Youri McAnespie Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Making money is a piece of piss. It's also dependent on whether you can be arsed to. When I have money I struggle to spend it, it's rare I hanker after owt. I dress like a fucking tramp when amongst scum, why bother, I make an effort when with people of my calibre.

Site Supporter RONNIE PHILLIPS Posted January 13, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted January 13, 2022 I understand the viewpoint that the Queen has served her country well for 70yrs but its undermined for me because I can't see how she couldn't possibly have known of Andrews exploits & Charles & his special friendship with the most prolific nonce this country has ever known.

MancWanderer Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Would anyone want any of the Prime Ministers of the last god knows how many years as our “head of state”? I’m no monarchist by any means btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Louis Theroux down as a good egg and he was hoodwinked by Sir Jim, I think some nonce in Wolverhampton was more prolific than Jim, but nobody believed his victims because they were all youth offenders and reeked of crime.

Also, fuck off you French cunt https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finances_of_the_British_royal_family I know it's wiki, but it is a myth that the Queen gets paid shit loads from taxpayers. It's more nuanced than that, and she, and Charlie pay money equivalent to income tax on their earnings. Given the amount of pioneering, environmentally beneficial work he does with the estate, the work with charities, tax etc, I reckon they doing their bit.

We're a country, not a fucking Religion. I used to think we would never have some dick like Bush Snr, Bush Jnr or Trump as the head shed. Then we got Falafel Johnson. If she actually had any influence at all, there is no way she would have allowed Mogg lie to her, Falafel to continuously lie in Parliament and this shitshow to continue. Royalty pointless really but I am not sure if it's actually costing us much to keep such tradition? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tourist attractions won't fall down if they fuck off. There's nothing stopping any of them from doing Charity work in their own time if they're that concerned.

Who possibly could? True but she was raised that way. It was her duty drummed into her since she could comprehend. Same for Charles and William but which will be next, who knows? Harry has taken another path, good for him. This line won't last another king or two before it all ends anyway, or just becomes irrelevant. I personally don't see the issue with them apart from nonce Andrew. And maybe his ex missus who was a screw loose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I genuinely think she feels a sense of duty. She's a product of her environment - just like you are. Whether having a royal family is the right thing for the country is another matter altogether. But our elected officials haven't exactly been covering themselves in glory recently either have they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what your point is mate? Without a head of state, leader, or whatever, if a democracy is in place, who leads on the decisions that have been made?
