    If she didn't want the job should could've abdicated long ago. She does have that choice even though the job was thrust upon her.

    I don't think the royal wealth is anything like it used to be, I noticed she couldn't even afford to tax the Bentley used in the procession today.

    The richer people here might be even MORE richer, but you yourself are immensly rich.

    So instead of whingeing, get out there and build some wells, provide some shelter and some food, spend all your money until you yourself have to grub for food, just like they do


    otherwise shut the fck up.

    I think thats what he was trying to say



    I don't know he was, but I certainly was. Well put.

    Nah, he's too busy selling himself to earn a few pittance to give to the starving masses.

    It must be comforting to realise though, that the incoherence and hypocrisy he projects onto the monarchy and monarchists, is embedded deep within his own being.

    Why the hell should she?

    Because you say so?

    Dream on.

    But I guess you're happier finding other people to blame. After all what's the point of helping 100 people when someone else could help 1000.

    Better just to admit you don't give a damn and just don't like the Queen, rather than pretending it's for idealistic reasons.
    Nope, a person should provide for his own first. Hoarding Jewels and huge mansions while others starve is morally repugnant. Then to spend another billion to celebrate an non event while people are laid off because we bailed out rich bankers, it stinks and anyone who turns a blind eye is just as bad.

    60 years is enough. Time for these guys to wrap up this whole "royal" thing up and bin it. Next time they want a party, head to rascals at £8 a pop and keep it to themselves.
