What’s wrong with the local comprehensive? If state schools are good enough for everyone else, why not the future king? Meanwhile, we’re expected to keep footing the bill. One rule for them. Another for us. Abolish the monarchy.

Well he's a prince, so naturally they want him networking with the worst entitled parasitic sociopaths the UK has to offer.

Unlike William and Kate, I couldn't afford to put my son's name down for Eton. But I did manage to get him on the waiting list for an NHS dentist, which is at least a start.

'Muslims are not like us' and 'will never integrate' - says man who chose Peter Mandelson as his best man and remains friends with him despite the fact that following Epstein's conviction for soliciting prostitution from a minor, Mandelson called him his "best pal," wrote "I think the world of you", and advised fighting the conviction.
Excellent news for Britain. He's a shit-stirring gobshite.

The fact that your government has made it illegal for me to answer yes is a damning testament to your flagrant disregard for civil liberties. This may be targeted at those taking action against the genocide, but it sets a very dangerous precedent that puts everyone at risk.
Replying to @ZackPolanski
Do you support the Palestine Action group?
Community note
Important context: Answering yes to this question is illegal in the UK and punishable by 14 years in prison. Do not answer yes if you ever plan on visiting the UK in your lifetime. cnn.com/2026/06/15/uk/…

A senior activist with Reform UK claimed to have prior knowledge that migrants in Northern Ireland would be targeted by rioters who set fire to family homes last week. Grant Calder, who campaigned for Thomas Kerr MSP during the Scottish Parliament election, claimed on Facebook on Tuesday that “there are going to be protests and there’s going to be trouble, including migrants getting put out of houses and hostels”. He added that protests in the province would be held in “New Lodge [Catholic area of Belfast] and the Shankill Road [Protestant area], where local prods [Protestants] are much more switched on to the dangers of immigration.” Migrant’s homes in Shankill Road were later attacked theferret.scot/reform-uk-nor…
