Were Putin to arrange the offing of William and his children, then Harry would be next in line, Meghan would be Queen in waiting and Archie would eventually become Prince of Wales.

"No shit" I just heard someone say.

It’s the monarchy bit that’s preposterous, not his skin colour.

Nobody has suggested that Archie's skin colour is preposterous. The monarchy is not as preposterous as you suggest. Charlie Farley is preposterous, but the institution provides constitutional stability.

Ditto, I think I even mentioned that at the time [on here].

Anyway, here goes, not particularly anti Royal but they've failed at the job over the last 30 or so years. Its well paid, not particularly tough and has plenty of fringe benefits . So like anyone who doesn't deliver the goods they should be on their last warning. At least they could trim it all own in terms of budget and people by 80%.

As for the Kings speech it's not his speech it's the Govts. You could tell he didn't believe anything he was being forced to say about climate u turns. Coupled with all the ludicrous ceremony, and stupid clothes it's an incredible waste of time and money that this country should have dumped decades ago. Could have bought a few dialysis machines for the cost.

Meanwhile, this from last year ;

More recent figures for the contribution to the UK economy rise as high as £2.5bn per year, either way, the country makes quite a profit out of them overall.

As to 1p per day, well thats £3.65 per year, a little higher than 77p or £1.29, but still pretty insignificant, it wouldnt even get you a pint of beer these days.

Certainly he named them but he didn't 'shame' them did he?

I watched "Suits" for years -Megan was an actor there. I did not query her race for years.

When she married Harry, her bum was significantly reduced. Then, I found out she is half black. I thought she was South African - Zulu women have a condition called "Steatopygia", two watermelons as bum cheeks. Then by accident ,I found Megan is 43% Nigerian.

It is not uncommon for black babies to be born white. It takes time for melanin to kick in, more so in Nigerians.

Curiosity killed the cat

He did not, and has he noted, without evidence (and context), its all meaingless hearsay.

It is not racist to be curious.

As somebody said they might have whether the baby will have ginger hair --gingerhairphobia?
