I don't think that's true now that they're not royal. One of the reports I saw about this incident mentioned that a recent court case determined Harry cannot pay for police protection while he's in England anymore, and he's appealing that decision. So they don't get the royal treatment, pun intended, which would make them even more of a target because from what I can tell British people hate Meghan even more than DCUMers.


I think it's more split. At least among young people, it's more they're not liked, but the rest of the royals are viewed in an even more negative light. Under 50 have a majority opposed to monarchy, and under 25 flat out prefer a republic


They need to go the way of the rest of the European monarchies. They have them, but just barely and they're more socialites than anything. Or they can follow Germany and completely ditch them.


One of the fascinating "ifs" of history is if the Kaiser had not been forced to abdicate at end of WWII, would there have been a Hitler, Holocaust, and WWII.

Now this I truly believe. She creates the drama and drinks it in. I don't like her behavior, but as a casual observer it's incredible that she has no shame. Like almost inhuman levels of artifice and climbing, and discarding of people, and lacking validation for her self-aggrandizing. She looks like a fool and a liar and keeps going with a deranged smile! She's a psychological case study come to life.

Account from the taxi driver who picked them up at a police station and took them to where they were staying:


"A taxi driver who picked up Harry, Meghan and her mother Doria Ragland outside the New York City Police Department's 19th precinct at around 11pm local time on Tuesday said they were in his car around 10 minutes.

Sukhcharn Singh told The Washington Post: "I don't think I would call it a chase. I never felt like I was in danger.

"It wasn't like a car chase in a movie. They were quiet and seemed scared but it's New York - it's safe."

Mr Singh also said his car was purused by two vehicles - a black Honda Accord and an older gray Honda CR-V.

"They kept following us and were coming next to the car. They took pictures as we stopped and were filming us."

Mr Singh also said he got the impression from the Sussexes that they had already been pursued by paparazzi before they got in his car."


So it was a 10-minute cab ride where a couple of Honda drivers took photos? Too funny if true!

All and I mean ALL the "news" is from their spokesperson. Not the media not the police.


Who said it was a "high speed" chase?

Eric Adam seemed to think so.

This story does not pass the sniff sense. A 2-he car chase around NYC at 10pm on a Saturday night, what??


Really missing Kimmel and Colbert right now. They'd have a field day with this one.

I thought liberals liked Poor Harry and Poor Meghan. I thought it was conservatives who weren't impressed by her? I mean, them?

Oh dear. No chase? So disappointing.

Even liberals won't tolerate an uppity black woman.

The idea that you could have a 2 hour car chase in NYC would be irresistible to comedians, especially with celebs involved. Colbert's show is based in NYC. He'd probably try to replicate it.

BBC News:
"There was then a plan to use a New York taxi, with a yellow cab flagged down and Harry, Meghan, Ms Ragland and a security officer getting inside.
But the vehicle and its occupants were spotted by photographers and they reverted to their own security vehicles.
Cab driver Sukhcharn Singh, who goes by the name Sunny, told the BBC he picked up the four passengers on 67th Street between Lexington Avenue and 3rd Avenue.
"A security guard hailed me, next thing you know Prince Harry and his wife were hopping into my cab," he said.
"As we went a block, we got blocked by a garbage truck and all of a sudden paparazzi came and started taking pictures. They were just about to give me the location of where they were going to go but then they told me to circle back to the precinct."
He said they were "nice people" who "looked nervous".
He said he thought claims of a "near catastrophic chase" might have been exaggerated, adding that he did not think the paparazzi were being "aggressive".
"New York is the safest place to be - there's police stations, cops on every corner," he said.
"[The paparazzi] were behind us... they kept their distance."
The passengers paid $50 for the 10-minute journey, he added.
Mr Singh told the Washington Post he picked the couple up at 23:00 local time before returning them to the police station at the request of the security guard."

No more a fool or a faker than King Charles and the rest of the raggedy colonizer bunch. When Kate is making vapid appearances with her fake smiles are you equally bothered?
