The Prince of Wales

[Husar]

In fact, Charles is always right. He is just too far ahead of his time

So you think Tribesman is actually prince Charles?

Duh! Tribesman is obviously a royalist and a loyalist.

I've luffed the guy since he admitted to schoolboy Tobacco use, and elsewhere (I can't so far find a link) defended cigarette use among the poor, as 'their only pleasure' or words to that effect.

p.s. Note to poll-makers: Making a poll, and not voting in it oneself might be miscontrued.

I would vote, but I'd have to click all five options, making it rather moot.


I actually suspect Charles - and I find this shocking and hard to admit - I suspect Charles of having a sense of humour.

Those letters to Camilla! 'I wish I were your Tampax'. Genius.

Another old joke beckons but this time I'll give you the punchline and let you work out the preamble.

'Uptight, outta sight, in a groove...'

Have you heard about the religious conservative with a taste for disco?

[Cute Wolf]

Although not a Brit... I could tell he was basically a good guy when I meet and shake his hand on his tour of duty to Indonesia... Everybody could made mistakes, just try to give him a second chance to approve himself...

Hey frag... a man who can't have a decent ammount honor his own leader, no matter what they did as "wrong things" can't become a good leader themself.... and yet.... ashaming your own royal family is a symbol of disloyalty..... Poor Royal family... not everyone understands them... and many depises them...

[Louis VI the Fat]

Now I get it.


Like Baldrick, I should go to Jamaica and become a limbo dancer - everything goes over my head.

Bah. It's not just the man, it's the very institution itself.

Monarchy makes a mockery of our democratic system and values. We teach that everyone is born equal in standing. We elect our leaders and our representatives. Our society is based on the notion that the hard-working and smart people end up at the top, and noone will get far without hard work.

A king is born into his position. He has no need for any qualification whatsoever, from the moment he is born, he is chosen to be king. It really is shameful for our society to behave in this way.

Any kind of government is originally intended for the good on its own people... even those "undemocratic monarch" that you've seen is actually someone who his ancestors were "elected" to made his lineage leaders for (hopefully) countless generations. At least, they should have some sense of duty, and your "real decision - maker" is the Prime Minister, who was elected, right? so denying monarchy rights of their title and institution, is basically the same thing when you rob a rich, but innocent man, all his riches, and then let him die nude in cold slums... If they still stand, it was because God still wants them to a good efffects... And to say they are useless, you just prove of your "disloyalty"...

To be honest, I think democracy itself has a pretty good track record of making a mockery of its own institutions.

And democracy can teach and preach whatever they want but the fact is not everyone is born equal - although I suppose the difference these days is genetic and economic rather than aristocratic.

In fairness if I could pick a head of government, I'd take Charles over Brown or Zapatero or Berlusconi, or even Merkel. He's highly educated, patriotic, has some kind of values, and he won't be grubbing money off the public coffers because he's only in power for 4-8 years.

Because he had big ears?


Go on then! Give us the joke, lad!
