who cares about "her majesty"??? i couldnt care less as im sure most people on this site "answerbankers" as you put it, will probably agree with me that we dont need a royal family and they should all be put to work in sewage works for a lifetime of misery- or possibly secondary school kitchens in moss side...................... now thats reality tv i would watch................
To our anti royalist friends, can someone tell me who we should have as a Head of State, ie. as President? It would be a politician who was in it for themselves (just look at this lot, Italy, France, etc), a puppet of the city. The USA, from a population of 250 million chooses its best citizen to rule them and be the head of the armed forces. Bush? Reagan? Nixon? Carter? Do me a favour. If that's the best they have, who can we find? The convicted liar and cheat Jeffrey Archer? Margaret Becket with her caravan? Very statesmanlike. Darling Tony Blair with his (alleged) money for awards scheme. Whenever this subject comes up, no one can ever give me a good reason for getting rid of the Royal Family. When the amount of money they cost is mentioned, I respond by saying that they cost us less each year than the Covent Garden Opera House and each person in Scotland is subsidised by those of us South of the Border by a greater amount than any member of the Royal Family. You can thank the Jock mafia currently ruling us (Blair, Brown, Darling, Reid) for that.
I am not an ardent royalist but, apart from it being being cool and trendy to knock tradition, I would like to know a logical reason to dispense with a system that is respected throughout the world and involves people who are trained to do their job from birth, do it well and give us a status that no president will ever attain. There is an argument about their wealth and property, which is actually ours. If this was made available to the President, you will see pictures of someone like Prescott (former waiter) playing croquest instead of looking after your interests. Or rather you wouldn't as the press would be prevented from saying anything bad about the President's friends (like in France where, at the President's funeral (Mitterand I think) the public wondered who the woman was who was his mistress as the press were prevented by law from publicising his filandering).

I'm feel sure that I have seen that picture somewhere before. Wasn't Her Majesty looking at our Deputy Prime Minister when that was taken?
To confirm that we shall toast "Here's a health unto Her Majesty" and mean it at our Christmas Dinner. The whole family do a first class job for Britain (warts and all, which make them more interesting).
