Louis the pedo one, yes. Not Ivar the one who found it amusing that 50 year old Philip found Ivar's teenage daughters attractive and inquisitively probed them. Odd bunchHis mentor was Mountbatten right?

If they block netflix I'm taking them to court. I plan on wall-to-wall comedy for a month. I'm gonna post a joke on the hour, every hour from 9-9pm on social mediaCheck my link the plan is all there no comedy allowed until a few weeks after etc.
'London Bridge is down': the secret plan for the days after the Queen’s death
The long read: She is venerated around the world. She has outlasted 12 US presidents. She stands for stability and order. But her kingdom is in turmoil, and her subjects are in denial that her reign will ever end. That’s why the palace has a plan.www.theguardian.com
Nope, not ex-forces but have a strong sense of national identity that you appear to lack.some people have just been rendered docile through years of systematic rhetoric. Wouldn't be surprised if Holgate_roof was ex-forces, it's rife cop doffers in that world. Why anyone would sign up to lay their life down for that family, I don't know.

Love it......but no, only right on the working class bit.Let me guess. You 'read' The Sun, watch Jim Davidson on loop on Forces TV and would overthrow the government if the queen told you to. Yet you probably grew up in a working class setting. Am I close?
I’m not grieving. You are entirely able to choose to join in or not. My tv has an off button as does yours. I haven’t paid it much attention beyond the original news.it's not a lot to ask to be allowed to choose if we join in with this show of virtue signalling, or if we are allowed to get on with our lives as normal. By taking over our national broadcaster and moving sporting events because they clash with his funeral that choice is taken away.
If you want to grieve over some guy that lived a a life of luxury at our expense fill your boots, but let the normal folks carry on as normal with our football at 3pm
I am curious the_holgate_roof. What exactly is national identity?Nope, not ex-forces but have a strong sense of national identity that you appear to lack.
what bile have I spouted...I’m not grieving. You are entirely able to choose to join in or not. My tv has an off button as does yours. I haven’t paid it much attention beyond the original news. However, When someone dies it is, in my book, better to simply stay quiet if you only have bile to spout. Whether you are a monarchist or republican is of little consequence really, it’s just common decency. If anything, spouting bile only shows the spouter up. If it is done in the name of republicanism then it does your argument for that no favours whatsoever as it shows you up to be intolerant and bigoted, and does not engender respect for your cause. The bloke may have had privilege, but he did plenty of work for good causes over many years. As said, monarchist or republican, respect costs nothing.
the use of you and your is metaphorical and does not pertain to you as an individual.
ultimately, people are free to view it as the see fit, I just think it shows themselves in a poor light if they can’t be respectful of a death of anyone.
I have a strong sense of national identity. I'm proud of lots of things my fellow countrymen/women have achieved. We have great artists like Hockney, Constable, Emin and Banksy, great musicians likeHarvey, Lennon and Yorke, engineers like Brunell, scientists like Hawking, Lovelace and Darwin, sportmen like Mansell, Moore, and Lewis. We are a country of artists, musicians, scientists, inventors and sportsmen. That is something to be proud of, certainly more than an old woman in a gold hat who inherited money from the subjugation of foreign lands. CheersNope, not ex-forces but have a strong sense of national identity that you appear to lack.
The bit where i wrote “the use of you and your....etc” is critical to understanding that I was not directly speaking about you as a specific individualwhat bile have I spouted...
Your hatred for the Queen and Prince Philip as people is illogical and seems very unhealthy for you, it is like you are directing your socialist and political views at them personally, which is I am sure will agree is ridiculous when you reflect.I have a strong sense of national identity.

well the "you" bit was directly at me, so what bile did I post? Or is that an admittance that I didn't post bile?The bit where i wrote “the use of you and your....etc” is critical to understanding that I was not directly speaking about you as a specific individual
I'm a centrist, don't project your hatred of the left on me.Your hatred for the Queen and Prince Philip as people is illogical and seems very unhealthy for you, it is like you are directing your socialist and political views at them personally, which is I am sure will agree is ridiculous when you reflect.
No the general post wasn’t aimed directly at you, hence the rider.well the "you" bit was directly at me, so what bile did I post? Or is that an admittance that I didn't post bile?
I will, if the the weather is good I'll sit in my garden with some non-somber music playing, and a cold draft beer.granted the bit about TVs having an off button could be advice you could take directly.
And that would be fair enoughI will, if the the weather is good I'll sit in my garden with some non-somber music playing, and a cold draft beer.
I will behave myself at the U15s footy match and twiddle my thumbs during the minute silence while reminiscing his most hateful 'gaffs'
