I actually put more sway in people's opinion on here than.anything that comes out of a gob for hire hack such as.Morgan.

He says that Harry and Meghan are cashing in, pigs at the trough etc etc.....the man needs to loon how he is earning his living in the here and now and evaluate his words quite carefully. If they are cashing in.....so is he.

He accuses them.of virtue signalling whilst virtue signalling himself.

As a neutral....its actually hilarious
I’m not getting paid to call Meghan and Harry liars but they are!

I don’t have to like him or agree with his choice of words to share the same opinion as him but I do

Don't worry ,I'm sure some of us still remember his glorious phone hacking times . He's probably proud of those corrupt days aswell.

Not every folk wants to listen to his garbage.

There are reasons they are called out so often.
The Royal family DO, they don’t just spout meaningless platitudes which are all talk and no action.
I don’t hear the Royals or any celebrities act the victims and whine whine moan moan like Meghan and Harry do. I didn’t see the Royals or any celebs give high profile interviews telling millions a lot of lies about how badly their family treated them; I don’t hear the Royals or any celebrities banging on about compassion and unity when they treat their own families, especially a very elderly grandmother whose husband was dying, with such disregard for her feelings….and I don’t hear the Royals preaching endlessly about climate change then taking unnecessary jaunts over and over again on private jets (William and Kate fly commercial as much as is possible nowadays.)

People aren’t ‘harassing’ a nice, caring couple. They are disgusted at their blatant hypocrisy, the bare faced lies, the whining of 2 very over - privileged people who have absolutely everything those people you mention would feel blessed to have and it’s still not enough. They want more; more money, more deals, more attention, more plaudits, and yes, more press.

When all that comes up is obsessed! mental! insane! his poor wife! and no actual rebuttals of what he says regarding them you could have a point there.
(I kinda not adored but really liked Meghan at the beginning, but this obviously doesn't apply to me.)

Charles has indulged in many a little self-indulgent whinge about the fam over the years as you know full well I’m sure. He’s also spent decades promoting environmentalism but I’ve not seen him flying Ryanair .

The elephant in the room is that Harry and Charles are much more similar than either of them, or any fan of the Monarchy, would care to admit and more similar to each other than either of them are to William. If Charles had been a little less under the Royal thumb, or perhaps if he had met the right partner, or in fact even if he’d just been 2nd in line rather than first-born… he’d probably have gone the exact same way.

The Queen has become hard as nails over the years because she sort of had to, and probably partly because she was a wartime kid. Other than that? The Royals are a pretty moany bunch really, aren’t they? William seems different thus far but let’s face it… in that family it’s him that’s the odd one out, not Harry. Most of them are like Harry. They just didn’t leave.

there are a couple of royals that fall into the ok category, the rest are an absolute shower, and that includes the queen.

Lets also be frank, there are not many in the global population that are not hypocritical in some way or another, its human nature. Do as I say, not as I do, isn't a phrase that came from nothing

When all is said and done, H & M for me are just a couple of privileged, spoilt, wannabees. I find it amusing to follow their ins and outs on here, but i've never watched their interviews, i don't follow their every move. They just don't rank as particularly interesting. It was news when they stuck 2 fingers up at the royal family but that was over in 5 mins , all the rest from them has been a lot of huffing and puffing

I'm not sure that Harry and Meghan are worth the 80-odd posts in this thread. TiBB is the only place I see them mentioned.

They just didn’t leave.
Charles having family related moans a few times about Mummy and Daddy not being around much and being sent to a boarding school he hated over the course of decades is hardly the same as Harry’s interviews and whineathons about his family who pandered to his every need and covered up numerous tantrums, and no, I don’t think the birth Royals are a pretty moany bunch..what makes you think so?? Examples?
I agree with you that Charles and Harry are similar in character in one respect at least, they are both weak and need a stronger, more dominant partner like Edward 8th also - (Camilla, Meghan, Mrs. Simpson). I think Charles has improved a lot since he married Camilla, his disastrous marriage to Diana (who I had a lot of affection for) did him a lot of harm. He’s a warmer, more likable character nowadays imo.
Members of the Royal Family sometimes fly on private jets, but they must be travelling for official Royal business in order to receive this benefit, and it is not guaranteed. The Queen reportedly sets a travel budget for the entire family each year, as these are taxpayer funds being used, and nowadays they fly scheduled flights as often as possible.

80 is pretty generous, there have been DOZENS of H&M threads deleted, I think we must easily be at 1000 - 1500 posts on this topic by now .

and that's just Jet

I actually did some searches for various usernames and "meghan" and it's quite startling .

Jet has about 250 posts with the word "meghan" in them but LT actually outperforms at 300+ .

I can't say much though as I have 184

And Marsh is at well over 200 as well but ... ... ... look ... look what came up ... ...

the reason for LT's high meghan post count is because he is always defending the shouty mouthed man child

Well you guess right for a change.

William and Kate boarding and Easyjet flight. That's the future king and queen... not an ex-prince and an actress

THats just silly a more serious question is, who actually benefited from the trip?

I can’t see that those kids being read a crappy poem based book will change their poverty ridden lives do you?

Better if they donated the 8 grand a nite hotel charge to them and the cost of the private jet and stayed at home
