The republicanism thread.

I've not read the thread. I've been respectful and left well alone the last 11 days
But just to get it off my chest, I'm not a fan of the royal family and have found the whole national grief thing embarrassing. With the state of this country at the moment, millions spent on some historic pageantry seems ridiculous to me.
But kind of says it all about this country, its people and is why we have someone like Liz Truss in charge now. Someone that will royally fk this country up, in the couple of years she has in charge. Mini Maggie hasn't a compassionate bone in her body. A career politician with horrible right-wing ideals (these days!), she will spoil for war, work tirelessly to make the richer, richer and has zero compassion for the majority. But hey she's not a Leftie!

If only the majority of this country had a brain...

And of course you are perfectly entitled to your opinion, as are we all…..

I think that what has happened here is that 3.5 billion of those people turned the telly on and immediately turned it off and then turned
it back on an hour later and saw that it was still on only to turn it off again....... ad infinitum. ;)
That would make more sense :D

I think this would also explain the viewing figures for Mrs Browns Boys

The women died in a horrific accident, and the public expected comment....the queen went and hid in Scotland to avoid saying anything. Blair chased her down and had to pressure her into saying something.

so you agree that she said nothing.

The Queen had a simple philosophy, Never Complain, Never Explain. She stuck to that and concentrated on her Grandchildren, until she was ready to say something.

maybe you want to try using a different word as 'Vilify" is clearly not correct

Like to see the bill for it.

well she certainly wasn't sad enough to tell the country when it was expected, and it took Tony Blair to point out the damage she was doing to her reputation to actually get her to say anything. Keep that head buried though

Tony Blair the ethical, noble and righteous gentleman himself? The man who has more blood on his hands than a blood bank, that Tony Blair?

I know right, and in that moment even he was more moral than the Queen, whodathunkit

Let’s not speculate BM, none of us know what went on really. All we can be certain of is that there’s more chance that the queen will be delivering this years Christmas speech than Britain becoming a republic 👏🏿

If we could strip then of 95% of the assets they acquired then I would be happy for them to them stay as head of state.

Why do they need money anyway. They surely don't pay for anything. Bet Chaz has never had a credit card declined for lack of funds. Does he even have a credit card.
What do they actually pay for that does not come from the taxpayer.
