The Palace are liars

[cromwell]

Were far too engrossed in the football played by our almost all black team down here in Croydon to be making monkey noises at anyone not to mention it would probably end up with getting a right hander off someone .

Besides  we  save our insults for the French 

Which is why I'd never include you with the arseholes 

[Streetwalker]

Oh come on we both know that the arseholes at footie make monkey noises at black players,baker supports Millwall please don't say he had no idea how his comments would be taken.

He's fully aware.

Why not a chimp ?

Then why a chimp — if it was a comment on Black and White, surely a zebra is more relevant...?

Why not a chimp ?

[Sheepy]

It's an anachronism in this day and age, but what the hell, it works and serves a purpose.


Why run the risk of having a Trump, Putin or Sarkozy as head of state?  The idea appeals to me that whichever party gets power, and whoever leads it, there is always someone above them, in this world, that they have to defer to...

In Black and White like a Zebra.

Writing in bold doesnt make anything more true  .

Im not comparing (nor was Baker by the way ) a baby to a chimp ,  someone at the BBC was

Ah I remember it , couldn't view it then nor now but got the jist of it . As I said earlier its a bit childlike to expect the same response for doing the same thing as someone else .

Maybe she over acted .

I looked for it to clarify what srb was on about but it appears not to be in this thread

I can't really pretend to have much time of Meaghan or any other Royal, but there is definitely very double standards from sections of the UK media
I saw this really good post on Sino-Defence and decided to post.

But SW the link provided by Sampan did illustrate a completely different attitude by the press to remarkably similar situations.

Kate was getting good press and Meghan bad press for doing exactly the same things!!!

You have to wonder why. What is the difference between Kate and Meghan? One is white, one isn't. One is British, one isn't. What difference do you think justifies such different treatment for the same things?

And if you think comparing a black baby to a chimpanzee is not racist, you must be a fool. Next thing you know you'll be saying the n word is not racist

Lots of people have made good points.   

Lots of people have made irrelevant and uninformed pro and anti points. What's noticeable is how good points are "recognised" when they back up the opinion of the commentator or person applauding the point.
I doubt few people know all the facts, probably not even HM, and certainly not armchair psychiatrists and media commentators — irrespective of whether they regard themselves as pro HM, or pro Team Harry & Megan...

Someone on the TV made some very good points...

The OW interview was stacked very firmly in her favour and did not ask a single question on why she only had one member of her family at the wedding. Why she falls out with every single person she spends an extended time with: hence only her mother was at the wedding.

They also pointed to the fact that OW her self was invited to the wedding when she had only met MM once!
She then does a 2 hour interview at a believed half a million a minute, giving OW an exclusive scoop.
Does OW now give her a peg up to get her failed acting career back on track in the good ole US of A?

Looks like she isn't that dumb after all and may have had this planned all along.

The racially motivated demonisation of Meghan went well beyond general news reporting, and no one stepped in.

She was attacked in the media for one simple reason, no one likes her. Bugger all to do with her skin colour.
