    People won't admit, even 25 years later. Closet racists in this country. Same folk who voted Brexit and pretended it was about the NHS but really it was a vote for racism

    Watch Ancient Apocalypse instead. It's terrific. Even if Graham Hancock pronounces data as data and not data.

    Arnold Schwarzernegger could be the host of a new game show....

    "We're gonna play a wonderful game called, who is my Daddy and what does he do"?.

    How old were you 25 years ago?

    What I remember, at 24, is that she absolutely loved the attention she got and went out of her way to court it. Both of them were absolute arseholes weaponising the press against each other, and the kids were there to be used as cudgels.

    Any of Diana's children would've been brought up by nannies, if they were lucky ...

    ... and packed off to boarding school at the first opportunity.

    Let's not forget Diana left the kids and went off abroad on the razzle with her latest boyfriend.

    He pronounces it as darta.

    Makes a very compelling case though.

    I was 21. I remember lots of grainy pictures in the red tops, taken from hundreds of yards away desperate to see something that would invoke rage. Her kissing her boyfriend whilst on holiday is hardly them being arseholes, weaponising the press.

    Fergie got her tits out and had some Yank suck her toes whilst still married to the Duke of York, but that was ok because he was white

    The first and last parent to ever do that. Imagine a woman leaving her children with their father to go on holiday.

    They should bring back hanging

    The public were on her side and interested in Diana no matter what she was doing ...

    ... hence the mass mourning when she died.

    Who was in a rage?

    Don't be daft, I'm simply saying that people of the gentry, like her, think nothing of leaving their children in the care of servants.

    Nowt terribly wrong with it, just how they all are.

    The red top buying public weren't in a rage with Diana, they loved her.

    In this case what people believed was the truth.

    She was on holiday with her latest boyfriend and they were interested ...

    ... I can't remember anyone being in a rage, not at all.

    Because you brought up the subject of Diana, not me, and claimed the press destroyed her.

    I think that's a laughable notion.

    She could have been going out with the whitest man on the planet (who I believe was Gary Numan at the time) and the amount of interest would be exactly the same.
