A right royal seachange


At a quick glance this photo-from the Guardian- looks like the Queen with Prince Philip and Kate and William-a very typical "wooden" royal photo. It is in fact a tableau from Madam Tussauds after the Kate and Megan figures had been removed yesterday.
The way some in the media have been carrying on the past 24 hours you could be given for thinking that Harry and Meghan are people of real significance. I heard one Australian TV presenter saying "that the whole world was shocked by the news of Harry and Meghan's split with the royal family". I can state categorically that 99.99% of the world's population don't care a tinker's cuss about Harry and Meghan. In fact most of the world's population would not even know who they are.
Every bit as bad as the inane Australian comment was the British "royal observer" who appeared on the Australian ABC yesterday evening. He spoke as if he had a mouthful of plums and he was almost incandescent with rage with Harry and Meghan. He nearly implied that the ravens were about to leave the Tower of London. It was total and utter drivel. Pure codswallop. I was waiting for him to make a racist comment. I am sure the producer had his finger on the mute button as this ancient old fool ranted on.

My view is good on Harry and Meghan. I don't blame them for wanting to leave the stifling royal family. Today's editorial in the Sydney Morning Herald says it all-see link click  HARRY AND MEGHAN

I hope that they make a success of it although I fear that very powerful forces will be at play to make them change their stance. It will be very suspicious if they are involved in a car accident in the next year or so. Always wear your seat belts folks.
