There are significant minorities wi th in commonwealth governments that want to stay. Also, many are grateful Britain was a far better colonial power than most and did a good job investing in infrastructure and democracy.

It is not that commonwealth citizens want nothing to do with them - many of us want to retain the cultural ties but in a grown up type way - we have grown up and left home but still want to come and visit for a cup of tea and scones.


Quite a bit of delusional white washing…….



How so?

Not everyone within commonwealth countries wants to cut ties but a small majority do. Many don’t want to let go of their cultural heritage altogether.

How is this delusional?

He will do none of those things. In regards to Beatrice and Eugenie (the correct name) he literally cannot. They are princesses by birth, born the grandchildren of a sovreign through the male line.


DP. Just as a side comment, the other people PP mentions - Duke of Gloucester, Duke of Kent - are also princes by birth. They are also grandsons of a monarch (George V). Their titles won’t be revoked either, although they probably will be kicked out of their housing.


No ones titles will be revoked and no ones housing and income will be removed. That’s not how the British monarchy works. They all will be well taken care of. , including Andy. Even the Queen’s dresser has a house for life at Windsor and permission for a 3 book deal.

The RF needs to make changes going forward to keep with the times, Charles knows what he has to do.

A tone deaf one? Looks like a 100 of his staff received notice of possible termination during the royal mourning period.

Some of us don’t live our lives on DCUM’s entertainment thread. And obviously the 100 down sized staff do care. Any competent institution should have a better process for downsizing staff so it doesn’t become a reputational risk.

Don't be dense. They would have been planning for this a long while. It came as a shock to know one. You don't care about any of these people you just want another reason to pick and whine.

Its “no one”, not “know one.” And where is the evidence that this had been planned and communicated for a long time? If it had been, the public workers union probably wouldn’t have been so quick to denounce the layoffs. There are experts who manage layoffs so they don’t become problems.

If you work for someone 96 years old what do you think will happen? Honestly. Your faux outrage is lame.

Agree the timing shows really bad judgment but no one would describe The Firm as a competent organization. Just wait as these 100 staff face an 80% increase on their energy bills next month on top of UK inflation with no pay check. Cue up story of dedicated old staff eating cat food in a small flat without heat or ther staffers deciding to sell stories to pay their bills.

DP. It is not. Many posters simply do not understand the topic on which they are commenting.

They are grace and favor apartments and will likely continue to be used by family until they die.

Charles is not generous and will get rid of as many as he can.


Credible British media know that Sophie is hugely popular with her patronages and is needed for that work.
Sophie was close to the Queen and the Princess Royal likes her as well.
The royal family does not operate in the way of Americans, so it would be impossible for Sophie to change set inheritances.

Your sources seem off, and you may want to fact check your comments with them.

Not delusional according to Baroness Patricia Scotland, the secretary-general of the Commonwealth Nations. Her recent comments reflect what the PP said.

Your doubling down does not do what you think it does.
