Prince Harry today faced criticism after he appeared to take a swipe at the British Empire by saying the history of the Commonwealth 'must be acknowledged', even if it's 'uncomfortable'. The Duke of Sussex, 35, made the comment as he joined wife Meghan Markle, 38, for a video call with young leaders from the Queen's Commonwealth Trust last week that was made public today. As part of the discussion on 'justice and equal rights', Harry said the Commonwealth needs to follow others who have 'acknowledged the past' and are 'trying to right their wrongs', and also admitted to having his own 'unconscious bias'.

Charles should continue their allowance only on the condition that they move to deepest, darkest Africa (or Tibet), preferably away from social media.

Time for the Queen to cancel all royal titles for both of these morons. Harry Markle needs to remove the ring through his scrotum. "Princess Meghan" was a tight leash on him.

Is Harry willing to put his money where his mouth is? Maybe he doesn't think its "racism" when you enslave people with the same blood as himself in their veins? The Irish slave trade began when 30,000 Irish prisoners were sold as slaves to the New World. The King James I Proclamation of 1625 required Irish political prisoners be sent overseas and sold to English settlers in the West Indies. By the mid 1600s, the Irish were the main slaves sold to Antigua and Montserrat. At that time, 70% of the total population of Montserrat were Irish slaves. From 1641 to 1652, over 500,000 Irish were killed by the English and another 300,000 were sold as slaves. They were not voluntary "indentured servants." Ireland’s population fell from about 1,500,000 to 600,000 in one single decade.
Those first 30,000 predate the African slave trade. So, even though there has been an "apology" for the Irish genocide called "The Potato Famine" (that didn't occur until 1845,) it didn't address the Irish slave trade.
If apologies and reparations are going to be handed out to those England has wronged, your wife's family can go to the back of the line.

I would like to use this opportunity to take a knee and apologize to Reverend Jerry Falwell. I criticized him for trying to moralize unbelievers. Compared to these woke morality police, Rev. Falwell was a moderate.

Weren’t the dynamic duo on probation for a year beginning March 31, 2020? Some of Harry’s titles on hold for that period instead of being snipped immediately? He is really pushing the envelope. The Queen has been very kind. So far. But she is strong. And she is the Queen.
This should be interesting for us; painful for her as grandmother and monarch.

PS. It is my guess that if the Duke of Windsor were still alive, he’d be counseling Harry against ALL of this. He knew what it was like to live in exile. That the bloom goes off the royal rose when the stem has been cut… And Meghan doesn’t even have Wallis’s class.

After the Sussexes stepped down as a senior working royals, Harry had to leave his role as Commonwealth Youth Ambassador. But he and Meghan retained their posts as president and vice-president of the Queen's Commonwealth Trust.
That should be ended as well.

Harry has been suffering from massive mental illness since his mother died.
And it has only gotten worse since he got involved with his manipulative shrew of a wife.
I can only pity him. He is too stupid and delusional and mentally unstable to do anything on his own. Everything he says and does is because Meghan is pulling the strings like a big puppet master!!!!!

Next the P-whipped guy living in someone else’s house in LA will be calling for the removal of the British Royal Family, as they are the descendants of Kings and Queens of the old British Empire where slavery was allowed to exist, before the British Empire abolished slavery in the early 1800’s with the Royal Navy enforcing that decision along the West African Coast and across the Atlantic Ocean.

Second sonism. Hits royal families and families of wealth. And Charles wasn’t much of a father. Too busy following “Camiller” around like a panting dog crossed with a teenaged boy. Not a family man and a little too wussy to father boys.

Bless his heart, he may be brain damaged. Surely had MY family aided and abetted the Nazi regime, I could have found the courage to keep my big fat mouth shut!! Just read an article how Adolph Hitler had his eye on Edward VIII to lead the puppet Great Britain after the Third Reich conquest, bringing along that detestable Mrs. Simpson also. As if!!

Waiting for Harry to refuse further money from Charles as his income is derived from confiscated land now known as the Duchy of Cornwall.
I'll be waiting a long time. Harry couldn't buy toilet paper if it weren't for Charles.

This is the find hand , claw? of Sparkle Farkle Markle at work. Will The Duke ever grow up ? Will the Dukette ever give up?

How far back shall we go? The Celts weren't crazy about Roman occupation of the fair island, or the Anglo Saxons arriving. Vikings raids on England certainly should be apologized for by now. And the Norman Conquest of England upended a lot of teacups for the Anglo Saxons. Who should apologize to whom?

By all means, let's acknowledge the legacy of the British Empire. Let's compare the former British colonies, the U.S.A., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, India, Jamaica, British Virgin Islands, et al. with the former colonies of Spain, France, Portugal as well as with the enslaved nations subjugated by the Soviet Union and the People's "Republic" of China.

The Commonwealth as well as other governments are well aware of their past short comings. It's why governments have bent over backwards to make life better for everyone. It's up to people to take advantage of the opportunities presented to them. If they don't, then their life outcome is on them.

The royal family is in big trouble partly because of the atrocious behavior of Charles and now Andrew. Harry’s weird marriage, shady fatherhood and move out of Britain could mean he has his own secrets to disguise with the cover of frivolous speculative gossip. A black wife and bi-racial baby could provide even more armor for a royal reputation in the days of BLM.

#17,#33- Although there is public knowledge and admission of Prince Harry’s battle with depression, what has happened to him may not be due to lack of intellect, but due to being a particularly vulnerable soul. He is on record as having expressed his love for children and hopes for a family of his own. Watching is brother and sister-in-law being blessed with three lovely children, his personal friends marrying, and his personal inability to find a suitable spouse among England’s young women very likely compounded his depression, his loneliness, his sense of desolation.
Along came Meghan who, according to tabloids, sought an introduction to Prince Harry through a mutual British friend, and Meghan’s charms charmed him to the point of posthaste matrimony by royal standards. People who are vulnerable may be easily programmed, as evidenced through reading about parents who lost children to cults and, if fortunate enough to retrieve them, to have to go through deprogramming their children. Most certainly there is the possibility that Prince Harry is a willing participant, but considering his history of having been a very sensitive child and the lifestyle and horrific manner in which his mother lost her life suggests “other influences” need to be considered—especially the influence of depression which can lead some people to suicide.

The Markles, sometimes known as Woke and Joke, would be well advised to avoid tunnels henceforth, and probably also the air travel they so enjoy (but scold the rest of us for using).
