Why should the colour of Meghan Markle's skin cause so much debate. She is the wife of Prince Harry and certain sections of the UK media have from day one tried to use the racist card to attack them.

We are being told that there is some conflict between them and some other members of the royal family. It would be strange within any family if there was not some strains between some members of the family.

The late Queen summed up the situation by saying "Some Recollections Vary"

The main concern this weekend is will Burnley FC be victorious over Queens Park Rangers, this is far more important than the squabbles in the royal family.

That's interesting VC, my recollection is that our media initially welcomed her as a breath of fresh air in our Royal Family, I didn't read or hear any racist attacks on her in our media. Obviously I must have missed these racist attacks on her, could you put up some links to some of them, I would very much like to know what I missed.

Ahh ha that’s right Sinkov there were none , she created the whole charade herself , funded at the time by the one and only divide and conquer establishment BLM - I’m not sure but if she was funded by that and was actively backing it - she’s definitely a person of colour with some massive issues.

The royals made a massive mistake allowing this relationship to happen - but as I said earlier in a post they’re on with it - removal of titles was a subject / 2nd vote on the bill this week , and when it’s passed , they’ll be removed.

Poor lad has got dragged along and embroiled in something he can’t get out of and it’s going to finish him and his wife.

I watched a snippet the other day where Meghan mocked the Queen about bowing and laughing , the embarrassment on Harry’s face was there for all to see-

When push comes to shove which side will he choose ?

While I cannot provide any links to press releases, the point I wanted to make was the the colour of her skin should not matter.

It is also interesting to note just how different the British press treat Camilla and Meghan. I could be biased on this as I have no time whatsoever for Charles & Camilla, as I have previously said I do not think he is a fit and proper person to be head of state for our great country.

VC can't find any links, I had a look myself and the best I could find was that she was whinging about a Vanity Fair headline, 'She's just Wild About Harry' in 2017. Apparently someone blacked up once sang it in a film, who knew, and thus to use it with regard to her was racist. I've been familiar with the phrase 'Wild about Harry' virtually all my life, before my time Judy Garland sang it, Harry Truman used it as his Presidential campaign song, it was the title of a film released in 2000, I've even seen it used about Harry Kane when he's been on a scoring spree. You've got to be somewhat deranged to attach any racial connotations to this phrase, or as is more likely here, you are playing the race card.

Incidentally BT, to save you time, please be aware of the context of my request for links to racist media attacks on Meghan,

"the UK media have from day one tried to use the racist card to attack them."

"my recollection is that our media initially welcomed her as a breath of fresh air in our Royal Family, I didn't read or hear any racist attacks on her in our media."

'From day one' and 'initially' being the relevant bits, it's the early racist attacks on her that VC mentions and I missed that I'm interested in, please stick to your brief. And you'd better come up with something a tad more vitriolic than Wild About Harry as well, that one is laughable.

I'm still intrigued VC, you mentioned racist attacks on her from day one, you must have some basis for stating that, you have power of the Google search engine at your disposal, surely you can come up with something ?

I agree the colour of her skin should not matter, it doesn't matter to me, I doubt it matter to 99.9% of the population, but it certainly seems to matter to her.

As for the difference in the media attitude to Camilla and Meghan, I think that is easily explained, Camilla keeps her head down and gets on with her duties, she does not criticise the Royal Family, this country or any of it's institutions, as for Meghan............need I go on ?

I think that is easily explained, "Camilla keeps her head down" and gets on with her duties.Exactly..🤣

Well Sinkov, I was using my memory when I posted about racial attacks by the press. I still think my memory is correct, but as this was around 2016 I could be having a senior moment. Yes I do have access to Google but, I do not have the inclination to waste my limited energy looking up facts pertaining to the British Press and the Royal Family.
