King Charles can provide security for Prince Harry and his family if he wanted to. All he has to do is travel with them and security would be automatically provided but he dislikes his son and wife and has no desire to see his children. The British media tries to portray King Charles as a loving father who wants to see his grandchildren, but he and Prince William are coldhearted and don't care if Prince Harry and his family are endangered.

Britain should have a law which states that if a member of the Royal Family is unfit, he can be removed from his position. The reason is that a member of the Royal Family has to be popular to appeal not only to Britons but the world. A coldhearted person is not going to be popular and should be declared unfit. King Charles and Prince William should be investigated to see if they were and are the ones behind the media attacks on Prince Harry and his wife. If they are, Prince Harry should be made King.

The British government should also investigate whether King Charles and Prince William deserve their salary. Both are millionaires but don't appear to do much to deserve it. Their salary should be equal to their salary when they served in the military since like the military, they get free food and lodging.

Harry could just pay for his own security

[–] panthera_@lemmy.today 1 points 2 days ago

No, his security team does not have access to the intelligence available to British law enforcement.

Yeah, I don't think it was the being able to afford it that was the troubling bit, it was the having to arrange it at the very last minute that was the struggle.

With that rule the Royal family would cease to exist within a generation.

Oh no. What would we do?

I think it was discretion.

Harry and Megan have been on TV discussing what goes on in other peoples homes. I wouldn't want them in my home after they did that in the past. They cant be trusted not to go off and sell stories or market the stay.

Prince Harry suspected that King Charles and Prince Williams were behind the media attacks on his wife. That was not private. King Charles and Prince Williams present disregard for Prince Harry and his family's safely is evidence that Prince Harry was correct.
