I meant to say “because she’s Canadian?” as a question, not an answer.

I’ve heard some speculation here that they will move to LA. I don’t know if there’s anything to support that other than that that’s where celebrities usually want to live and she’s an
actress. .

Will the Duchess of Sussex have dual citizenship yet? How does that work when a Brit marries a foreigner? If she's not got a British passport, and intends to spend long periods out of the UK, will that impact her getting a visa to return to the UK for work in future?

Of Johnson's 3 most senior government ministers, two are non-white and another half-Hungarian even if he sounds Glaswegian...coincidental?
Earlier on the BBC, various monarchy experts were queued up to discuss whether, at almost 94, Brenda ought to think about at least partial retirement. I mean, it would be exhausting for someone a third of her age to be lifelong head of state with 80%+ approval, CEO of the wide-ranging multinational family 'firm', unchallenged Dalai Lama-like authority, not to mention probably confused old lady whose middle-aged children and grandchildren amazingly don't always share her 1940s Worldview. Who, let's not forget, has never in 70 years had to give an interview justifying any of the above. My late mother (a contemporary of Mrs Windsor), often chided me for wishing the old girl into her grave, to which I reminded that my criticism has been consistent since about 1970Last edited by Duncan Gardner; 13-01-2020, 11:24.

I think there's an arrogance in her that assumes she would get a free pass in any pogrom because she's a Tory and a Minister, and educated and rich. When she talks about immigrant families or ethnic minorities it's not self-referencing.

It’s not just the ‘educated and rich’ bit, of and by itself. There is definitely a section of the “I’m not racist, some of my best friends are black/Indian” bit of the right who are really only talking about their friends from the rotary club or the cricket club. The ones from the Commonwealth (ah, the good old Commonwealth) who speak perfect English, dress like us and try ever so hard not to do anything the Daily Mail doesn’t like. Not like those other immigrants who do insidious things like speak in their own language, wear funny garb or have their own aisles now in Sainsbury’s. There are still a few die hard royalists who sniffly refer - with absolutely no apparent sense of irony - to the Duke of Edinburgh as “Phil the Greek” ...

Nef- thanks, my mistake. (Raab is the German and earlier name for the town Hungarians call Gyor)
Rogin- my brother started demanding that Sainsbury sell ethnic foodstuffs as soon as he arrived in England. Tatie farls, Cookstown sausages and the like
