I didn't understand BookWorm's comments about The BP cost renovations either, other than that they are eye-watering.
B/W is not to everyone's taste and many people aren't interested in the children, but what she's doing is trying to get to the truth. Others like her have been attacked, made ill and shut down by Stoat-backed entities. Her recent Crohns disease diagnosis could be partly down to stress as she's regularly attacked by trolls as was Sadie who was actually hospitalised.
BookWorm is right to be concerned about KC's PR spin. Posters have commented that he's a narcissist. Some on here have had bad experiences with narcs that they have shared. Narcs come in many forms and I'd guess that always being in the right and refusing to take advice are a common trait. Self-aggrandisement at the cost of the truth is another and we can see this ourselves in the rapid decline of PR integrity since HM's death. All narcs are dangerous and a narc with total power is very dangerous indeed, and I'm not deceived by Charles's fatherly demeanour. I don't think any of us realised the insidious tide that our late Queen was holding back merely by breathing.
The erosion of trust in the Monarchy is a big issue, and B/W is right on this too but this so far is the tip of the iceberg. Both C&C are imo knowingly bringing a large amount of dodgy baggage to the Throne which is being covered up. KC has festered over the Throne for so long and finally it's his, and nothing will stand in his way - not even the integrity of the Throne itself which I believe he knows is at risk but he comes first. The Stoat is the ultimate insider and knows it all, so we have a toxic dance where No Comment is perceived as strength and control. The Stoats are not toast and have yet to get what they want, and KC knows it.
The truth about the children matters enormously as it closely involves our King and the Monarchy. Of course he's covered it up, but thankfully William and Catherine are in the clear here.
I hope KC doesn't manoeuvre PA out of Royal Lodge by removing from him the means to maintain it, thereby forcing him to break his lease. I don't know what the measures HM "set in stone" before her death to fund him were. "Wanker Andrew" or not is not the point. Of KC's 24 Million a year, 249,000, while a fortune to us here is pennies to the King. PA is a soft target and I don't like what's happening, and the reader comments are cheering Chuck on as showing leadership.
As long as
@LadyMuck and
@mardymare post Bookworm's videos I'll transcribe them. If I thought she was crazy I'd not bother, but I appreciate what she's doing as a South African on the other side of the world as she's a Monarchist like the rest of us here and that is what's motivating her. We seem to have friends everywhere, India, the States, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, France etc!
In the big picture and the scale of things, an odd comment about the Sovereign Grant doesn't matter. Otherwise like Tom Bower, she's not been wrong. Lady C is also trying to get to the truth but is far more cautious.
It's glaringly obvious that no intrepid journalist in the UK, one of our own, has been brave enough to compile a receipted dossier on the children and send it to Buckingham Palace. I think this is her last roll of the dice, as all her previous requests for transpsrency and an explanation have been stonewalled by BP. Well done B/W. Tom Bower came closest but was warned not to go there. This is the elephant in the room.
I hope BookWorm reads on here.
