Everytime he tries to shut it down, he amplifies it.

I think it was Eden blaming Meghan for the crossbow incident and compromising Windsors safety that got the ball rolling on Twitter. Alas, PW new PR move is solving homelessness as a diversion.

I doubt he’ll solve homelessness but if he’s talking about turning royal buildings into shelters or affordable housing that seems like a good idea? It’s just that you need more than just the buildings, you’d also need funding, which will not come from him. The article says it’s just in the investigative phase so maybe he’s also fishing to see who might offer to fund this initiative. I’m cynical about everything that has to do with William though so it’s funny how people have pointed out affair and affordable have the same first letters.

Someone elsewhere pointed out that the affordable housing article is also connected to SEO, i.e. if you write “prince william aff” in google search what comes up now is “prince william affordable housing” comes up rather than “prince william affair”. So don’t expect ANY real plan to turn royal buildings into affordable housing. It is about changing the SEO so the word “affair” doesn’t come up first in google searches.

Jais, TOBB and Cannont are *always* “investigating” or “studying” a problem and never come up with solutions, workable or otherwise. It’s all just a soundbite, a tidbit to throw to the Rota Rats.
While Diana took Bitter Brother to see the plight of the homeless when he was a teen, she also worked to raise monies for charities to help them.
Bitter Brother hasn’t done squat since, other than run his mouth. And saying that he’ll do this to the Duchy is probably to piss off Charles (as it’s still HIS property).
Besides, doesn’t the Duchy and its income come WITH the PoW title?? No guarantee that Charles will bestow the title on Bitter Brother as soon as he is crowned King. He could make BB wait quite a while for it, toying with him to toe the line with more work in order to give the title to him and Dolittle.

@jan90067 – Baldy becomes the Duke of Cornwall, the minute QEII dies and Chucky III becomes king, as the eldest son and heir of the monarch. It is the title “Prince of Wales” that Chucky III must bestow on Baldy.

The Duchy of Cornwall and its income stream are independent of the POW title. One can be the Duke of Cornwall but not necessarily Prince of Wales since the heir to the throne automatically receives the former. You don’t have to be the eldest son to the monarch to be DOC, just the heir, but you do to be POW. And Charles can bestow the POW title on William at his discretion and at any time once he’s king. It would have been interesting if Charlotte were the heir to see if she became duchess of Cornwall in her own right in the future, or if that would have been reserved exclusively for male heirs as is the POW title.

No way will those mansions of the royals will be used to house the homeless. And why is he going on about what he will do as Prince of Wales when his grandmother is still alive. I hope Charles makes him wait to get that title.

You’re right BTB, thank you. This should teach me not to post before the first cup of coffee kicks in lol

I’m making my own correction about the Duke of Cornwall title. The possessor of the title is the eldest son and heir of the monarch. It is possible to be POW and not be the Duke of Cornwall since the heir gets the first title at the discretion of the monarch but doesn’t necessarily have to be restricted to the eldest son. Argh, not enough coffee for me either today!

Streisand Syndrome runs rampant – again.
I think we should expand the definition of insanity being the repetition of the same practice again and again in the hope of different results to include stupidity. The RF are as dumb as cupboards. They have the collective IQ of a blocked nostril. And their Men in Grey are fools to allow incadescent PWT to run amok.

You beat me to it. By doing this he made it so much worse and now it is out there that tax payer money was being used to
his affair. Sorry Willy, but it looks like 2022 is the year your chickens come home to roost 😁

Yeah I agree that Rose or one of her aristo friends leaked the story to the press to show Kate who has the real power in Norfolk. I also agree that William has moved on from Rose and onto his next mistress and there’s nothing Kate can or will do about it.

It could have been rose, but it might also have been the middletons. One article comes to mind (that dropped around the time of their wedding anniversary) that stated that in the beginning of their marriage it was imbalanced because kate was merely a commoner. But now, the marriage is much more equal and kate has more “power”.
I think they could have dropped the rumors to pull at williams strings.

We did get pictures of Kate carrying baby Archie on her way to Mustique when William was on his trip in Spain with Jecca. On the other hand, Kate disappeared when the rumors surfaced.

@chloe: Kate gains nothing from that story getting out except humiliation. She’s not an equal partner in that relationship because of her status as a commoner. No matter how much she tries the aristos do not accept her and will take William’s side in any fight between the Middletons and the Windsors.

@chioe: I agree that they’re never going to divorce but if Kate were to ever step out of line the press and the establishment would smear her and family ten times worse that Charles and the establishment did Diana. Kate knows that she has no friends among the aristos and the Palace and just like Diana she won’t be able to leave the country because of the children.

Kalana, that was one of the many times the Middletons have slapped William publicly for his straying. Kate was photographed with George at a remote airport on their way to Mustique. She didn’t protest the pictures being published. Clear sign the Middletons wanted it known William was with Jecca while Kate was on family holiday. A week after that, Kate got her 10-day baby-free holiday in The Maldives with William.
When he strays publicly, they slap him down publicly to get what they want. The Midds are not victims nor are they powerless; they have many close ties to tabloids and tabloid editors.
