The RF has always protected its own
They don't want the association, even if remotely, of a scandal, I think. The bullying scandal of No6 wife will probably never see the light of day. Sadly.
Covering up and "smoothing over" has always been the norm. The sugaz war cry is " what about andrew?."..but my guess is that Hazno and his wife have also been massively protected under the RF umbrella.
The RF need to cut all of the deadwood loose, in my opinion. I applaud William for donating to Invictus, because they have been very let down by his brother. Is he going to donate a £3m to elephants, too? Where will this end?
Sadly, I think the RF loyalty to the word "royal" will backfire. People want loyalty to the "monarchy"; not to people who remained friends with paedophiles....or who pissed all over our country by calling us racists. The whole "job description" for the royals is to promote our brand - promote the UK and the Commonwealth, and preserve our history and buildings. Not to make us a worldwide laughing stock.
They need to be loyal to us. The UK and all the Commonwealth.
When the RF do it well, they are worth every penny. I personally support them, but they need to separate "Royal" from " the Firm" They need to rid themselves of the disloyals.
There are two Princes who have not acted with the decorum, dignity and respect for our country that we all expect.
The current RF need to recognise this and get rid of them. "much loved family members" but no longer part of the monarchy. Ever.
My opinions only. Other recollections may vary.
Brilliant post.
I was proud of what I saw as RF stoicism and dignity and thought they had a PLAN. But now I think it's in fact paralysis and an unwillingness or ability to deal with the malevolent phenomenon of the Suxxeses. The RF have allowed themselves to become victims just like the Suxxesses see themselves as victims. Picked on, trolled, blackmailed and humiliated. I can't ever remember the RF being victims before, bad PR yes, like when Diana died but never anything like this.
It's a sick joke that our Queen, an old bereaved lady who's faithfully served her country all her life, should be forced to "lawyer up" against the soon-to-be-released lying "Memoir" of her vicious and dangerous grandson. How has it come to this? Why is Noballs allowed to attack them? Simple questions and we deserve an answer.
We here on Tattle waited and waited as attack after attack and piss-take after piss-take was visited on the Monarchy, hoping month after month that the RF would do the one thing that would render the Suzzxxes impotent - remove the titles, everything, the lot.
But it's business as usual and now there's speculation that these two psychos will barge their way over here using their baby as a lever...... A baby whose birth date, parents etc are unknown - but who is still in the Line of Succession alongside her equally invisible big brother a.k.a Gavin Gingras! The Palace should headline a firm No, instead of articles about how Palace officials might make Smeg feel "awkward" and invitations for Christmas. It's all bizarre and surreal.
That the Snarkles will spontaneously combust eventually will be no credit to the RF, who will have been even more damaged by the time this combustion happens.
Years ago the RF could have got away with sweeping the PA scandal under the carpet but not now. Ditto Minge and NoBalls. Everything's in the spotlight now and hiding PA at Balmoral avoiding papers doesn't look good. They need to deal with Andrew. Enduring what is dished out by Minge and NoBalls doesn't look good either. Now that they've been exposed as liars, thieves and traitors, there can be no excuse now for not neutralising them. But we are still waiting.
