But they don’t have any power and don’t align themselves with a political position. How have they made any decisions in your lifetime that have impacted you? If you spoke to the numerous charities and businesses / employees of tourism that benefit from the royal family they would highlight the positive benefit. As a whole the country wants to keep the monarchy based on polls. If there was a democratic vote on this it’s highly likely people would vote to keep it

How about they're undemocratic? The idea that you can be born into the role of head of state regardless of ability or talent is laughable. The Andrew that you describe as a complete idiot and an embarrassment was once second in line to the throne and could easily have ended up as King.

Bloody hell, it's a joke. Get yourself a sense of humour you boring oik.

🤣 Says the forums biggest know all, know nothing 🤡

They are off again, the self proclaimed know it all and his lackey, Mickey. Stick to the thread about Andrew chaps.

Valletta, Krakow, Salzburg, Innsbruck, Palma, Dubrovnik

Look at all all the various KO times & they wonder why the FA Cup has lost it's magic!

bollocks. Was hoping for an evening game, maybe a beer or two beforehand. Always better under lights.

We often like to add an extra night to any city break so we can do a day trip somewhere by train. Have been really impressed by the Italian train system.

It could've been worse... (Well,for me anyway )

Sunday, live on TNT. Absolutely shite.

It's certainly not for "services to Economics".

Services to comedy financial understanding

Agree with this. For all of the flak he’s had in the past, the affair (which most of them have done) and some of his whackier views on medicines, he’s handling this situation rather well and he does say a lot of things I agree with. I suspect they’ve all got fed up with Andrew being indulged and since the Queen and Prince Philip have passéd on (not implying they covered anything up btw) more has seemed to consistently emerge, although the lid was rattling after the Matlis car crash of an interview in 2019. That’s when I sensed public opinion really turned. Harry probably unwittingly provided some air cover as well before his grandparents passed on with the headlines on the family exit. Police won’t be revealing where he’s held and any tabloid that tries I’d imagine won’t be printing copies for some time.

For services to this Forum in providing an alternative perspective

I have visited Berlin a lot in the past through work and there is one abiding memory - it's so fucking cold in Winter.

Another f**king lunchtime KO 😡

What did you have to do to get your knighthood?

*cannot*

Cause they don’t generate any value to our country, support good causes or encourage tourism do they? Talk about throwing the baby out with the bath water. The Royal Family is one of the reasons that the UK is best known across the globe. Having lived abroad there is huge interest and respect for them and the heritage of the royal family. Having said this Andrew is clearly a complete idiot and an embarrassment

Ha!! They're the ones I've tried post walk out. I've blocked out the shite I've seen in them over the years. The kit surfing sounds impressive though.

Good shout, the wife wants to do that, Xmas market.

We like Vienna.
