Well... not the first time.
What kind of bootlicking brainworms do limeys have that it’s been >50% ’till now?
Britain is very politically authoritarian and having a single hierarchy has been their preference for a thousand years. They also have a surveillance state to rival any other authoritarian government and a press that is strongly discouraged from rocking the boat. Those poor Islanders are used to thinking like sheep because it's how they were raised.
Interesting. What's the US's excuse for Trump?
The most foundational concept to America is economic exploitation and cut throat entrepreneurship. Selfishness is more foundational to American conservatives than the church or the state. Trump was openly a selfish asshole. One would think that open disregard for others would disqualify someone from the highest elected office, but the right thought otherwise. Being a bully meant that Trump was strong. A lack of empathy isn't a vice, but a virtue.
As trite as it is to point out, that he was going up against an infamous neoliberal. Repuglicans don't win elections, their opponents lose.
On a cold winter’s eve at Piccadilly Circus I got felt up & shook down by bobbies on the most ridiculous pretext. I don’t know if they had a drug bust quota to meet or were simply bored.
Sometimes people are just born better than you. Wadderyagonna do? 🤦🏿♂️
i've been told that people wanted to fuck the queen.
Anybody who supports these freeloading dickheads is an idiot.
I wonder whether that’s entirely due to the population becoming more progressive, or whether there’s a population of Daily Mail-reading gammon who don’t like Charles because he’s “too woke” (i.e. saying things about the environment and such)
This, he's also really pissed the unionist lunatics off in northern Ireland by laughing in the face of their leader with the leader of Sein Fein. Poor Jeffrey was so excited that day too...
But will this lead to anything?
It is said, their teeth had straightened out every so slightly on that day.
Good news, fingers crossed it continues to plummet.
I'm Canadian (yeah, a colony) and I despice monarchy, they are completely out of touch
Bunch of blundering buffoons with no idea how regular people go through their lives
Just imagine what their monarchy must be like, then.
There has been speculation for a long time that after Elizabeth died, that she might be the end of the monarchy. Obviously, that wouldn't be immediate, but Charles is not as well liked and given his age, is never going to be a long ruler offering the stability and nostalgia that she does.
The concept of a small segment of people being better is antithetical to modern values, so it was only a matter of time.
I don't think it will be immediate, especially given the turmoil of change around brexit and covid. Some stability will be desired, but there will be a constant slow drip loss of support until it's abolished or radically diminished.
They could get it back by passing on the crown to William.
