midnighter:I don't care about him and never heard of him until the dickhead posted that racist meme on twitter. What I am saying is that posting a monkey picture to depict a mixed race baby is a racist act. Simple.as ABC. It's not different from throwing banana at a Blackman. 2 Likes |

salford1: Stop talking out of emotions and check the background of the man before quoting me. I followed the whole thing very closely when it happened and this is incident is not an example of why British people are not racist, which is how Sassysure was using it. |

midnighter: It wouldn't have been racist had the man not known of the situation on ground about to explode. He knew British people hate Meghan. Comedians use comedy to pass messages along subtly. People reacted immediately. Some said he can't be paid with their money yet insulting a new born. Yes, he knew exactly what he did. He was just shocked that people didn't swallow the useless joke this time around. 2 Likes |

People can agree to disagree na. Afterall they don't know us. We are just homouring ourselves. They have all moved on. No need taking it personal |

sassysure: Wait a second. So you seriously believe that a radio broadcaster who has been commentating on football matches for decades deliberately posted a monkey picture of a black person just to make people laugh? Do you know him? He posts that monkey stuff every time something happens to wealthy people. The post had nothing to do with racism even though it was insensitive. Anyway my point was that the fact that Britain jumped to Meghans defence doesnt mean that she has not suffered racism. |

DexterousOne:True. He is also only stepping back a little as well. He is still a solid member of the royal family. The Royal family would reassess their wellbeing after one year and then decide on the next line of action for the family. They would be shuttling between their mansion in Vancouver and their home in the UK. 1 Like |

midnighter:What are u saying? He deliberately did that but was surprised it generated negativity. They do things like that deliberately. Anyway, it's a bygone. BBC sacked him. He apologised. Case closed. If he start working for them again is another case entirely but this time he will tread carefully. If he does so again, I'm sure Harry will sue is fking asss off. U don't know British people. Are they not the one that said Nigerian politicians are fantastically corrupt What sarcasm When u talk of sarcasm, meet a Briton. So that man knew what he did This is how they will stab u and yet air blow u at the same time. 2 Likes |

sassysure: He calls white people monkeys all the time. Why do you keep ignoring that fact? If you want racism to be taken seriously then call a spade a spade. Youre telling me about British people but do you think even a deliberately controversial right-wing British columnist like Piers Morgan or Katie Hopkins would come out and call somebody a monkey to her face? Its not everybody that is racist please...this is the problem with modern-day hypersensitivity that distracts from the main issue. Exactly like that thread with the guy who smacked his wife and people ignored the whole background of the story and rushed to call him a woman-beater. Thereby giving misogynists license to make fun of domestic violence victims. |

midnighter: The alternative was a monogenic marriage where he would marry the girl but she would not be Queen. It had never been done in Britain but people were willing to take that compromise with him. He disagreed and was seeking ways to get both the crown and the woman. When Parliament realized he was seeking outside support to strongarm them, they forced the issue. I never said he was not willing to abdicate. Parliament couldn't have made him do it if he didn't agree. What I'm saying is that although he eventually did abdicate, he would have gone with almost anything else that allowed his children to inherit. He was brave enough to confront Parliament on the issue. That's the only good thing I saw in him. |

Meghan's treatment by the tabloids is not primarily motivated by racism. Proof: Doria Ragland, Meghan's 63 year old black mum, is hardly ever attacked by the tabloids. When she is mentioned in the press, the comments are generally positive or neutral. She is more black than Meghan. The backlash against Meghan is caused by an apparent disrespect for the traditions of the royal family and the UK culture that she married into. There is racism in the UK, no doubt, but if a really black woman like Lupita Nyongo or Oluchi Onweagba married Harry and respected the royal traditions, I don't doubt that she would be regarded quite well by the majority of UK people. Only the most extreme racists would dislike her. 19 Likes 8 Shares |

Question Why did the royal family not defend Meghan in public? Answer Because the Queen and her 99cousins are also racist. You all can either believe that, or you can finally understand that Meghan might really have a problem with her attitude and demeanor that makes it difficult for people around her to like her enough to want to defend her. |
Re: Harry And Meghan Will No Longer Use Official Titles - Buckingham Palace by Nobody: 10:27pm On Jan 19, 2020 |
Seun:Yeah, at a point friends stopped inviting them.to elite dinners because of her "American" behaviour. She already stated she hate the old tradition. This is what got on the Britons nerves. Like I said, some said, she is trying to tell them how to live as they obviously have not been living before. "Oh how the nerve of her"! Stay around these people and go crazy. Already, it has gone political. Trust politicians to milk this to their benefits 2 Likes |

raybaba97: I knew there was something fishy about your comments so I decided not to type too much. Edward VIII proposed a morganatic marriage which would mean his wife and children wouldnt inherit any title and the Prime Minister and commonwealth blocked him and said that the British tradition wouldnt allow for such. He wanted to go on radio broadcast and ask the British people for permission to go ahead with the same morganatic marriage and the Prime Minister blocked him again and said that it wasnt proper for the King to use the public to undermine the cabinet. That was how the whole abdication stuff started. |
