Foxy's link showed the opinion of one person, namely a uni lecturer from Charles Sturt Uni. I can see at least one glaring fault in item 4. The vote on the form of a republic in 1999 was the form recomended by the republicans when Turnbull was the head. It was not the form chosen by the government of the day.

What republicans say now is to just vote for a republic and leave asside the form or method. Who, in their right mind, would trust present day politicians to do that and write a new constitution. The present constitution has been our only saving grace for years and there is no way we should give politicians any free leave to fiddle with it.

Our mistrust of politicians is best illustrated by the fact that they altered the wording of our national anthem after we decided which song we wanted. They simply introduced multiculturalism without any consultation with us and we have never had any say on immigration levels, yet these matters have a profound effect on all.

Now the republicans say we should trust them, yeah like car salesmen!

//Found any 'chinless wonders' yet?//

It's a turn of phrase, Is Mise, not supposed to be taken literally.

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/chinless_wonder#Noun
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=chinless%20wonder

Obviously people with receding chins still have chins.

But going off the definitions provided - upper-class English males who gain their positions through nepotism rather than competence - the Prince of Wales certainly seems to fit the bill. He's about as upper-class as it's possible to be, English, male, and attained his position through nepotism.

Although to be fair to Charles, he doesn't seem that chinless in the literal sense. And in the figurative sense he's not half as chinless as upper-class twits like Jacob Rees-Mogg, who I believe has been recently honoured with a place in the Upper-Class Twit of the Year Hall of Fame.

Prince of Wales attained his position through nepotism.
Wrong , nepotism was the choice to give Trump $200,000 at age 3.
Nepotism is giving Princess Anne the key to the Crown and glass beads that little girls love to dress up in. Or else handing the job as chief hand-waver to Sammy Smithers the cleft-palate boy of the 3rd back foot-man .

Well we tried, for a thread that was said not worth posting we got a few posts.
Next year or the one after we get to talk about it in the big boys world.

Belly, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Hell NO! Yuck. I think I'm gonna be sick.

" in that debate the question will be show me why not,."
Why can't that be the question today? Just ask it : why not. Not that hard ,just make it a question . Although grammatically speaking "show me" is not strictly a question , is it ? I mean , is it?
