I know this isn’t the ideal place to rant, but can I just say how disgusted I am at the French publishing pictures of Kate Windsor topless.
The press seem hell bent on having a go at the younger generation of the Royal family, first picking on Zara Philips/Tindle trying to rock her marriage with aligations her husband had been unfaithful. Then Harry enjoying himself with friends and hurting no one, now Kate. Where will it end?
This young generation are doing a fantastic job of raising the profile of the Royal Family. They are more ‘in tune’ with the people of today than their respective parents etc. so let them get on with it, but still have a ‘life’ of their own. Do we really need all this ‘muck racking’?
Sorry…rant over.

Its good to rant Waddy and I agree with you, hope they do sue and win, as long as the money then is donated to a worthy cause, I personally don`t very often read the paper but of course its all over the news as well so one can`t get away from it today....

I must say I felt it was a pretty rotten when the couple could not have private time on holiday on a secluded estate. Same with all the 'is she pregnant speculation'? for goodness sake leave them alone. They are a popular young couple and have done a lot to save the future monarchy at least in GB.

we don't have a daily paper,I dislike the media trash and the treating of our Royal. Family as a soap opera....Tabloid journalists should be sent to the Tower!

The press, foreign or not, did dreadful damage to her mother-in-law: let's hope Kate is made of sterner stuff. Not nice.

Totally agree Waddy these young Royals are doing a grand job of modernising the Royal profile just hope the gutter press are brought to their knees ........Leave them alone when they are on a private holiday ...........

The editor of that French paper said that there was nothing to be upset about - she was only topless, as you would see on any other beach anywhere!!
Radio 4 said that the mags that print that kind of story make so much extra cash from sales that it more than pays their fines when they are sued. So yes, hope they get taken to the cleaners to the point where sales don't cover the fine.

My sentiments exactly,Waddy..I hate all the rubbish Tabloids,and their attitude of 'who can we target next' ?
I hope too,that they sue them for every penny ,and the French newspaper goes down the same road as the News of the World did..I think most of the world will be thinking the same..and it's time they took notice of what readers want..only way is to stop buying their papers..

I am not a fan of the Royals my self, they might be showing the youngsters they too like them selves we no longer live in an old fashioned victorian era, which has through centries Caused woman to be beaten to death by their partners because of our narrow mindness, which would of been better for them to put that over rather than what is being done now. They are employed by us to represent us and act accordingly, and know from experience know what the tabloids are like The sunbathing according to the lady who published the pictures stated it was an exposed area, so I ask myself why then did they chose an exposed area. I also ask my self like Harry spending the vast amounts of money in another country , when they could be spending it here and having the same, when it could help this country thats in a recession. When we are being brain washed to have our hols here. Our hospitals going down the pan only yesterday our hospital said they no longer can cope, and its one of the uk top hospitals, also ,I feel its insulting to those hard working low paid parents who cant afford to feed their children, heating, loseing their homes, being made homeless, like my daughter and hubby with four kids my self also, when the new law comes in. People then wonder, why there is so much neglect in hospitals cruelty, they learn it from their leaders. etc, , remember these children are our future not theirs, the children of today will be your,nurse, doctor, your bank manager, carer in old age, etc they can afford private and the best , I use to admire the queen until I watched the history channel in Harold Wilson era a recession her asking for more money, then recently repeating it only this time to heat Buckingham palace, where by she was asked which bennifit would she like to take it from, she choose, the oap heating and one parent bennifit, may be one day this may affect you or your family, I ve seen many people going from very rich to being homeless even millionaires.. You dont need not to buy a paper to not encourage the media your encouraging them by talking now on here about it now, I just hope the money they win goes to a good cause and in future recessions the queen waits for better times to request extra. On a lighter note yes Kate should get some thing and I bet all the page three girls are envious of Kate getting front page. Whats that to the tower and off with my head !

We are lucky enough to live in a country with free speech and all opinions should be considered with the same degree of weight and politeness, and long may it continue.......

Thank you Pamg :+)))) I just believe in equilness for all, not one law for one and a law for another, if you and me worked for goverment and slipped up we would pay dearly seems in Kates case security are nt doing their job enough. Yes like my ode Britishness that was, a verse from it, free speach standing on a box, yes lets hope we have the same in a few years time. As for our privacey Snoopdog, the press would nt be interested in us, lol unless a tradgerdy, or big money was fiddled , we dont get protection from being harrased by the press like the likes.
