It is obvious to even the surliest and most hidebound that you cannot have read anything of this thread or the international news recently apart from the headline and as such I wonder what made you comment. It is probably best that you go back into the cave you inhabit and remain a recluse for the benefit of Her Majesty (of the UK etc. etc in case you have not worked it out yet!) and the rest of this forum. PS; If you were trying to be sarcastic and not just a troll I suggest the addition of an emoji next time! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you donating any of your income to the quote " poor in places such as Luton, Preston, Manchester etc etc whom are more concerned as to how they were going to pay for food for their kids rather than a glorified pi*****p for those borne with a silver spoon in their mouths"? From the bits and pieces that I have seen have spent their own time and money to having a great time both up in London, Cardiff, Edinborough, Belfast and the many thousands of street parties for children all over the UK. It happens once every 70 years that a monarch is on the throne and this is the first one in the world. I know that there will never be another one in my lifetime (I am 78) and I am not sure if many people in the world will be alive to see another. "this is the first one in the world" HM is currently the third longest reigning monarch in history. In 6 days, if she survives that long, she will have taken second place from King Bhumibol. Number one at the moment is Louis XIV of France, at 72 years and 110 days. Monarchs of states that were "not internationally sovereign for most of their reign": No 1 is King Sobhuza II of Swaziland, at 82 years 254 days. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_longest-reigning_monarchs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sobhuza_II Edited June 7, 2022 by Enoon 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People from all walks of life and varying social backgrounds were seen to be celebrating Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee in the UK. People from housing estates in some of the UK’s poorest areas were at the forefront of those celebrations, funding their own parties as best they could. You seem to be a rather miserable and mean spirited human being …. my condolences to you. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, and it´s a reason for that. It´s called common sense. No. It’s called Minor Insignificant Royal Families. ???????? Many reasons why UK is the coolest most admired most influential most achieving country in history. Queen just one of hundreds of those “ reasons to be cheerful” with UK ???????? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
