And nobody is saying that the UK is “without fault”. Racists exist wherever human beings do.The difference is I haven't blindly said Ireland is without fault. Racism is as rife here as it is in the UK. It's not an opinion that they are racist nations, it's fact. Maybe it's not an overt issue, but it's embedded into every faction of life. Ireland does have a particular problem with sectarianism, but let's not get into the cause of Irelands problems, eh?
But to go from that to insisting (on the basis of no evidence whatsoever) that poor Meghan is only disliked because the UK is inherently racist is despicable. How fucking dare you?
We gave the woman a £35m wedding with a dress that cost more than most people’s houses. She got a free home, renovated to her specifications and a £1m wardrobe of clothes. 99% of the extensive media coverage was glowingly positive - she was on tea towels, biscuit tins, calendars and plates. Her ridiculous pretentions of “humanitarianism” were politely accepted without quibble - I‘m not sure we could have done more to welcome her, quite frankly.
But she threw it all back in our faces. Why? Because she refused to be held accountable for her own behaviour and went home in a huff. She was a publicly funded figure, a representative of the Queen, not a private individual and as such it is NOT acceptable to clear entire stands at Wimbledon for yourself, or make speeches about carbon footprints shortly before sneaking on to 3 private planes in as many weeks. It is not acceptable to speak to staff like shit or to make use of a foreign funded tour to a country of devastating violence in order to announce how hard done by YOU are.
Her behaviour has been quite disgraceful. That is why she is not liked.
But, hey, she’s slightly brown & that’s all you need to hold someone in high esteem, right? Unfortunately, we’re not racists here so best you move along now.
