Really, WGAS?
This is the first step to slimming down, if not removing the Royal Family.

Somehow recent events remind me of this Depeche Mode song
Sex jibe husband murders wife
Bomb blast victim fights for life
Girl Thirteen attacked with knife
Princess Di is wearing a new dress
Jet airliner shot from sky
Famine horror, millions die
Earthquake terror figures rise
Princes Di is wearing a new dress
You can't change the world
But you can change the facts
And when you change the facts
You change points of view
If you change points of view
You may change a vote
And when you change a vote
You may change the world
In black townships fires blaze
Prospects better premier says
Within sight are golden days
Princess Di is wearing a New Dress
You can't change the world
But you can change the facts
And when you change the facts
You change points of view
If you change points of view
You may change a vote
And when you change a vote
You may change the world

I am a staunch monarchist for very obvious reasons.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but I find it not the least bit surprising as 84 years ago Edward the VII chose wife over birthright and was pillorised over it. Although with the acceptance of Charles marrying a divorcee that is no longer a taboo, I wonder what else the likes of Piers Morgan finds so distasteful about Meghan?Originally posted by Stevie Wonder BoyComment

Umm I hope you're wrong. I'm of the opinion that they are doing this precisely to get out of the public eye and the resulting pressures and media lies. The press have (IMO) been truly awful about Megan and have inflated the "royal rift" story.Originally posted by Zigenare View Post
Let them be happy together, let's not have another Diana story unfolding. IIRC there were Fergie vs. Diana stories back in the day
Fair play and good luck to them!
EDIT: And that Piers Morgan linky above posted by SM rather underlines my point :-(Comment

I do think the way they've gone about it is potentially damaging to the monarchy.
I am not a massive royalist but I like having them around. I have huge respect for Her Mag and I think Will and Kate are the right people to continue the traditions but with a modern twist.
To not consult is poor form. To try and have the best of both worlds - sounds like they want to retain their titles but not do the work - is very poor form. To claim to be environmentally conscious while actively splitting their time between UK and US is hypocritical as I doubt they'll be in economy on some low cost airline. If they're going to be financially independent, then I guess that means they will be paying for their own security?
I like Harry, and I want to like Meghan, but there's something suss going on with those two that I'm not comfortable with.Comment
