British Royalty..........Why??????
After hearing about Prince Harry's "tasteful" costume he wore to some event, I must ask why do you taxpayers shell out your hard earned cash to these decadent, anachronistic, inbreeders while these figure-heads live like......well....Royalty!?
These guys serve no purpose anymore other than to follow some silly tradition that has long over stayed its welcome. Why not uprise and toss these pampered, wastes of skin to the curb and tell them to get a real job?
These guys are just a tax burdon to you guys and civilization has moved on....I say into the woodchipper with them!

Did he think that was funny or something? I heard he's being forced by his dad to go to Auschwitz to get a better understanding of the Holocaust.

Agree 100%!! I've been saying that for decades. I dont actually hate them, I just dont see the point of them now. They are irrelevant and expensive. The only purpose they serve is to attract tourists like some 'quaint' circus freak show.
The main reason they are upset about Harry wearing Nazi insignia is because the royals are embarassed by the fact that they were on pretty good terms with Hitler before the war. Infact King Edward was a known Nazi sympathiser. The Germans had a plan, that if they had invaded England, Edward would be in charge of running half the country.

They are just keeping the throne warm until the return of the Once And Future King.

The British royal family is the closest we get to the missing link. Kick out the freeloading bastards,I say.

European royalty isn't too much different from our heirs and heiresses...if the Hilton sisters had several hundred years of tradition behind them, there'd be little difference.

Royalty really is a disgusting bunch of inbred cretins and why it is still going on in this day and age is a mystery. And the worst part is: We "commoners" (now there's a nice word. Not demeaning at all!) are supposed to crawl for these pampered morons and treat them as superior beings.

The way I see it:
I bow to no man or woman.
Royalty is dreadfully anachronistic and like religion is used as a "tool" to keep us in "our place".
No disrespect to any German members, but you can have this lot of erstwhile Krauts back, any time!

Why George Bush?Because the majority of the US voted for him you you silly goose. Can the same thing be said about your monarchy who parades around in nazi uniforms?

What's wrong with the Queen? Roger Taylor is a bit of a knob, I grant you, but that Freddie Mercury was great

Never been a monarchist, but when I look at France, Germany and the US, I'm glad I live where I do.
England tried being a republic (1649-1660) and it didn't work.
If you yanks are so happy why do you have such a cult for the Brittish royals going on. A princess farts and you make a miniseries about it. Everyday the Mall gets clogged up with American tourists, 'cause say what you like, Brad and Jennifer just don't have the same allure. You Americans are more fond of our royals than we are, 'cause like history, you ain't got none! nuh nuh na nuhnuh with nobs on.

I suppose you mean all Yanks by "you Yanks". Only the people who read People magazine and watch Oprah Winfree and believe it fit into your Royal Hopper of crap. They would also care about Jennifer and Brad too. Others of us have better things to do. Your mall I think is more like Disneyland. Maybe your queen (Prince Charles) should wear mouse ears and big white gloves. I would pay a dollar to see that once.
As for our history all you need to do is watch the Simpsons. But then again I would rather have no history than be history.
