William has maintained dignity since Harry made millions trashing royals – as it stands, he can’t forgive that betrayal
Brothers grim
WHAT a sorry mess petulant Prince Harry made of his life in Britain.
How aghast his mother would have been that his brother cannot bear to be in the same room as Harry speaks from 5,000 miles away during an event honouring her memory.
But who can blame William?
He has publicly maintained his dignity since Harry and Meghan abandoned royal duty for California and banked millions pouring bile on the Family.
As it stands he cannot forgive that betrayal and fair enough.
Nor can he trust a brother so desperate for fresh material for his media performances.
Contrition doesn’t seem part of Harry’s vocabulary.
His own absurd sense of victimhood and entitlement demands an apology from the family HE wronged before he would ever rebuild bridges.
Meanwhile William, with his wife and dad struggling with serious illnesses, is left shouldering an enormous burden.
No wonder he’s bitter about his runaway brother.
Rayner cloud
WITH Labour hot favourites to win power voters have every right to know precisely how the party’s deputy leader swerved a property tax many ordinary people DO pay.
For weeks Angela Rayner has uttered the same bland, rehearsed answer: An “expert” told her she had nothing to pay.
She hopes the Press will just move on.
It’s not good enough.
Rayner may owe thousands, either on the house she sold in 2015 or the one she and her then husband sold a year later.
She keeps insisting the first was her “principal” residence, rendering the profit not taxable.
Even if that was so — and it is highly disputable — married couples are not allowed two principal residences, so tax should then have been paid on the other.
Was it? Where’s the receipt?
And if not, why not? If Rayner WAS advised she owed nothing, why?
Where is the email, or letter?
Are HMRC happy with her explanation?
Is Keir Starmer seeking answers, as he would obsessively had a Tory done the same?
Every time Rayner tries to waft it away, the case gets murkier.
Choc shock
WE are in a shameful state when supermarkets have to display single chocolate bars in secure boxes to thwart thieves.
But shoplifting is now an epidemic.
Stores have to staunch their losses and protect staff from having to confront these often violent criminals.
The problem is that punishments for shop thieves are all but non-existent and police have given up.
Three months ago we beseeched them and our politicians and courts to end this scourge.
Has anything improved? Has it hell.
