Our 'terribly white' Royal Family

[sinkov]

"The row over the ‘terribly white’ Royal balcony exposes the hypocrisy of the woke Left".

"During ITV’s live coverage of the Coronation last Saturday, the actress Adjoa Andoh – who plays Lady Danbury in Bridgerton – described the shot of the Royal family standing on the balcony of Buckingham Palace as “terribly white”. This comment has now provoked more complaints to Ofcom than anything else on TV this year.

Personally, I’m all for freedom of speech. So I think Ms Andoh is entitled to her view. The only trouble is, I don’t understand it. What exactly was she trying to say?

The use of the word “terribly” implies disapproval. It suggests that there’s something wrong with the Royal family all being white. But if so, what are they supposed to do about it? Should the Royal family introduce a quota system? Pledge to ensure that a minimum 15 per cent of Royal family members are non-white by 2030? Arrange for all members of the family who are currently single to be married off to non-white partners, so that they can produce non-white children?"

Actually I feel for the young lady at the centre of this storm in a tea cup. Her comment is perfectly understandable, she's simply reflecting on the world she sees around her. Every time she watches a film there will be black actors, often portraying people who would have been white in reality, every TV soap features black actors, every TV series will feature black actors, many of our top politicians are black, so are TV newsreaders, TV sports presenters and pundits, rare indeed is a TV or magazine advert that doesn't feature a black person or a black family.

So when Adjoa sees an all white family line up on the Palace balcony, it must have come as something of a shock, unreal almost to her, no wonder she commented on it, it was such an unusual sight for someone of her age. Leave her alone.

Well said, sinkov,so much diversity in every part of our society, however, the Royal Family are all white apart from the member who removed herself and her husband, in spite of every effort made by the British media and public to make her an accepted member of this terribly white Royal family.

It's laughable, it's like watching the film Zulu and saying why are there no white zulus?

A little bit of walking around these parts i e, the Negev desert would add a bit of colour to their faces, or even around the Galilee (even siting on a deck chair at the sea side near me ,would also add a 'wee' bit too. We have had several 'Brits' that have dared to sit by our pool in the sunshine too long, and ended up looking like 'Red Indians' come late afternoon!

I am glad you got the joke Supersub6, where on earth are we going to find naturally black Germans, certainly not in Windsor.

She’s quite obviously racist in the highest order and then we wander why we have issues
