OPINION

By Yasmin Alibhai-Brown

Meghan and Harry’s Jubilee visit will confirm they were right to leave the UK

The undeniable racism that has been and still is directed at her, as well as the intrusiveness, never ends

Yasmin Alibhai-Brown: ‘What the couple told Oprah Winfrey in that interview was absolutely true, which must be why patriotic Britons found it so intolerable’ (Photo: AP)

Dan Wootton, a GB News anchor and Daily Mail columnist tweeted this week: “I find it unimaginable that Meghan Markle would travel the length of the US for a tacky photo opportunity at the sight [sic] of the Uvalde school shooting but refuse to see her stroke-struck dad…”

Wootton, a wannabe Piers Morgan without the charm, tirelessly excoriates the mixed-race, beautiful, intelligent, world famous woman whom he has, I assume, never met. This week he invited her half-brother, a nonentity, on to his show to denounce his sister. Sadly their father is too ill to appear and do his bit to drag down his daughter.

Other sections of our media have also cursed Meghan for visiting the bereaved Uvalde families – the same lot who extolled the Duchess of Cambridge when she went to the vigil for Sarah Everard last March. That, apparently, was not a photo op, but proof that the future Queen cared deeply about the murdered woman and about female safety.

Over the next few days, when Meghan, Prince Harry and their children are here for the Platinum Jubilee, tabloid haters will go into a frenzy. Ignominies and infamies will be relentlessly piled on the couple. That is to be expected. Harry and Meghan have long been vilified far more and far more often than the real bad boy, Prince Andrew, who, it is rumoured, will be paraded by his mum who is keen on getting him re-established as a proper prince.

And the self-exiled family will once again understand that leaving was the right, indeed only, way to live a sane and happy life. The undeniable racism that has been and still is directed at her, as well as the intrusiveness, never ends.

Royalists and right-wing hacks say that she brought all this on herself. That the nation and the media rejoiced when the couple wedded in the bright sunshine. That there isn’t a whiff of racism in the way Meghan and Harry were and are treated by the “free press” and the Windsors, “who have done everything they could and more to welcome her in with open arms”.

Those are the words of a tabloid diarist I was on a programme with last year. A whiff? It’s a stench now, all around us, a stench no perfume or freshener can cover. Yes, newspapers and TV channels gave us countless pics and much tittle-tattle about the wedding, mostly because royal weddings cause a spike in sales and viewing figures.

What the couple told Oprah Winfrey in that interview was absolutely true, which must be why patriotic Britons found it so intolerable. Prince Harry candidly described the UK tabloid media as “bigoted” and accused it of creating a “toxic environment”.

He also, rightly, observed that racist and biased information about his wife “filters out to the rest of society”. And, furthermore, his birth family did not give them any support.

Two things to clarify here: I don’t think all tabloid journalists and editors are biased and cruel. I write for some of them. Secondly, some of the most bitter and prejudiced articles I have read on this couple were published in illustrious broadsheets.

In Revealing Britain’s Systemic Racism, a recently published book, sociologists Kimberley Ducey and Joe Feagin interrogate the myths about racial progressiveness in Britain.

Meghan Markle is a key case study, first presented as proof that the nation and the royals had become wonderfully inclusive and then, swiftly, turned into an ungrateful wretch and wicked witch. The authors observe that “the political is always personal for women of colour in the limelight” and argue that hers is a story of elite racism.

I think it is also a terrifying story of populism, of Britons being goaded into venting fury against a “coloured” royal, an interloper.

Just as unfair are the constant intrusions into Meghan’s life. What gives journalists and commentators the right to demand that she should placate her father, who did not raise her and who has insulted and stalked his child for money ever since her engagement?

In a recent interview, the broadcaster Kirsty Young said she had been long estranged from her birth father. I don’t see moralistic hacks going after her. Or the Scottish film and TV star Alan Cummings, who described his father as “tyrannical” and cut him out of his life. Why do Meghan’s father, half-sister and half-brother keep on blame-shaming her?

Perhaps, it’s her fame they want to share, perhaps her fortune, too. Perhaps they are envious. They may feel she owes them, but what? And why? Who knows? Not our business.

