Here ya go.
I've managed to work out how to do a letter on this bloody Mac thing.
Here is my first draft. I may not edit it, actually. The challenge now is to work out how to print the. bugger so I can post it.
Sir,
As a resident of the UK, I am growing increasingly concerned about the behaviour of your son, Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan.
The disgraceful ‘interview’ they gave on the Oprah Winfrey show has done terrible damage to the reputation of the British Royal family and the British people.
The incendiary comments they made in that show and in their many verbose announcements since, are, in my opinion, creating a huge racial divide. Instead of helping to stamp out racism, they are making the situation worse.
Their use of titles to make money for themselves and their use of the state of Delaware to register their charities in order to keep 95% of donations is a disgrace. This is not how we want our Royals to behave. We require dignity, decorum and honesty.
I understand it is difficult to balance ones Royal role with ones personal family life but Harry and Meghan have, to use a football term, brought the Royal Family and the British people into disrepute. They have us all branded as racists and have been allowed to get away with it. Their slur has affected all of us and how we are perceived throughout the world.
The continuation of the Monarchy is hanging in the balance and your popularity plummets further as long as the Duke & Duchess of Sussex are allowed to use their titles for self gain, and to continue their disrespectful attacks without punishment or consequences.
Their deliberate attempts to overshadow other Royals by timing their announcements is just mean and nasty, and not the way we want our Royals to behave.
The Duke and Duchess stated very publicly that they wished to step down as working Royals and their request to be ‘half-in/half-out’ was, quite rightly refused. If that decision was to be changed, there will be a huge outcry and many Royalists would no longer support you and the Monarchy because you will be seen to have given in to blackmail.
The Sussexes opted out and public opinion is that,
1] their titles should be taken away,
2] they should be removed from the line of succession and
3] the children should not become Prince and Princess when you accede the Throne. Or at the very least, there should be an official announcement from Her Majesty to make it abundantly clear that they are no longer Royal and anything they do is as private citizens.
This message has not been made clear enough. Their visit to New York City demonstrated that. During that visit they behaved as if they were on an official Royal engagement and were treated as if they still represented her Majesty. This cannot be allowed to continue.
Regarding the children, there is huge unrest about the secrecy regarding their birth. It has not gone unnoticed that there were no Doctor’s signatures on Archie’s birth announcement or that there was no traditional birth announcement for Lilibet.
Tradition dictates that persons in the line of succession must be ‘born of the body’ and not having the usual announcements signed by the Royal Physicians to confirm birth from the body raises suspicion, and we, your subjects demand transparency.
Also, we have only seen one photograph of Lilibet and a handful of pictures of Archie, all of which showed signs of possible photoshopping. Which only serves to create more suspicion and fuel conspiracy theories. The internet is full of speculation and questions about why everything regarding the children’s birth is veiled in secrecy. What are they - and you trying to hide?
Of course the children’s privacy is important, but while Harry and Meghan remain Duke and Duchess and the children retain the birthright to later become Prince and Princess, the public have a right to see, at least, some ‘official’ photographs.
As onlookers, we view the Royal Family’s lack of action against the treacherous behaviour displayed by the Sussexes as a weakness and our support for you is waning. Therefore it is time the Royal family dealt with this situation.
Had the Sussexes been true to their word and retired to America to live a private life disassociated from the British Royal family there would be no call for them to have titles taken away or to be removed from the line of succession.
As it is, they peddle misinformation whilst purporting to campaign against it. They demand top level security and are seen as money-grabbing, self-promoting ‘celebrities’ trading on the status of the institution and the people they appear to resent and despise.
I urge you to take notice of the mood of the British people if you wish to retain our support when you accede the Throne. The Sussexes must bear the consequences of their actions and be stripped of all titles and be removed from the line of succession.
