Former Home Office minister Norman Baker said strict rules governing royal endorsements have been broken and has written to the Cabinet Secretary Sir Mark Sedwill to express his concern. "Can I ask whether permission was sought and given for the use of the word 'royal' to sell milk? Assuming it was not, what steps do you and your colleagues intend to take to end this use immediately?"In a statement from Buckingham Palace last week, Prince Harry and Meghan are described as making clear"everything they do will continue to uphold the values of Her Majesty".:"The values we usually talk about are the Nolan principles of public life.
paulcgribben Who cares really.
He is not the son of the heir to the throne id he he does not have a title
eternal life is available thru Jesus , the king of kings invites all
Who cares?
But that is using their connection so they won't be independent.....defeats the whole idea
There would have been quite a noise had it been Harry here.
Isn’t jersey royal a potato ?.....
racistpiersmorgan
When they do it report it, until then, can we have real news. Assange, Andrew, where is Maxwell etc...
Boring
Name and shame GEORGE BOWDEN from BBC who can’t come up with real news. Try doing some actual research mate
What are you doing BBC? No need to speculate like this is what th public should steer Meghan and Harry towards. Where’s the real news?
Ooh, look at you speculating like the best tabloid. Give it a rest, ffs, and report *News*, like you know, how it says in the name 'BBC NEWS' - or maybe change it to reflect what you actually do?
Let’s talk about Andrew shall we .. And what really happened to Epstein.. looks like it’s all got swept under the carpet.
Ha ha. Yes. Who needs charity work.
Yes why not they can make tons of money with so many things 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
They will milk their royal links
Wow for a minute I thought it was the daily fail.
Dance monkey, dance!
I mean, maybe once his endorsement deal runs out, they could take over, but I'm not sure.
That Meghan could promote a no-win, no-fee legal service as she has a lot of experience of taking legal action...
Can't ship it up north without it going off
Better than makin a PIGS EAR of sellin bacon.
Give it a couple of years and Harry will be doing adverts for divorce solicitors.
It does not seem right ! Royals should not be doing this 🤦🏻♀️
Yes without a doubt - something high class like promoting Canadian Maple Syrup!
He has no titles
What’s wrong with increasing exports and working like normal?
Who cares?
Still no news from what is going on in France...? REALLY?!
ThisIsNotNews BBC turning into Daily Mail gossip.
As long as Harry isnt setting up drug trafficking and human trafficking lanes through Canada 🇨🇦 qanon WWG1WGA
Interesting choice of advertising, considering milk is not a big part of the Chinese diet.
I hear the queen is going to do Air B&B at Sandringham palace...😂👑🏰
Does it matter - leave them alone!!!!
Sounds like shit stiring to me. .
This headline belongs on the onion
We can't all depend on a compulsory licence fee to get by on, sadly
Here's hopin'! Bring back Capstan Full-Strength. ”I recommend this brand.'
You are obsessed BBC.
😂😂😂😂WTF?
Guess they will be doing McDonalds and Walmart. About their level.
Did someone in the Royal family do something let's see if we can link Harry to it in someway, I've know idea why they want to leave the country for 6 months of the year...
I think it is time for the rules to be tightened, these people are not truly 'royal', no wonder Prince Charles wants to cull them.
oh please.
Oh come on BBC the world is dying and there is all sorts going on globally you could report on like Al Jazeera does. Stop perpetuating hounding the Sussex’s with this nonsensical tabloid rubbish. Leave them all alone and leave the rubbish to Murdock!
Disappointed future.
I really don't care. Too much Royal nonsense masquerading as news to distract us from what is really happening in the world - 'bread and circuses'
Damned if they do live off royal funds and damned if they don’t. Schrödinger's Royal is everything and nothing all at the same time. But hey as long as you get your pound of flesh right?
Talk about milking it
Very shabby!
That's milking the brand to maximise the return 🤣🤣🤣
The media and fickle British public would probably shame them if they decided they were gonna get jobs in home bargains
What! Delivering milk? Have a heart …
No
Is this a dumb article?
So you rather he live off the state funds... he’s just trying to live. Whilst you’re on the topic what do you think about Piers Morgan’s report on this same ad this on GMB racist much? How about you report on that!
Wow
They’re still going to be hounded by the media because they’re royals, why can’t they make some money and be self supporting because they’re royals?
At least earning his way. What is the big deal? Everyone from Katie Price to Beyonce is selling us something, from fake boobs to overpriced branded wear. Whats is the big deal?
I don’t care what the Sussex’s do , but don’t complain about the press when you sell yourself to the highest commercial bidder or smile at a photograph in the bushes then complain of intrusion 😏
Much like the press is milking this whole story.
No milk today , My love gonna away.!
ah...so the fame competition between him and harry begins? lol
I had to reread the headline.. For a moment, I was asking myself.. Did Freddie Mercury have grandkids? 😂
Guernsey milk is better.
