The British Monarchy

[BlueHammer85]

My mate is head of armed response at the airport and trained bodyguard, he was meant to go on holiday yesterday but didn’t go as he was asked to go and do security for the king of Kuwait
He wasn’t sure but I think the money involved helped his mrs in her decision lol


What this funeral must be costing is mind blowing

It's also generating millions though

think of the travel costs alone from tourism and people outside of London coming into the city to join the que

Oh I know I wasn’t moaning, just realising the size of the operation involved

A couple on my road arrange a macmillan coffee morning every year. A few neighbours sit on the street for an hour with a raffle and a little stall. Was arranged for this Sunday. They have cancelled it out of respect for the queen. Totally baffling. A small cancer charity event on a different day being cancelled.

That’s not the royals fault though, unless they’ve threatened beheadding.

Wasn’t saying it was pal. Just that I found the decision baffling

People are afraid of cancel culture.

Mike they already got rid of the Royal yacht Britannia and the Royal train, she came back from Edinburgh on a C 14 troop carrier, this afternoon an ancient gun carriage[/ QUOTE]

They haven’t got rid of the Royal Train. It lives in Wolverton Works in Buckinghamshire and is used on average about 15 times a year. It’s actually a relatively cheap method of them travelling around Britain compared to the alternatives.

Plans were scrapped to use it to transport the Queen’s body back from Scotland for logistical and safety reasons. They had got as far as transforming one of the carriages in to a hearse type thing before the decision was made.

Apologies, I seem to have fucked the quoting thing up there. But I think it’s obvious which are my words so I won’t bother deleting it and starting again.

Glad to see sense returning and only just over 1/3rd wanting then abolished.

Conversely, I’m amazed that less than 50% want to have some Germans ruling over us, especially at a time where we’re being bombarded 24/7 with pro-monarchy propaganda.

I‘m not really that arsed either way but I think the pro-Charles the whatever fervour will subside dramatically when the propaganda diminishes and everyone remembers he was Jimmy Saville‘s best mate (and Rolf’s) and brother to one of Epstein’s clique who claims he can’t sweat and who recently forked out £12million to a girl he didn’t know and had never met to make a claim of sexual abuse of a minor go away.

Each to their own though.

Just put the telly on, get a cup of tea and a selection of biscuits and enjoy the show you miserable get ;)
