Hidden Figures.

Should the Royal Family have kept a discreet distance, or even stayed away from remembrance services after the revelations about their tax affairs?

JJ is a troll. I've said it over and over again. He's only here to wind people up.

the Royals seem to have put all their money into Commonwealth banks, so that shows the true Empire spirit.

You've done something remarkable.

You've united all factions on AB.

This has never happened before.

Along with everyone else...it's a 'no' from me.

Just Jude - First of all, the Royal Family has not lasted this long by reacting publicly to anything the media says about them - and this of course is no exception.

Secondly, as has been pointed out - avoiding this Remembrance Ceremony would have been interpreted as a tacit admission of guilt - and they have actually done nothing wrong.

And thirdly, whether you wish to accept it or not, tax avoidance and tax evasion are entirely different concepts.

I am not defending the Royal Family, I am attacking your position, because it is indefensible as it stands.

Hopefully you have read and understood the posts here, and can leave the matter there.

should Harry have had a beard like that? You're not supposed to when in uniform, you know.

Anyone would think he was a naval man.

Prince harry is a civilian wearing an honorary uniform, so he isn't bound by army rules ad regulations.

Just-Jude is among the biggest 'winder-uppers' on this site - and still people continue to fall for it.

Yep, and there isn't even anything to get particularly wound up about. It's just a question.

Epic success you mean. 54 answers, and everyone jumping up and down with their Alans in a Brahms at the sheer audacity of the suggestion.

[woofgang]

I saw a lot of comments but no actual jumping up and down

[TWR]

No.

[ludwig]

Metaphorical jumping, and metaphorical Alans.

[woofgang]

not even a metaphorical hop in the air.....

I did raise a toe, turned out to be cramp.
