After all if you can't criticise them....
 
If the royals ceased to exist, what difference would it make to your life? Would it make you less bitter? Who would your next target be for your resentment and possible jealousy, in the event of us becoming a republic?

Sounds like the ranting of n'er-do-well lefties, always ranting on about 'THATCHER', as if she was responsible for their shortcomings.
 
If the lefty republicans got their way then they could simply transfer their grumbles and complaints to the tax RISES which would result from getting rid of a monarchy which contributes hundreds of times more to the UK economy than it costs the taxpayers.

It would remove a symbol of elitism that is the bane of this country...

If the top head rolls, who knows what else could change...

I just happen to think that I will bow down to no-one, and no-one has any right to be considered better (or worse) than me...

And I resent paying for their luxury lifestyle in the same way as most people resent MP's expenses or bankers bonuses...

As a post in the removed/censored topic pointed out, that is not the case...

And what could you do if you disapproved of an elected head of state that you couldn't with an hereditary one?

How are they the bane of this country? They have no real power. Apart from socialist, republican resenment, how can you justify your statement? Blair and his mob did more damage to the UK in 13 years than the last 130 years of our monarchy, which is admired throughout the world.

Very outdated. Don't think that not bowing down is a treasonable offence these days.
 
Criticism is one thing, abusive, hateful and insulting comments is another. I'd have ellal bow down alright, then i'd connect with a size 10 hobnail boot. :wink:

So expressing one's opinion is bad, but violence is ok? Shame on you, that is a disgraceful post, even with the contemptious smiley.
 
When i was a kid, i had many a kick up the butt. Violence??? Don't be such a silly Chappy Chapeau. :D ,,,,,, ohh, and this is how to spell "Contemptuous",,,,, correctly. :D :D :D

Capitalise the 'I'
Don't run all those commas together.
A sentence needs a verb and a noun.
Don't run all those '?' together
Sentences begin with capital letter
Comma in incorrect place.
Oh is spelled, well, Oh.

Or is that spelt :) :)

Oh how I love it when the spelling police make a complete plum of themselves by getting it totally wrong themselves.

If I was going to be a pretentious nob end correcting innocent spelling mistakes made on smartphones I'd never get any kip.

What a fool.

You are talking sh'ite.

All political systems have a ruling elite, and you would just swap one for another.

Not forgetting that our current "symbol of elitism" is admired by many foreign countries

So what was that about abusive and hateful?...

The difference between you and me is that I don't go running to the mods when I see a post I disagree with...

I'd swap an unaccountable one for an electable one...

And if you think many foreign countries still admire us, then you must be stuck in a different century!

Ask yourself this..

How many times do you have to 'swear allegiance' just to join everyday groups?

How many politicians would be allowed to enter parliament without an oath?

How many civil servants (police included) would not be able to take up office it they refused to swear that 'allegiance'?

I suggest you acquaint yourself with the terms of common law before you utter your b*llshit!
