I don't eat chicken, and the EU at least have a deal with Canada, unlike the UK.

Re: Harry and Meghan to step back as senior royals
Technically they have agreed not to use the HRH style, they’re not being stripped of them (which would be a very punitive move on the Queen’s part and would deepen the crisis rather than assuaging it).

Re: Harry and Meghan to step back as senior royals
Are we really meant to believe that Meghan's 2 recent visits to non-white, non-male organisations wasn't because of her royal connections?

She is going to be constantly trading on the connections. That is what I really object to. If they genuinely wanted to step back from the "limelight", then fair enough. But on her part, that's never going to happen.

Crisis? Not really. Global warming is a crisis. The Royal family are a boring irrelevance and I don't know us/the media obsess over them. Maybe they just don't like the way thing are going in the UK, fair enough, let them go. Many other young people might follow suit and leave the pensioners to their tabloids.

Agreed.

Well, the visit to Rwanda in February 2016, four months before she started seeing Harry, wasn't because of her "royal connections"...

And in 2014 (two years before she met H), she became an Advocate for Political Participation and Leadership for the women's agency of the United Nations.

Strange that on the one hand allegedly wanting to avoid royal type duties, but on the other seeming to want to do a lot of those sorts of things.
Why would anybody in Rwanda have known that she appeared in a TV series?

My understanding is the TV set has gone global since it's invention.

Their priority was having a TV and watching a US English language TV series over having clean water? Yeah right, although it wouldn't be completely surprising. She was there as Ms A. N Other. The two recent Canadian appearances were solely due to her acquired royal connections. Any future appearances, along with the publicity will also be due to that. She doesn't do anything concrete, other than promote herself.

The Rwanda visit was just as Ms A. N. Other and after any actual work had been done. That is set out in the article by the charity itself.
Quote:
|
While visiting a school in Rwanda in February 2016, she taught students to paint with watercolours using water from a newly-installed pipeline in their community.
|
Her words form the article.
Quote:
|
Access to clean water in a community keeps young girls in school, because they aren't walking hours each day to source water for their families. It allows women to invest in their own businesses and community.
|
Forever racist and sexist.
Her own words again, reported by the BBC.
Quote:
|
On the pair's first official overseas tour last year with their son, Archie, the Duchess of Sussex told teenage girls in a deprived part of South Africa that she was with them "as a woman of colour and as your sister".
|
Reported by the BBC based upon actual facts.
Quote:
The Sussexes' new charity is expected to be global, linked to Africa and the US, rather than domestic - and will have a commitment to female empowerment.
It was revealed in December the couple had made an application to trademark their Sussex Royal brand across a string of items including books, calendars, clothing, charitable fundraising, education and social care services.
|
She is the one still seeking publicity and attention. Hardly a case of wanting to step back from the limelight. 
Quote:
|
Both Prince Harry and Meghan have said they are interested in continuing with their charity work, with the duchess visiting two Vancouver-based women's organisations this week.
|
Quote:
|
On Tuesday she visited a charity in Vancouver which campaigns for teenage girls living in poverty.Justice for Girls said Meghan visited to "discuss climate justice for girls and the rights of indigenous peoples".
|
As if those those don't affect white males.
Endless hypocrisy from her and her supporters.
