I'm not ower bothered about Her Madge, she seems to have her heart in the right place despite hew upbringing.

Her bloke seems to have been a bit of a twat though. probably inspired de piffle and his Bullingdon chums to their twattish beliefs and actions.

Andrew should have been outed years ago but Rochdale, Rotherham, Sheffield, Catholic Church and any institution you can think of shows you how "the establishment" closes ranks to cover up owt that makes them look bad, and sod the victims.

The fact that the flag sh@ggers and Tories keep trotting her out as someone to revere stands against her though.

So it's a NO, by association.

Who are the “flag shaggers”?

Not a lot of support for Her Majesty and this special and remarkable anniversary.

I wonder how long I could stay in a job, given the level of social welfare that Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of Her other Realms and Territories Queen, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith, gets. Probably a lot longer that I may have.

The shorter life expectancy of the Scots is food for thought.

I am currently down under and it’s a zero event here, as they are celebrating national reconciliation and forgiveness having brutalised the native population since Cook turned up. Interestingly, I am looking at a lease to continue despoiling the environment and the question of landownership and mineral rights was naturally raised.

A landowner only owns the top soil and a wee bit under it. Everything else, including extraction rights, all over Oz is owned by The Crown! Landowners are not allowed to prohibit or refuse access to exploit natural reserves.

No wonder Majesty is smiling! I understand that the same principle applies in the U.K.. The Crown isn’t going anywhere soon, like China, it’s in it for the long haul.

I don't Toot for Tiaras.

Didn't Her Majesty look happy on the balcony, resplendent and smiling surrounded by her family, the military and subjects beneath.

I can't wait for the celebratory measurements and weights act to enforce the return of imperialism. I do hope we see telephone kiosks return, it's never been the same since they went.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, this is what I think of when I am asked about the UK.
