IsMise sorry bloke my fault, will try better, see at first I thought I was in conversation with someone who had some understanding.
Nicknamenick
.
Now no! never ever support a dictatorship, and no one here will ever be a bigger critic of my party when needed.
In fact I wait for the next great leader/reformer not yet in sight.
He/She will if not done before, bring about a republic, maybe a new flag, one we will love as much as the ones, there are other ones, that came before.
He/She may oversee a new National anthem, one we know all the words to, if these things take place they will be the wishes of the people, not a few disgruntled for the sake of it posters here

Now for IsMise, if I could read your mind, and posted only things you agree with, in my view you would still haunt me to complain about my posts.
Mate do you understand what that is saying?
How can you think my disdain for Charley is based on not understanding him?
Can you in your love of him have overlooked what his country thinks about him
Did you not hear see feel the pain when Diana died?
Can it be the rumor that his son not him will mount the throne not have reached you? to save the *firm* HRH the Queens term for an over fed overpaid group leaching on its people.
I understand mate, just do not agree

Belly, I just want to make a correction on one of your points.
I realise that the left don't like people who are above them in every way, but I must highlight one very important and irrefutable fact.
And that is; even though the current ruler of the Commonwealth did nothing herself, she inherited the Commonwealth and all the countries within, from her predecessors.
It is no different from your ancestors having led a group of people to fight and overthrow another land owner or invader and by winning the battle won the rights to the other party's lands and all they own.
That was the way it was, back in history, we can't change that.
So here we are today and all the spoils of the past have been handed down to the next in line, as is tradition, and the current 'owner' of all these spoils (countries) is the current Queen of England.
The rulers of the day cede to the wishes of the people of a country, if they wish to became self ruling, they may still choose to remain in the 'Commonwealth' and partake in all that the Commonwealth has to offer.
I felt an explanation was necessary, because I gather from your demeanor that you do not approve of such things as the upper or ruling class as though somehow it demeans the people into subservience.
If you hate monarchy's that much, you will hate a republic even more.
The reason royalty are a better choice is that they don't aspire to be who they are.
People, just ordinary people, who aspire to the position of President or Prime Minister are the ones who deserve your hatred and derision, because they are posers, thieves, cheats, charlatan, con-men and so on.
I much prefer royalty than commoners.
At least with royalty they were born into the role of ruler/leader.
You can see what idiots and morons are like when given too much power, such as govt ministers and they are continually infighting to see who gets the key to the public purse next.

Smarten up! This stupidity was knocked in the head long ago. Given the increased exposure of the young 'royals' the monarchy is becoming more popular than ever. Perhaps some posters here are just testing Belly to see how big a fool he can make of himself. He would have fitted in very well with the crazed mob screaming around the French guillotine as the royal and aristocratic heads dropped into the basket. It's amazing that there are people as backward as Belly still in existence.

Skill with a rubber stamp is needed by the firm , PoW and GG. Charles drove a boat , jumped from a plane and avoided crashing his plane. "Knowing that the remainder of the section was elsewhere on other tasks, Lieutenant Cosgrove ran to the contact area and personally conducted the fight against the enemy. As a result of his actions, two enemy were killed and three weapons and four packs containing rice were captured." However, the pen is mightier than the sword and are made in Fujian China by manufacturers of Paragon pens with almost no karate skill.

Belly,

In the OP you said," British Royal family, its self imported from Germany".

Why emphasize the German bit?

Are you being racist?

Why not mention, just to be fair, that they are also of English, Irish, Welsh and Scots descent?
