Discussion
king thing ?

Apparently Harry was told to do one when he wanted Megs connecting - Royals were concerned that once a phone line is involved, no guarantee the meeting isn't being recorded.
Exactly the point I made. Pretty much common sense. when you get rumours of impending "tell all" interviews you would be pretty reckless to have phone calls where you REALLY couldn't tell who was listening in. If someone else had been by chance or design and all the intricate details got out.I mean Charles is no stranger to having his calls leak out so I can't really see him saying "yea great idea Megsy "

No to a ref.
Yawn, make some bloody effort to be original.
Well, it’s obviously yes to a referendum, of course they cannot possibly lose due to their massive support? Yawn, make some bloody effort to be original.
As for original, you are the same poster who tried to make out ol’ jug ears was hard working, then got shot down in flames?
Original would be changing (or abolishing), but it’ll take something quite momentous to happen. Fingers crossed.

The actual line was even more indicative.
"The Duchess of Sussex will try to attend via conference".
Wonder how hard she "tried", as though it's difficult in any way to plan to be on an important meeting...

However, there are ways of ensuring the actual line isn't tapped or recording.
There are measures to control operational security so that it is very unlikely someone would use an external device to record.
Neither apply in this case. It's entirely reasonable yo want to prevent any possibility of that meeting being recorded on someone's iPhone, and then released (or threatened to be released) to the press...

Ah yes. Our future king and his 'tampon' convo with his now wife...I mean Charles is no stranger to having his calls leak out so I can't really see him saying "yea great idea Megsy "
Obvs, we can see he why he might now think that it is crucial to preserve the dignity of the institution at all costs.

Frogmore House is the bit I really don’t get. 5 km from the end of the Northern runway of LHR, the runway which carries nearly of the landings, they have ‘planes thundering overhead every 90 seconds. I live about 15 kmfrom the airport and it is tolerable there, you couldn’t pay me enough to live in Frogmore.
Are we sure they did actually ever live there (I mean they probably used it for a few nights here and there but did they definitely ever live there for an extended period of time). As far as I know there are zero photos of them coming or going, or strolling around Windsor Great Park with/without the baby, or visiting any nearby shops / pubs / restaurants etc. Which when you think about it is potentially strange for someone complaining about overbearing press intrusion, no?Whereas photos are certainly "out there" of Wills in the pub, Kate popping to Waitrose, taking the kids to school etc, just going about life. I believe Kate has even been spotted in The Range, near Sandringham.

They could have flown there for a start, Basically the old guard didn’t want her involved, pretty obvious really.
Yes because it makes total sense for half a dozen people to fly to Canada to meet one person who was here a few days before 
Especially when a couple of them are old, one of them very.
I can imagine they seized the opportunity of it just being them. Doubt it will have made any difference.
Anyway, the sooner we can leave them to their wish and they take up zero column inches and £0 of taxpayers' money, the better it will be for everyone.

If she wouldn’t come back, and the establishment wanted it sorted why not, they take trips all the time for less? Especially when a couple of them are old, one of them very.

And yes, it’s be nice to not have the first three pages writing about these worthless creatures, the comics could get back to important issues like Love Island.

No it doesn’t. Secure phone calls happen all the time. There is no guarantee that the meeting wasn’t being recorded.
Much harder to record an in-person meeting than it is to have people listen in or record a phone call, secure line or not.The security of long distance communications is serious business.
They will be as confident in the security of secure phone lines as they are of rooms which have been swept for bugs.
If Meghan couldn't access secure means of communications then that is one thing, but I highly doubt the concern would be the integrity of secure phone lines. It is also more plausible IMO that there would be concern about her end of the conversation being recorded than the security of the line.
Otherwise practically no high level long distance communication would take place, which is clearly not the case.
