Prince Charles On The Tube
37 Answers
OK I dont mind Charlie, he's harmless but did anyone see him and Camilla on the news, travelling on the Tube today at Kings Cross? Surrounded by fussing bowing @rse licking hangers on, who wouldn't let any ticket-paying peasants near him, he couldn't even take off his own coat without someone helping him, it makes me sick. He travelled one stop, had a whole carriage to himself and the carriage was spotlessly clean. Poor Charlie, he doesn't know what the real world is. What on earth was the point of it all? But its not his fault, its all the hangers on I can't stand ... and we pay their wages !

I got off the tube at Farringdon station at 10:00 yesterday and couldn't get out of the station. Not for the dozen or so coppers who were lining each platform, nor for the security men who were protecting the Royal party, nor, indeed, the TfL mob who were showing him around (There were a hell of a lot of them, it seemed).
No, it was the bloody rubberneckers, tourists and whatever who were soooo excited to see them that the rest of us who had places to be were basically ignored and left to push our way through the throng. Made me 20 minutes late for an appointment.

Easier said than done methinks.
Take for instance Cameron visiting the troops in Afghan, or on the shop floor etc.
Just look at those individuates, with all their smiles and head nodding etc, wouldn't one love to know what is really going through their minds?

He really is rather more out of touch with the lives of normal people than he imagines. He had one of his offices put out a statement to remove certain myths from the public mind; apparently he has been known to squeeze his own toothpaste, and the story of his having numerous eggs boiled at once and then testing them is much exaggerated; but the effect of it was to leave the impression that he still had servants for almost everything,including trivial matters, more even than the most self-indulgent billionaire, and that was regarded by him as leading a perfectly normal life.
He probably no more wanted to be there than some people wanted to see him there. He did not choose to go -he was invited, and part of his role as a member of the Royal Family is to do this sort of boring stuff. The 'hangars on' as you describe them are more than likely security staff that any high profile person would have -be it prince, pop star or footballer. I'm not a royalist but would rather see them out and about earning their keep doing some sort of a task, rather than holed up on their country estate killing animals for sport.
