They haven't had any power for two centuries, probably just as well since some of them were absolute tyrants. The last monarch to have any real power in Europe was Queen Victoria's grandkid, the Kaiser, and look what trouble he caused.
I have no problem with people celebrating and having a good time, but £100m spent on a Coronation when some families are on the breadline is a bit much.
I also question how a slapper like the Camel can be Queen when Wallace Simpson couldn't, it probably cost us our best monarch.
Die for old Lugoles? You must be f ucking joking.
When did I mention power? i said I didn't want a prat like Macron poncing about how is that better than the monarchy which is respected worldwide.
You say best monarch wasn't he closely involved with the nazis?
The comment on the King and Queen reflects more on you than on them.
As for being hard up do you really think people are worse off today than when the Queen had her coronation in 53 it didn't stop people celebrating and enjoying the day.
Some people just like to moan especially today small wonder they're called snowflakes.
