Am not entirely sure these demonstrably bewildered people know why they’re really there or have actually asked themselves why they’re upset enough about a woman many only listened to once a year at Christmas to travel to London or wherever and share their public grief. “She’s been a constant in my life” doesn’t mean a fuckin thing as far as I can make out. The last few days have made me realise for the first time that the Royal Family are basically a cult, and most Brits are in it. It’s like they’ve got a magical power over the population, they’ve woven a spell on most of us….centuries of indoctrination, almost like the church but since the end of WW2 it seems to me that we’ve unconsciously rejected organised religion in most forms . We’re nowhere near getting rid of the strange power of the crown though…

This FTW. It’s doing my head in atm with all the pro-republic politicans going “now is not the time to talk about being a republic!” Actually yes now is the exact time to talk about it, before the gormless cunt Chuck gets his hooks into things. As colonies we actually pay these cunts and then when they wish to tour the antipodes to “touch” their subjects, we also have to pay for that! Fuck’em. Robert Smith’s best work since Disintegration is what he says about the royals.

I’m happy to have left all of this bullshit behind tbpfh. I have dual NZ/UK citizenship so I can pretend it’s none of my business but I find the whole thing embarrassing. My missus (who isn’t British) laps up all of this nonsense of course, but she doesn’t get the connection between the pomp and ceremony and the centuries of servility that underpin the institution and the establishment. And it’s a waste of time trying to explain it as I just end up sounding like an old grouch. Honestly I took one look at the middle aged men in silly outfits (waving around silver pointy sticks that Ken Dodd would've been proud of) and I thought fuck this no thanks. What goes through these peoples minds…how do they take this medieval cos play nonsense seriously and look at themselves in the mirror? Why do people turn out to cheer and wave flags for this bunch of chinless sponging invertebrates? Tldr They can stick their “liege lord” bollocks up their arse imo. I’d vote for a republic tomorrow here or there given half a chance.

The goal line officials used to look like they’ve been pulled out of a butcher’s shop to help out too. Dunno if they still wear that get up?

So that’s that confirmed Tom, CT has a cheap set of near new clubs in the garage somewhere for you when you are ready.

Not many people know this, but within the bounds of Sunderland's city walls, the Queen would respond enthusiastically to being called Her Royal Marrajesty.

Just passed my HGV theory, hazard perception and Case Study tests in town. I’m a happy chap, as the online practice and revision site I was using was giving me fails on 9 out of 10 of my hazard attempts. Turns out they were using shitty, out of date clips and the actual test was a piece of piss. Since I got the Metro in, I’ve had a stroll along to the Free Trade for a spot of drunch

Like a little Yorkshire E.T.

First guest on "I Don't Believe It!" with @wykikitoon? Shithouse sports and their fuckwit supporters.

Leave those tanks alone!

And lion-shaped crisps 👍🏻

You want to start listening to some of that there ambient music

She was proper kids TV royalty, none of this born into it rubbish Loved me a bit of Grange Hill back in the days. Gripper Stebson was pure evil, thus worthy of admiration.

Can't tell what the kid said/did there but he was definitelty assaulted and his accosters look to have got off scot free. Love it how these forelock tuggers keep going on about the Queen bringing unity to this country. She didn't, it just transpires that people who disagree with these people are threatened with arrest and violence.

Sunderland still isn't a city for the god fearing Catholic or person of taste. God deliberately put cathedral's there so we'd know where cities were. It's pretty simple. If we were deciding City status on joplins department stores or Jackie Whites fish market than by all means Sunderland is a city but we don't and it's not.

It's where I go for the most up to date information on Newcastle United, Sam Fender & Geopolitical issues.

Think I may need to use my phone..... Edit: Oh my.

A nice start would be for King Charles to pay his inheritance tax due. He's exempt.

Exactly this. All of this.

Ahem, they'll pass any fucker since Brexit.

