Rugster Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 Imagine that plane taking Charlie down the road went down. William ascends and what kind of mourning would happen with a double dunt in two days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antlion Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 Martin Lewis was getting savaged on Twitter for daring to tweet about a means of saving on energy bills last night. The favourite line of the grief-porn wankers was “READ THE ROOM”. Someone fairly asked whether the energy companies had shut down meters for the night… 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally no end to their attempts at mind control I have to wonder if people genuinely feel moved to do all this shit or just enjoy the theatre of it and the feeling of history. Pity basketball isn't bigger in Blighty or the Heat could be in for a bonanza of Alonzo jersey sales to the gammons 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 (edited) Have to admit that having just actually seen and heard Charles' jet flying back to London first-hand, the whole thing just became that bit more 'real' for me (i.e. no longer just something on the TV). Couldn't help but think "ooft, that's the king up there ", albeit in a 'A-list celebrity in real life' type way.

Popular Post K77 Posted September 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2022 2 years of a pandemic, war in Europe, extortionate energy bills, cost of living crisis, tanking economy but haud the fucking bus some old dearie has died so lets stop everything for 2 weeks while we attempt some dystopian society of enforced mourning that would make North Korea proud. f**k this servile, forelock tugging pish. If people want to fawn over nonce harbouring, entitled weirdos that's up to you. Away and greet in your own time and let the rest of us get on with our lives. 64 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antlion Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 Interesting to see how many of the “Open everything! End this nonsense!” crowd during the pandemic are now crying, “Close everything! Show some respect!” 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im a Unionist and moderate supporter of our constitutional monarchy but this is just madness. Al that was required was a minutes silence at all games (maybe not a good idea forCeltic fans) and that would be fine by me. Looking ahead, presumably there will be a State Funeral and what will that bring? The loss of GDP must be considerable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 Tesco getting absolute pelters and facing boycotts because they had the audacity to change their FB banner to something involving blueberries/brambles rather than something queen related.

Apparently the state funeral will not be a bank holiday (as was predicted for a while). It’s likely to be on a Sunday anyway. Apart from the enforced grief porn across the mainline channels, cancellations of games and some events, and a hazy and undefined nine days of “national mourning”, nothing is really happening. Certainly, nothing positive is being given to her beloved subjects - we’re just having things taken away. It looks like the might be saving the “positive” stuff for a coronation, which will probably be mid-summer next year (to try and re-enact the jubilee and to be as far as possible from two potentially crippling winters). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to Nicholas Witchell - who granted is a complete and utter fucking moron - it will likely be a bank holiday and cannot take place on a Sunday. I mean he's already changed his tune from Charles being flown from Aberdeen to Northolt in an RAF aircraft to it being a private charter in the time it took to fly there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
