there are far more republicans than 50 years ago and far more vocal about it, so it's moving in the right directionHow’s the campaign to end the monarchy going?

Sorry to hear of your loss Boromart, I lost my biological mother as a child so I’ve been on the end of something similar.Have you ever had to make that decision about what responsibility you want to burden your young children with, as they bury their mother? I have, those kids shouldn't have been made to do that.
yes, you could very easily do a reverse version of the Python sketch, where you list loads of terrible things they've done, but I'll leave that one for another day, because it would get personal against individual royals at that point, so today isn't the day.I suppose they helped bring about the class system - a system which ensures the rich stay rich and powerful, and the poor stay poor and weak
Not to mention the despicable way he treated their mother that's got to have had huge negative impact on Harry and Williams childhood . I think he is a poor fatherHave you ever had to make that decision about what responsibility you want to burden your young children with, as they bury their mother? I have, those kids shouldn't have been made to do that.
sorry to hear that. Grief is complex, and the natural instinct of a parent should be to protect kids not burden them. I get that royals can have this sense of protocol and duty to follow, but it was a terrible decision. The public would absolutely have understood that the kids didn't follow the coffin. It felt like it was meant to show royal strength at a time that they were under severe criticism. I was appalled then, and looking back having been through that with my kids, I'm even more appalled they did it. Everyone just watching those kids, millions watching them come to terms with it on the TV for everyone to stare, waiting to see if they broke down, waiting to see them stumble, it was a horror show of a goldfish bowl existence.Sorry to hear of your loss Boromart, I lost my biological mother as a child so I’ve been on the end of something similar.
By 'rid of them' I trust you mean strip them of their titles? Yes?As a British citizen I can campaign to get rid of them in the same way I can campaign for a democratic electoral system.
Maybe I should edit it, I don't want anyone to pass out and bang their headF me, took an extra grasp of air reading that
You’re right though
Of course he does Randy, stop making something else of itBy 'rid of them' I trust you mean strip them of their titles? Yes?
Is that Angus Young’s Gibson SG
Indeed, but which one - there’s lots to chose fromLong live the king
Although the rich can become poor & the poor can become rich. Oh & the rich can also be weak.I suppose they helped bring about the class system - a system which ensures the rich stay rich and powerful, and the poor stay poor and weak
I can’t think of a member of the royal family who became poor and weak - enlighten us ?Although the rich can become poor & the poor can become rich. Oh & the rich can also be weak.
I know it doesn't suit the agenda though.
Enlighten who?I can’t think of a member of the royal family who became poor and weak - enlighten us ?
Sorry, but your ignorance of history is matched only by that of your ignorance of the constitution UK. Unless I misconstrue your comment?but we don't have Europe to keep them in check any more...
and if he ruffles enough feathers we get a republic rather than an 18th Century compromise
Who is paying you for this post.Excellent reception for the new king. Great to see, he will do his mother proud and be a great king also loved by the people like the queen.