Had a great night at the women’s IT20 at Durham on Saturday. Obviously the crowd wasn’t anywhere near what it would be for the men’s game but it was pretty full and I got to chat to Kate Cross at the end of the game who said the ladies were absolutely chuffed with the crowd and would love to play up here more. England had a comfortable win and Alice Capsey is going to be an absolute star of the future. First international game for the bairn too who had a thoroughly good time 😊

Surprised I never got into it, now you mention it

If there was even a hint of normality and objective comment about the whole thing then paying £12m she didn’t earn to prevent her paedo son from having to appear in court would cast a massive shadow over everything else she did. As I think Renton mentioned that’s been completely airbrushed out of history. I agree about the gaslighting re: the public mood too. My parents were born at the end of / just after the war and even in my mam’s case (who believes most of what she reads in the Mail) she just thinks it’s a bit sad but the queen had a good innings. My dad isn’t affected one way or the other and doesn’t have any strong feelings about the monarchy in general. At work we’ve had numerous emails from senior civil servants about looking after ourselves at this extremely distressing time etc. Most of my colleagues are understandably more concern with the government plan to reduce the workforce by 90,000. The next step will be branding any strike action (nurses being balloted now in what would be unprecedented iirc) ‘unpatriotic’ at this time. While it’s scary how many actually lap this shit up it’s even scarier how the majority who clearly don’t are being told what to think / how to feel

I’m having this printed on T-shirt.

Aussie rules used to be a game for thugs and hard men. I’ve never cared for it though, too much long kicking (bit like watching Allardyce’s toon)

Forgot about those weirdo fucks. I believe they have return the butcher’s jacket and hats to their rightful owners and now as a professional sport wear more appropriate garb. Stupidly they’ve missed a trick as those had more sponsorship real estate they could have sold! They still wave their arms, sans flags, like they are directing parking planes! Fuck I hate that cunt of a game. BTW Viduka is a huge Collingwood fan who are black and white stripe gurnsies (yes the stupid cunts can’t even call them shirts or jerseys) and allegedly that was one of the reasons he wanted to sign for the toon.

That fucked up game the Oirish convicts brought with them but then found the ruling types only had egg balls and cricket pitches so the cunts stuck 8 sticks in the ground and tried to call it football, you know aerial ping pong! No one gets a holiday for the thugby league grand final, Victorian cunts! Egg chasers, cunts the lots of them.

The fucking cheek of this post

Any media lovies crying about arrests can fuck right off as it was this government they shitfested in who passed the bill saying that the police only needed reasonable grounds that a protest would cause distress or alarm to act. Did they oppose said bill? Did they fuck.

It was pointed out on here recently that Sunderland didn’t even exist (whereas Newcastle was a major city) at the time of the English Civil War

Judging by the number of "I'm a grown man and I'm literally in tears marra' style comments, and a seeming determination to have Liz renamed as "Queen Elizabeth the Great", I guess it must have been!

I’m blocked by him on Twitter but has William Storey got anything to say about all this?

I meant YOU, you flamin' galah.

5- None, but it's ok to claim you have killed some if your name is Wearside Jack.

Hey everyone, look at Dave, look at how middle class he's become! Surely though the M6 to the Penrith one would have been quicker, also give you the chance to bookend the trip with a vist to the Lakes? You're turning into a right southern ponce.

The bloke on the left looks more like the Queen than the supposed lookalike.

Nothing to do with the fact she looks fuck all like her

'Out of respect'

Their thread at the moment is absolutely funny as fuck Listing names of 9/11 victims etc etc. Absolute performative fume aots

First read, I thought you meant an actual skunk.

Golf and fanny munching. CT's big hobbies in the 80s. The one ended the other.

No, she can put up with it.

They can send the ammunition back to Russia one at a time.

When iplayer wasn't working earlier, I announced "I hate that cunt even more now". Hell on.

My lass had a little cry and thinks it's right the football was called off and thinks I'm being a bit unreasonable. We're tiptoeing around the subject tbh.
