Shotgun Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 You can guarantee there will be enough for the media to find a couple to film so they can pretend it’s a representation of the whole nation. If this was in a novel it would either be a dystopian sci-fi nightmare or a comic portrayal of a tinpot dictatorship. FFS. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Naitch Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Glad I'm going to be on a train while all this coronation pish is going on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tongue_tied_danny Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 (edited) I've got the Monday off, which is a good thing. I couldn't care less about the coronation. I'll just spend next Sunday drinking Tennents lager before I pish in my sock drawer then crash out.

Hopefully they record it and send the video to Buck House. The new King will definitely care and want to know who he can rely on in an emergency. There was an invitation to a street party shoved through the door. I wish I'd replied "Sorry, can't make it. My diary says I'm having a w@nk that day" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She seems the type to get the Union flags out. It did occur that there might be some overlap with the "bang pots and pans (but no wage rises) for the NHS" crew here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Mark Connolly Posted April 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 30, 2023 The warning before the Frankie Boyle programme on C4 tonight - "This programme may contain views on the monarchy which some find offensive". They should be broadcasting that message before any pro-monarchy programme as well then 25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirty dingus Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 The only way I'd watch this shit live is if it became one of they rolling news live terrorist attacks.

The gammon who lives directly across the street is never one to miss an opportunity to make everything all about him.

During lockdown, he was out his front door like a cheetah on roller-skates at 8pm every Thursday to be the first one standing there applauding fresh air. An absolute nap to be howling compliance, and, more importantly, to be seen howling compliance, through a megaphone in his garden this coming Saturday ala Jimmy Hart. He's started low-key on this nonsense, I'll give him that. Yesterday the red, white and blue wreath went up on his front door, with a couple of mini-Union Jack flags tastelessly adorning it but this is all there is so far. There will be more, much more. I was thinking of opening the windows and putting Conflict (as opposed to the heating) on at full-blast should he appear in his garden to do his Trashcan Man impersonation but it doesn't seem devious enough, bit too simplistic.
