Welcome! This is an unapologetic, agenda-free zone. Just commentaries on current events that’ll move you to think, laugh, rage, and even cry.
Harry and Meghan just released their Netflix documentary, Harry & Meghan. It’s all about them whining again. But now they’re doing so in dramatic fashion. Harry and Meghan release Netflix documentary Their documentary features Meghan asking, ‘Doesn’t it make more sense to hear our story from us?’ It does, of course. But they’ve been peddling their story over and… Read more.
The ‘Harry & Meghan’ Docuseries? No, he should not. That is unless Meghan and Harry issue a public apology. One that expresses regret for all the distress they’ve caused. Until then, Charles should treat them with regal silence. He should keep calm and carry on – as if they do not exist. What about stripping them… Read more.
I am a lawyer. I know the unfairness of imputing guilt by association. However, Lady Susan Hussey’s behavior makes it all too easy, even if improper, to do. She, of course, is the late queen’s lady-in-waiting. She’s recently become infamous after a Black woman accused her of racism. It stems from how Lady Hussey allegedly interrogated her during… Read more.
Harry’s memoir – spare yourself! The title Spare says all anyone needs to know. Because it’s nothing more than the self-pitying tales Harry has been telling for years. And all because he was not born the first royal son. Sad. Sick. Proceeds to charity? Don’t bet on it The Washington Post reported yesterday that: Financial… Read more.
This blog is replete with my anti-monarchist views. But those views date back to my childhood. That’s when I developed an innate sense of resentment at seeing my compatriots take greater pride in the “Queen’s Honours” (like knighthoods and OBEs) than in our national independence. But I am heartened that Barbados is leading “Commonwealth countries”… Read more.
Frankly, the way the British media are hailing Meghan and Harry’s return this week, not just William but even Charles can be forgiven for feeling rather like the good son in “The Parable of the Prodigal Son”. But, even though it’s Sunday, I suspect some of you may not appreciate (or even get) that Biblical… Read more.
According to the hype, Prince Harry’s forthcoming memoir will contain shocking revelations that are bound to shake the very foundation of the British monarchy. Except that redoubtable British biographer Tom Bower just stole Harry’s thunder. In Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the War Between the Windsors, Bower rehashes hackneyed gossip with contumely relish (e.g., that Meghan… Read more.
Prince Charles is facing allegations that he lords over a cash-for-honours racket. I am not surprised. After all, I’ve been denouncing the British royal family as royal grifters for decades. Hell, I even denounced them in “Dissing British Monarchy to Mourn American Democracy” (November 6, 2020). Such is my abiding contempt. Prince Charles bagging cash… Read more.
Only children believe in fairy tales. Yet it took the tragic life of Princess Diana for many to realize that royalty is no fairy tale. Her son, Prince Harry, is reinforcing this realization. He’s claiming that British royals are trapped in gilded cages. And that makes their fairy-tale lives seem very grim indeed. British royals trapped… Read more.
I honestly said all I wanted to in my original “Spoiler Alert” at March 6 below. But my new Admin (you know, the one who has me now doing podcasts out of my closet) prevailed upon me to write a post-interview follow-up. Overall, I found the interview far more credible, compelling and even sympathetic than… Read more.
