The anthem is offensive to me on several levels and I make a point of never standing for it let alone singing it. 

 

Caliing on a deity I don't believe in (but just one to the exclusion of the others citizens might follow) to protect a person born to that role by notional descent (they ran out of direct descendents of William I and had to bring in a German branch to keep the thing going) is a non-starter. 

 

No celebration of the people or country or sense of commonality as others have. 

 

"Born to reign over us" / "long to reign over us"  _ a change made to the latter as that's somehow better when it's the "reign over us" that's the problem - this also backs the point I made earlier that they don't "serve us" - they rule us. 

 

If I was Scottish I'd also love "rebellious Scots to quell" - there's a rallying call for independence right there in the national fucking anthem. 

 

 

To my dying day, I will never understand why people are happy to subjects rather than citizens, and being reigned over like we are fucking corgis. Its so fundamentally wrong in this day and age.

 

Was thinking this morning what a sham our democracy is. In one week we have changed prime minister and head of state, and the people have had no say in this whatsoever. We don't even live in a nominal democracy.

Mad watching that Privy Council stuff. Because this stuff hasn't happened for so long you don't realise quite what's involved. Then you see oh it's the psycho who just got made PM by 80,000 mad pensioners. And there's the lass she gave a job to 2 days ago who now gets to swear in a new King. And there's some bloke from the Church, presumably selected by God to add his signature to the whole thing too. 

 

It's fucking barmy. 

 

We all saw the cunty side of the new King when some stuff on the desk got in the way of him adding his fucking MASSIVE signature to something.

Someone my lass works with was meant to be going travelling round Italy for a couple of weeks. She’s cancelled and gone to stay with her cousin in Hertfordshire so she can see the Queen lying in state and see the funeral procession. Absolutely fucking mental :lol: 

Fuck me, what a cretin.

 

Her vote (assuming she knows how to spell ‘x’) counts the same as ours.

I’ve met her and she seems ok. But i can’t get my head round this. My lass thought she was winding her up at first as a few of them had been taking the piss out of the overreaction. But no, deadly serious :lol:

One of my mates says he is driving to Edinburgh today to be near the body. Asked me on WhatsApp if I wanted a lift to join him. I remember having arguments about the monarchy with him the past, and he is a royalist, but I can't tell I he is being serious about this and dare not ask now. Just haven't answered the message.

 More than the 6 billion the changeover will cost?

100%

 

Personally I think we are very lucky to have all this pomp and imagery. Whether it’s the Royals, 007 or Paddington, they all create this persona of the UK that brings in the ££££’s

Tell him you hope he has a 6 car pile-up. That should help tease out whether or not he was serious.
