    Logo looks suspect to this day.
    Donaldson was living in America when the National Party of Scotland started up. You need to stop taking Twitter pish as fact.

    Donaldson looks an incredibly dodgey character.

    Elizabeth has been a fantastic head of state, her husband has also been fantastic.
    So we're to ignore the fact that King George the something was a massive nazi at a time when Kings of England actually had real influence? Okeh then.

    He's a calming influence and when he pokes "gentle" fun it's usually deserved.

    I see him as trying to be a guiding figure for "The other one"😁....his post was the equivalent of saying "any more of that and I'll stop you're pocket money"....which is fairly strong for Bcram.

    Sorry Taintedice I think you are mixing up the allegations made in fictional programmes like The Crown about Edward VIII and his marriage to Mrs Simpson during the mid 1930's. Thats when the Nazi issue arose. The monarchy have not had real power for a very long time. When James VI was invited to become monarch of the United Kingdom in 1707 he was invited to do so by the Westminster Parliament which had been United, hate that description, in 1603..I tried to find a date when the absolute monarch was amended to create the system we currently have.

    Yes, of course, execution of Charles 1 and good old Commonwealth led by Oliver Cromwell as an alternative. Didn't last and they 8nvited Charles 11 to come back.
