On the one hand,I’m happy that so many people in Nottingham will be helped by Meghan’s donation to @wearehimmah. OTOH, I’m so incredibly fvcking angry that the character assassination perpetrated by the UK media & sanctioned by the palace made the trustees question announcing it.
The charity accepted & spent the money, so clearly their issue wasn’t with Meghan’s values but with public perception, despite the work she & Harry have put into the Nottingham community supporting projects like Full Effect & the Community Recording Studio.
Meghan even made a solo visit to Nottingham Academy to mentor students & invited one to attend their wedding. She went on to be secret pen pals with another student recovering from a brain tumor. bbc.com/news/uk-englan…

All of this & yet a Nottingham charity worried that the community would discount what they had seen #HarryAndMeghan do with their own eyes & believe a 4 year smear campaign from anonymous palace sources. This is the power of an unchecked & unscrupulous UK media. I hope you burn.

“I’m resigning from my position on the board of the SoE. I didn’t do so in the immediate aftermath of Ian Murray’s statement saying the UK press wasn’t bigoted b/c I was assured by fellow board members that a robust rebuttal...would soon be forthcoming” pressgazette.co.uk/eleanor-mills-…
“Two weeks after the extraordinary board mtg in the wake of Murray’s departure that apology & clear statement about the Society’s current view in regards to whether the lack of diversity in our newsrooms amounts to structural racism in the UK media is still not forthcoming.”
“I have lost confidence in the SOE ever delivering such a statement. Unlike many board members I have no institutional ties keeping me from resigning on this matter of principle, so today that is what I am doing.”

“Not only was I not being protected,but they were willing to lie to protect other members of the family” she said. “They weren’t willing to tell the truth to protect me & my husband”

An investigation of the Firm’s defense or lack thereof. #BestRoyalReads buzzfeednews.com/article/elliev…
“Members of the BRF rarely issue personal statements, and the family’s media team rarely goes on the record with the press in response to a story or request for comment. (BP didn’t provide an on-the-record response for this article. A spox for the Sussexes said, “No comment.”)”
“It’s important to understand the outsize influence the Palace press office wields as it manages the UK media’s voracious hunger for royal family coverage. It can try to kill false or misleading stories before publication (journalists have said as much)”

Clarence House held a reception for royal reporters Sept 7 2018. Do we think Richard Palmer was the only one invited or just a case of selective amnesia from the rest of the Royal Rota? @cnn @NewDay @MaxFosterCNN @JohnBerman @AlisynCamerota
#HarryAndMeghan highlighted some of the “credible media outlets” they’ve collaborated w/ like @TIME @NatGeo @BritishVogue.They’re extending that access to grassroots media & funding orgs like @url_media & @PressPadUK. @NewDay @cnn & @MaxFosterCNN may find themselves off the list.
Are people upset b/c Meghan said their private exchange of vows was more meaningful to her than the public wedding? @newday @cnn is @MaxFosterCNN relying on SussexRoyal Instagram for his scoops? That’s where I saw #HarryAndMeghan formalize their vows.

Great news for @wearehimmah! They are a “a grass roots community-based initiative tackle poverty, mental wellbeing, racism and social exclusion.” Perfect fit for Meghan. Nottingham was the city #HarryAndMeghan visited first following their engagement.

Like so many charities, @wearehimmah has struggled to meet the increased need spurred by the pandemic as donations have decreased just when they’re needed most. Meghan’s donation to help stock the food bank couldn’t be more timely. #MeghanMarkle #DuchessOfSussex
Meghan previously made a similar donation to @migratefulUK. This was one of the things that most impressed me about the Together cookbook. Ongoing sales continue to generate profits to support her mission to empower communities like the #HubbCommunityKitchen & beyond.👏🏾
