Most people did. I have a knack for choosing jobs where I was working regardless.

With comments like these,its hard to believe anything the press says.
It was reported over the weekend that Meghan had told Harry she must step away from the royal family, partly blaming William and telling Harry over Christmas: 'It's not working for me', according to the Times. But on Monday, Harry and William denied there is a rift between them in a joint statement

Splitting their time during the transition period as they no doubt have a lot of engagements to fulfil. Once that's over though they will move permanently.

Of course they'll probably have a home in London as they have a personal life here too.

It seems that if someone is a person of colour and they are not liked it’s because you are racist. However dislike a white person for the same reasons it’s simply because they are not liked...

No, the racism is racist.

The times should stop spreading gossip. They were told today, next time it will be in court if they're not careful

The papers only know what their flaky informants feed them... yet it's seen by some as gospel.
Never understood that.

They didn’t deny a rift, they denied Harry was being bullied by William which was reported in the mail today


Harry confirmed they had grown apart in an interview he gave to ITV during the South African tour

‘white privilege whitewashes racist and inflammatory language as unconscious bias. It perpetuates the bigotry of intolerant white people as ignorant, it defends and protects their private views once spoken as misspeak, and then it camoflages racist behaviour as error of judgement.’

Maybe that doctor could wash the chip off her shoulder and answer Phillip's question instead of reading her undergrad thesis...

So she's the real problem eh?

No, but people with her attitude really don't help.

[Jordan.]

Lol straight to accusing her of having a chip on her shoulder. Way to immediately validate what she was saying.

Based on what she said and how she said it, do you disagree with me on that?

[GiRTh]

You fail to see that you did, pretty much, exactly what she said then tried to rubbish her points. Ironic really.

What do you mean by people with her attitude? Your previous rant referred very little to her points. She said 'its not the job' etc so your point about bias isnt particularly relevant.

Yes, I agreed with everything she said and think she put it across very well despite Phillip trying to cut her off multiple times.

That's a racist comment. Either that or sexist. Why are you reducing her opinion to an undergraduate thesis?
Phils question was the usual pathetic response the kind you hear here often, examples.

Her response was apt to his question, if he is ignorant to the issue it's not her job to educate him!

Disagree 100%. What brings you to say she has an attitude problem.

If you can break down her point then we're all ears but dont bother attacking her. You're reinforcing her point if you do.

Okay I'll put her attitude to one side, and focus purely on her words. Her argument basically amounted to: "yes, white people are racist. But as I'm black I don't have to justify my views. Go and learn about them yourself."
