Did The Royal Family Conspire To Kill Princess Diana?

I have respect for certain members of the Royal family, but consider it an outdated institution. I am definitely for a republic, bicameral with a strong civil service to advise and veto dangerous decisions made by politicians and the voters, accompanied by a tribune of the plebs style official who protected the poor

 

Don't want much then Harry
What are the chances though - there will be changes when William takes over, I feel both the boys are like Diana
and not keen on the pomp (or should that be 'pompous')

 

You're right, Patsy. I have probably read far too much Sci fi. I agree with you,, I think William and Harry may clean up the image of the Royal family.

 

@Harry Kemp
I truly think they will - although it seems Charles could have another 20 plus years yet
Seems the Royals live a 'long' life ................

 

Well with the care they get so they should! I do hope Charles isn't king long. Otherwise I'll pretend to be Danish!

 

Ha ha - 'King Long' - I hope not too

 

He's certainly not the most popular royal. Even when he married Diana I made fun of him with a badge (pin) having the motto ' The King and Di' and a doctored photo of him and her; Charles was completely bald.

 

LOL - me ribs hurt now
Mind you - I bet he looked nothing like Yul

 

Tried to find it, as a German student pestered me for the badge, so it's long gone and probably in an antique dealer's in Düsseldorf, along with other tat!

 

Aah shame - I can think of many things I've thrown out and regretted

 

Yes, bizarrely you seem to need something directly after you have got rid of it!

 

True

 

From what I understand, her boyfriend enjoyed going fast in vehicles. He kept urging the driver to go faster and faster (which his friends said he often did). At the time of the crash, the vehicle was going 100 mph. So when it came time to make that minor turn the vehicle spun out of control. No conspiracy just an accident that could have been avoided.

 

@Texas Beth - The only 'flaw' with that, is we will never know the speed of the car, no investigation allowed into that and many other things

 

It strikes me we can never be certain of anything, even if we were there. We all have our own beliefs, skills, etc, which influence how we - literally - see things.
I don't know if you have ever seen a famous historical event portrayed by different people over long periods of time. This gives the strange experience of looking at an old film and thinking to yourself things like: " Yes, a typical 1950s view of the Roman Empire"
