Why would he get any credit? That’s like me shouting that we can put a man on the moon, then NASA do it and me expecting to share in the glory!?! He hasn’t done anything I know of, in getting the vaccine made or rolled out, he is in no position of power to have any say over our economy too? Or am I wrong?

I don’t know how old rich people protecting pedophiles and being racist is even news. I’d have been surprised if they’d have even addressed the Andrew situation properly. I don’t particularly care but Megan and Harry are better off out than in

(and it was clearly his dad who made the black baby queries)

So the best way to tackle it is to have an interview with Oprah but not actually say who made this comment and leave everyone guessing?

Read my comment I guess? As @anon3368876 said a few posts ago there is much more newsworthy stuff

As long the royals keep protecting Andrew they aren’t worth the money they’re literally printed on. They’re dead to me

Yeah I’m not exactly a royalist myself either, they could all be gone tomorrow and I’d not lose much sleep.

I couldn’t stand them before all this. And I find the argument for keeping them because of tourism very week.

Bin the royal family!

I remember reading that they are not nearly as important to tourism as people think, and the idea that they bring in far more money than they cost the taxpayer was a myth.
I don’t have the time to find it right now, I’ll dig it out later.

The queen’s going to still be shooting grouse long passed 105. The only question is whether she’s going to make it over 110. Nails.

The fucking Loch Ness Monster is huge for tourism in Scotland, and it doesn’t even exist. I’m sure London would do fine with just the idea of the royal family.

aha that is wonderful

I thought she was stepping down after the elections in September? Not saying that the focus on the royals isn’t out of all proportion, but I don’t think Merkle is going today. Or at least no one seems to be mentioning this.

Joachim Löw has announced he’s stepping down after the Euros though, are they doing a job swap?
