PRINCE Harry is in the UK and presumably desperate to make up with the Daily Mail, his truest friend. Here’s what he needs to do to win it back:
Do a livestream with Tommy Robinson
For no good reason except his multiple convictions, no politicians will touch Tommy even though Mail readers believe him an unfairly-maligned English patriot. Harry could get back to his roots by appearing in a livestream less awkward than his Oprah appearances and more racist than his brother has dared to be.
Do a respect-paying grave tour
The Mail approved of Harry visiting his nan’s grave, so capitalise on that. Looking sombre at the graves of Thatcher, Churchill and Amy Winehouse would get the Mail’s approval but the obvious crowd pleaser is the remains of Captain Tom. Especially if Harry leaves a stuffed Paddington Bear, our universal mark of respect for the fallen.
Make up with his family
Harry needs to swallow his pride, forget he was right and apologise to all the Royals he’s fallen out with. They seem shallow, dim and unused to listening, so ‘Sorry for making you attack me without provocation, bruv’ should fix it. Come Christmas, they’ll be splatting unsuspecting stags’ brains across moorland like a family again.
Divorce his wife
The Mail’s hatred of Meghan is bottomless. Harry knows what he did wrong – marry a woman he loved – and he knows what he has to do. Filing for divorce would be the greatest day in the paper’s history, beating even the Liz Truss budget. Nothing could bring them more joy except bringing back hanging and/or serfdom.
Attend an asylum protest
These spontaneous outbursts of anger by loving mums whose only concern is their little ones’ safety have faded a bit because there’s only so many ways to make 30 people look like the entire country. But Harry turning up in a blazer and brogues would breathe new life into them, and his ‘save are kids’ banner would be spelt correctly.
Get a new Kate-style wife
Once divorced Harry would need a new wife, and who better than his sister-in-law? But she’s taken so he’d need to find her minor aristocrat lookalike, perhaps a girl who is officially the 11th Viscount of Shropshire, but in reality is a dreadful posh girl who dabbled briefly in modelling. Kate will allow him to marry her before she sets to destroying her.
Clone Princess Diana
At the time she was worse than Meghan, but now all any Mail reader wants is their Diana back. Harry must have enough of her DNA to Jurassic Park it, and then she can re-enter the family like an EastEnders villain. Raises ethical questions, yes, but the Mail will be sorted for content until about 2105.
