mjmooney Posted July 22, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted July 22, 2013 (edited) Any clearing in the woods who gets excited about the latest in a long line of lucky gob shites who are fortunate enough to be born into the royal family. There was a "Review the papers" bit on one of the R4 weekend programmes, and some American-born woman journalist quoted an old lady who had been interviewed and said something like: "I'm not remotely interested, it's just a baby; millions of people have babies every day, it's no big deal". The journo then said: "Well, all I can say is that she must be the only person in the country who feels that way!!!" What world do these people live in?

djamfisher Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 The monarchy I don't so much mind, it's the press's reaction to every little thing they do that's i find annoying, and quite embarrassing. The anecdote aove (the american journo) is just typical, and shows just how ignorant and/or misleading the press are when reporting stories on them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted July 22, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted July 22, 2013 When did it stop being the case that you can become King by killing the exisiting monarch? I think they plugged that loophole. As far as I know though, you can still invite the Dutch to invade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefanAVFC Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I'm fairly apathetic towards the royal family. They have their pros and cons. The hysteria relating to weddings, births etc is hilarious though. It doesn't piss me off, I just laugh it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
