This is cute, late but cute.

I guess we have Meghan’s social media guy that the Cambridges hired to thank for this.

Maybe. I'm just curious what they'll post. I mean...behind-the-scenes videos from their engagements?

They also changed their instagram handle from 'KensingtonRoyal' today to 'D&DofCambridge'. Which is interesting.

This is so cringeworthy. They have a full time videographer and this is the type of content they’re creating?



Maybe if it hadn’t taken a decade, it wouldn’t be as bad.

I mean everything they do they are mimicking H&M. They were barely on social media until Meghan around. I think a lot of people (including posters on here) don’t understand that different palaces=different households. And will take anything from any one palace as speaking for all of them. I.e. they don’t understand that Kensington is the Cambridges, Clarence House is Charles, etc.

Well, now we know why they hastily changed their Instagram jangle. The royals were given heads up on this story and he lives at KP with them.

Well the BRF make a lot of money for the British public. They're a huge net positive, economically.

The point of royals is tradition, pride, national identity. Kinda wish we had that. Instead we have athletes, actors, tech moguls. None of them represent tradition, national pride or identity. Just money.

This is so shady. I can’t believe they’re protecting these racist relics of colonial trash. And allowing them to live for free in Kensington palace.

Not really. All the palaces and associated tourism generates a lot of money for the UK. Ending the monarchy wouldn’t erase that—quite the contrary. The palaces that are currently used as private residences could become tourist destinations much like Versailles.

That's a nice talking point. But let's think about it for more than one second. Without a royal family, there would be no Trooping the Color, no more changing of the guard, indeed no more royal weddings or royal funerals. Etc.

If you are a transactional person who only thinks in dollar signs, then the royal family is a keeper.

You picked some bad examples. Each of those events cost tens of millions. Easily replaced by a national day not centered around one family and tourists go to England to see the palaces/castles not the royals. There’s no daily viewing of the Queen.

The UK lost billions in tourism revenue thanks to Covid, none of those costs were offset by having living royals in their palaces. It was compounded.

I thought it went without saying that 2020 was different. Sorry for making that assumption...

2020 is a great baseline to show royals don’t bring in money, palaces do and the UK has plenty of them.

If you're going to say that 2020 is the economy that we should be making decisions off of...

Goodbye working women. You belong at home.

Many things were different in 2020. Some of them will go back to the way things were and some won’t. Much like telework was suddenly accepted as an acceptable option, I think the monarchy will be accepted as a relic of the past.

Parliament can simply choose not to name a successor. That’s all it would take after Elizabeth’s reign ends. The monarchy’s grasp on power is more tenuous than you want to believe.
