Are the Royal Family losing their touch?

I'm sure they go to bed exhausted after clearing the supper dishes ?

I'm sure they do need a bit of coaching about how to behave.
This video isn't a criticism, by the way - I love it!
It has softened my hard old heart towards them.

I'm sure not everyone was taken in by JS

Really?
I don’t recollect voting (of any sort)
Really scraping the barrel Grany

I think it was a poll of about 200 people
They were nearly all carrying Republican placards at the time, so not really representative of the country as a whole.

Actually, it is fake news and not an actual BBC report so a Republican mock-up.

Latest Ipsos poll does show support for th monarchy is declining but a majority is still in favour of retaining th institution:

Ipsos polling conducted at the end of November 2021 shows that three in five (60%) Britons favour Britain remaining a monarchy. Whilst still a majority, this has fallen from three in four (76%) in February 2016 and is the lowest level of support the monarchy has received since the question was first asked in 1993 (the previous low was 65% in 2005).

That, of course, was with the Andrew scandal front page and other negative publicity from other quarters which I shall not name!

If you feel have to tell us that the mock up about a Republican vote is fake news, then all is lost. Especially the renown British sense of irony.

Next you'll be telling us Kevin the Carrot can't really fly.

Seems the republicans can’t run an honest campaign,

My Mum wouldn't let me write to Jimmy Saville, she said she didn't like how he touched the children.

they have staff who read out to them telling them what to say and what to think.

Well of course they do.

The staff who told them it would be a good idea to ride round in the back of a land rover, just like Granny used to do.

It's not even a very good mock-up of a BBC report!
???

It mentions a poll and shows a picture of a Welsh polling station from a real election.

We all know the difference between a street or internet poll and an election Grany
Pull the other one!

They do try it on, don't they

Here we go again!

Well, if you will post things that lend themselves to being set about with garden fork....

Actually, I'm not alone being berated and ridiculed daily which is reassuring ?
We must be doing something right.

I think we all know that the monarchy retains approval at the present time in the UK. Whenever the Queen goes might be another matter, or not. Who knows, I don’t.

I blame the SNP with their republican tendencies.

Just leaving this here... ???

Don't take it personally

It's like you blaming Plaid or that nice Welsh Labour leader

I wouldn't presume.

The SNP manifesto doesn't contain any mention of being a REPUBLIC ...never has.It always had Independence as its core policy .....LABOUR had Home Rule for Scotland in its manifesto from its inception .
There is still support for the RF in a couple of areas in Scotland ,so it will be a question for another time and is NOT the reason for the Independence movment .We just want control of our own country ...like most other countries have .
Independence is NORMAL

I can understand the Paddyann

Independence is NORMAL to you paddyann. The UK is independent which is absolutely fine by me. Britain is my country. Scotland is part of that.

I thought that Scotland wants to retain the monarchy if it becomes independent.

Of course it does maddyone, you're right.

But when has the truth ever stopped people having a go?

BRITAIN isn't a country Aveline I'm sure you are aware of that ,GREAT Britain is just the island that 3 of the four nations of the UK are housed on .








Britain isn't a country Aveline as I'm sure you know ,Great Britan is just part of a group of Islands where 3 of the 4 nations o f the UK are housed .I think the FOUR NATIONS explains that, not 4 states FOUR seperate NATIONS


There is NO British nationality thats a concept that is

Sorry about the repeat ,dont know what happened

maddyone

I thought that Scotland wants to retain the monarchy if it becomes independent.

Yes, if we still have one.
