The British press is part of the deal. It comes with the territory.
Public money, the public has the right to video and photograph...and comment.

Hmm.  So,  famous people being harassed by papparazzi,  is that also justified by "comes with the territory"?  How about pretty women in attractive clothes being sexually assaulted, does that also come with the territory?   Gay couples holding hands,  getting harassed and beaten up?   CwtT?   Just curious what sorts of ill treatment of people is okay because some segment of society decides there's a right to invade a person's space.   It almost sounds like you want to own a piece of somebody...

---Iran’s only female Olympic medalist said she defected from the Islamic Republic in a blistering online letter that describes herself as “one of the millions of oppressed women in Iran.”---

Drone attacks on Iranian terrorist leaders, such a perfect fit. Blown up holy warriors plan no atrocities.

It just passes the buck down to their subordinates.

“Australia had its hottest and driest year on record in 2019. Butler puts the blame squarely on humans, who he says have not respected the Earth, mismanaging the land and continuing to burn fossil fuels.

"I think this is a wake-up call not only for Australia but for the rest of the world. You cannot just destroy the land. You cannot destroy what keeps you alive."

Butler's father told him a long time ago, he says, that the white man may have to destroy himself in order to save himself. Butler is worried that may be coming true.”

And OMG, he violated school policy, but "The board’s decision stated that it found no evidence that rose to the level of immoral conduct."
Well gee, Josh. Glad to know you have some standards.
As pathetically low as they are.

Says the man who supports a president who illegally separated thousand children from their families, blocked legal asylum applications, permits lies to those whose cases are in process, etc, not to mention his predatory behavior.

You accept Trump's violation of almost every policy he's heard of!

You can believe it or not, Ripley. That (1960) was the day that had the hottest single temperature in a single place, but it was not the hottest day.

"Australia recorded its hottest day on record on Wednesday, with an average maximum temperature of 41.9C (107.4F)."

If he's destroyed himself, then there's nothing left of himself to save.

Dry Australia?
No worries...just build another 7 desalination plants for Sydney, and build others all around the coastline...and pipe the water inland.

Hot Australia?
No worries...just build some new coal-fired [the emissions are reportedly very low] power stations to run aircon...until someone invents batteries to store solar energy.

It was 48.9 C degrees in Penrith western Sydney last week...at 3pm [clocks forward one hour]. 24C at 8am or so.
It was 47.9 C degrees in Penrith western Sydney in 1935.

LOL

Women ...I know a lot about.
The British Royalty ...I know a lot about.
Blacks...I know a little about.
"Know your place" I know everything about.  There is a 'place'  for everyone in every scenario in life.
Is the kid in the mailroom the CEO?
Is "Susie in accounts" the Managing Director?
Is a Duchess a Queen?

Royalty is a job... a work hard job [well it is in Britain anyway.]

It's not a permanent holiday in fantasyland.

Women you are delusional about.
British loyalty you are confused about.
Blacks you are clueless about.
And knowing your place you are dead on about how the upper class wants the lower class and the minorities to heed.

. Women...are in plain sight.
. British Royalty I have lived since birth...mommy dearest was a big fan.
The African-American Duchess and her man want to leave the Monarchy and rack off to Canada? … no worries, they should hand back their titles, cross themselves off the gravy train passenger list and go earn their own money like they have promised to do. And stay away.
Leaving the 'Racist' and Sexist' cards in the trash where they belong.
Get jobs, keep quiet about the Monarchy, and have nice lives.
.

Hahahahaha!

"plain sight"

You crack me up.

Yes, in plain sight... in the paper every day...some are murderers, liars, drug dealers, thieves, scammers, cheaters, deceivers, abusers, assault your face with a broken glass etc, assault partners, try to lure with 'love' and take men's homes and money/life savings.
Not 'exalted goddesses'.

Once upon a time if a woman were going to hit you on the head with a frypan ...you could restrain her arms, kiss her, and she would melt into your arms.
Not these days.

Are these the white men you are talking about, the ones who having destroyed themselves have nothing left to save?

Sounds about right if so.

Two of the most overpopulated, and largest CO2 emitting countries, hardly have a White man in them at all.
