However the idea that the British STILL are willing to honor and fund this Obsolete Dynasty is beyond my understanding.... it's all show and tell.

Because if they didn't, they'd be led by democratically elected people, like Obama, Jerry Nadler, Adam Schiff, Nancy Pelosi, Bill and Hillary, AOC, Rashida Tlaib, Jeremy Corbyn, etc etc, or appointed people like Anthony Scaramucci.

I've always liked Philip, although I imagine he is grateful that in his wilder days, there were no cellphone videos or silent secret cameras.

It must have been quite a thrill to break bread with him, however. He is the John Wayne of that family. Handsome and virile.

But it’s often evident the royals are liberals and adhere to the globalist agenda because they stand to gain by doing so.....so again I do not understand why the british continue to uphold this dynasty.

Brexit is a step in the direction of UK being able to reassert its own identity, because under the European Union, almost two-thirds of UK’s laws are dictated by the globalizing EU, which Brexit is trying to shake off.

The royals are not supposed to participate in politics and get criticized whenever they do; and because Harry appears rather liberal doesn’t mean the Queen is. Further, it’s a constitutional monarchy, meaning the Monarch cannot by law participate in decisions of Parliament, although they can discuss all matters with the PM.

The purpose of the UK royal family is to influence society towards upholding family values, to uphold Christianity as the official religion (okay, everyone but the Queen is failing at that), and and perform various diplomatic acts that in this country are done by a revolving door of ambassadors, making our relations with other nations hyperpolitical by comparison.

And lastly, if there were no royal family with its vast financial influence, UK would collapse rather immediately and go immediately shari’a.

Do you see any difference in Clinton’s ex-President’s retirement, funded by taxpayers and Andrew’s stipend by the taxpayers of Britain? At least Andrew has been ‘singing for his supper’, fundraising etc. Both men are pigs, but Clinton (he is the man in the blue dress picture, found hanging in one of Epstein’s abodes) is still hitting it and no one has ever done anything about him.

Frankly I think the best approach is sometimes “I had no idea how old she was. She seemed very mature and everybody was partying. If she was under legal age I am sorry. What I did was wrong legally and morally. I am sorry and I am ready to face the consequences.” (I am not so much into “sex” as many others but I was a wild one, too, pretty much until my sophomore year in college.)

When I met him I really knew very little about the monarchy or that he was “important.” He was just the “Duke of Edinburgh” to me at that time and and it wasn’t really a thrill to hang out with him because he was HRH’s son. But... He WAS very lively and entertaining! Not so retarded Andrew and Charles.

Did you mean the husband of Her Royal Majesty the Queen? If not, I have misunderstood your previous posts. HRH's are of lower rank than the Queen. And Philip = not her son.

Oh. You see how little I care about these things. I was a Black Watch army cadet and he came to inspect our corps. Right: he’s her husband. I grew up in a family that wasn’t really interested in the life of “Royals,” and as you can see, I have continued the tradition! Frankly I am not sure I could tell Kate Middlesex from Kate Kardashian.

“His alibis for not having sex with Virginia Roberts three times including being in Woking’s Pizza Express “

Again a pizza reference when it comes to these trafficking and pedo scandals....

I suspect the pizza parlor reference may be a shot across the bow warning to some persons or others!

“snort chuckle”!

We appreciate your humor!(From the last reported words of Louis the 16th to his Priest, after being deposed having been found “to have no head for the royal business”!)

Marie Antionette ended up being “quite beside herself”!

Sarah Ferguson got a divorce from Prince Andrew in 1996. I am just wondering that is why she wanted the divorce. If my memory is correct, it was not a long drawn out story!
