Should The Royals Become ‘ Woke? ‘

[naomi24]

At the recent BAFTA awards ceremony, Prince William spoke of the need for ‘diversity’ - something that was noted to have been lacking in the nominations. The question is, should the Royals take a leaf out of the Queen’s book and remain neutral, or should they, in effect, take sides by involving themselves in the issues of the day thereby exposing themselves to potential criticism? Personally, I think the Queen has the right idea. Her 'Never complain, never explain' philosophy has stood her in good stead for almost 70 years - and she remains hugely respected.

"definition of Woke : //alert to injustice in society, especially racism.// "

Is that the same as "the bien-pensant woke" ?

Would 'Royals' ending anomalous privilege be considered 'woke' ?

//It's a term that's often used as a way of having a dig at people//

Didn't Billy Cotton start his shows with Wokey Wokey back in the mists of time?
