It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.

In all seriousness though I find the concept of royalty offensive and arcane. Any royalty, not just yours. How any self respecting adult can grovel and fawn at the feet of some spoiled idiot that has achieved that status through nothing more than an accident of INBREEDING is beyond me. When I see these idiots welling up as they parp on about the Queen I just feel embarrassed for them tbh. Show some fucking dignity you crawling sad sacks of shite!
Also whoever mentioned that one of them has a job? Umm... I wonder how many of his colleagues go home to a mansion/palace paid for by the tax payer?
For me any interest in royalty would be limited to historical value. So you should disband the fuckers and just let tourists tour their now empty gaffs.
Well Said Mate! ....The royal family own enough properties and land between them to solve the housing shortage at the stroke of a pen 9or should that be the fall of a guilotine!?
Besides all the other justified criticisms - They're a bunch of inbred incestuous mother feckers anyway

But not nearly as much as the C of E. They could clear the national debt in no time at all (although I still think they couldn't meet the scousers ridiculous valuation of Suarez )
Personally I don't mind the monarchy. Sure they are a burden on the taxpayer but they do draw an awful lot of tourists into the capital and in the last three years have generated a lot of income for businesses, particularly in London. I guess I'd rather have them than be a republic like the French tossers.
I sent my congratulations to the Palace this afternoon, but I did point out that George Graham and Charlie George were known as Kings of Highbury rather than Princes....
Turns out, he will be known by his middle name - Alexander, after Alex James until he is king

The aristocracy is mostly people who hustled their way into wealth and power over the years, a few worked their way up too.
Most people on here and in society would do the same thing if possible.
The argument of reporting a theft to the police smacks of hypocrisy to me. You'd all have something for free if you could, look at all the people grabbing a copy of the Metro or Evening Standard.
