Prince William reveals he is secret helpline volunteer

The second in line to the throne has been secretly answering text messages from people needing help.

At least he’s doing something

 

[Danllan]

At least he’s doing something

Yep, virtue flagging.

 

[betweenthelines]

At least he’s doing something

Not like he's got anything else-like a proper job-to do.

 

[Bald Rick]

Yep, virtue flagging.

Yeah but he would be condemned if he did and condemned if he didn’t

At least he purports to support Aston Villa rather than being a glory seeker

And his wife’s a doll

In the first place good works are better not self-publicised...

In the second place that merely makes him a wannabee-Brummie, and so even more of a git...

In the third place, so is this:

I do admire prince William he will tackle the big issues like mental health he is a good man.

I’m no royalist but I admire the Queen and at least the core team of Brian, Willy, and big Annie are behind us.
Bin off the eunuch and Yankee Doodle; the paedo; useless Eddie and the rest then all is good

I thought you were meant to keep such things confidential?

Anyway, seems a bit daft, him taking phone calls with 2 or 3 Security personnel in the background. I suppose all the other volunteers had to be security screened as well?

Still, at least he can show some empathy:

"Like, yeah, I know how you feel, stuck in your flat all day. My Gran's been confined to her Castle with just the basic 9 or ten servants for weeks. She's only just been allowed out to ride her favourite horse round the Estate!"

"What, you haven't got a horse? And you don't fancy riding one around Peckham Rye? You poor fellow"

Its got a turbo on it.

He does seem more genuine than that knob Cameron, who said he supported West Ham but " I meant Villa".

Ever since we made William and Harry walk behind their mum's coffin so that we could gawp at them, and then subjected them to years of taunts about who Harry's dad may have been, I have always cut them a bit of slack.

Yep, virtue flagging.

I know you are a republican but the reality is he will hold a position of power in the not too distant future. The more he reacts with everyday people on a one to one basis the more use he will be.

 

[7610 super q]

If he only spent 10 minutes on that tractor topping grass, that's still 10 minutes more work accomplished than 90% of the population of this country.

I think the mere thought of Trump like character has kicked any prospect of Republicanism into the long grass for at least a generation.

Yeah... our heads of state, of whom we will be 'subjects' are already lined up until, very probably, at least the start of the 22nd Century. None on merit, none by popular choice, all by pure chance and due to who their predecessor shagged... and you're defending this system?

I like the security of knowing long term, what loon maybe ruling symbolically over me. Far safer than a random loon turning up out of the blue and fu*king your life up.

If you have a democratic choice it isn't 'random' and said choice can be removed.
