Calling ESPECIALLY, all the Caribbean peeps...look at this: People: This popped up from the Caribbean feminist collective Red for Gender. It is from the Daily Mail so fucked up language and attitudes are a given. But its the fucking STORY that made me bring it here. Bear with me.


Widow of Lord Glenconner begs manservant who inherited West Indies estate to give back his fortune

The widow of Lord Glenconner, who has left his fortune to his West Indian manservant, has appealed for him to return part of the estate to the family.

Distressed Lady Anne Glenconner said she hoped that Kent Adonai, 48, ‘would do the right thing’.

Lady Anne, who was a close friend of Princess Margaret, said it was a ‘surprise’ to learn that her husband had left the multi-million pound estate on the Caribbean island of St Lucia to Mr Adonai.

Rewarded: Kent Adonai, with Lord Glenconner, inherited his multi-million pound estate

Rewarded: Kent Adonai, with Lord Glenconner, inherited his multi-million pound estate

At a memorial service yesterday for Lord Glenconner, 83, near Innerleithen in the Scottish Borders, Lady Anne said: ‘Kent was beloved by my husband but so were we all – I was married to him for 55 years.’

Mr Adonai had walked the baron’s pet elephant in the Caribbean, cooked for his jet-set friends and slept on the floor by his bed for 30 years.

Lord Glenconner changed his will seven months before his death from cancer to leave Mr Adonai everything that had been meant for his heir, his 17-year-old grandson Cody.

This included his beachside house between the Pitons in St Lucia, all its contents and a valley overlooking the Caribbean.

People, you need to see the 1985 picture of Lord Glenconner and his servants to get the full flavor of this fuckery. THERE IS NOT ENOUGH WTF IN THE WORLD FOR THIS SHIT. And, of course, questions arise as to how exactly that fortune was amassed in the first place! And therefore, I am sure you will join me in wishing Mr. Kent Adonai VERY VERY WELL, and in urging him to do the right thing, which is to send TWO middlefingers in Lady Glennconner's direction, tell them to go fuck themselves, and do with that fortune as he wishes. Last I checked, the Daily Mail comments were right with me.


Here's a longer and more informative article on the whole business (again, Daily Mail)

Before I looked at the picture, I was all 'Slept by his bed on the floor? Lady go wash yourself'.

Then I clicked the artle, rad about her 'personal property' and thought 'Lady, where the fuck have YOU BEEN that you weren't even THERE to have your personal propery? Who was wiping this old man's backside? Huh?'

Then I saw the picture. And went: "Oh HELL NO WHITE WOMAN. Go cry somewhere else! Bitch, please, that black man put up with more than you EVER would, could or did."

Keep all of the money... Sir Kent Adonai

Dude... you are so fucking right!!! Fuck those royal assholes. Kent
Adonai deserves whatever money he's received and any he profits
as a result thereof!!!!! " Do the right thing... my ass." Those pompous fucks
wouldn't give Kent a fucking dime if there wasn't a reversal of fortune.
they would say," you were his servant... you deserve nothing!!"
Dude... you contact me, and I'll let you in on some info regarding this
situation that will blow your mind!!!!! howyooremindmee@yahoo.com
