    meghan is an inspirational woman who has had to put up with a hell of a lot, especially from possibly the most racist publications to ever exist, in the form of the likes of the DM ETC.

    poor kate deserves much better then being tied to the RF and if billy was anyway a decent man he would do what harry did and get himself and his family away as fast and as far as they can.

    I'm very highly educated. I know words, i have the best words, nobody has better words then me.

    And an actual iconic character... Big suze. Can't wait to hear how she's actually a bigot and the gutter press paid for peep show etc



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,338 ✭✭✭✭jm08


    You're really into the conspiracy theories at this stage.

    Just so you know, Sophie Winkleman's husband is something like 50th in line to the throne, used be a fashion model and is now a financial analyst with JP Morgan. In other words, a minor royal who has to earn his own living and him and his wife Sophie isn't beholden to KCIII to keep afloat (unlike his father who is).



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,338 ✭✭✭✭jm08


    Here is a bit of the list. Alison Corfield (less than a month)

    Hannah Cockburn

    Rebecca Priestley

    Sophie Agnew (assistant private sec) Let go in 2022

    Catherine Quinn quit 2019

    Nathalie Barrows (assistant private sec) 2017

    Rebecca Reason up to 2017 for 10 years when Kate was mostly pregnant / child minding and not really working for RF.

    -------

    I didn't know that Kate Middleton wanted people to call her Catherine. Surprised the gutter press have not publicised that.

    This is getting rather petty, comparing Catherine’s treatment of people working for her - or maybe I should say “with her” - with Meghan, who has form. It’s well known that Meghan was a nightmare to work for. I seem to recall some of those that did called themselves something like the “Sussexes Survivors”. One day, the investigation into Meghan’s treatment of staff will surface - even if it’s long after we’ve all shuttled off this mortal coil.

    Archewell has a staff churn rate that would frighten any HR department (yes, I’m old enough that I remember it being the Personnel department, then Human Resources, now they report to the Chief People Officer. Give me strength, FFS!)

    Actually, that has prompted a thought. As we know, Harry is the Chief Impact Officer for BetterUp. That makes him “CHIMPO”. Is that a clap back to that idiot Danny Baker?

    Catherine has purpose, and that translate into helping others and championing initiatives Meghan also has purpose It’s self promotion, self aggrandisement, self centredness, self praise. It’s all about her

    I think they don't even need to release the report since we've been watching bullying happening in real time.

    Yep- “Self” vs “Others” - it is that simple.

    Kate has taken a few knocks to get to where she is- but she never appeared like she was “trying too hard”- she’s always appeared natural - and of course dutiful - it was always about the people -these days she just “owns it” - she has presence, experience, rank of course but she’s turned out very well- totally genuine.

    Meaghan- a huge lack of self confidence surprisingly enough when it came to public appearances- way too self conscious and as a result, I think morphed into a controlling behaviour - it was never about the event, only about how she was portrayed- you can’t control the uncontrollable which is the British press- you’ve got to just push on - ask Princess Anne- a fcking giant of a person these days- she took dogs abuse from the press back in the day but these days she’s seen as a powerhouse of good sense and a terribly hard worker- you don’t see bad articles about princess Anne because she’s exactly how the British want their royal women to be - tough but caring, somewhat aloof but hard working - it’s not that difficult really and the rewards are a pretty damn good life it has to be said.

    Meaghan was not interested in a life of duty - that’s fine, but she took Harry away from that life and I don’t think he’s surviving very well - she’s stripped all the good out of him and he’s become a woke puppet and a grumpy old man

    This is a worthwhile video which demomstrates the hypocrisy of the gutter press (and media). Interesting to hear one of the great defenders of the Royal Family commenting that they have a dodgy record on racism! As for Jeremy Vine - LOL.

    Ok so The Spectator is an acceptable source for you. Good to know. Now you can stop decrying them when others quote them. . You slid into my DMs to debate that the Spectator was not a valid source of info over Uvlade after you got banned from this thread about a year ago, trying to continue the debate, until I had to ask you to stop messaging me. But now you are quoting them as a soure to back up your point of view, back to me. You are a hyprocrite of the higest order.

    Loving the Spectator references after you derided them as trash. Thanks. You have confirmed exactly what I have thought of your posts.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 368 ✭✭backwards_man


    No its not Kate. You are a small minded person who uses a moniker to belittle a woman who has done nothing to you. Thanks for showing us who you are. The polite thing to do is call someone by their requested name. I bet you struggle with preferred pronouns too, out of choice. Good to know.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 368 ✭✭backwards_man


    So the daily mail is now your valid source of info. And you derided everyone else on this tread for quoting them as a source. Seems you get your info from the same source. Great to know.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,566 ✭✭✭✭end of the road



    correct it's actually katzo.

    generally i will do pronouns yes but i will not doff the cap to someone because.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 368 ✭✭backwards_man


    I am away on vacation, well derserved after a terribly difficult year so I will come back to this post but you have clearly quoted most of my own previous post, bizzarly in a counter argument to your own ridicilous post that Catherine had 5 PS in 6 years.. So thanks for validating my retort to your BS. but let me respond on one straight away Sophie Agnew has never been assistant PS to Catherine. Remember your claim what that Catherine had 5 PS in 6 years. Name and date them please.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 368 ✭✭backwards_man


    Thats not how it works. You dont get to pick and chose whose names you use. It disrespectful and you know it. I am astonished you posted that. its not doffing the cap to call someone by their name. As a society we are way past using names as a derogatory go undermine people we dont like.

