I’m no royalist, and I thought that some of Trump’s meandering rants were a tad off the wall, but I can see that you’re going all out for the star prize with that sack of over the top merde.
The Queen somehow caused Aberfan? gimme a break

Source please?
Oh i don't know, you've been here long enough to know the shortlist.
Yeah this seems to be the next big threat to colonies is buying up cheap loans from China to invest heavily in infra projects, and then finding out they don't have the means to pay for it, and China then say they now own large parts of critical infra in your country.
Could certainly be sigworthy.
But hey, no reason to wait until then
It's been quite heavily covered in the media in the last couple of weeks. IIRC i think head of MI6 has come out to say China is now the biggest threat and this is one of the biggest reasons why.
Exactly, these people only see one side of the story.

Ok, now then, I would like you to show me on this doll where Prince Andrew touched you.
OP: here... here... and here.

Really the Queen has been in charge of all the disasters?
Odd I was of the impression that in the UK the Monarch was mainly a figurehead, all those disasters were down to the policies and actions of the elected officials who don't actually require the Queens consent to really mess things up.

Good luck to them I say - I have no sway for or against it tbh; though I am baffled by the mention of getting slavery reparations for plantations 100s of years ago…
Fully expect to see them cap in hand soon enough.

I've been to Barbados and Florida. I prefer Barbados as there are less yanks. More to do in Florida but if lying around on beautiful beached drinking rum and smoking weed are your thing then Barbados is hard to beat.

I see a slavery museum is now planned to be constructed, which definitely couldn't have happened with the queen as head of state??
It does appear that Barbados are joining the OP in becoming full-on Guardian readers.

I probably should have marked my comment with a sarcasm tag. The original post was utter

Suckling from China's teat already. Another hole forever in debt to the Communist party's infrastructure "help"
The timeless classic variation of, "slaves benefitted from being taught English".
Not everyone on the forum is the typical right wing pro monarchist. She has been a odious blight on preserving awful institutions like the Church of England against the interests of the British people. And failing to do the most basic to safeguard the rights of minorities by giving royal assent to racist and homophobic laws, it's hard to think of a single individual who has caused to much harm to the liberty of the common person.
Clearly ignorant of history like where she just didn't bother to turn up for over a week deciding instead that her lunch engagements were more important.
You mean other than being official head of the UK armed forces and failing to condemn the invasion, in effect all but giving it her blessing?
Yeah, despite mocking her as an attention seeking **** on this very forum, that must be my where my sympathies lie.
Guess you've never heard the phrase "two things can be true".
Precisely, the country was already independent and has just decided to become a republic getting rid of their monarchy, basically more of a case of sticking two fingers up to the royals than deciding to impose a communist dictatorship...
Basically, the forum has always been very right wing and conservative on the whole, regular anti immigration threads, pro capital punishment, pro protectionism, pro monarchy, deeply racist founder etc.
