Harry and Meghan: How Royal Family advisers are destroying the Royal Family

 

When Diana died, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II did not manage to read the public mood. Driven by tradition, she could not understand the new world that was open right in front of her. She had to be told to come out and grieve with the rest of the nation.

Not in a million years could the Royal Family have imagined or conceived the idea that Harry would end up marrying outside the circle of 'acceptability'. Every gesture, every word, every statement made about fairness and equality and open-ness were now going to be tested to the limit. 

In years past, the Royal Family faced a huge challenge when a King - Edward VIII, Prince of Wales - was told in no uncertain terms that he could not remain as King as long he wanted to marry an American divorcee. Decades later, Prince Charles, first heir to the Throne, married a divorcee after the catastrophic end of his marriage to Princess Diana. Had the trauma of Edward VIII's abdication been avoided, history would have been radically different not just for Britain, but also for Europe and the world as a whole.

To say that the Royal Family has been under close scrutiny is one of the biggest understatements of all times. The Royal Family is not just under scrutiny because of the Charles and Diana saga. The behaviour of Prince Andrew in terms of his personal life and of his commercial dealings involving National Security has not done the Royal Family any favours. The feud created by the way they have dealt with Harry and Meghan has extremely serious connotations. In the USA, the R word has already been mentioned and the question has already been uttered. Are Harry and Meghan being treated as they are being treated because Meghan is mixed race? The whole affair could have critical geopolitical repercussions i.e. the Commonwealth.

All the efforts made to market the Royal Family as modern, openminded, tolerant and well suited for the Britain of the Twenty-First Centurity look and feel now like a complete waste of time. The divide between the Royal Family and the new multicultural and multiracial Britain is growing wider and wider. In the struggle, Harry and Meghan have come to represent David while the Royal Family is unquestionably seen as Goliath.

Royal Advisers have tried to destroy Harry and Meghan. They went after their public image using public humiliation as a tool. There are accusations about bullying and most recently about improper use of the charity status. This will go on and on and at every step a new bit will be chopped away damaging the Royal Family and turning the Royal Family into a figure of hatred and public disgust. William will be made to represent the old and corrupt establishment with its privileges and veils of secrecy while Harry will be the Champion of ordinary people who stood on his two feet againt the tyranny imposed by the Establishment. Of the two brothers, Harry will be Diana's legitimate heir and we know whom public opinion will support.
