Gordon R Posted November 29, 2023 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 I will be interested to see if the Royal family break with tradition and sue Scobie. The two names now in the public domain could have a field day with him. Harry has already denied one of them was involved, so Scobie would have difficulty attributing the comments to him.

ditchman Posted November 29, 2023 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 dont think it will happen...............if it were up to Prince Wiliam i think it would happen..................perhaps Scobie will have a nasty accident in the Blackwall tunnel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbob Posted November 29, 2023 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 Never happen They might say a lot behind closed doors but never in public Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnfromUK Posted November 29, 2023 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 Scobie is now making noises (threats?) that he won't publish the names "for now", but wonders if "that might change in the future". https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12805981/Omid-Scobie-speculates-two-royal-racists-future-Endgame.html Seems to me a bit like a threat. What an utterly despicable thing to do - make it clear (by mistake of course) that you have kniowledge that will be painful if released, then say you will not release it now, but may in the future.

It's news because 'someone' keeps raising it casting suspicions/rumours/allegations that certain senior Royals are racist. I don't believe for a moment that they are - I see it as entirely innocent internal family chatter that should have remained internal to the family and private. But 'someone' is determined otherwise and will try to keep it in the public eye. If it brings in money on books, newspapers, internet 'clicks' - it will be kept at the top of the 'news heap'.

I get the revenue garnering thing, I just find it hard to believe anyone cares. It’s just gossip for the empty-headed who haven’t got enough going on in their lives. I would think in reality that it was simply a bit of banter, said in jest or even without thinking. I can’t believe anything malicious was intended. Sadly, we seem to have got to the stage in our evolution where the intelligent are frightened to say anything lest the imbeciles are offended. If this makes the national news then we are truly on a downward spiral as a species. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vince Green Posted December 1, 2023 Report Share Posted December 1, 2023 (edited) I absolutely don't believe a word of it and never have. The royals are far too clever to have said anything like that to her even if they thought it. It's more Megan Mischief aimed at causing maximum trouble and she is succeeding. Even Oprah is distancing herself from the interview Edited December 1, 2023 by Vince Green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pushkin Posted December 2, 2023 Report Share Posted December 2, 2023 The person who did the translation from English to Dutch was coming under serious pressure for doing her job "which is simply translating what was written in the proofs sent to her" But of course he wouldn't want to take responsibility for that would he?
