Duchess of Cambridge pregnant

...Has the monarch interfered in politics in recent history (or not so recent) - refusing to appoint the PM or anything like that, etc?

No. But she does advise the various PMs that have come and gone during her reign. Some might think that's a valuable service, as she's got an awful lot of experience with world leaders that young lads like Cameron will never have.

Can we not have an elected Monarchy? Where various families campaign every 4 years to get into the Palace.

I think as soon as Catherine has dropped she should be put on the game. That would bring in a few quid.

I went to see him a few weeks ago, his new show isn't that great. I am a massive fan and loved his first tour

Other countries have tried that. It's called a "presidency".

Where the sickness is so severe that it is all day and all night. The woman is unable to keep any food down, and ends up so dehydrated that it puts her own and the baby's life at risk.

HTH. BIDI.

Frankie Boyle really is charmless nurk sometimes. Shame really, as he's quite an intelligent and funny guy - just given himself over to bitterness and bile.

That is sick...

Given that sex is often used to instigate labour, why should it be sick?
