Prince Harry “Hated Woke Nonsense” and “Made Jokes We Are No Longer Allowed to Make” before Meeting Meghan, Says Eton Classmate

by Will Jones
1 March 2023 12:44 PM

Prince Harry reportedly hated “woke nonsense” before meeting Meghan Markle, a new book has claimed. The Mail has more.

The Duke of Sussex, 38, is said to have not been a fan of “all that politically correct stuff” before he first met then-Suits actress Meghan, 41, and enjoyed sharing jokes that “we are no longer allowed to make”.

The claims from one of Prince Harry’s “Eton contemporaries” are made in a new biography, Gilded Youth by Tom Quinn, Newsweek reports.

Quinn’s book reportedly quotes the classmate of Harry’s, who is not named, as saying: “He was funny, a bit cynical and great company because like the rest of us he made jokes that we are no longer allowed to make.”

The claims come after the Duke of Sussex has been accused of being “woke” as he has championed new causes in recent years.

The former Eton pupil is reported to have accused Harry of turning into a “Guardian-reading tree hugger” after meeting the Duchess of Sussex, and suggests the Duchess herself was the person behind his transformation.

He said: “He rarely, if ever, spoke about global warming. He was a sort of Tim-Nice-but-Dim character who liked getting pissed with his army and Eton friends, did a bit of shooting and fishing and was otherwise undistinguished.”

Since stepping down as a senior member of the royal family Harry has spoken out about several causes and issues on which he previously rarely commented.

His more recent forays into tackling these issues have led to some people branding the Duke as ‘woke’. 

Last year, royal expert Angela Levin claimed Harry and Meghan were “trying to create an alternative woke royal family”.

She told Femail: “I’ve thought for a long time that Harry and Meghan are trying to create an alternative woke royal family, the grandeur and the pomp and circumstance that surrounds them.”

In his £100 million Netflix documentary Harry & Meghan, the Duke discussed how he has tackled his own unconscious bias in recent years and has since encouraged the royal family to do the same. 

In an interview to promote his bombshell memoir Spare in January, Harry told former NFL player Michael Strahan the royal family needed to educate themselves on unconscious bias if the monarchy was to modernise and survive.

Harry said he wanted the royals to survive but that understanding race better would be “hugely beneficial” for them.

Worth reading in full.

Many say he’s a psychopath. I think he’s just a bit thick.

His own blog shows this very clearly. Especially this little article, from 2016:

https://www.gatesnotes.com/development/smells-of-success

Read that and tell me he’s intelligent.

And the fact he hasn’t removed it. No wonder India has banned the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation from operating in India.

Sorry Joe I started reading it and then realised I couldn’t be arsed. I did have a brief flick through his book in Waterstones it was incredibly simplistic and the illustrations were infantile. Not really the type you would want influencing “world health”. The only thing he is interested in is power and wealth and the covid scam (he helped create) has given him the perfect opportunity to increase both. He doesn’t give two flying f**ks about anybodies health.

Oh I couldn’t agree more, Jabba. Just disputing the psychopath assertion.

I owe my career to Microsoft, so I used to respect him, and used to read his blog.

Then, in 2016, reading that article, I woke up.

And then when in February 2020, he resigned completely from Microsoft to “focus on humanitarian efforts”, I was certain about his idiocy and myopia.

I think he got interested in helping ‘those poor Africans’ about 20 years ago, when he realised he had more money than sense. I think this started out as being a ‘give something back’ type interest, but he’s just been overtaken by it. Its well beyond his scope and expertise, and he’s just a dangerous meddler, as you often find in people who are geniuses* in their own field, they seem to imagine that it is magically applicable to every other challenge on the planet.

*I am a survivor of Windows Vista. So ‘genius’ comes with some caveats…

Agreed, possibly not a psychopath but certainly paranoid, demonstrating a textbook example of the Messiah Complex.
And congratulations to India for their common sense. Possibly the result of having hosted too many dodgy fakirs in their time?

“The directing and coordinating authority for health within the United Nations system”.

Yes. Which means their recommendations will tend towards creating an increased role for the UN, the same as with the environment and the climate scare.

