Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex 5 AM on Monday morning. Yesterday
his name was announced, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor. Source: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/royal-family/2019/05/09/royal-baby-archie-first-picture-everything-know-meghan-harrys/.
Because I was offline for a few days because of a computer breakdown, I've only
just found out about this; which shows how dependent I am for the internet for
my connection to the world. His mother said: "He has the sweetest
temperament; he's really calm." The new royal baby is seventh in line to
the throne and is heir apparent to the Duchy of Sussex. He will not automatically
be given a royal title because he is not a prince of the realm like William and
Kate's son. Little Archie is unique in many ways. His maternal relatives are
American, not British. He is also the first royal baby to be of mixed race. As
I say in the background links below, one of the purposes of bringing Meghan
into the family was to disarm the growing criticism the monarchy has endured
from leftwing republicans. They rile against the royals for being "all white
British!". As I explain in the background links below, the House of
Windsor is not in fact British and its members are not white people even if
they look like they are. The first photographs of Archie do indicate the
darkness of his skin and some negroid facial features which will no doubt
delight said republicans. Because of the way racial genetics works, Meghan's
baby was always destined to be either more white or more black than she is.
Along with leftist shouts of triumph have been the inevitable controversies.
The BBC Radio 5 Live presenter Danny Baker has been sacked for posting a Tweet
showing a photo of a man and a woman escorting a chimpanzee dressed in human
clothing. The caption reads: "Royal baby leaves hospital". Source: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-48212693. It's a
juvenile and insulting joke, and Baker must have known what the cost would be
for sharing it, especially in the climate of the modern BBC where you can be demonized
for far less. The irony is that Harry and Meghan's child might well be the
first baby born to the royals in many years who is completely human.

The Royal family don't give a monkey's about Harry Hewitt; in fact, it is certain that unsuspecting Harry was targeted by MI5 and the Royals and that Markle is an agent. It is no coincidence that the child is 7th in line to the throne, i.e. 1 removed from what is considered Royalty. BTW Ben, why were you not presenting at AV10?
Laurence, I do fear for that baby. The Royals love a sacrifice!... Ian has yet to book me as an AV speaker, although I was a backup speaker one year. I actually went to AV 10 yesterday and had a wonderful time. I met lots of people and sold a lot of books :-)
Did you meet Gemma O'Doherty, Ben? I have been following Gemma for several months now (indeed I met her in person the day she shut down Google! :)). Gemma is putting herself forward for election as well but has been blacklisted by the MSM (the traitors of RTÉ in particular). BTW, AV is missing out by not booking you more often, such is the level of your work and presenting style. (I look forward to the HPANWO TV report, all the same.)
Thanks, Laurence. I'd love to speak there and will do so if ever Ian asks. Sadly I never got the chance to meet Gemma. She was there today only. I really think she's wonderful. I also never got the chance to film, sorry. I was only there one day and was stuck with my stall.
Agreed Ben, Gemma is exactly as she appears on screen, i.e. a very courageous and genuine lady. Not to worry, here's to AV11 next year, DV.
Will look forward to it! :-)
