For those who didn’t know / didn’t care.

On the 9th September Her Royal Highness becomes the longest serving monarch is British history!

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not big on the Royal stuff (well I actually detest it) however, I’m big on witnessing defining events in my lifetime. The Moon landing etc., etc. but when Lizzie beats the record I’ll raise a glass.

I believe there’s not going to be a big fuss made of it, but I think it comes higher than whatever that river pageant was all about.

I just hope a I raise a toast, that she’s doing the same with her crown on, singing Campione, Campione…

As the great Sir Francis Urquhart said (in that episode when you realise there are worse monsters in life than Urquhart):

[i"Not at all, sir. Don't you understand what I'm telling you? I have no wish to. It is you I want to destroy, not the Monarchy. My family came south with James I. We were defenders of the English throne before your family was ever heard of. It is to preserve the ideal of a constitutional monarchy that I now demand your abdication."[/i

Benefits scroungers the lot of them, living off the state, with housing provided, breeding like rabbits, and from illegal immigrants. Take everything and give nothing.

That about sums it up doesn't it?

Ah but what about all the money they generate from tourism we keeping getting told about?

As long as the monarch doesn't embarrass the nation or interfere in any way in politics then, despite ideologically being opposed to a monarchy, I think the one we currently have works very well.

it should be ....
doff the cap, you pleb!

Just think how high profile Rugby League could now be if Jamie Jones Buchanan had married one of Her Majesty's grand daughters. The other code hasn't looked back since Tindall got in there. Another opportunity missed by RL? I blame the RFL and Nigel Woods.

Naw , it's Silverwoods fault all the way

Remarkable achievement - God Save The Queen

Which "God" and which queen?

and what's so remarkable about being a benefits scrounger for so long?

That IDS hasn't assessed her for a fortune in "bedroom tax" - must have hundreds of spare ones around this sceptre isle.

For some reason I used to respect the royal family. Now I realise they are a bunch of Reptilians with dubious morals. Obviously they are handy for the economy with all the tourists who come here to see all things Windsor but is it really worth living under their oppressive, exploitative regime?