    Well deserved for this amazing child. Terrible family background.

    An end of year review from the Spectator on Harry and Meghan. Guardian readers may take a slightly different review

    I’ve watched a few Meghan Markle speeches/interviews on YT and it’s amazing how someone can use so many words and say so very little.

    Shes seems to speak exclusively in bland, generalities that are littered with buzzwords and ultimately all of it self serving. Her interview with Larry King is a great example.

    You would think that a career in politics would beckon but I don’t think she has the work ethic to put in the hard yards to be a success.

    She has gotten to where she is by marrying a prince and then trashing his family. That doesn’t involve any talent or transferrable skills. I don’t think she has any other irons in the fire bar the impending divorce.

    As for Harry well he’s clearly not too bright and was an easy mark for a social climber like Meghan.

    Summary of treatment of Prince Harry & Meghan by the British Press. ''Its a huge victory for Prince Harry, and its not over yet''. Daily Mail/Sun/Express readers by take a different view!

    As you thought the Larry King interview was an example of word salad etc, I thought you might enjoy this. If you've not heard or seen Martin before, he's got a quirky presentation style but his analysis is spot on




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,523 ✭✭✭lee_baby_simms



    “we embrace the moment of now to create a better tomorrow”

    That’s the kind of trite, meaningless stuff I’m talking about.

    lol, that video is spot on. She’s just very unimpressive to me. I’m not trying to be mean but if she has any discernible talent or charm then she’s not showing it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 731 ✭✭✭Carol25


    I agree re Meghan saying very little and using many words to to this. Tried to listen to her podcast before, Archetypes and turned it off after a few mins as I found it was just meaningless time filling talk. However I do think if she had speech writers, she does have a certain presence and good delivery skills when public speaking.

    Unfortunately many politicians nowadays are career politicians who say a whole lot of nothing to avoid rattling any cages.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,789 ✭✭✭maebee


    It was a major struggle to listen to this to the end. She is one massive narcissist. Her ramblings made no sense whatsoever. It was all about herself. She kept saying that she did this and she did that. I still don't know what she did. Her jealousy came across very strong in the Oprah interview. I suspect that it will all in in tears for Harry.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,338 ✭✭✭✭jm08


    Martin's deadpan delivery is hilarious. Going on what he claims to do, Meghan Markle must be the most influential person in the world.

    (To save you the bother of trying to find out what that means, he claims to analyse the speeches of influential people. He has about a million videos on Meghan Markle). Other lucky people to get the treatment are Oprah, Margot Robbie/Barbie, Obama and Justin Trudeau, Will Smith and Jada Pickett, but Meghan gets the most analysis.

    The ''so-called'' social, political activist Gloria Steinem seems to be in his sights as well because Meghan mentioned that she was a friend.

    I see a bit of a trend here from this bloke and his opinions. He thinks Meghan's tries to be relatable but fails, but Kate Middleton is very relatable when she speaks. I'm scratching my head on that one.

    I'd love for him to do an analysis on James O'Brien. Should be fun.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,566 ✭✭✭✭end of the road


    she didn't trash harry's family, nor did harry.

    they simply spoke the truth about them and the family did the rest themselves.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,566 ✭✭✭✭end of the road



    it's absolutely how it works, i can call her by her name if i want which is what i am doing.

    i have no obligation to respect her or any members of the rf if i choose not to.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,566 ✭✭✭✭end of the road



    for her to fit the diagnosis of being a narcissist, she would need to fit a number of trates.

    she does not meet a sufficient amount, if any, to be classed as a narcissist, therefore your diagnosis is bogus.

    i don't know how much of the thread you have read back through, but this was discussed plenty early on and other posters have shown what i have stated to be the case.

    Kamala Harris is another word salad expert, although her speeches tend to just to be time filling waffle as opposed to long rambling passages about how amazing she is.

    If you listened to Martin's theories, all speakers talk about themselves to make themselves relatable to their audience. He does a similar analysis on Obama trying to relate to a woman's group (i.e., he talked about trick and treating with his daughters as an example. If he was speaking to a group of steel workers, he probably wouldn't talk about that).

    If you don't know what she did after listening to her saying it, you were not listening (probably looking for her to say something that reinforced your opinion of her and were unable to find it).
