40 weeks of nightmare Royal Baby news...

[Supersub6]

BT,I really think that you are living in the wrong country!
You seem to find so much wrong with the UK, its history and its legacy (as you call the Royal Family) that I am sure you find life so much better as one of Comrade Putin's right hand men, particularly as they have no Royals to worry about and that all the wealth will be distributed fairly amongst all the people. No poor people in Russia then because everyone is equal and can express their opinions under the umbrella of Human Rights. Go on, go for it, you know that you really want to and you don't even have to worry about Brexit.
Utopia!!!

My son-in-law is an ex-military man just like you Supersub6. He was equally brainwashed with the God, Queen and country malarkey.

I have nothing but respect for our serving military men and women. Indeed, I recently visited a passing out parade down at Pirbright that my son-in-law was the Drill Sergeant for. I could not believe the amount of young women who were on parade and just how physically fit they are.

However, I can still not buy into the bowing and scraping most of you lot do whenever one of this lot shows up...

Fairly easy one for me to answer is this sinkov. It is hard not to still feel an intense sort of rage at the incompetence and cruelty of a governing class that put brave and resolute soldiers through hell in their mechanisation and normalisation of war.

In Russia, the grotesque slaughter perpetrated in World War 1 was probably the primal cause of the great revolution of 1917, sadly not repeated here in Britain.

The legacy they fought and died for, here...

You really are one mixed up kid BT, they fought and died for you, they fought and died for the ruling class, they fought and died for the Royal family. Sit down with a nice cup of tea, have a good think about it, make your mind up, and then tell us what it was all about. At the moment you don't seem to have a feckin clue.

The futility of war seems to be a bit beyond your grasp sinkov. You just keep on turning up to wet your kecks whenever the Royal train hits the Ribble Valley, there's a good chap.

[Supersub6]

It is a pity that the futility of war was not so clear to Tony Blair and Alastair Campbell in recent years.
Wonderful to see Campbell blustering away the other night on TV when he was saying that the government could not ignore 100,000 marching against Brexit. Andrew Neil pointing out to him that he and Blair seemed to ignore millions protesting about invading Iraq, thus leading to more bluster from Campbell.

[The Bedlington Terrier]

Jeremy Corbyn canvassed and canvassed not to invade Iraq, but it fell on deaf ears because neither Blair or Campbell are socialists. The futility of war to which I constantly refer is Europe's monarchy and ruling class who inspired the death and wounding of a total number of military and civilian casualties in World War I of more than 38 million people.
There were over 17 million deaths and 20 million wounded, making it amongst the deadliest conflicts in human history. The total number of deaths included about 11 million military personnel and about 7 million civilians and to what end? And this born into obscene wealth and privilege tosser still wants us to bow and scrape to him...

Nah!

I didn't know that it was all Charlie's fault. He just doesn't look that old.

Nah!

Have a read up on Russian history BT, while you're having that nice cup of tea, then tell us how many millions of their own people the Socialists in Russia managed to see off outside of WW2. But don't stop at Russia, research the number of people estimated to have been killed by Socialist regimes worldwide, and then come back and tell us what a threat to us all that Prince Charles and his family is.

You seem to have become fixated with the Ribble Valley BT, never a post goes by without you mentioning it. It is indeed a very pleasant place to live, but you don't have to be envious, you don't have to live in a ****hole like Bolton, you're perfectly free to move over here. You wouldn't have far to travel for your sausages then.

WWi and WW2 had nothing to do with our Royal Family BT.

WW2 had everything to do with the German National Socialist Party.

On Iraq, I bet you continued to vote for Labour afterwards? If you were really principled then why didn't you support the Lib Dems at the time - the only party to oppose the adventure?

Corbyn voted against his own Labour Government countless times - he was very obviously in the wrong party - he is quite obviously in the right one now.
But...he is very much a Brexiteer at heart - check his voting record - who is leading a party of whom 90% of the members would vote to remain if given the chance.

I actually think that John Smith was the best PM we never had. I was certainly considering supporting him when he was leader.
But then along came Blair and his cronies who also took the party over - but in a totally different direction.
