That was the moment Diana knew it was over. It was over from the start, would not surprise me at all if Harry is the son of James Hewitt, Charles obviously thought so. He walked right out of the hospital in a rage and drove off to play Polo with Camilla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougie93 Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 None the less, Charles did not embrace him, I remember the scandal in real time, Charles driving off and leaving the mother and baby behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I say that's the moment Diana knew it was all over. The point she realised that Charles didn't give a shit about her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougie93 Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 I'm coming around to Diana now, I didn't like her at the time, but I'm starting to like her now. Not for the reasons the masses like her, but because she became a ruthless operator to rival the Firm, she supplanted them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Royals are Germans. It hardly matters. I differentiate between the political idea of a monarch, and mere royal adulation. The idea is a metaphor, a tool to be used. The person behind it is, of course, the same vulnerable idiot as anyone else... as we see today. I swear no allegience to anyone's DNA.

Dougie93 Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 Bear in mind, Diana was not a commoner, she was raised in a palace, the Spencer's are hardly common, they've been at the center of power for centuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote As a member of the Spencer family, Princess Diana was related to a lot of prominent people in history. But, was Princess Diana related to Winston Churchill? According to Princess Diana’s family tree, the late princess and former Prime Minister were distant cousins and shared some of the same relatives. The two were allegedly related to a man named Charles Spencer (1675-1722), who was the third Earl of Sunderland and his wife, Lady Anne Spencer, whose maiden name was Churchill. The couple was Winston Churchill’s great-great-great-great-great-grandparents and Princess Diana’s great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandparents.

Family rule is pure bullshit, we cannot accept that. What we have now a parliamentary monarchy or variant thereof, is a pretty good compromise, in that there is a process to select the GG, and their powers are limited. But it could certainly be improved, made a more democratic process and given more authority, to keep the government in check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-TSS- Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 The role of the GG in countries such as Canada, Australia, NZ etc is similar to that of presidents in republics such as Germany, Hungary, Italy and numerous others were the position of presidency is largely a ceremonial role. In the Australian republic-referendum 20 years ago republic did not lose because people would love the monarchy so much but because people did not like the kind of republic they were offered whereby the GG would only become president.

Dougie93 Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 The whole Diana phenomena seems rather bizarre now. It's like the crazy celebrity culture we have now, except there was only one celebrity in the whole world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
