And Diana's brother is such a fine example of Noblesse Oblige.  I don't think.  I would happily see him stripped of his lands and title.
Perhaps we could have a Referendum on who should go and who should stay.

I'm all for guillotines. If there was a referendum I think there's one man who might top the list.

I also have no strong views either way. Sometimes I seem to end up supporting a position in a debate due to the strong views of others. I was trying to work out if Harry's going bald yet.  8(>((

I didn't notice any bald patches but he is currently sporting a beard, red at that &%+((£
Just my opinion of course but Jeremy Bamber is innocent and a couple from UK, unknown to T9, abducted Madeleine McCann - motive unknown.  Was J J murdered as a result of identifying as a goth?

How quaint. We could let the aristocracy have free rein too - like Lord Glasgow and the waiter!
I had to google that. 

I do hope you know my previous comment was a little tongue in cheek....?  That said, I do find the idea of a progressive "down-with-the-people" monarchy less appealing than one that sits in its lofty castle, wearing a crown whilst soldiers in scarlet tunics march about "changing the guard" importantly.

You should run away and join ISIS, maybe teach them a thing or two about the latest head-removing technology. 8)--))

tell me more.

I don't think anyone in the UK should be expected to work for less than an hourly rate equivalent to a 'living wage'.  Just looked it up and was surprised how low it is.  The average income is circa 26k per annum.

They're intertwined I said, and they are. There's a multitude of relics of absolute monarchy still around, and people say 'oh, it's just ceremonial' or 'oh, it's just a formality', but in some cases it isn't.

Has Osborne promised to raise the living wage/minimum wage to £9 by 2020? (I don't know exactly what he said in the budget.) But he'll have slashed tax credits by then and some employers are going to say we can't afford to pay the new rates. Big conflicts ahead.
