I’ve been so impressed by The Prince and Princess of Wales over the last week. It has been a particularly trying time and yet they are always the calm in the storm! I want to highlight that, because I think it’s so important because It builds on QEII’s famous legacy “keep calm and carry on”. See you in a few hours ❤️

Heh, lovely people.
I've decided to take a little break; I will see you bright-eyed and bushy-tailed on the flip side.
Enjoy the rest of your week!
Hugs,

I reviewed a book yesterday because I have been researching the deliberate besmirching of Diana’s legacy after her death, for years.

I reviewed it as a tribute to Diana, and as that, it was very moving with several details about her childhood I had never heard before.

It also moves the needle back to some balance about Diana, who has had her reputation sullied by those seeking to support the Sussexes and also unnecessary hate against her from Royalists.

There was no reference to Harry and Meghan in the text because the book is largely centred in the period of time before Harry or William were born.

I made my feelings very clear about Harry and Meghan in my recent video, because I resent their exploitation of Diana, especially minimising her experience with the paparazzi in their Netflix documentary.

I do not like or trust their agenda against the Wales family and the institution of the Monarchy, and that hasn’t changed.

Yes I am disappointed that the Piers Morgan photograph story was incorrect, and I immediately published a correction.

The extracts about the King were not shocking when read in context of the fraught atmosphere during that week, I said in my last video I didn’t see it as a big deal because who hasn’t said something they regret in an argument? I did not seek, to make much of that and I haven’t.

The reference to King Charles’s valet interested me because it points to the Peat Enquiry and several stories of note that are a matter of police record. That is where my interests starts and ends.

I don’t think that the alleged lapse of temper on the phone, speaks to the King’s character, but rather a history of troubling incidents spelt out in Tom Bower’s book The Rebel King that have been the subject of several enquiries. Due to that information and the study of several official reports I admit I have expressed doubts about KCIII judgement or suitability for his current role.

He is the Head of State of my country so it is relevant to me.

There is also documented evidence about the pressure he put on QEII via a media campaign about Camilla which appalled me, as I have defended her faithfully against bullying in the last years of her life.

I also do not trust he has ever really acted in the best interests of the Wales family.

Apparently no-one has a problem with Tom Bower’s book? It is far more damming than Spencer’s!
Excuse me for pointing out the blatant hypocrisy of that.

I reviewed a book about Diana honestly, that’s all.

For doing that I have been the subject of a ridiculous feral pile on across my social media.

At least I evaluate available evidence and have the guts to speak honestly.

I doubt any of those coming after me would.
Lots of courage in a group, hiding behind anonymous handles.

I stand by my work.

I did this episode a while ago.
Who knew it would become so relevant?
The Queen knew the dangers of Michael Fawcett, so she sent Peat to investigate.

Maybe watch it if you are sick of BS and spin and want to be informed.
