I don’t care what you say, we still do ‘ceremony’ better than the Septics, however ridiculous it looks. Ît is, however. ‘historic’ and Septics can’t do ‘historic’.

Yeah, it’s what we are all about. I love it, but I dare say that despite the history and the pomp, Her Maj would be happier writing and delivering her own opinions on such matters, but alas, that is not possible.
Oh yes! more pomp, more ceremony and, especially, but not on this occasion, more horses! (One can never have enough horses).

Sorry. Finger slipped off the ‘n’ to a ‘b’. #
It happens, Nym. I enjoyed the slip. 🙂
You put your left foot in……
Your mouth from the sound of the bloody drivel that was promulgated!
Talk about fiddling whilst Rome burns.
Who gives a tinker’s fuck about maternity leave when you are unlikely to have a job?
Who cares about the House of Lords just at the moment?
Secret courts and listening in to all and sundry?
God give me strength, is this the best that they can do?
Utter bloody contemptible claptrap, HMQ should have given herself a constitutional crisis, tore it up and given them what for. After 60 years and a good 20 years of total bullshit rubbish she should have treated herself and us to a few home truths.
This reminds me of the last gasp of the Eastern Holy Roman Empire. When the bloody ragheads were at the gate of Trabazon in N Turkey. the last Emperor, instead of defending his walls was arguing with his court about costumes and precedence. needless to say the ragheads won hands down.
I deplore the state of British politics. Democracy, as it is currently practised, is an effing disaster.
Sipu.
What has the Queen’s speech to do with democracy?
Yes, possibly but there are worse examples of supposedly democratic states.
Ara, it is not the event that I object to, it is the content of her speech and the mealymouthed individuals who wrote it for her. There is going to be a ‘European Spring’, mark my words.
I predict that despite the detractors Britain’s stock will rise and the beloved monarchy will flourish! That’s democracy – with men in skirts and girls in giggles.
Ok, lads/ Wait until she has gone by and when Wavy Davy, Millipede and Cleggover go by, trip ’em up and give ’em a good kicking!

Yes, I agree, as I said earlier, it would be so much more interesting if she wrote her own speech.
I know we disagree on the European spring, unless it be a financial meltdown which is sadly likely to happen. Rather more likely than some sudden rioting about immigration which seems somehow a preoccupation on the internet but when it comes to the crunch in election terms, a bit of a damp squib.
How could the French elect a socialist for goodness sake?
