This 100%. The RF should have acted the minute the 12 months were up.
Which is why, in my opinion, sometimes they, RF, deserve what they are getting. Reap what you sow etc
Which proves there was nothing binding, and the other party to the Sandringham Agreement, the Ho, wasn't even there. It will be retrospectively whatever they want, as in the RAVEC and police protection business in court now.
On this thread we've always had false press reports that we decided were Sussex PR or Scobie plants, like the articles claiming PC met the Flatpacks at the PJ. It's been difficult to tell the truth from spin, and people have said they'll only believe direct press releases from the Palace.
Is it sometimes optional then, like today with all the papers saying No Way Back For The Stoat? Is this the Palace view, voiced through the Telegraph and Times in a departure from the normal Palace spokesman?
If so why not say it directly instead of multiple papers saying the same thing?
Or does C not want the words to be directly attributable to him, preferring instead to say it through The Sun?
It's a way round it, not to own it.
