MEGHAN and Harrys private appearance at a 5-star hotel in Miami shows exactly why their new independent status will be a massive headache for Buckingham Palace.

The couple may have earned up to $1million for speaking at the star-studded Miami dinner buzzing with bankers, billionaires and American superstars.

Harry and Meghan attended an exclusive event for 425 high-rollers

But although the British taxpayer forks out a fortune for their security, the whole event was shrouded in heavily-guarded secrecy.

The royal couple appear to have been flown to Florida from their 11 million Vancouver hideaway on a private jet owned by their hosts, investment bankers JP Morgan Chase.

Yet we know remarkably little about what they said or who they met at the wealth summit, or indeed about who is giving them advice.

Meghan and Harry have every right to earn a living and Harrys speech about his years of therapy was a very brave statement. Its a shame more people didnt hear it in full.

But then this was an exclusive event meant only for the ears of 425 high-rollers, not the likes of the British taxpayers who help fund Harry and Megs lifestyle.

And the royal couple would have had plenty in common with globe-trotting multi-millionaire Tony Blair on the panel.

Just like them he enjoys the luxury of security paid for by the British public.

Keir’s dangerous game

THE Governments new emergency anti-terror laws are vital.

But ministers must now close all the loopholes that endanger the public. One shocking case involves Britains youngest terror offender.

Will Keir Starmer back his lawyer chums or the public?

The youth, known only as X, is up for release within weeks, despite being caged for life aged just 14 after plotting to behead police officers and teachers.

But not only could X be freed after only five years behind bars, but his identity will be kept secret for the rest of his life.

An extraordinary anonymity order made by a judge means that, if the Parole Board gives the green light, he could soon be walking Britains streets among a totally unsuspecting public.

The polices job keeping track of such individuals is hard enough without such extra hurdles, and the public must not be put in more danger.

Home Secretary Pritti Patel must look closely at this case, while steering through measures to stop terror offenders being released early – only to go on bloody rampages.

Lawyers are already claiming the human rights of these offenders would be unfairly curbed.

Who will Labour leadership favourite Sir Keir Starmer back? His lawyer chums or the public?
