The thing is though Bobby, Corbyn was quite rightly credited with being someone who the IRA were willing to talk to to facilitate peace talks, thus helping to end the conflict......and of course he was willing to have these meetings in the open, unlike Willie Whitelaw who met up in secret. Terry Christian is just a manc **** who liked a *****phile
yeah i was messing with kiwi stainesy. Anyway, lets get back on topic. When are we abolishing the royal family?
lol wow. British journalism at its finest. "is your family a racist family?". Yeah hes going to answer yes
to be honest, I couldnt really give a **** about this. a Queen that has sat at the top table of the country for decades...she must have been doing something right other we woul have been at war for the duration of her reign. Megan, the family woman who doesnt get on with her family.....or her ex's family. The royals might nt be perfect but prefer having the system we have rather than the american way where presidents refuse to give up their seat in power when they lose elections. If I could some this up in a song, it would be Pearl's Cafe by The Specials - and the chorus....It's all a load of bullocks and bullocks to it all
You are correct, the ‘old girl’ has done a great job for many a year. She has weathered many a storm from the media and from within and continues to hold respect. On the other hand, Charles is a prized buffoon who is so far removed from reality. Prince William should be next on the throne.
I hear Prince Harry sent Prince Philip these biscuits by express mail to his hospital bed. A very thoughtful and kind act to his grandfather.
you are all racist even if you didn't know it Organization says sharing Oprah interview memes is ‘digital blackface’ By Elizabeth Elizalde March 12, 2021 | 10:28pm | Updated Enlarge Image please log in to view this image Oprah Winfrey interviewing Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

Meredith’s People Royals mag debut focused on the wrong couple UK viewers were horrified during royal interview — watching US commercials Non-black people should not spread Oprah Winfrey memes from the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle interview — because that’s supporting “digital blackface,” a non-profit organization is complaining. The Slow Factory Foundation, which is dedicated to social and environmental justice, issued the warning on its Instagram page Tuesday, saying “digital blackface” is an “online phenomenon” where white and non-black people share images of black people to express emotion. Oprah Winfrey’s variety of facial reactions during the interview have resulted in a slew of viral memes. “While seemingly harmless, the problem with digital blackface is that it often reinforces negative stereotypes about Black folks such as they’re aggressive, loud, sassy and simply here for your consumption and entertainment,” the post reads. The organization added, “Performing Blackness, be it IRL or online, is not an acceptable form of expressing reaction or dissatisfaction, especially not in exchange for likes and retweets.” “Since the #MeghanandHarry interview on Oprah, we’ve been seeing a lot of digital blackface infractions with a few of Oprah’s reaction GIFs and images going viral, but that doesn’t mean you should be using them,” the Slow Factory continued. One popular Oprah meme shows the media mogul with a shocked expression on her face after Markle revealed to her that someone in the royal family raised concerns about baby Archie’s skin color once he was born. see also please log in to view this image ‘CBS This Morning’ scores rare ratings win after Oprah’s interview with Harry and Meghan Some people on social media praised the organization for raising awareness of “digital blackface.” “Thank you for explaining this so clearly. Very helpful,” one Instagram user wrote. “Thank you so much for this – this is something I hadn’t realized and I’m definitely going to be way more thoughtful about the gifs I choose and why,” another user wrote. Meanwhile, others felt the Slow Factory’s messaging went too far. “Blackface is a violent and harmful representation of black people rooted in violence. Using a gif of Oprah is NOT blackface,” one person wrote. “Reaction pictures/gifs and memes are universal and are certainly not a part of “digital black face,” said another person. “I feel like that’s extremely divisive. People use reaction pictures of those of another race all the time and I don’t see how that’s harmful.” The term “digital blackface” has been around for years, but writer Lauren Michele Jackson popularized it in a 2017 essay for Teen Vogue.
