Coronation of King Charles 3rd

[Worsleyweb]

It was funny and it resonated with millions. Not everyone thinks the same and that should be ok. Or is freedom of speech only ok if it’s your view being spouted? Sure seems that way. There’s kids going hungry today and we spend £100m on this? Classy.

We all have our own definitions of class.

Hilarious. Well the City fans acted with class today and your post about barely singing it was as I originally said complete bollox.

Indeed we do.

View attachment 77875My daughter far right. Very proud.

Very pleased for you and your family, let's be honest without the discipline and dedication of the armed services we wouldn't have had any pomp and circumstance.

God bless all those who serve our country

Abolish the monarchy

I want to live in a truly democratic society. Not one that uses police state tactics to shut peaceful protest down

Like France? Who literally used police state tactics the other week to stop peaceful protests

You’re going to struggle to find a truly democratic state, with or without a monarchy. I’d argue Britain is one of the most democratic nations in the world as well

Well, if we did have that kind of democracy and we had a vote I reckon the vast majority of people would want the anti-oil protestors to fuck off and let us get on with our lives, and would also want anti royalists to just fuck off. So not sure you would really like to live in that kind of country.

I'm not sure those protests in France were peaceful...

Im not trying to 'find' anything, I am saying what I want the UK to be.

The UK is barely a democratic nation so your last point is nonsensical.

Head state not voted for
House of Lords not voted for
Parliament elected on a truly unrepresentative first past the post system

The government is literally passing laws designed to shut down protests which they deem a 'nuisance'

If the majority of this country voted for what happened today I would support it

What I think would have been classy and the best way to start his reign, would be to say, I know times are hard for the people of my country, so my Cornwall of Duchy estates will pay for the Coronation.,

He would be known as Good King Charles III. I thought he might do that, I actually quite like him. He can afford it and his reign would have started off spectacularly well, connecting with people in a brilliant way.

The City fans belted out GSTK before kick off.

some did, not all was very tame and wasn't vocal enought to be heard in city sq or outside the ground like most chants are

The fact that you would even consider that as a good thing shows how incredibly low our expectations of these people are

Bullshit that’s me done for the night.

people see what they want to see.

I stayed outside for the anthem and bar the music played wouldn't know it was sung, I can sit in me mams on a match day (obviously never have ) on the estate behind D's and hear city fans word for word (as me mam has)

it was not sang with any conviction or pride today

People see what they want to see and indeed hear. Very very true in your case. Your obsession with the days events tells us all we need to know.

Barely a democratic nation? Tell that to people in Hong Kong, Poland and the countless number of countries that don’t have the freedoms/ democratic rights that we have.

Even if we changed all the things you have issue with, I have no doubt you’d still say similar points.

 

[dronefromsector7G]

Such a serious subject. Why do people care so much about how loud our fans sing the anthem?

I don't think the majority vote for anything anymore. Here lies the problem. Let people support what happened today. I am not one of them. But I would not want it too be stopped either. Millions are happy today ,fuck the cost. No one will fuck about costs if we get to Istanbul or the scousers House Eurovision. Every large occasion occurs costs it is what it is. ( last bit not directed at u jack )

So what you're basically saying is because of thsse other countries that are worse off we should be happy with what we have and never seek to improve it?

I want it to be stopped firstly because I am a taxpayer and secondly because no one voted for it. This shouldn't be a controversial statement!!

The majority of people voted for brexit and that happened

Thought that Penny women looked rather fine today.

She does have her knockers.

I think if everyone got of their arse and voted it may be different, maybe not. Chill
