The British Monarchy | Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor arrested for misconduct in public office

Funny isn't it, a family of immense wealth, power and privilege yet quite easily one of the most dysfunctional and blind to the public they represent.
You could pluck almost any family from any random council estate in the country and throw them into the roles of royalty and they would do a better job.
 
I think 'royal status' is extremely damaging to those who receive it.

It encourages you to be a narcissistic prick like Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. Imagine being deferred to and called 'Your Royal Highness' almost from the day you stop shitting your nappies. You would have to have the character of a major saint not to be corrupted by it. Add to that unimaginable wealth, and being given absolute priority over others when travelling and, indeed, on all occasions. No wonder their heads get screwed up. They are inevitably out of touch with reality.

And imagine being an alien and landing in London and finding out that there's this particular family that is given loads of massive stately houses and castles with thousands of acres of private prime land to themselves, servants to do everything for them, cars, transport all for free.
Paid for by taxpayers even though they have nothing to do with running the country except turning up for certain occasions.
Oh and people have to bow when introduced to them.

Bonkers.

I think if they were rational beings there would be many other things that would perplex them far more, like the state of the mad old **** with command of the biggest military force on the planet, and the fact that people actually chose to put him there.

But more than that, I expect what we’re are doing to our own planet would perplex and trouble them far more than the system of monarchy in the UK. If they were rational beings. Which humans are not.

Not really.

The main reason they have swerved us for all this time is because they visited once, seen how fucking bonkers the human race is and decided, nah, let's leave them to it.

I think the only difference is the Norwegian one is being held to account and the British one isn’t. Plenty of skeletons in the British royal family’s closet that haven’t seen the light of day. Andrew is a prime example. He’d probably be in jail if they had any sort of scrutiny from our shitty media.
 
Should have been wound up on the death of Her Majesty. Its run its course and everything that goes on now just sullies her memory.
 
It’s amazing, the only people taken down by this Epstein scandal are Brits! Mandy, Andrew and Fergie, Maxwell. Now I’m not saying they’ve done nothing wrong, but it does seem they are a very convenient distraction.
