  1. Hopefully you didn’t waste your money on a return ticket? Oh sorry, misread that as Dignitas. I’m really not fussed if we keep them or not, but they are certainly an anachronism and need to be slimmed down and modernised. The likes of Andrew and Fergie have done nothing but drag the image down (except to provide the country with even more Royal baggage with the two ugly sisters). The Windsors have long been one of the most dysfunctional families in the country. We could do them a favour by realising all of the hangers on back into normal lives and just keep two to do the head of state stuff. By the way Ralph, it’s the Oldies who would vote to keep them. Most of the youngsters don’t want them.
  2. There is a difference in making a poor point and making a poor joke. You don’t have a sense of humour. As Barry Humphries once said, “If you can’t laugh at yourself you might be missing the joke of the century.”
  3. They could still come and see all of that stuff without a Royal Family couldn’t they? Open up Royal Palaces as hotels and maybe we’d get more visitors? I once stayed in a pub which did b & b (the Royal Oak near Rye) and we were served breakfast by Sophie’s brother (Prince Edward’s wife). Imagine the pull for tourism if you could have them wait on you!
  4. And you have no sense of humour.
  5. I wasn’t bothered about going to Venice until we actually went there and loved it. I’d also endorse the vote for Florence. Nearer home Bruges and Amsterdam were enjoyable trips. Dublin for the craic and the Guinness.
  6. I love the idea that we would have less tourism without the Royal Family. I can just imagine people planning their next foreign trip based on the possibility of having tea with Charles and Camilla. As for voting to keep them, we voted to leave the EU and live to regret it. If we were to have a vote to keep them, why not have a vote every five years to elect a Royal Family?
  7. I still can’t get my head around it when they refer to her as the Queen.
  8. Former “spare” and well known sex pest, Andrew, has been arrested. Not before time.
  9. Careful Whitey. You are slipping into MLG mode there. 😉
  10. Says the man famous for his Nazi salute! https://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/2172741/elon-musk-nigel-farage-reform-uk-nazi-row/amp
  11. Tom Cruise. Apart from the whole Scientology thing, despite being short he has an ego the size of a planet. Jim Carrey. I don’t get the whole gurning thing. Just stop it. James Corden. Ok, not an actual film star, but he has made films. Has that air of the irritating kid at school that you just wanted to slap. Tom Hiddleston. Are you going to milk that dance routine forever?

    Russia

    Yet Trump insists that Ukraine is dragging its heals over a peace deal.
  13. God knows what is going on but I have had a flood of Jenrick, Braverman and Reform crap on my social media feeds today. They must have my algorithms mixed up with some other posters on here 😩 7 councillors from KCC who were booted out of or left Reform have now joined up with Lowe’s party. We now have 3 types of Tory to pick from in Kent and none of them remotely close to centre right. Happy days.
  14. Absolutely. The lack of self awareness by everyone in Trump’s administration is staggering. Given that he and the rest of Trump’s cronies are actively dismantling democracy in the US and turning it into Trump’s own banana republic is not lost on most of the rest of the world.
