    Gentlemen I congratulate you - we are brilliant and the display as you say was magnificent- from all the doom and gloom we are the best nation with a royal family that sets us apart from any other country , we are the best.

    What is is about Britain’s desire to carry on with the tradition of babies born to rule.

    “Modernise” it as much as we all want, the whole malarkey of privileged inheritance helps keep this country unequal and socially immobile, weighed down by the power of birth privilege.

    The Mall was full yesterday of flag waving whack jobs creaming their kecks because three schoolkids went past them waving to them from an open top carriage...

    We are well and truly mad.

    Who’s the we all want for a start ?

    Modernised- don’t fix what isn’t broken

    There has always been wealth and you couldn’t have an equal country and rule- shall we give the governing to a president or political parties ? It’s bad enough now with the politicians “running “ the country ( a joke if ever there was one )

    The Royal family is a good thing for us , it’s sets us aside from all countries , we’re unique with heritage and history and traditions that others all look at and wish they had - and you my friend want to give it away - deluded !

    William himself has alluded to the notion our Royal Family "modernising". Boris showed us all what an anachronistic load of old bollox the constitution is and has shown how easily a rogue prime minister like Blow Job abuses an unwritten constitution, with an unelected and symbolic head of state obedient only to that prime minister.

    I read yesterday support for the Royal Family is trickling away, 27% of the UK's population no longer support this money draining anachronism. Time they did a Dyche and evaporate with their billions, I understand Germany will take them back.

    We get enough fecking practice army88. Since 2011 we've had three royal weddings and two jubilees.
    And recent polls show support for the monarchy has dropped by as much as 15% in the last two years.
    Nothing on the horizon now for perhaps another 25 years, except the succession of Charles and Princess gin swigging, ciggy smoking Camilla.
    If the lovely old lady who was born into Queendom can't sustain support for the institution, Charles and Camilla certainly won't be able to.

    Our domestic finances and quality of life are being squeezed tight from just about every angle sinkov; food banks are running out of supplies, home fuel costs have risen by 50% in the last six months, petrol is becoming almost unaffordable, but just keep calm and wave your little flag and grovel.

    Lose yourself in the pomp, the glorious spectacle, enjoy watching the lavishing of our public money on celebrating a figurehead whose birth guaranteed her the absolute best of everything.

    Hereditary roles and titles can have no place in contemporary Britain, aristocracy makes a mockery of meritocracy, you know the one, achievement by virtue of merit and hard work, not because you were born with a silver spoon stuck up your arse.

    Easily sorted that one mon ami, if you can afford tatts, facial jewelry, a mobile phone, a Sky subscription and/or holidays abroad, you can also easily afford to buy food. So owners of any of the above are not allowed to access a food bank, which will leave plenty of food available for those on their uppers who really need it.

    Job done, you're welcome, anything else I can help you with today ?
