I guess “God save the Queen” has taken on a whole new meaning in once-great England.

Hey, UK......guess what.....seems your haughty “post-Christian” culture is sucking you down the toilet of history. Great, eh? You reap what you sow, boys and girls. You know what you need to do if you have the humility and the balls to do it in the face of such idiotic, rampant political correctness.

correct, teg — rightonline, we shouldn’t condemn the Brits when we are heading in the same direction. We should be learning from their mistakes rather than following them

You reap what you sow, and unfortunately it is the children and future generations who will pay the largest price for the liberal socialist idiocy that has led down this road.

Depraved UK is depraved

Sounds more like men & women in the UK really hate each other & are seeking the same-sex out of desperation. But why am I not suprised? The GLBTs have always hated people of the opposite gender
