I doubt it, but given it was pretty obvious something like this might happen, it doesn't seem impossible that in years to come Harry and Meghan will have some tell all book or something about how awful the royals are, that forced them out.
I have £2 on Gardiner at 200/1. What on earth was I thinking!
With Len's eye watering salary, and grace and favour tied cottage, the last thing he wants is a high taxation Labour government. An unelectable Labour leader should do the trick.
Her Madge will have to come out on this. It is constitutionally important. Does he lose his place in the queue?
Why would he? Plenty of minor royals in the line of succession who are, compared to the top crowd, out of the public view. Wasn't Willy boy apparently planning to scale back the number of 'senior' royals or something?

He's not really in it any more, tho. Charles to William to William's kids. He's only sixth in line.
He’s doing the right thing, 6th in line, never going to be king best to push out on his own than be an Andrew figure. He will have a decent private income and he can be judged over the coming years as to his contribution. It’s in line with the required slimed down monarchy that Charles is pushing, they just need to stop the Cambridge’s producing any more children.
Is there a market, or does anybody want to speculate, on the number of people who will vote in the Labour Leadership election?
I would have thought there will be a noticeable drop compared to last time, especially in the 'registered supporters' category, as its £25 and have to singe up in 48 hour window.
Possibly also a drop the Trade union affiliates, (the latest trade union act having some effect)

But what about the full members? down also?
Do you mean white anglo-saxon male people voting for Starmer, or people more generally?
No, inherited wealth, which conservatives support unlike socialists and inherited jobs, which include executives in family businesses, are not socialist. Socialism is state control of the economy

I don't know if your referring to a dyslexic spelling mistake that I mad and now can see, or something I don't understand. but no I meant people generally.
Looking at my betfair - seems I managed to do a decent rescue job on Keir at 8.4 -> 9.0 on the 17th December; I'll admit I'd mentally written him off before that point as too sane. Ladbrokes 7-4 AFTER the poll showing him ahead was the icing on the cake.
Cheering you on, always great to see bookies pay out.
I had assumed the whole of this tweet was another Titania spoof. I am now seeing it pop up in various other places, not least Spiked, as if the main body of the tweet with the descriptions is real... surely they have just been taken in by the Titania joke. This can't actually be real can it?
Can Gardiner really get the backing of the far left with credentials like these? From Labour List:
"Gardiner also served under Tony Blair and Gordon Brown. He nominated David Miliband in Labour’s 2010 leadership contests and declined to nominate anyone in 2015 or 2016. First elected in 1997, he is a former chair of Labour Friends of India and former vice-chair of Labour Friends for Israel. He voted in favour of the Iraq war – still a key issue for many members – and for maintaining the UK’s nuclear programme."
Is a more plausible explanation that Lewis Goodall's Twitter account has been hacked?
Prince Harry from top geezer to pussy whipped sap in a couple of years.
What a loser.
Come on. He's a ginger squaddie who pulled a beautiful girl off the telly. Most lucky bloke since Ringo.
Good for Harry and Meghan. The Royal Family is an oppressive institution which condemns to a life in the goldfish bowl those unlucky enough to be born into it. More people should quit, go their own way, live their own lives.

I wasn't referring to any mistake of yours. Merely that Labour leadership elections are somewhat odd things. I was equally suggesting that Labour may have a degree of bias when it comes to their top job.

His sanity is an issue with an electorate who voted for Corbyn twice, no doubt about it.
I imagine the Mail will be devoting 10-12 pages to this every day for the next week - who cares about growing international tension when you have a juicy Royal story?
As an aside to the earlier on nuclear weapons - as a Londoner, I've always wondered if, on the day the sirens wail and deterrence has failed, I would draw any comfort in my last minutes of life knowing the citizens of Irkutsk or Omsk would be following me to oblivion?

Tell me Mr Windsor-Hewitt (allegedly) when did it all go wrong?
Prince Harry has a net worth of £19 million in his own right through inheritance from Diana's estate and the estate of the Queen Mother even if he gets nothing more from the Sovereign Grant at all
Wow. Some raw hatred for Meghan Markle on here tonight. Curious. When Boris diverts public funds to his fancy woman he's lauded; when Harry removes them from his wife he's vilified.
btw.. I have spoken to several females of my age and they all seem to think Meghan was and is "trouble". I have no idea as to why? Any ideas?
Because she's a totally self-obsessed social climber who does nothing but lecture out woke shibboleths and answers any criticism of her with charges of racism?

I was misquoting a question posed to George Best by a Hotel Porter, on delivering Champagne to George's room and seeing cash from a big casino win and a lightly-clad Mary Stavin spread over the hotel bed.

I suspect not.
Comfort is to be had closer to home - lots of annoying people will die too (admittedly many of the tube announcers may be underground and survive). Also some few examples of really bad architecture will be no more. More Labour voters will die than Tories. There will be a lot less pigeons.
As to Irkutsk and Omsk - maybe they have annoying people too, and maybe bad architecture. I think it's mainly an anti-pigeon thing though.

The royal family are happy to have the people misplace their hate upon the wives. "But tourist money".

Rule 101 for any Royal: never marry an American.
In any case, BBC story suggests they fully remain part of the royal family - they will just do less royal stuff.

Just form an orderly queue with your proposal, dear producers.

Well, it's a view I suppose...
Trigger warning - very funny!
