Oh God. Avoid the TV all day, forelock tugging alert!! The old cow's even knocked the migrant crisis off the headlines.
Should only last a day though. What happens when she goes to her greater glory. Do we all get a week off to grieve? |

Even the BBC website has started calling her "Her Majesty" rather than the queen - it's vomit inducing rivalled only by North Korea

I'm waiting for the day when it is calculated (as it surely will be) that the royal family costs this country more than it earns and that it has more personal wealth than ever imagined.
Then maybe more people will realise where much of their hard earned taxes and stoppages have been going. We don't need anybody "reigning" over us. As for how long..... So F'in what? |

By:
Why not put up a few hundred refugees in royal palaces, and pay for their food etc with some of the royal wealth?

I always wonder what would happen if when shaking hands somebody got her in an arm lock
![]() Not me obv. Then again Id not even turn out to see her, not that her as an individual hasnt been a great servant to the nation. The question is should there be such an individual thats paid mighty well through the civil list? For all those saying its hard work...I bet it is, but it beats going down the pit. |

Britain has changed too much since her hey day, before in times of a crises the nation turned to the Queen, nowadays in times of a crises the nation turns to facebook to see what their friends are saying, Queens speech at Xmas gets a fraction of the viewing numbers it used too, they're more of a novelty for tourists then a so called "bedrock of British society", give me strength, a monarchy in 2015 is simply outdated, they should be phased out quietly.

Its a hollow institution from times past.
All the mock tradition arcs back to what the monachy used to be and that is simply tyranny. The monarchy was about cliques giving grace and favour to those that fawned over them at the expense of the others. Sacrificed were the sons of the families who had nothing. She doesnt even write her own speach ffs. The concept of monarchy was slapped down a long time ago only to have it dangling now for tourists to gorp at. |

Best not to listen to the working classes and republicans on this, people don't trust them. And if they mock and criticize they dont deserve to be trusted either.

Monarchy same as the Catholic Church here, a thing of days gone by, only people of a certain age defend either as they were brought up to respect/fear them and they belong to a generation of people who believe it as wrong to see anything but good in them

Ive often said that the people of Britain have been fortunate that liz is a decent individual, but that doesnt justify the role.
It simply states that the people have no say in it, but things could and have been very different. Imperialism has had its day. Strains of her own family guarding power and acting like meglomaniacs resulted in the slaughter of millions. I hope I never have to find out the answer to this, but I wonder what percentage of 'her servants' would stand and fight for her or the role her position plays today? Not a large percentage Id guess, people have moved on. Ofc the armed services are sworn to, but how many would sign up? |

By:
I reckon conscription wouldnt work today either, the people are disinvested.

Not a monarchist nor do I particularly believe in God. However, God save the queen, I hope she is always here getting up the noses of the loony left all day long. Only costs us about a quid a year, worth a quid of anyone's money.