As for Billy boy, people like him are a poison in the body of science and health. He is a known eugenicist and using his clout to continue the failed policies of the 1930s by other means and on record as wanting to reduce the world population, and also has a serious conflict of interest with big pharma.

People like the Orthomolecular Medicine News Service should be given more of a say on public health but won’t be, and not for scientific reasons

orthomolecular.org/resources/omns/v16n04.shtml

No, vitamin C and vitamin D won’t turn a nice profit for Billy boy and, shock horror, might prevent governments giving experimental medication emergency authorisation (and liability exemption for big pharma). Hence those rigged vitamin D trials (and the nonsense about ivermectin – except in Uttar Pradesh), and maybe the death of Tanzania’s president and his on-message replacement.

And by the way, what is Paypal doing defunding TDS (See GB News, “Mark Steyn” (hosted by Mark Dolan) show tonight) ? Maybe these twerps should tell us what financial interests they have in the matter?
Be very clear, Paypal can for now be considered enemies of free speech, and should be avoided where possible.
Maybe we should have a story on what some of these tech companies are up to?
NB Paypal have basically said no comment. Let’s hear what these muppets are really up to. Toby has rightly said he will have no more to do with them, and I suggest others follow suit.

I ditched PayPal when they did the same thing to the FLCCC several months ago. This latest thing comes as no surprise and I now wouldn’t touch them with a bargepole.

Very difficult to contact them in order to give them the benefit of your opinion, though.

Despite good intentions, it is now a battering ram in the battle to move the planet towards all manner of initiatives which have less to do with health and more to do with politics. 

I’m not sure why the author assumes that the “global health” racket he describes is based on good intentions.

I have yet to encounter a racket that wasn’t intended primarily to benefit the racketeers.

I knew Bill Gates was a danger to humanity the moment I saw him in early 2020 do the rounds on network television advocating lockdowns.

It’s good to see some momentum gathering against him. He needs to be stopped.

coercive control is characterised by a pretence of ‘helping’ the victim, while simultaneously causing injury to the victim.

I trust Bill Gates rather less than the Chinese Communist Party.
After all, the latter has people who may be evil but are intelligent.

Interesting bit of Gates gossip in this vid – back in 2017 Trump was prompted to investigate vaccine damage. gates advised him ‘that would be a dead end’ *of course*

What does evil look like? Bill Gates. He locked up the world to enrich himself and most likely raped young girls on Epstein’s island.

It’s utterly frightening that this narcissistic psychotic can wield such power because of the amount of money he has. This is the same man who told us the scamdemic wouldn’t be over until we had vaccinated the world!….

Well Africa seems to have done very well without the ‘magic potion’, and yet they are still insisting on making them take it….money allows coercion of the worst kind..

I have tried but can see nothing but illegitimate power, profit and evil emanating from this man and everything he touches…

“the area of study, research and practice that places a priority on improving health and achieving equity in health for all people worldwide”

I find the work equity when used in relation to healthcare chilling. Having worked in a Cinderella service within the NHS since 1985 I know all too well about the pressure to provide an ‘equitable’ service. Way back in 1990 the demand for community SLT was so high that waiting times were in the order of 6-8 months as the service was grossly underfunded (caseloads carried by each SLT for a full-time post was between 100 – 150). The boss’ solution to this was to have her clinician’s work their sessions from one or two clinics so that they weren’t spending their time travelling when they should have been eating or could have been carrying out clinical work. She identified clinics with an appropriate room (not a cupboard as had been offered – I kid you not), with good bus links & all referrals were offered a choice of clinic. Some refused to travel to the nearest clinic as it was too far away. Their choice. Others complained that they couldn’t be seen locally whilst refusing to travel & the majority opted for the clinic location offered.
The boss put her foot down & gave the management a headache by stating that they had three options: continue with the status quo & provide the best quality service even if it wasn’t the most equitable; provide an equitable but poor quality service whilst running her clinical staff into the ground or they could expand the service to ensure a quality equitable service. She however refused to run with the second option.
Guess what? We had 4 new WTE posts created within 3 months!!!

Equity in healthcare in my experience usually correlates with crap healthcare provision. But hey! Its equitable.
