From the reports I have seen she was responding to a photo of social media that was calling George a dickhead, by posting a statement about white royal privilege. Whilst I am anti monarchy myself these comments are in very poor taste. I dislike the principal of the monarchy but that is not the fault of a three year old and people should respect that he should be off limits until he can make his own contribution to the world

Precisely this - although I am very anti-monarchy, the sort of person who can be publicly verbally attacking infants needs to take a long hard look at themselves imo.

Hopefully she will be dismissed from her & £80,000 per year job,

For those interested in the facts...

dont go to the Washington Times which appears to omit the offending tweet from their story. while the rest of her opinion might or might not have merit, she wrote as reported "I know he’s only two years old, but Prince George already looks like a ****ing dickhead.". sound pretty much like criticising the kid himself, for his appearance. playing the man and not the ball.

She didn't criticise the kid for himself, she pointed out he is the undeserving beneficiary of a ludicrous, toadying, servile, lickspittle culture of fawning. Which of course he is.

Angela Gibbins - she's alright :thumbsup:

She is correct in her default observations of monarchy but I do feel she could have had more tact in her wording.

'That cheeky grin is the innate knowledge he’s royal, rich, advantaged.....' I'm not sure that he is fully aware of his good fortune just yet, even less aware of his privilege.

I agree horrible women. How can a hard line socialist be put in this position at the British council. It is a joke, people like here hate most of the things this country stands for. Hope she'd sacked but doubt it.

I agree the woman in question is out of order, but the sickly sycophancy of the British media, in relation to the Royal family, and especially the heir to the thrones family, never fails to make me a tad nauseous
