Journalist Stephen Bates has just dropped an opinion piece, in response to the BBC interview Prince Harry just sat through.
It all began when he turned to The Guardian and wondered, “Was the timing deliberate?”
Because “it did seem so as Prince Harry backed into the limelight once again” with the interview about his rejected security appeal for taxpayer-funded security.
And while Ms Bates feels “in the great scale of world events, or even of the royal family, Harry’s private security needs are probably not near the top of anybody’s priorities, but they were enough to knock the local election results and even the picture of a grinning Nigel Farage off Saturday’s front pages.”
Still he clapped back against the Duke by calling out his “latest intervention”, and saying, “if he thought his latest intervention was going to change minds at Buckingham Palace or” effect reconciliation efforts from the past, “he has surely got another think coming.”
