JulieB Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 somebody on the radio just announced that 'anybody' managing to do 60 years in the same job should be celebrated made me laugh, fair play Hat's off to her in a way though because in all those 60 years... One has never put a royal foot out of line. (Unlike the rest of her family!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekka Posted June 3, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted June 3, 2012 FWIW I found the CNN footage absolutely hilarious...even if they did go to ad breaks every five minutes. Piers Morgan in being somebody quite comical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted June 3, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted June 3, 2012 because they've been ruled for 60 years, only stopping themselves grasping their forelocks Other than in name has she really ruled Over us though ? The royal family is more a symbol now.. the days of having you head on a spike for not doffing your cap or backing the wrong religion are long gone Not as directly as they might have done in the past but the very nature of the role dictates that she reigns over us. Which is a principle I find hard to swallow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
