Public funds for royals = celebrated. Harry & Meghan earning = attacked. Independence threatens comfort zones, apparently.
Let’s not start into the “Harry & Meghan are grifters” because they earn their own money.
@ThomasEvansAdur@King0243_PJC Having an illness doesn’t erase the vile things he said. He knew exactly what he was saying at the time, showed no real remorse, and repeatedly chose to say those things. Accountability doesn’t disappear just because someone is ill.
@PhoebesMom2020@karnetas@DailyMirror How is it stupid?
People keep propping Kate up as though she has significant power or authority, yet she doesn’t Even you seem to acknowledge that.
Also, nobody was screaming at Kate or the children. They were simply expressing their opinions.
@PhoebesMom2020@karnetas@DailyMirror It’s ironic to preach tolerance while dismissing British people’s opinions as “stupid” simply because you disagree with them.
@PhoebesMom2020@karnetas@DailyMirror Good parenting isn’t about shielding children from everything, but it’s not about exposing them to unnecessary risks either.
@PhoebesMom2020@karnetas@DailyMirror I’m from the UK. Protest is part of our heritage too. Many rights and freedoms people enjoy today came from people protesting.
Teaching children resilience is one thing. Using them to score points in political or cultural arguments is another.
@PhoebesMom2020@karnetas@DailyMirror She had the choice not to take them, it’s not the first time they have booed the royal family. They use the children as shields.
@JufS_Hofstade@hrndarshna@Kevin_Maguire Sweetie you lost the argument a few post’s back. Yet here you are, still talking. Do you want to read this post and try and again? Or will you realise how stupid you sound?
@JufS_Hofstade@hrndarshna@Kevin_Maguire No darling, I haven’t. There is a reason I don’t vote. And stop deflecting. You haven’t Answer my question, we are talking about the RF.
@JufS_Hofstade@hrndarshna@Kevin_Maguire Firstly, we’re not talking about the Belgian Royal Family. I live in the UK. Secondly, tell me one thing the Royal Family has done for me or my family personally that I should be grateful for? We pay our taxes, work our asses off, obey the law and get no special treatment.
@JufS_Hofstade@hrndarshna@Kevin_Maguire The Royal Family shouldn’t get a choice on paying taxes. People struggling to afford food or heating don’t get that option. If they’re supposed to lead by example, they should be held to the same rules as everyone else, if not higher ones. Royalists seem happy to ignore that.
@JufS_Hofstade@hrndarshna@Kevin_Maguire Let’s say William earns earning £27 million a year he would actually have to pay more in tax. Why should people with very high incomes be able to structure their affairs so they pay a lower effective tax rate than ordinary workers?
@RebeccaChasen@NBA_NewYork Why would he pretend that’s his brother? Din’t Prince William chose better publicity over standing by his brother? In other words sold him out to the press!
