The error of going to the coronation: What did Harry do wrong

In the end, it didn't matter what Harry did.  He flew in for a 24-hour visit to the UK to see his father becoming the king of the United Kingdom.  His gesture was one of conciliation in a family that basically hates his guts, and that of his wife.

I did read his book, it was interesting in a kind of weird way.  What was amazing is how he and his brother were treated differently. On the bright side, Harry was able to become a real soldier, unlike the rest of his family, for a short period of time he had a real job.

Harry arrived Friday morning and Saturday afternoon around 4 pm he was gone.,  Yet the anti-harry bunch was going after the guy.  He arrived Friday, went to bed, and went to a coronation.  That's it, he spoke to only a few cousins and said very little, but the press does love drama, and made shit up.  He was right to go home ASAP.

The thing about this; is the best the press could do was to get a lip reader...he made zero press comments he arrived quietly smiling at his father's coronation and left equally quietly a few hours later.  That he did not join the family made sense, it's like going to a wedding when you are estranged, nothing good can come out of it, you go to the church but skip the reception.

Harry has made a life of sorts in the US, his book (maybe even books) has been a best-seller, it is eminently readable and generally funny.  which is not something you can say about the royal family and its hangers-on.  The truth is that the "royal press" still found bad things to say about Harry and Megan when he went out of his way to be "out of sight", of course, he was in the third row with Andrew and his children who are as far from the royal family as is possible, plus Harry rented his cottage to one of his cousins (until his father decided that is should go to his disgraced uncle Andrew).  I sure hope that Andrew paid the Stg 7 million to Harry and Megan that they invested in the place...but no one is holding their breath.

Harry doesn't need the royal family, his Netflix deal and his book deal should ensure that he and his wife are fine for the next 50 years -- after all, he knows how his great-uncle lived in Paris for all these years!  In addition, what Harry has done for injured servicemen and women with his Invictus games cannot be taken away, and is a real thing with real benefits to servicemen and women across the commonwealth and beyond.

The desperation of the British press to find bad things to say about Harry, who was by the way, all smiles the day of the coronation, and even made a "hi" signal to his brother...really the only people who look like morons here are the royal courtiers and the British press that would find something bad to say about Harry when he said absolutely nothing to anybody during his stay... a bunch of fucking hypocrites

Spray painting Taylor Swift G650 aircraft (updated)

 First, a bit of paint will not harm anyone.  These climate activities are going to learn two things in the next few days:  (1) Trespassing at an airport is a felony almost anywhere in the world.  That means criminal prosecution.   (2) removing paint from an aircraft is expensive.   So these climate activists are about to find out the reach of the British criminal system and it will not be pleasant, the UK has very strict laws about that, I would be surprised if cleaning the aircraft of all the paint will cost less than $100,000.     I am sure that when they planned (premeditation) this little show they had a very valid logic to doing this.  Tonight, they are probably realizing the depth of their troubles.   I understand that in the UK it's a minimum one-year jail sentence.    Also, good luck travelling with a criminal trespass charge against you.  I am relatively certain that the airline industry will ...

Tariffs on inhabited Island

 Two seldom-visited islands, part of Australia, saw a massive increase in the tariffs they will face when exporting to the United States.   The 32,000 residents did not have much to say...being Penguines.   NO kidding, massive tariffs were imposed on Heard Island and McDonald Islands.  According to the Australian government, the last visitor to Heard was about a decade ago.   Never mind the 47% tariff on Madagascar, where the principal export is Vanilla and the GDP per capita is less than $500 a year. Not only a Stable Genus but evidently an administration that took all of two hours to proof the list of countries.    They also treated St Pierre & Miquelon, two islands part of France in the middle of the St Lawrence Gulf...

Britain, France and Egypt

 The voters realize now that the Conservative Praty desire to return to 19th-century dominance has driven its hatred of the EU.  The voters realize now that departure from the EU has accelerated Britain's decline and may soon make it irrelevant.  At best it will have to kiss American arses to maintain its standing.  For this, the conservatives were punished.  The decline of Britain was inevitable, competition from Frankfurt and Germany in Finance was bound to grow.  The core of Europe (aka Germany) is aging quickly Macron seems to be winning his bet, the left alliance that won the legislative elections will not remain united for long, since they disagree on about everything.   The Far right though it was about to assume power is once again relegated to the back of the bus.   It may draw its own conclusions, but not all of these are good for France.  The far-right has won nearly 1/3rd of the electorate, that is not something to be ig...
