Royalty

(citation needed)

(citation needed)

In a previous job incarnation, when HRH the people's duchess of hearts, the lustrous-haired Kate, wore one of our frocks they subsequently sold out within hours. (Not sure if the Queen's twinsets do the same, mind).
Obv all the proceeds go to the owner and shareholders but the taxpayer gets a few quid from that. (And I got a bonus so huzzah for the Royals).

Basically they're all fucking lizards and should be exiled to a colony under the sea where they can continue to mate with each other as much as they please without the "all in it together" taxpayer having to pay for it.

What did I miss? Did the Queen beat Bobby Charlton's record?

People like coldplay and voted for the nazis

^ same people.

You need to get one of the idle spongers to wear some of those less popular Rapha colours in public.

Sorry guys but I didn't understand, what's the solution?

Someone can do a résumé?

I think that the chat about whether they are value for money slightly misses the point. Hereditary monarchy is an anathema to an ideal of a meritocratic democracy, and its links to a theocracy are so antiquated and laughable as to be insulting.

I care not for a positive business case for the royals in the same way that I do not look for a net present value for paedophilia or racism.

Who cares if she costs the country money or not? She costs me money and I detest the existence of her role.

As always mashton expresses the point eloquently, simply and succinctly.

There is no place for this feudal legacy in a modern democracy.

the queen has almost 70% of the country giving her a good approval

Let's put it to the test. Let her stand for election. Let us get the arguments out in the open.

This country's political and constitutional development occurred in the way that it did because people stood up to the crown. Sadly this aspect of Englishness appears to have disappeared as the press and lots of others toady up to them like 11 year old girls to One Direction.

What are the figures for David Beckham?

In England dinosaurs still roam except they are lizards.

What are the figures for David Attenborough?

Prince Margaret were lovely* tho werent she?

A drunken, selfish pleasure seeker like so many so called 'musicians'
but at least she had the decency to release no singles.

Fuck the royals and all who blow their beans up them.

*a cunt

She didn't do a "Best of" album either which was decent of her.

One has to worry that Charles might.

It's a sort of pleasure to see Clive's thread sounding good though. He has a concise taste about music.

<< tips hat at @cliveo >>

Me tips hat at the both of you for the reciprocal exchange in hat tipping while resuming too.

Charles

ugggh Charles!!! he is such a big eared minger.
Also I bet his tunes are gash.

'She ain't no human being' - so perspicacious

Funny fucker.

@villa-ru I love the fact that selling out of a dress is - stop me if I'm wrong - your example of why these Saxe Coburg Gotha Windsor nazi fuckwits really ought to carry on ripping us off.

Clive, can't you and your lawyer mates bring some case forward to make the royals abdicate, then have to work to pay us back? Or is assassination the only way?

I bet a Russian oligarch (or pirate or Bond villain or whatever the fuck) would pay to fuck an heir to the British throne.

Start earning motherfuckers

Ha! Not really @Skülly - I was more responding to the 'citation needed' response to greenhell's graphic. I'm pretty ambivalent about the Royals - if we get the odd day off from them popping their clogs or getting crowned, that's fine by me.

ambivalent about the Royals

wrong thread, your highness.
