They handled controversy well and with dignity....they knew they were going to have to confront the situation and got on with the job...

Unlike Meghan and Harrys trip to S.Africa...a mission to highlight the treatment, rape and corruption of young women only for them to make it all about them... "nobody asked me if I was OK..." :bawling:

:clap1: ... and that's the massive difference between Kate/Wills and Meghan/Harry and why the former are greatly admired and the latter are very much not.

The March visit to Belize, Jamaica and the Bahamas, during which the couple were heavily criticised for images that smacked of “colonialism”, saw the pair travel by charter jet - and their staff by scheduled flights for a planning trip - at a cost of £226,383.

It was the most expensive official royal tour of 2021-22.

:facepalm:

Very true, I don't think that's something to smile about though.

The charities that benefited from the cash were smiling.

I was smiling at your over reaction….it’s hardly ‘shocking’ unless you are naive enough to think this stuff has never happened before :hee:

How dramatic. :laugh:

As I've said before, no -one cares what Meghan does with her feet, it’s the s*** that comes out of her mouth that is the problem.

Hardly a personal attack by insinuating you are naive to think this stuff does not go on…. :laugh:

AnnieK 03-07-2022 05:31 PM

The cash thing stinks a bit to me. It was paid into the PWCF but not mentioned in the accounts if I understand that correctly? Seems fishy to me. Sure it happens a lot but any donations should be completely auditable surely? His charity fund also finances his Scottish estate....so where did that money go?

You post this like it's some sort of excuse, it's not. It doesn't seem you find it all that foolish if you're aware of this going on and yet still support Charles.

Cherie 03-07-2022 05:40 PM

I don’t understand why he would take it in that way, he can’t be short of cash plus it was in euros
