There has been much reporting on those topless photos, both on TV, in the Newspapers and on AnswerBank.

Should Kate's husband (who is after all a serving RAF officer) carry out his duty along side his Brother in Afghanistan instead of swanning off to exotic distant lands on yet another 'honeymoon'?

If he did, then perhaps Kate instead of worrying herself about a few photos of her boobs, could become a true 'Princess of the people' by being 'at one' with all those other serviceman's Wives, Partners, Mums, and 'Mums to be' who face each day for 4/6 months anguishing whether or not their loved one's come home safe and sound and in one piece.

/// you are trying to compare the families of serving military personnel with one couple (who are hardly representative of all the rest of us). ///

And I ask again, why is he then a member of the Armed Services?

They may not be any 'ordinary couple' but as a RAF Officer he should be representative if not of us, but of the RAF at least.
He is!
He's a serving 'Search and Rescue' pilot.......

Plenty of 'Searching and Rescuing' to be had in Afghanistan.
As has already been said (even if you are finding it convenient to ignore) he is *not* trained for desert combat conditions.
AOG I don't often post in News but when scanning through some threads think you are often hard done by. However, in this instance you seem to have excelled yourself with the ridiculousness of your arguments...........
Be sensible, how can they be like normal serving officers and anyway William and Kate are standing in for the Queen & Duke so that they can have a bit of time off. I wonder what you will be doing when you're 87 a 92!
He'll still be trying to convince us all that his is the only opinion that is worthwhile.

I am not trying to convince anyone, I simply asked the question,

SHOULDN'T WILLIAM LIKE HIS BROTHER HARRY ALSO DO HIS BIT?

And opened it up for debate, how you and others have chosen to conduct the debate is entirely up to you.

I can never understand why some of you get so nasty.

Anyway thank you all for helping me to pass what is after all (weather-wise) a rather miserable afternoon.
Moi?
Nasty?
It was done with a :o)
he is, he is currently away with his wife acting as a representative of Her Majesty the Queen who just happens to be his Grandmother. He isn't swanning anywhere as far as i can see.
whilst we are in this mood, would you like to be him, or indeed any member of the Royal Family, because i know i wouldn't.
AOG, he's doing his bit - and in any case, the armed services are deployed in other places apart from Afghanistan. Not every soldier sailor or airman in current ranks is out there - he does other things, as to the people who work for the MOD elsewhere. It's not the only posting people can have. I don't know why you are so exercised about it.
you have to read down a little way to find out what his duties are now, that is if you care to.

Who wants to see any member of the royal family with their clothes on ,never mind with their clothes off. ????
bit late for a honeymoon AOG, Kate's pregnant - you heard it here 1st !
No, it's her bodyguard, tambo :-) http://www.express.co...of-personal-bodyguard

and very oddly, there's a programme on channel 5 in the week speculating about what would happen if they have a baby - seems real dregs TV to me! - she said she wouldn't get pregnant in Jubilee year, anyway, didn't she?
Is airmiles andy claiming ,job seekers allowance,now that he is not working??
"...carry out his dutly along side his Brother in Afghnistan..."

Is this a serious question? Neither will be anywhere near any theatre of war in any shape or form. Those of you deluded enough to think that either William, or the spare heir to the throne would be allowed within 100 miles of any so called danger needs your heads read.

Both are in the military simply because it is 'expected' of them, but if you think for one nanusecond that they are placed in danger should try joining the real world.

Remember the last time Harry supposedly was 'on the frontline' in Afghanistan? A very carefully choreographed piece of film showed him firing a heavy machine gun - all by himself, not another squaddie in sight? That was most probably filmed amongst some sand dunes in Dubai.

William's claim to fame so far has been taking a helicopter for a jolly to visit Kate at her home a couple of years ago. He's now doing the only 'duty' he or Harry are meant to do - swanning around advertising their granny's jubilee year. Harry did his 'advertising' in Vegas recently.
Kate said that the media were greedy ,thats rich coming from her.
Again, please be sure not to let any facts, whatsoever, get in the way of your preconceived prejudices...
