Back in July, the petition was opened for signatures, and because it exceeded the minimum number of names needed, councilors will meet on Thursday to discuss the situation.

The petition, which has garnered almost 4000 signatures, states, ‘We the undersigned petition Brighton & Hove Council to reject the usage of the titles “Duke of Sussex” and “Duchess of Sussex” by the individuals Henry (“Harry“) Windsor and Rachel Meghan Markle as morally wrong and disrespectful to the county of East Sussex.

‘As residents of Brighton and Hove we call on Brighton and Hove Council to not refer to these individuals by such titles which we believe to be entirely non democratic and symbolic of the oppression of the general public by the wealthy elite.’

Furthermore,‘The petition aims to establish a precedent that Brighton and Hove Council will no longer afford official hospitality to those with Royal or aristocratic titles nor make usage of those titles in official documents as these titles are arbitrarily and unfairly acquired.

The Queen gave Harry and Meghan their titles following their May 19, 2018 royal wedding at Windsor.

Do you think Harry and Meghan should forfeit their Sussex titles?
