Definitely not a Betty Windsor thread (2 Viewers)

[flashback]

What about Canada? Do they still sing God Save the Quing?

Fair question. National treasures like Jim Lahey and they're probably pissing away all that good coin real estate on them lads.

I had to do a minutes silence yesterday, in my sporty job (I knew they wouldn't last a full ten days without footy balls). it was the most aggressively enforced raucous and frankly loudest minutes silence I've ever experienced. "Oi! shut up you cunt! It's a minutes silence you wanker!".

And I've experienced minutes' silences in Croker.

Then I had to do another one today. It was a good cigarette break actually. Then loads of police chaperoned buses came by. The police helicopters weren't silent. Apparently the buses were full of princes and emporers and that. All I know is that they were in my way. VERY strange buzz around the place here.

Would they not be better off preserving her, tastefully setting up those animatronic jobbies that move her hands and head about, and rolling the whole thing into a Very Spooky Windsor Halloween special?

Like, the ticket sales for that thing alone would be outstanding.

They could do a callback to it on the Christmas Speech Special too.

back in the day they'd have chopped her up into 100 pieces and send them off to different parts of the commonwealth stratosphere so her loyal subjects could go and pay homage to the little toe on her left foot.

we've gone soft. Ollie Plunkett's head would turn in its glass box if he knew.

Who’s this Irish lad doing the voiceover on bbc news? He’d want a good hard look at himself

Be gas craic if Putin launched a nuke now and load of aides had to get notes passed to Biden/Truss etc.

"Excuse me Prince Charles. Sorry. SORRY. My bad, King Charles. Could you give Biden a tap on the shoulder there?"

Just learned that Australia and NZ still has pics of Betty W on their coins.

Saps.

They're all royalists in NZ, was not something I expected. The Queen's/Kings Birthday is a public holiday there and all.

How Maori remember the Queen

Elizabeth II has a complex legacy in New Zealand, where Maori say she tried to right historical wrongs.

Didn't know that street pastors were a thing.

In any case they have no authority and this one has assaulted the protestor and then blamed the protestor for her own ignorance.
