7. Author: jake89 Date: Wed 6th Nov 2024. 18:42 I`ve never understood the Royals. So centuries ago some guy decided he had loads of power and was "King" of the land and then someone brought religion into and acted like he had been selected by God, and conveniently enough his bloodline would be preselected to take over upon his death. It`s 2024 and people are singing about an unelected leader who repeatedly cheated on his wife and has an alleged paedophile for a brother. How the hell are people still accepting this nonsense?

9. Author: Paralex Date: Wed 6th Nov 2024. 20:26 I`m no royalist but citing Russia as a good example of getting rid of their monarchy is a wee bit hard to swallow. Who did they get instead? Lenin, Stalin and now Putin. Don`t look at him in the wrong way or you`re sampling Novichok with your corn flakes. Post Edited (Wed 06 Nov 20:29) Reply |
10. Author: NMCmassive Date: Wed 6th Nov 2024. 22:37 There’s only one family that publicly links the two major pedophile people traffickers on both sides of the Atlantic. Good friends with both men ffs… I’d happily vote for a republic today COYP Reply |

Maybe Parboiled can explain it to us mere mortals. I am sure he sings the praises of the unelected money laundering greedy thieving individual that is Sovereign of England at every opportunity.

12. Author: Parboiled Date: Thu 7th Nov 2024. 08:07 Sorry to disappoint you but I cannae sing to save myself never mind God save the King....my Missus is even worse, she swears she was in the school choir but when she hits the high notes dogs howl and cats disappear for weeks Reply |
13. Author: jake89 Date: Thu 7th Nov 2024. 08:45 Parboiled is more Parody tbh. Obviously at it along with Bletchley Par. Definitely live alone or in their mum`s spare room. Reply |
14. Author: buffy Date: Thu 7th Nov 2024. 08:47 My brother said my singing sounds like a goose farting in a spacesuit. I think your other half and I should enter BGT, Parboiled! 🤪 ”Buffy’s Buns are the finest in Fife”, J. Spence 2019” Reply |
15. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Thu 7th Nov 2024. 08:50 Parboiled and BP are our resident Unionist boot lickers so you wont hear them say a bad word about the royals. As stated above they would rather blame the Labour party than King Charlie. Reply |

18. Author: veteraneastender Date: Thu 7th Nov 2024. 10:50 desparado, Wed 6 Nov 16:37 It’s a ROYAL anthem, not a “national” one - where else is the NA focused on the unelected head of state - not even North Korea or Iran I suspect. Time it was ditched, long since. Reply |
19. Author: Paralex Date: Thu 7th Nov 2024. 14:48 The human race is greatly skilled in tyranny, no matter what the political regime may be. After the Russian and French Revolutions, the UK gained much greater freedom through the non conformist religious movements, including Methodists and Baptists and our radical politicians, poets etc. We didn`t go down the violent, revolutionary road and some say that`s just as well because we were spared the excesses of Robespiere, Lenin etc. Before that, why did the Cromwellian revolution fail? Because the mass of the population favoured a monarchy rather than a Puritan autocracy. Be careful what you wish for. But at the end we will all be subject to the King of Kings. Heaven and Earth shall flee away, when He comes to reign. The difference with this King is that He gave up His life for us all. He died in our place. We get into His Kingdom by accepting the free gift of His sacrifice on the cross for us. Some kingdoms are worth being in. As the young American missionary, Jim Elliot said, "he is no fool, who gives what he cannot keep, to gain what he cannot lose". Reply |
20. Author: Tad Allagash Date: Thu 7th Nov 2024. 20:23 In the words of George Orwell: ‘A French journalist said to me once that the monarchy was one of the things that have saved Britain from Fascism. What he meant was that modern people can’t, apparently, get along without drums, flags and loyalty parades, and that it is better that they should tie their leader-worship onto some figure who has no real power. In a dictatorship the power and the glory belong to the same person. It is at any rate possible that while this division of function exists a Hitler or a Stalin cannot come to power. On the whole the European countries which have most successfully avoided Fascism have been constitutional monarchies.’ Reply |
