Good luck having rights while working for any of the royals
https://londondaily.com/buckingham-palace-banned-ethnic-minorities-from-office-roles-papers-reveal
The existence of royals means the state that has them believes people are not born equal, therefore any state with royalty does not actually believe in human rights or enforce them by definition.
Bang on point. During this debacle the royals have maintained that it wont affect the larger royal family, because it's not a family business. While declaring that god appointed them above all else by virtue of being from the royal family. It's time to get rid of them. And I don't just mean eject them and let them run with the money and property. Every last penny in reparations. This foreign occupation of the UK has gone on too long.
"not a family business" carrying a lot of weight there eh
An unfortunate (to understate things more than a little) hold over from the days when the royals were the state.
Given that the MET police have been implicated in the files, and their current stance of "We are arresting you for holding a sign that says you're against genocide" It looks a lot like the police don't believe in human rights either.
Well, technically, we (Brits/Canadians) all work for the royals.
As ever, the rich stay rich and everyone else greases themselves against the wheels in their service :/
Not to sound like some kind of left wing exteemist but it really would be nice if our work actually went towards making the planet a better place, instead of giving those with the power to make the rules taller towers and deeper bunkers.
Racist fucks doing racist fuckery
Same as it ever was
