they have always emphasised how happy and free they are in Cali which I belief. So why come back to suicide inducing (and I believe her as well) UK? This makes no sense. Even if the king is on his death bed. Harry can pop over to see him. Yes far but he has always made it obvious that he doesnt rate him. All good things in his life are because of his mum. Or may be they are moving to be close to her grave?

You're right, none of us know them. And that applies to William and Kate too. So why are you so keen to stick up for strangers in Harry and Meghan, but equally keen to mock the supposed lack of popularity of two different strangers?

No. I didn't. But it has been an eye opener.

I think what you’re putting out is influencing what you’re getting back. Ik so many people who don’t experience what you are.

Don't mistake me being baffled at other people's obsession with a normal family as me caring.
