Harry complaining about racist press last year with his new bird when he's the plonker who referred to his '**** friend'.

It must be hard for the Royals to adjust to the new racial etiquette, It's not long ago their class were still using them as target practice.

I'm definitely republican in regards to the royals, but also don't really see any urgency with 'doing away with them either'. I'd like to see them phased out, kind of in the way other European countries have done with their royalty. But its not a big issue in the grand scheme of things. Just an anachronism.

I think we rather like the link to the past and all the historical highlights. Britain has been good at that sort of thing. Never mind that it represents everything we reject in the modern world.

The problem is we have the worst of all worlds- paying through the nose for monarchs who have no actual power, and merely serve a ceremonial role.

This is exactly how I feel. If there was a referendum tomorrow I’d definitely vote to get rid, but I’m in no rush, there are a lot more important things to care about.

Thing is, getting rid of them would make no difference to us and if they sold their land, it would probably be bought by an Arab. At least British land is in British (German) hands.

Try looking in the main Royal marriage thread before whingeing about censorship I think you missed my point on the deleted thread midland, i sincerely hope youre not the mod in question, the point wasnt a royal wedding congratulations point, it was about the most powerful lady in the country at present ,arlene foster, who claims to be a royalist, not realising that william is already married to kate, and thus shouldnt be the most powerful lady in the land ! Thats the third post on the topic just because you didnt seem to understand my point, apologies to everyone for repeating myself but if a censor is deleting threads because he hasnt understood them then maybe said censor should be given a yellow by his boss?
