This weekend The Sunday Times reported details of a blackmail plot against a Royal. The identity of the Royal involved in the alleged sex and drugs blackmail plot remains protected by court order. Do taxpayers have the right to know more or is the scandal a private matter for the Royal Family?
"So to all those who gleefully want to see this exposed. How would you like it if you were being blackmailed and the press found out about it and then plastered your name all over the tabloids?"...
If I considered myself to be superior to everyone else and pontificated in the manner of the royals I would expect to be scrutinized and my wrong doings exposed.
The 'paparazzi' didn't kill Diana; she sealed her own fate when she got involved with the royal mafia.
I'd be happy if I didn't see another royal 'news' item or photograph but there is a massive royal propaganda machine that strictly controls what we see; democracy? forget it!
Everbody is entitled to a private life even if they have a public persona.
After all, it was the invasion of her private life by the paparazzi that killed Diana.
So to all those who gleefully want to see this exposed. How would you like it if you were being blackmailed and the press found out about it and then plastered your name all over the tabloids?
Until they are abolished definitely not; we should be told the truth about the royal's activities instead of the royal propaganda drip fed to us on a daily basis.
If they (the royals) were reported on without the current restrictions imposed upon the press (gagging orders) the monarchy wouldn't last a year.
