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

Dismantling the country from within. So liberal teaching of global citizenship is paying off splendidly, hmm?

Or saving hundreds of millions and then making hundreds of millions more once Buckingham palace becomes a tourist attraction.

This! Have tourists pay to tour bucking bam palace, the queens chambers, etc. Kensington palace, balmoral, Windsor, all of it. If they think Stonehenge is a tourist attraction wait until people realize they can take selfies in the queens chambers at Sondringham

Buckingham Palace is already open to the public. Sandringham is private property and as properties go, pretty unlovable, and not convenient to London. Although I imagine if a republic is declared, the royals (not the UK government) would open it to the public to make money off it. Or flog it and it'd be converted into a hotel. But not relevant to the thread's topic.

If a republic is declared, there is no reason to think the royals would be left with any properties to open to the public

Sandringham and Balmoral are privately owned by the royals. The royals have clearly owned private assets. The crown jewels are state property, the private jewels you see the royals wear most of the time is privately owned. Same with various property. The UK becoming a republic isn't akin to tsarist Russia becoming a communist state. If a republic happens, it isn't going to confiscate all the royals' private assets just to make a point because that's not the kind of country the UK is. Some people clearly live in fantasy land. Perhaps like Megharry.

Yes, if the UK becomes a republic, it would be like Russia taking the wealth of the royalty. All of it. Like other penniless royals, they would all have to go live somewhere else. They wouldn't just go home and live out their lives.

You're so confident, aren't you? But this bad fanfic is really getting off topic, especially when we have a much better real life story going on.

Rubs hands gleefully. I can picture it. Miss Meghan of Montecito plotting every step of this high speed drama to keep herself relevant and in the papers, manipulating the paranoia of her dimwit husband who's never gotten over his mother's death 25 years ago. Maybe she even organized it to keep her husband's attention on her as the marriage is based on Harry rescuing from the evil, nasty presses. But the risk is that if the press loses interest in Meghan, so will Harry as she will no longer need to be saved? Harry clearly has a fixation with the damsel in distress. Hmm. Intriguing thought.

Confident? I don't think it'll happen, because I don't think even the under-25 set is prepared to make it happen. Sure, I could be wrong. But I just don't see it.

As for poor Harry and poor Meghan, woe are they! If they don't have something to be distressed about, they'll make it happen.

We're about to see a princeling grow up without media willing to ignore indiscretions and where everyone has a camera on them 24/7. What do you think the odds are the Louis makes it to 20 without being hated?

Harry was beloved because of (not in spite of) his indiscretions. He was beloved up and until he chose to leave. Louis will be fine. And beloved.

Sure! And she paid Gloria Steinem to give her an award! And the paparazzi, too, to follow them! And maybe her own mother. There's literally been not one attention ploy. They write, they work, they go out for dinner. You are the only types that call this attention getting. No one else who writes a book is an attention whor@, no one else who has a job in the limelight is. No one. Just Meghan and Harry.

lol- you think that the Tories or even Labour is going to actually act like the bolsheviks?? liek they are going to kidnap George and Louis and shoot them in an unmarked grave? Our extensive property rights in this country are a legacy from the English, the Windsors own things as private citizens, they cannot strip them of privately owned mansions. Even in France and Germany- countries that no longer support royalty or have a political role for their nobility- allow their former nobility to hold onto their private property and their titles. There is even a dubetant ball in NYC for people who are listed in the German equivalent of debretts, as ridiculous as that is! You cannot strip privately help property from people without some insane violent revolution and even if the UK is dissolved, I doubt that will happen.

You are pretty sure they are lying and...
Pretty sure they paid paparazzi to do this.
Questioning the scene, the time, the actions.
Accusing them of attention getting.
Blaming one or the other for extending a narrative.

NYPD is likely to downplay anything that makes them look bad, so remember that.
Looks like most people already have a narrative about them that they need to fulfill, regardless of what went on. So stupud, this binary team thing people choose to engage in. Everyone keeps saying they are inconsequential, yet pop right up everywhere to keep saying it.

Right.

They are inconsequential, when you get down to it. Their purpose is no more than to provide amusement for us. For that is what they have become, modern day jesters.

The reason why some of us like to read about H&M is because it's like watching a soap opera. The range of emotions, behaviors, hypocrisies, ironies and cluelessness on display, all set against a backdrop of wealth and privilege, is a real life reality show. I do no more than reading a few headlines every now and then and posting a few comments on here and I do it because it's fun to roll my eyes as I watch people act out their vanities like a modern day Greek drama, although the hidden tragedy is that the acting is sincere, at least on Harry's part.

Agree! So many trashy comments here. Post-Trump ...Americans equal trash.

Daily Mail's readers hate them, so no, they wouldn't publish anything remotely sympathetic.

Eh, British comments on Daily Mail articles about these two are much trashier.

This is making NYC look like a third world country. If I was NY officials I would be clapping back, terrible for tourism if they allow this to seem plausible.

No one actually believes this happened.

For some reason yesterday in NYC, a week and a half after the media blitz of the coronation and in the midst of Harry's lawsuit about increased security ... the paparazzi, who basically leave Harry and Meghan alone in California to go to a sushi restaurant on Sunday and a Lakers game a few weeks ago or on a hike or to the airport multiple times, go totally BERSERK chasing them on a "relentless pursuit, lasting over two hours" through the streets of NYC?

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."

Singh estimated that the entire journey lasted 10 minutes.

I guess the catastrophic 2 hour car chase was before that, from the venue to the police station.

+1 it seems like h&m choice to let the "chase" continue for that long made it very dangerous for pedestrians and others who did not have their level of protection.

exactly what I was thinking. Especially if, as a Pp claims, the paps were from an agency that was hired by Harry and Meghan themselves
