Old Labour, jeez. It was easy to be a conservative in those days!

You must be a little older than me as I wasn’t old enough to vote at that time.

At last it is all over and the homeless rough sleepers - who were forced to move out of Windsor at the same time that visitors for the wedding were allowed to camp out on the streets - are allowed back.

Bloody right too; who wants to pitch camp in a pool of piss or sleep next to the mangy dog belonging to some tree-hugging pot-head with a face full of cheap ironmongery who's never paid a £ of tax in his misbegotten life.

Or, and in all seriousness, grow up you whinging non-UK dwelling berk.

Typical 'I'm all right ,Jack' Tory view of homeless people.
The reality is somewhat different.
'Around one in three of the people bedding down here are in work. The night I went, the charity’s co-founder, Sheila Scott, looked down the list of guests and identified their employers. It was a roll call of Britain’s consumer economy: Starbucks, Eat, Pret. A woman who travelled three hours to work at a Co-op grocery. Pubs, McDonald’s, a courier for Deliveroo.'

I got an invitation but turned it down. I told them my grass was growing and I did not want to miss a second of it.

She is a symbol only, has nothing to do with our laws or making of them.

Exactly what does it have to do with the 42.8 million price tag on the Royal wedding?

Pardon my asumption. You must have been a Tory boy at school; a product of your parents upbringing no doubt.

Same in the UK...

She's a symbol of stability, dignity, grace, dedication and tireless service. At 92, she is still doing her duty every single day. She has been serving us since she worked as a truck mechanic and driver in the dark days of the 1940's.

What exactly do you have against her?

Where did you have the impression I had anything against her?

What did I say that led you to believe I had anything against the queen?

The fact that you have written multiple posts with the typical republican sentiments.

Go with FACTS not what you personally THINK!!!

Point out a line that I indicated I had anything against the Queen!

The multiple posts were more about the cost of the wedding !!!