Meghan’s black mum, Doria Ragland, educated and self-contained, never publicly intervenes in her daughter’s life. But Markle, his son and daughter from his first marriage never stop. These career whingers get airtime, encouragement and credence. Meghan gets no respect and is trashed.

Even now, in so called post-racial Britain, white is right and black always suspect and shady.

A-T-3 133 Butthole Surfers - Bar-B-Q Brecht

Before Dinosaur Jr. Lou Barlow and J. Mascis had been in the hardcore band Deep Wound, Lou on guitar and J. on Drums. Deep Wound's self-titled EP comes out in 1983 but it wasn't until 2006 and the Almost Complete compilation that you could easily get your hands on this material in the UK. I love Dinosaur Jr. but I've never picked up the Deep Wound records, check out the 1983 EP here https://youtu.be/5rPO3hJw814

Something easier to find was...

Butthole Surfers debut EP put the ass back into Texas. Dead Kennedy's Jello Biafra was instrumental in the early career of Butthole Surfers (Hüsker Dü also, who I wrote about yesterday) and getting them onto record. Primarily a live band the Buttholes put on gigs that are written about as performance art, with projected films and onstage antics equal to the music, an inverse of stadium rock shows by bands they idolise. Haynes and Leary shy away from talking about the band in interviews, there are a lot of made up stories, but according to a reliable source (wikipedia) the debut EP began as a promise from Biafra (who ran Alternative Tentacles for DK's,) if the Buttholes could get someone to loan them studio time Alternative Tentacles would reimburse the studio when the EP was done. The Buttholes got Bob O'Neill, a studio owner in San Antonio, Texas to agree to provide the band with the time they needed to make the EP, the studio's engineer Joe Pugliese helping with production

"Sometimes it’s hard for me to even think of our music as music . . . It has been more of a platform to express ourselves, even though we don’t know what we are trying to express. I was pretty mad at the world for a while." - Paul Leary, guitar and occasional lead vocals

The result is chaotic, confrontational and adolescent (the record labels says it plays at 69 RPM). Bar-B-Q Pope begins like a Blue Öyster Cult record then has it's mood ruined by Leary squawking like a rooster, the effect is a kind of dissonance Brecht might even have approved of. The song is political, there's a saying "It’s the bigots prerogative to not use language seriously" here that is being flipped on its head to intentionally upset conservatives. Here 'the pope' is the catholic church, which stands in for all organised religion. In 1981 label mates Dead Kennedy's released In God We Trust, Inc which presents conservative christian political organisations, including think tanks, astroturf organisations, and lobby groups as criminal enterprises, a racket... today we might call it a grift. Check out Moral Majority on the In God We Trust, Inc EP, the difference between Moral Majority and Bar-B-Q Pope is Jello Biafra is holding up a black mirror and trying to use reason and argument where the Buttholes don't bother. The Butthole Surfers debut EP is sometimes called Brown Reason to Live. If this is the intended title or not is ambiguous and a whole book has been written about what 'brown' might mean (Merdre! as Ubu Roi would say) - Ween flew with the whole 'brown' thing, didn't they? - it's a tactic the tories are employing right now as they stir up hate against desperate people fleeing harm to find refuge in the UK. Facts, truth, reason get in the way of the tories objective. Braverman and Robert Jenrick have as much respect for meaning as they do the law when it gets in the way

Something that punk and hip hop share is cartoon violence intended to provoke pearl clutching conservative christians and liberals who are disgusted by cartoon violence more than they are people in rich countries living in poverty. It's argued just by being called Butthole Surfers the band will never sell out (I was saddened when Crazy Penis changed their name to Crazy P) but this underestimates the porousness of capitalism. I like this quote 'Haynes was asked whether, if given the chance to do it all over again, he would rewind the clock and make his career trajectory somewhat smoother by giving the band a more palatable moniker. "Yes," he replied, "I would name the band: I’m Going to Shit in Your Mother’s Vagina."'

Does this shake folk out of their stupor, probably not. Does it radicalise the youth, not enough

Butthole Surfers debut EP reached 21 on the UK indie singles chart. I found it around 1990/91, Piouhgd comes out on Rough Trade in 1991
