I doubt many of the Asian based expats would be granted the free large stately homes, the chauffuers, the fleet of luxury vehicles, the palace grounds, the servants, the security, the executive boxes at major sporting events, the invitations to high society functions, the ability to have all of this while not even having to hold down a real job. Just be driven to a few charity events here and there, cut some ribbon, shake some hands, exchange pleasantries. Do some actual good in the world, instead of just talking about it. Harry gets all of that when in the UK, and none of it (for free) when in the US. Asian based expats like myself get a far better quality of life here than I would have in the UK. I am still very fond of it there though, and don't feel the need to constantly deride it. Of course the UK isn't perfect, where is? Not Thailand. And certainly not the US. Harry hates the UK because he is an entitled spoiled brat. I'd imagine being stuck away from his friends and family, doing drugs, juggling and feeding chickens in that house in Montecito he's already realizing how good he had it in the UK. Alas, his ego (and his wife) won't allow him to acknowledge the huge mistake he's made. In the words of Ice-T, you played yourself Harry. Ain't nobody else's fault, you played yourself.

I quite like it there. Phala beach, Phayun beach, the strip of bars (maybe seen better days) etc. It always seemed like a place that was better to visit for a weekend than to actually live there though.

Please provide evidence that she wasn't accepted. All the evidence I see (the fantastic cottage, the multi million pound wedding, the glowing words) indicate that she was absolutely accepted by the family. She just preferred California so she manufactured the victim narrative to justify leaving. Some people fell for it. Not many though. Most see exactly who she is and what happened.

Agreed. Myself included (although I don't hate facets, merely dislike them). Had he left the country and just got on with his life I would have assumed this to be the case. However, he didn't. He left the country and has ripped into it publicly for 2 years. His obsession with it is not natural. These are not the actions of a man who simply dislikes some aspects of it. He clearly despises it. The title of Tom Bower's book "Revenge" was spot on.

His actions of leaving his country, his family, his duty and then slagging them off shows exactly what he thinks. Why would he pick up an award for fighting racism in the Royal Family (and then confirm 2 weeks later there is no racism) unless he hated it? He even says it in the video below, straight from the horses mouth. Well, thanks to your constant moaning, lying and trashing your country no longer likes you, Harry. What a spoiled brat.

Well the dress is not a living entity so No, it cannot break the rules. AOC's payments for the rental of the dress broke them. I love intelligent women. Attention seeking narcissists? Not so much.

Another nail in the coffin of women's sport. I wonder how long before we get to see biologically male boxers battering women in the boxing ring? All in the name of being kind and progressive of course ????.

He's hardly going to come out and say "I'm trying to bring down the Monarchy" is he? Not even quarterwit Harry is that stupid. However his constant attacks on the King, the future King, the recently deceased Queen, collecting awards for fighting racism in the Royal Family (which he later denied existed) and attacks on the institution itself clearly indicate he is trying to do as much damage as possible to the Monarchy. Still keeping his titles though ????. Merchers gonna Merch.

Depends how she paid for it. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/05/nyregion/aoc-met-gala-house-ethics.html I'm sure she's enjoying all the attention anyway.

Wow didn't see that coming, I felt Utd's recent results had been better than their performances but 7-0??? Wow. I hope Rick is OK. Tough pill to swallow. Maybe he can drown his sorrows with a Vodka and Lemonade?

It's a bit more than a family dispute. They are actively trying to bring down the British Monarchy. They'd better have thick skin if they do come back. All the good will and adoration that was originally shown to Meghan has gone. They will be booed everywhere they go. Rightly so, they are a disgrace. Very real security concerns as well. After his comments on the Taliban he'd better be careful in places like London where there are plenty of sleeper cells that would be more than happy to become martyrs by exacting revenge for his boasting about his kill count. From Invictus to Evict Us. Not too smart that boy Harry.

This woman simply loves attention. Look at meeeeeeee.... The dress was hideous and broke ethics rules. The message was straight of a sixth form common room. Apart from that, whoooo way to go girl!!!

They're probably busily filming the opening of the invitation, then Meghan crying on the floor (left eye only) for the next Netflix series. Hopefully they stay away. Chris Rock did a great stand up hitpiece on this pair of Charlatans. Very amusing. Even black Americans have grown tired of the constant merching of imaginary victimhood.

Similarly, not every SNP voter is an anti English nationalist Braveheart wannabe. But every anti English Braveheart wannabe is an SNP voter. Anyway Sturgeon is gone so let's not pretend Scottish independence is still realistic. Back on topic. Multi millionaire victims Harry and Meghan losing their multi million pound holiday home in a country they hate is not the biggest humanitarian crisis right now. Good riddance to the dastardly duo. It's a shame exile is not possible.

Great actor. Did a nice cameo in one of my favourite movies True Romance.

They should have kept quiet, changed the locks and let Andrew move in. Then film it when Harry and his wife turn up, Jeremy Beadle style. Sell it to Netflix. Seriously though, looking at recent pictures of Harry I think he's finally worked it out. He got played, or maybe played himself. Trouble is, he is so dim it will take him 5 years to work out his next move. When she's done with him, maybe he can return to the family and work for charities helping Male survivors of psychological domestic abuse? He likes playing the victim.

You should provide links, not only screenshots. Unless you are trying to hide the source because it's from some anti British Europhilesrus website like The Guardian.

If you look at the precise definition of federalism you can see it is already happening. The states mentioned below are the EU member states. You can argue whether this is a good or a bad thing, but you can't deny it is happening.

I think data is better. However, in the real world not all of the electorate have the data to hand or are even that interested to go and find out. This applies to both sides, I am sure there are both Remainers and Leavers who voted on gut instinct. There are also different priorities. Remainers on the whole don't seem too bothered about sovereignty or agency as long as short term GDP is OK. Some people believe trade deals are the be all and end all of doing business. Some people are fine with the protocols of the EU. I take a different view.

That's true, but many people who vote in General Elections are also completely uninformed and the result of general elections can also have huge implications for the country. Many people don't bother to check the party manifestos. Some people vote for one party or another because that's how their parents always voted. Some people vote for a party because they find the candidate physically attractive, or because they are the same sex/race as the candidate. Is that any better than voting on 'gut instinct'? Often, your gut instinct can be very accurate.

Ahhh - I see you are able to predict the future. Why didn't you tell us that before?

That headline really should be "Arch Remainer remains bitter about Brexit". ????

Brexit was such a disaster, it's even caused Thailand problems. What's that you say? Global economic downturn? Covid? War in Ukraine? No No No, any issues in Britain are due to Brexit. ????

It's difficult though isn't it. General elections are held on a great number of issues. Health, education etc. Similarly, sometimes we vote for a party based on a manifesto (like when I voted for Labour under Blair) and then the party goes and does something that had you known, you never would have voted for them (like going to war in Iraq based on WMD lies). That's why on huge issues like Brexit or Scottish Independence there really needs to be a separate vote to understand the direction that the electorate wants their country to go. Then, we need to respect that vote.

And yet nobody asked the British people what they thought of this change, until 2016 of course. I guess that depends on whether you support the concept of the nation state. Personally I do. I'd hate to see individual countries and cultures merge into some kind of dogs dinner where you can't tell the difference between Spain and Italy. Unfortunately, that's the way the EU is heading (and yes, I realize we are not there yet but I am talking about the direction of travel).
