Yay or Nay: The Royal Family

[angelic upstart]

I’m not sure this particular gaffe warranted the furore that ensued, but the ‘victim’ in this case knew exactly what she was doing.

Then it's up to the RF to ensure they don't do it in the first place, and subsequently remain out of the spotlight.

Unfortunatly the RF can't remain out of the spotlight, They're our Monarchy and have to be seen, I'm hoping now we're in a new era those that served the late Queen within the RF will be pensioned off and a new generation of people will be advising and working for them, Even though Charles is getting on a bit he does have more of an insight into the world outside of Buckingham Palace and with William and Katherine beside him it will modernise i'm sure.

What exactly was she doing?

What exactly was she doing?

……by going public with this clumsy conversation she knew it would elicit a reaction along the lines of what we have seen. It’s what those perennially engaged in the race baiting game do.
It’s been encouraging to see not everyone is falling over themselves to sympathise with her and her ‘ordeal’.

Looks like the ‘poor Black woman’ is a race grifter and the only paid employee of her BLM funded charity. Rumours also that Camilla was the intended target of her sting on the RF but she had to make do with Hussey.

Now you're just making stuff up.

I see the racist scumbag Dan Wooton has piled in to her. Awful person, but typical Daily Mail employee.

That’s a very unpleasant opinion. A black woman goes to a prestigious event that she and her family must have been extremely proud to be invited to, and when she gets there she has a member of the royal party repeatedly question her ethnicity. The good lady didn’t ask her anything about her charity work, she just asked her about her ethnicity. I don’t care if she’s in her 80s, she’s in a major public role and shouldn’t have these views, let alone express them.

It’s this sort of institutional racism that needs calling out and I’m glad she did. For you to put the word victim in ‘inverted commas’ is unnecessary and says more about you than her.

At the end of the day, if it didn't happen. None of this would've happened. Blame who you like, narrate it however you like. But if she wasn't foolish in the first place it wouldn't have happened.

I’d have used the word racist rather than foolish, but yes.

Exactly, absolute horseshit made up to deflect the attention away from the racists. Wonder why they’d do that?
