"Royalty to Britain is what Disneyland is to the US."

I think the Disney characters are more believable. Mickey Mouse would make an excellent King.

Meanwhile, enjoy this -

Wobbles being so unhappy must be hard, you have my sympathy.

I have been rude, with deliberate forethought, in this thread.
While Julia Gillard is no mate of mine.
She is our prime minister.
Not the wife of one.
Not a direct servant as is the Governor General, Gillard is not required to humble us, or her self.
I very much doubt, any woman, any man, in the world, should be bowed to.
My ramble in the news this morning found a story from NSW northern Rivers.
Bloke, I like already, named Windsor, has offered to take Liz cat fishing, but she would have to skin them!
He say every one is equal in his home, goodonya bloke!
If a told my two Mini Foxies to bite anyone, they would laugh, and kiss the target,they love every one.
So why the anger.
Gillard, look and learn, is being used, her unpopularity is being used by a lie,she acted within protocol.
And my remarks about Royal family rudeness? understated!
Liz once very nice looking was never a patch on Diana, History is full, of partly hidden, affairs wrong actions, even one son trotting around dressed as a NAZI!
OK every family has its black sheep.
Are we aware, it has only been the last 80 years,that Royal family's stopped inbreeding on purpose?

Is Philip Elizabeth's cousin?
Charles is not that weird, he won a west Australian Stock mans peeing comp.
Seems he wet the tree further up than any one,shame about his eyesight.
Loverly lady he wed is ok but last one was great!
Royal family? we seem convinced being a celebrity makes some better than the family up the road,why?

Saw nothing about the old girl being wed to her cousin, almost impossible if wedding a Royal not to.
Poor old Phil gets the Sharpe end of her tongue, most for walking Corgi Pooh in to the carpet.
Now if she learns to play cricket, well maybe I would duck, but only if she is a fast bowler

Under what system of Government were our parliaments formed and appointed? Please tell me how we can actually improve on the current signatory on legislation?
