Sorry mate, just re read your post. Groom Of The Stool it is then.

As long as it's for Prince Edward.

You would make an excellent Privy councillor.

Thank fuck i am no longer funding this family.

You never fucking were just like no tax payer does.

 

[SWP's back]

That's a very good point actually mate.

Apart from the fact you and @gordondaviesmoustache miss the point that they aren't a descendent of Henry VIII at all. That bloodline died with Liz 1.

According to wiki she is a direct descendent of William the Bastard.

I should have posted Henry VII. Mea culpa.

Only in so much as the fact that everyone born white in the U.K. is.

(1,000 years is 40 generations

Two parents, 4 grand parents, 8 great grandparents etc. When you go back 40 generations the figure is greater than the number of people ever born "1,099,511,627,776 people" and thus the chances are we will all share some of his genes)

I believe most Europeans can trace their roots back to Charlemagne, it just becomes one big melting pot when you go far enough back.

The Royals?

I like them.

Jim was my favourite.

 

[Len Rum]

Republican Peasants can butch and moan and they want I guess.

Will make fuck all difference.

Hey mate just watching Peston on ITV - Theresa Villiers, Tristram Hunt, Philip Hammond on - nobody seems to be questioning the premisethat the Taxpayer is funding the Buck Palace repairs,the only debate being around whether Liz should chip in.
Just thought you'd be interested.

Then they really should understand where it's coming from.

Yes you are.

The British passport is after all issued by the Secretaries of State in the Queen's personal name under the Royal Prerogative. By applying for a British passport you are indirectly supporting the British Monarchy by paying a small royalty to Buckingham Palace (Royal Household), the Crown Estate, the Duchy of Lancaster, Sandringham and Balmoral, at least 1% for every one issued.

By bearing, holding and keeping the Queen's passport abroad, availing yourself fully to Her Majesty's Protection from Her Majesty's agents, you are necessarily a bit of a hypocrite for espousing republican nonsense.

You therefore need to surrender your British passport to the Embassy for cancellation and apply to register a declaration of renunciation of British nationality.

You need to get with the lefty programme where repetition transforms a lie into the truth.

I always thought Len was better than resorting to an argument from authority anyway.

Funniest thing I've read on here for months! I'm a hypocrite for keeping a British passport? Well until the UK citizens are offered the choice of holding a Queens passport or a republican one I have no choice. Choice eh? A great thing to be offered. Is the UK a democracy or dictatorship?
My passport was issued before I left, so again, I no longer fund that family. I have 5 years left on my passport, will let you know in 5 years if I renew it or have applied for a Yank passport.

Perfect timescales. See how you get on with 4 years of Donald Fucking Trump and reassess!

I don't think my life will be any different with 4 years with Trump or 4 years of Clinton or 4 years with the tories or Labour.

That's the truth of it.
