Harry and Meghan were meant to embody post-racial Britain. So much for that | Amna Saleem
Everything that could have predicted the pair’s joint decision to step back as senior royals can be directly traced back through all the sensationalist and derogatory headlines written about Markle. She couldn’t even enjoy avocados without being framed as a drought- and murder-fuelling traitor, set on bringing down the monarchy.
It seems we are not as advanced as we thought. These youngsters have been hounded from day one by a gutter right wing press catering to the many racists in the country. I wont shed tears on their behalf , they have choices. But as a society this comes as a wake up call.
Not such a shock when our right-wing idiot PM describes black people as picaninnies with watermelon smiles. I thought we might be better than that but it seems we are not.
