Jeremy Clarkson condemned over Meghan column in the Sun
Outcry after presenter writes he is dreaming of the day when she is made to parade naked through the streets
A Jeremy Clarkson column in the Sun about the Duchess of Sussex has provoked outcry online, with social media users labelling it vile, horrific and abusive.
In an article for the paper published on Friday, Clarkson wrote that he loathed Meghan on a cellular level. He said he was dreaming of the day when she is made to parade naked through the streets of every town in Britain while the crowds chant, Shame! and throw lumps of excrement at her.
He added: Everyone whos my age thinks the same way.
The comments have drawn widespread condemnation. The comedian John Bishop tweeted that the remarks were a blatant appeal to incite humiliation and violence on a woman.

On edit: People are publishing that the queen consort hosted the lunch, but it seems she attended the lunch as guest, and there is also confusion about when the Clarkson comments came out.

(1,609 posts)The Queen consort of England runs in the same circles as men like Pierce Morgan and Jeremy Clarkson. She has been photographed with them cheerily having a good time. Both Jeremy Clarkson and Pierce Morgan have been abusing Meghan for years. YEARS. People socialize with those that are like them. They're friends. What example is she showing the people of England?

Geez...
And why are you calling her a skank???
Charles and Camilla dated before he dated Diana.
Charles married Diana and ran around on Diana with Camilla.
I'm not a Camilla fan. (I'm totally neutral about her, but I certainly wouldn't call her a skank This is 2022 and I'm no longer in high school)

Maybe that is why William will not stand up for his brother.. bow down to the bloodsuckers or be destroyed.. Phillip made a very bad bargain with them (the tabloids) in the day..

Evergreen Emerald
(13,069 posts)Making assumptions I see without knowing the facts. Sounds familiar.
Evergreen Emerald
(13,069 posts)They distorted, lied, manipulated in an effort to make as much money as they could at the expense of Harry's family. They provided no facts. And much of there statements have been proven false by people in the know. There is evidence of their distortions and lies, and people ignore it.
There is alot of blaming the family for what the media says and does. They cried about the media's treatment of Megan, and minimized the poor treatment Kate received in the past.
Megan and Harry's behavior is creepy.
I see that some people do not need much convincing, or facts, or proof before they attack and just believe. For example, this creepy journalist is known for his outrageous behavior. The idea that because he went to the same event that Camilla attended makes him a friend? It was not her event--or did you just not bother to read facts before attributing his statement to the royal family.
Additionally, I am sure that many of you would --and have said similar things about Trump with no hesitation. He is attempting to destroy Democracy. They are attempting to destroy the Royal family. Many in England are disgusted by their behavior.
The Royal family is above the Kardashian type low class fighting. I expect them not to respond.
CatWoman
(79,302 posts)the press, as well as people close to the royal family, are proving their claims (H&M) true.

And if anything, I find your vague litany of accusations creepy just like the British tabloids.

(3,608 posts)The Windsors' courtiers? Lackeys? Frankly, their behavior is "creepy.
Why should they be believed over anything M & H have said? How exactly are they trying to "destroy the royal family?" Really, unless the Windsors themselves respond publicly to everything who would know what to believe.
They are an ancient institution, set in their ways, and want to protect their interests seemingly at all costs. H & M have been treated horribly by that family.

(25,415 posts)They're a back-up if Parliament dissolves. Parliament runs the country, but the King is kept abreast "just in case". So, they do serve a political purpose besides tourism. They are supposed to be "non-political, non-partisan".
UK has worse problems: Brexit for one. Who is their PM? According to Harry, those tabloids drive parliament elections and issues such as Brexit. The Monarchy has nothing to do with Brexit.
I blame Parliament, the conservative party, and the tabloids and people like Clarkson for this.
Some countries have presidents in "name only". For instance: Modi runs India, but India also has a president. His political position is similar to the UK's monarchy. I couldn't tell you India's president name without looking him up. But he's there...somewhere...
