    Two points here HenRach H&M's lack of comment now is, in itself, continuing to hurt the BRF. As someone else said, it implies they are defiantly standing by all the things they did and said, and still consider themselves to be in the right. This in turn widens the division and puts a further...

    IMO the answer to the first two of your very important and relevant questions is a resounding "No" and the third is a most definite "Yes".

    Great to see him in my neck of the woods!

    Yep. PH couldn't care less about us either, unless we are useful to him, like the "fans" he met last night. He's been moulded into a "celebrity" and thus conditioned to forget any understanding of duty, loyalty and hard work. Now it's all about optics.

    Well said! Private conversations and visits are one thing, but this sort of visit is another situation entirely. I'm just breathing a huge sigh of relief that no one else from the BRF was there. Can you imagine if they had been on the next Netflix documentary? It doesn't bear thinking about...

    Charles is very busy. He’s the King! And he’s fighting cancer! With respect Curryong, I understand that you adore PH and despise King Charles, but to accuse him of showing “nothing to show any sort of caring on his return” is IMO (and to put it as nicely as possible) extremely questionable...

    In fairness, having watched a number of video clips of when PH went up the steps, not just the MSM ones but others made by people who were actually there as part of the crowd, it should be noted as well as the cheers there were plenty of boos too, rather like the Jubilee. To be expected, of...

    Bravo, Toledo! Well said. Another crown for you sir! :crown2: With respect Henrach, the BRF and UK had no choice but to move on in 2020, and we have done so, and are getting on with life, in spite of H&M's attacks - and the fallout of them - continuing pretty much ever since. Don’t forget...

    The mother of PH's childhood best friend is to receive an MBE. :) https://archive.ph/0NcW4 "In 2007, the family set up the Henry van Straubenzee Memorial Fund to support children in Uganda, initially at the school where Henry had been due to teach. Two years later, William and Harry became...

    To answer your last question first: Because it's not about PH. As per, H&M are putting their own interests before anyone else's. From Toledo's excellent post yesterday (I hope he won't mind me quoting it in part here): "I hope, every day, month and year that reasoning will get the top spot...

    I wasn't going to post today, there are other things I want to do so I will keep it brief (for me!) ;) For clarity: Yes the King needs to respect the UK people's justified feelings about H&M, but nobody expects or wants that to mean that H&M and the children can't visit the UK. Quite the...

    The manipulative stranger I am referring to is MM, I thought that was clear, but I've amended my post to make this clearer and avoid any more misunderstanding. Also, I am referring to the anti-British sentiment in "a number of posts", not specifically to that conversation. I still think that is...

    OK, back from my walk! Thank you Toledo for your great post. Maryrose, reading the above posts again, it is clear to me that the suggestion is that the children would be "subjected" to unpleasantness due to the difficult situation between the BRF and H&M. I get that you are saying the media...

    Thanks for your reply! Just to clarify: I didn't say the children are alone all the time. I said the children are often in a situation where one or both of their parents are absent - there is a difference. :) No one would "subject" the children to anything. PH was "snubbed with glee" (as...

    With the greatest of respect Anna, "subject the kids" to what? Is the King going to lock them away in the Tower of London? Really? :ROFLMAO: Speaking more seriously, I think it is safe to say that when meeting the children, both the King and Queen would behave with maturity and put aside any...

    No doubt that is the real reason for the visit. They have to deliver content to Netflix to get paid, as I understand it.

    And thank you Toledo for doing so! I couldn't find another laurel, so have a crown! :crown2: Like their other grandfather, I'm sure the King would love to see them, and there is no good reason why the children can't come to the UK; they would be perfectly safe. It's the truth that matters...

    Great post! That pretty much sums up the way H&M operate; haphazard and random are two of the kinder adjectives I would use in relation to their business operations. Add to that a huge dollop of refusing to listen to advice and much more than a hearty pinch of staff turnover, it's all a bit of a...

    Yes. That is the enormous problem that PH and MM have created. I do wonder if they understand its impact, or if they even care. I doubt it. Edit: if what you suggest was done, it might help a bit. It would put some clear daylight between the BRF and H&M, and reinforce boundaries.

    Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, General News 5: Sep 2022-

    At the end of day, it's a beautiful photograph of our wonderful young Princess! That, in theory, should be all that needs to be said. I’ve thought about how difficult it must be to balance public interest and privacy, particularly in the face of battling a serious illness and the knowledge that...

    Thank you for your interesting and informative post! :flowers: I like the analogy about the car! The problem is, of course, that PH has for all of his life been part of a family who represent a country where the wheel is definitely on the right hand side, and he continues to be recognised and...
