I'm not a royalist, but when you see things laid out so incredibly clearly, as here, you have to have some sympathy for Harry & Meghan.

How do I change this 'custom title' thing then?
GQT has that effect.A lot of new people will be turning up to urban and leaving for exactly the same reason
I've never listened to it eitherI can't even listen to radio 4 without getting annoyed

you know what an actor does for a living, don't you?
sorry, this is just entry-grade sillyness - this is akin to that idiot who, when presented with the facial reconstruction of Richard III said 'how could anyone look at that face and think he was a tyrant?'.
you - and i - have absolutely no idea whatsover what this or that person we don't know is like in private, and we cannot know. i do know however that if junior staff in, say, Hollywood accused a male actor of bullying/intimidation, the idea that he couldn't possibly do it because he comes across so well in a heavily rehearsed interview would hold water here for precisely 0.00000000041 seconds.
Yes. The accusations were made internally in 2018 but the Palace sat on them until last week when I assume they realised how far Haz and Meg were going to go. No idea what the standard turnover of PAs is in the royal family but I would have thought it would take quite a lot for someone to throw in such a prestigious job.

I didn’t know you used to work for the Daily Mail...

i think its pretty much impossible to seperate these issues out - this is a long-brewing maelstrom of family dynamics that includes money, fear, offence, protectiveness, and all the rest. how one side percieves the other(s) determines how they react, what might be a harmless curiosty one week could be a racist insult the next. if you don't like someone you are less likely to be sympathetic to their views and actions, and much more likely to see anything they say or do as a slight aimed at you.

25 pages in The Daily Mail apparently. Ffs. It really is just a distraction from all the other shite that's going on in the world right now.
No, of course it isn't. But the fact they've not said anything themselves in the press would suggest the Palace paid them a decent wedge not to.
One thing that Morgan did actually get right this morning during his meltdown with Alex Beresford was the implication from Meghan that Archie didn't get a title because of his race. Even a lily white kid in his position wouldn't have been eligible for one constitutionally.
That really is vile. Fuck them.

Mr never-been-upstairs-at Maxwell's gaff's bullying sounds like it is on an even nastier level, squaring up to senior staff, driving his car through locked gates to avoid a 2 mile detour in Windsor (pissed, most likely) and so on. Been reported on and off for years, not a sniff of an investigation, yet now they're falling over themselves to investigate claims against Meghan, surely just a coincidence on the timings...

This is incorrect, as explained in detail to Sasaferrato yesterday.
Fair dos - I saw some constitution expert on the news earlier saying he wasn't eligible.

But again, we can recognize that without dismissing the bullying allegations out of hand.

He would have been once Brenda carked it - see Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie for evidence. Meghan's claim is that somebody was proposing that they would end that convention with Archie

DM have been doing pages and pages on what's wrong with meghan day after day for years. The thing I find most .. incomprehensible / depressing to think about is that they do this because people want it, they can fill their whole 'news' website with ten thousand stories about what Meghan did wrong and people click and it pays. What is it about this country that makes that the case is the depressing thing.

He currently isn't but would be after Brenda kicks the bucket. They were discussing changing rules so that he wouldn't be not refusing it to him at the moment.

Getting a job for the royals aint like getting one at your local pub is it? I thought those jobs were highly contended for (although tbf that could just be good PR that's got me thinking that). Point
is, people who have them jobs have cop or letting agent vibes. Bullying in the workplace isn't on but trying to do the mental gymnastics required to properly care about this in particular is too much for my wee peasant head

was it? i'm interested.
my understanding is that the non-granting of the title to the Sussex's son was entirely in accordance with the rules. there were then two stories - both from Harry, firstly that 'they are thinking about it' with the 'they' not being specified and the story not reappearing, and then that they (the sussex's) didn't want him to be titled Prince anyway.
i don't doubt there were conversations on the subject, but conversations do not neccessarily mean change of long-held policy in a deeply conservative organisation.
the reporting on this is confusing, but it's pretty clear they only expected him to get the title on Chuck becoming king

you have to read almost to the end of the article to find this out though...
The Sussexes indicated in the interview that they had expected Archie would be given the title of prince after Charles acceded the throne, but that they had been told that protocols would be changed - in line with Charles’s wish for a slimmed down monarchy - so that Archie would be excluded from becoming an HRH and prince.
Was Meghan's son Archie denied the title 'prince' because he's mixed race?
The Duchess of Sussex told Oprah she was shocked at the decision – but who made it, and was it fair?

Also, funny how these 'constitution experts' with raging hard-ons for the royal family are being wheeled out to try and discredit Meghan without even referring to the words she actually said.

My one regret during the Trump administration is that when Betsy Devoss visited a school across from my house, I was so sick from the flu that I couldn't manage to crawl out to the curb to welcome her properly.

The first two paragraphs are indeed excellent but this line really made me laugh:
