Scottish Snow

My friend Mark from Under The Lights captured this absolute stunner of a sunset last night. Orkney really does deliver some of the most spectacular sunsets around — and this one is pure magic.

@JenCarsonTaylor @johnnyburke66 Remember, it's his life's work to save journalism. He has the correct, not distorted view, of the world. Forget facts. He has announced his status in issued statements, court papers, & interviews and this is his duty because of it. 🙄

He keeps telling us he was born a prince, will always be a prince. He’s not just anyone. He wants all the privilege that comes with being the son of the king but behaves in an unbecoming manner. You don’t use your position to influence or (implied) threaten a journalist or to bully an entire publication with censorship through the courts.

(almost) incredible from the excellent Jan Moir : ‘On the first day of the trial, Harry’s PR man swaggered up to me to tell me Harry didn’t like the tone of one of my pieces (I had suggested the prince might be a liar). Who is Harry to enforce what is acceptable to think and what isn’t? He doesn’t even live here. If his team had time to try and bully me, what would they do to other, more vulnerable people? The emotional, weak celebs he lured into this case. Or Doreen Lawrence: what does her life look like, now that a share of the £50 million legal bill is hanging over her head?’ ‘To the prince, this ruling is, by contrast, more or less risk-free. He can declare it “a complete and obvious whitewash” and insinuate it is part of a conspiracy to “exonerate the Mail” without worrying someone will take his job away, or how he’s going to pay the massive fees. There will always be someone to swoop out of nowhere to save him as they have done many times. But until those costs are settled, what will everyone else’s life feel like? It took nearly three years to sort out Wagatha. As for the legal profession, I’ve never seen a judge so livid as during the Mail trial.’ Link ⬇️

@MarburyvVeryMad @twodogs2023 His office is in the same building as the House Defendants.

@twodogs2023 No idea

What if I tweeted this picture and wrote, “Marc Diller gave me this picture on 6/25”? Could KR’s team submit it to the court, and the court would just believe them? Would Diller be barred from deposing Karen? I doubt it. But the reverse just happened to Karen today.

@little_foot777 @chikfromthebrix @DoctorTurtleboy May I please point out that the House Defendants attorneys' office is also in the same building as KR's? Ok, carry on.

What have they leaked for 4 years? They haven't leaked a single thing. Giving a journalist information is not leaking impounded documents. Who gives a shit if it happened at their office?? You think her lawyers are the only one walking around that massive office?? YOU are the one that was dropped on your head. Seriously. There is NO PROOF that they leaked anything to anyone. Again, more misinformation.

Here is a picture of Michael Proctor sitting outside his deposition on June 25 pretending to have a panic attack so that he could avoid going back in. He is now alleging that this information came from Karen Read, but as you can see from this still photograph, it obviously came from another source who witnessed this public display of shame.

@JenCarsonTaylor @uhurumzalendo1 I wonder what they talked about after everything that we have learned recently. Here is a smidge of the old stuff that doesn't even touch upon anyone other than Camilla, since she was there.

@uhurumzalendo1 I can’t even speak right now but I fully get you. I truly do do not understand how he AND CAMILLA can do this.

all so he can appear to be the forgiving, conciliatory father. I will wait to take my lead from W&C but I’m feeling something never experienced before: rage towards my monarch. 🤬 hairy and the wretched woman desperately wanted blue light security escort for themselves and the children. sued HM Govt for it. now we know why.

Have you ever heard of the Ghillie Dubh? Only found in one specific wood around Loch an Draing near Gairloch, this creature of Scottish Folklore is as unique as his surroundings!

@nolink29 "His attitude toward women is he's allowed to touch whoever he likes because of who he is," one of his school pals complained. "He's a terrible showoff," they added, claiming he kept a picture parade of the women she slept with at school.

Harry is a vile piece of shit. Take a read.

@MinihahaNew @freedom_007__ It was so much worse:

@SnowScottish @freedom_007__ He couldn’t get in to agricultural college, so they gave him a spot at Sandhurst so he could wear a uniform as a costume and play Xbox on taxpayer money

Prince Harry’s druggy, sleazy and very questionable past is a ticking time bomb that will become the next major royal scandal. He has been shielded for decades by the “men in grey suits,” and he is shaping up to be Andrew 2.0. He's just Like his godfather, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. He has repeatedly used and disrespected them for his own sleazy sexual gratification, discarded them brutally, and then forced them to sign NDAs to keep quiet.

@Canellelabelle @nikii9017 He's always been a mess.

@nikii9017 He has all the trait of an abuser. I know if you look and dig under those NDAs you will find sexual assault and sexual harassment hidden if not outright rape.

The more you hear and learn about the true Harry, the more repulsive and sinister the portrait become. Harry has zero loyalty to anyone. He always spit on the hand that helped him. That is why, the people who once protected him, always end up turning on him. Jason Knauf turned on him; Sophie Chandauka turned on him; Now it is Charlotte Griffith who is turning on Harry after he tried to vilify her in court and she did so in a bombshell article.🔥 Read this part of her article: "I can remember as if it were yesterday, the night I threw on a navy blue H&M dress, grabbed a nerve-settling glass of champagne, and went downstairs to be introduced to Prince Harry for the very first time. It was a Friday in December 2011, and we’d been invited to a shooting weekend at a 4,000-acre estate in Hampshire that belonged to the wealthy family of a Bristol University graduate I’d befriended in Ibiza that summer." "[...] I was a 27-year-old trainee journalist working on a gossip column for a very different British institution – The Mail on Sunday. According to the table plan, the prince and I were to sit next to each other at dinner. And because Harry was doubtless wary about being introduced to an H&M-clad stranger, he decided to kick start our relationship by subjecting me to a little test." "From his pocket, he removed a small white pill. Then he held it up to my face, popped it on to my tongue, and said with a smile: ‘Now I know I can trust you!’ So began a short and utterly surreal friendship with the ebullient young man who was then third in line to the throne."🫠 Hmmmmmk..... In what culture is it normal behavior to walk around with pills in your pocket and attempt to insert a pill into a stranger's mouth as way of greeting? What happened to the good ole "Hi my name is...what is your name?"😵‍💫 Charlotte G. Writes as a way of explaining Harry's ludicrous behavior: "Harry was, back then, a well-regarded Army officer whose sense of humour and record of public service made him one of the Royal Family’s best PR assets. Though prone to over-doing it – photos of him falling out of nightclubs had become a staple of the news pages – his natural, happy-go-lucky charisma meant that occasional private indiscretions (aside from ones involving Nazi fancy dress) were, by and large, ignored."🫠 [...]Take that white pill he’d so brazenly stuck in my mouth (which I discreetly removed and folded into a napkin soon afterwards). It was almost certainly paracetamol, rather than something more sinister. But I couldn’t be entirely sure."🤦🏽‍♀️ This explanation actually makes things even worse. Harry was indeed an officer in the UK military, representing both the Military AND the RF. Yet, notice how he never asked for her consent BEFORE invading her privacy? Notice how at no point was there the "Ha-ha this was just sweets, I got you!" moment, that would have made this a "charming" jokster prank. Actually, Griffith was just not sure if it was paracetamol or worse, a hard drug, which Harry was known for doing back then. And she admitted in the article being puzzled and shocked by his brazen act. Harry casually invaded Charlotte's boundaries without any prior consent nor care because he was so sure she would keep her mouth shut and obey. He was in his crowd of 16 peers. They were away from the regular world, He was in a familiar elite turf and she was not. She was nervous, she was intimidated by who he was and where she was, and Harry took advantage of that🔥 And there is nothing remotely "charming" nor "funny" about this scene. To call this "Charming", is exactly how abusers and bully get away with violating other people's boundaries and hurting them. Harry casually breaks the rules, say and do whatever he wants, to whomever he pleases without care, because he does not fear any repercussions🔥 Yes, Harry acts with the arrogance of someone who feels untouchable and above the rules. He has zero self-awareness.👌🏽 The question is What do all those NDAs that the RF have placed around Harry's past really cover? Because It appears Harry and Andrew have a lot more in common than we thought. The only difference is that Andrew's sinister deeds have already been revealed. Harry's deeds are still protected by the palace and he is still a counsellor of state☕

@messiecondo @chrisshipitv @ChathamHouse If only there was a court decision, or two, that explained to him that the press and curious onlookers were his problem and not the taxpayers.

@chrisshipitv @ChathamHouse There are less than 20 people in that photo, including one Sussex fan. If his own security team can’t handle that, he should ask for a refund.

So as he has no state-funded security - it seems Prince Harry’s team have asked the Met Police to help police the crowds (mostly media) who are at the front of @ChathamHouse awaiting Harry’s departure…