Is the expensive TV license used to write articles like this?
If we take away their title fair enough.
WOW. I just lost so much respect for him. Sad.
Thomas Markel is right. It Cheapens Royal brand. Harry & Meghan beware. What's Charles going to Davos for? Telegraph DailyMailUK TheSun SkyNewsPolitics ITVNewsPolitics BBCPolitics
Prince Andrew could advertise antiperspirant.
🤣🤣🤣 it’s laughable that you think they would just do milk commercials. By the way headlines like this prove the Sussexes point. You didn’t need to include them in this but you did. They truly are the most popular royals. You hate to see it!
Princess Anne made sure her kids had no titles. I suspect everyone in U.K. could claim Royal heritage if they really wanted to.
Maybe so, and nothing wrong in them doing it.
Not real thrilled to see that. It cheapens the tradition, in my opinion.
Oh dear
I am more worried about why the BBC isn’t reporting the yellow vest protest in France,Macrons thugs are beating everyone up including nurses and firemen,as it will happen here soon,good luck to Harry but it’s low level news.
TheFabledAesop Any news? On the Russia Report?
They'd sell there souls by what they've done, selfless arrogant obnoxious pair of individuals 💩
RoyalFamily totally useless in everything they try their hand at by themselves
Seriously have you ever wonder why Meghan and Harry have left the uk ?
If it's making him money, good on him. Now leave this beautiful couple (Harry & Megan) alone. I respect a man/woman who legitimately generate their own revenues. I wish them great success earning their money privately, to shut up the biased British press.
Aye't milking it as always. I have udder contempt for this sort of thing.
Surely she'd go back to acting?
Unlikely that someone with Canadian citizenship would BBCWorld factcheckfail But maybe they won't go that route.
Shame on you for connecting Harry and Megan to this advert.
Tawdry
They need decent milk in China
Sure, How could anyone resist the money CCP sucked from 1 billion slave labors Clinton? Biden? Obama? Merkel? Macron?
Who cares?
Good for them the money spend on them can go back to the public or nhs and schools. Why is it so hard for people to let them be. If these people wanted Harry and Megan here then press and pier the cockroach Morgan would let them be.
This would be a more useful story-
Do they even know who he is?
Please, no more thinkpieces and minutiae about the Royal Family.
Who? Never heard of this hanger on.
Please can you go back to trolling us with Stormzy stories BBC? Even that insufferable bawbag was preferable to this royal guff.
Go away
I guess Harry and Meghan didn't want to be pimped by the Royal Family any more. Good on them!
Bread and Circuses How about doing your job BBC? How about a proper expose into the allegations against Prince Andrew. Something a bit less fawning than Nicholas Witchell reading out Palace press statements as though they are not to be questioned.
Is he promoting it for the British Dairy industry? or is it a brand/company that is braking into the country. That makes a difference.
You’re the BBC.....now drop it before you cheapen your brand any further
Leave them alone
Peter Phillips is not and never has been Royal or paid from the public purse. He has no title and has worked for a living.
They should all go out and get jobs. Stop posting articles designed to look down on people wanting to earn money. Better than being tax dodgers.
Suspect the Chinese wouldn't have a scooby who he is without being told, I wouldn't have recognised him 😄
WTF BBC? 🤦🏽♀️ stop trying to shame people for having a job!
No.
The British Press Won't be happy until this couple lie dead in the wreck of an Automobile, just like his mother
no one cares, could not care less, do what there like, no longer getting tax free money from the public, let them earn the money any way they want. sky you really are obsessed with them.
The British media are trying to inoculate themselves from accusations of racism before they go in hard on Meghan and Harry when they start taking advantage of commercial opportunities.
He could write a book, do speaking engagements, etc., I don't see him doing milk commercials just yet.
Please get to the bottom of Prince Andrew’s current situation and what is future would look like.
but if no one had told you it was the Queen's Grandson not many people would have known?
Who cares?! We all need to let HarryandMeghan get on with their lives.
Walmart with a crown
He's earning a living. Leave it.
Who cares!! Peter is not a titled Royal, does not preach to the plebs and is promoting a British product! Good on him!
Yes
🙄
I can see them doing the Aldi Christmas advert
Just like any other family, people need to make money and provide. People complain they don’t want to fund H&M, but next will be critical of what work they will choose to do. As long as it’s not immoral and they’re not hurting anyone, then if they work, then great!
It's he a pedo too
if its good for a Royals its good for everyone. The crown reflected the demise of the royals through the queen mother she said it so well. Its true the royals are eroded in one way or the other. Absolute power is even slipping from politics so it would no doubt slip from royals.
Seriously BBC...If this is all what you have to comment on in these interesting times we are living in 🙄
It's known as 'earning a living'. Nothing wrong with that.
And you wonder why they have left the uk
No one cares... It's time to find a new story to annoy everyone about.
