    But they seem to like the "superstition" that keeps the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha clan in gin and juice

    That's not superstition, we stopped believing that Kings got their authority from god, way, way back in 1974.

    People love the Royal Family. Lewis Hamilton was waxing lyrically about them the other day, following his Great British F1 victory.

    It's about culture, and a people's love of their Monarch, not superstition.

        I'm only commenting on the response of people like Lewis Hamilton.

        I think the Queen is hard-working and cool, but I couldn't say I love her.

          She strikes me as a rather sad old lady who would rather be waking her dogs or riding her horse.

                  Shouldn't that be schoolboy howlers, or schoolboys' howlers? Or am I being pedantic?

                    I have re-listened to the interview, and he was DEFINITELY waxing lyrically.

                      What was he waxing, though?

                      I see you have no answer.

                      (It's the hypercorrection I'm interested in.)

                        I do have an answer, but I was busy!

                        He was waxing his legs and arms. God forbid, if he had an accident, the emergency team can't be shaving him before putting plaster casts on. Every second is vital in these situations.

                          those diamond earings must be unnecessary extra weight.

                          Lewis I mean, not Beefy.

                            That actually made me laugh!

                              Is that the Lewis Hamilton that loves the Royal Family & the UK so much that he moved to Switzerland & then Monaco to avoid tax?

                                Here we go - generalising again.

                                Are you really going to vote for a party who is so stupid to have someone publicly state that Westminster Cathedral is a mosque? I think your posts have answered more than sufficiently.
