sure, 0k, omid scobie, it is good to talk| ok, omid scobie, it is good to talk to you. thank you.view. our home editor mark easton looks at how damaging the couple's revelations are to the royal family. exactly one year ago today, the queen attended the commonwealth day service at westminster abbey, harry and meghan�*s last royal engagement. "it's always inspiring to be reminded of the diversity of the people and countries that make up our worldwide family," the queen said, speaking as head of the commonwealth that day. "such a blend of traditions serves to make us stronger individually and collectively." but as the royals gathered in the abbey, there were hints of tensions and troubles to come. over the course of 70 years, the queen has guided the monarchy from empire to black lives matter. in the 21st century, she represents a uniting figurehead for people of all cultures. accusations of racism at the heart of the royal family could represent an existential threat for this ancient institution. now, if you look at social media, you're seeing very, very young people, young influen
