There has NEVER been a bigger traitor in British history or a bigger rebel against the Crown than Prince Harry, nor a more High Treason guilty wife and one guilty of Extortion than Duchess Meghan Markle, has there?

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have been blasted for “blaming” members of the Royal Family as an “excuse” for MEGXIT when reportedly she never intended to remain a member of the Royal Family – her heart was NEVER really in it and we don’t buy she was driven out by racism (as even some of the projects she’s got involved with were seemingly in planning a couple of years ago)

Although Meghan Markle previously lyingly claimed she didn’t want to be a princess (the Sun on Sunday newspaper reported that Markle had fantasized about becoming a princess even before she married Harry), she now says ‘We can’t lose our titles’ and it’s all down to reports that, with the Queen, Prince Charles and Prince William are all said to be “deeply upset” by Harry’s outbursts, there are calls for him and Meghan to be stripped of their titles – which would wreak havoc on their Sussex brand, eh? [Meghan is releasing Markle, eh?].a children’s book, called The Bench, but her author’s credit surprisingly to some is: Meghan, Duchess of Sussex and not the plain name Meghan Markle

Harry’s defence will be that royal privilege is so stressful and debilitating with tiresome bow-ribbon cutting, endless statue unveiling, forever attending glittering functions, enduring never-ending banquet feasts, and continually facing noisy cheering public crowds, that it causes severe mental illness to both him an his wife that could only be relieved by a simple new life of luxury with little responsibility in in a lavish American LA retreat (but the couple’s first choice Canada didn’t work out (although Canadian mining magnate billionaire Giustra, 62, reportedly loaned them the seafront home close to Victoria, British Columbia for free) when the Canadians stopped providing security – and the tight pair didn’t want to pay tax in two countries), that includes residing NOW in a £14.5million mansion in LA (surviving in a privileged 8-bedroom, 12-bathroom, Tuscan-style villa property) which is next to a host of famous names (the Meghan Markle and Prince Harry couple are believed to be house guests of home owner 50-year-old tycoon Tyler Perry) and are neighbouring with red carpet stars such as Katy Perry, Jennifer Lawrence, Sir Elton John, Rod Stewart and Samuel L Jackson; they are further relieved by giving numerous extraordinarily personal expose interviews undermining Harry’s royal family accusing them collectively of “neglect”, while former actress Meghan’s excuse will be that she suffers racial discrimination and there’s an element of truth in that as she’s indeed a loud mouth yank who told Oprah she feels ‘liberated’ to be able to speak for herself – plus the USA’s background history being that the British government and King never considered the American colonists as their own citizens. which was the second among the three main reasons, which provoked the 13 colonies’ colonists to break free from Great Britain. (And also take into account that the former King Edward VIII, famously abdicated, endangering the very survival of the British monarchy, in December 1936 to marry the then American divorcee Wallis Simpson). Despite her past mental problems coping as a minor royal, Megan now believes she’s strong enough both to run for President of the United States and is then capable of being President and Leader of the free world with control of the nuclear button no less – no stress in that role for her then?

[In 1776, America voted to sever their political ties to Great Britain. The American Declaration of Independence was adopted on 4 July, a date that is now celebrated as ‘Independence Day’ or the ‘Fourth of July’]

This June, the Wessex’s finally shared their reaction to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s explosive March interview with Oprah Winfrey – when posed the question if either of them had watched the televised interview, Prince Edward jokily replied: “Oprah who?” while Sophie quipped: “Yes, what interview?”

The Earl 57 said pointedly the job is ‘not one you can walk away from’ which isin direct contrast somewhat to Prince Harry’s attitude, who did precisely that very thing some 10 months ago when he walked away without a qualm from ‘Royal Duties’ and the ‘Military’s Respect’ (Prince Harry made his position with the military untenable when he turned his back on Queen and Country – there was no way back from that. Prince Harry and his military background are well known. He spent time in Afghanistan, and his service to his country should never be forgotten. But by the same token, let’s not pretend he was some sort of war hero, eh?). The Earl of Wessex recounted ‘If people want to pay more attention to what we’re doing then great, because actually, that’s got to be good for our organisations and the work that we are trying to carry out’ and acknowledging that his mother’s the job is ‘not one you can walk away from’, the Earl adds, ‘It just carries on relentlessly’. So yes, the support is important, that we’re there. (After a pause and with a hint of sadness, seemingly reflecting on one of the most difficult years the House of Windsor has ever had to endure, the Countess of Wessex added poignantly that ‘we are still a family no matter what happens, we always will be’).

When Prince Harry next hits Heathrow (he’s expected to return to the UK for his mother Princess Diana’s statue unveiling on what would have been her 60th birthday on 1^st July, but that’s in doubt as Harry’s wife Meghan Markle has just given birth on 4^th June to a daughter – is it actually their own biological child though as is suggested it may have even been an IVF pregnancy) SO why not collect him there by car, securely transport him, and immediately imprison him in the Tower on charges of treason and rebellion, and afterwards line up Meghan for beheading on charges of being a spying American divorcee intent on usurpation of power including destruction of the monarchy, and the wilful kidnap/removal from Great Britain of the legitimate son of the above, eh?

You see, from an early stage of its history, one of the functions of the Tower of London has been to act as a prison, though it was not designed as one. The earliest known prisoner was Ranulf Flambard in 1100 who, as Bishop of Durham, was found guilty of extortion. He had been responsible for various improvements to the design of the tower after the first architect Gundulf moved back to Rochester (but he escaped from the White Tower by climbing down a rope which had been smuggled into his cell in a wine casket).

Well, the Tower of London has regularly acted as a prison in this country from the 12th Century through the 20th Century [including prisoners of war, rebels, treasonists, protesters, princes, claimants to the throne, powerful lords, plotters, spies, and heretics, so in total some 93 souls have been incarcerated and indeed a number died or were murdered there]

Moreover, beheading executions have been habitually used in Britain but of some 189 recorded beheadings mostly were men and just 7 were women (as below) and those included 2 wives of Henry VIII

1.       Anne Boleyn – Queen of England and Henry’s Wife (1536) – executed by sword at the Tower of London by order of Henry VIII of England for High Treason

2.       Margaret Pole, 8th Countess of Salisbury (1541) – executed at Tower Green by order of Henry VIII of England for High Treason

3.       Catherine Howard – Queen of England and Henry’s Wife (1542) – executed at Tower Green by order of Henry VIII of England for High Treason

4.       Jane Boleyn, Viscountess Rochford – wife of executed George Boleyn, Viscount Rochford and sister-in-law of Anne Boleyn (1542) – executed at Tower Green by order of Henry VIII of England for High Treason

5.       Lady Jane Grey – Queen of England 10–19 July 1553 and Heir to the English and Irish Thrones 21 June – 10 July 1553 (1554) – executed at Tower Green by Mary I as Claimant to Throne

6.       Mary, Queen of Scots – Queen of Scots and Queen consort of France (1587) – Executed during the reign of Elizabeth I of England for Treason

7.       Lady Alice Lisle (1685) – executed at Winchester by Judge Jeffreys during the Bloody Assizes for harbouring Monmouth rebels
