Has the Queen died?

[belboid]

I never knew why she was called Brenda until checking Wikipedia and finding out it was a desperate bid to be down with the poor old oppressed working classses. King Philip was Keith - pretty much the same as Sir Keir Starmaggedon. 37 million people watched it. They tried to ban it but now it's on YouTube for the oppressed working classes to watch at their leisure.

It was a private eye joke after the film had been released, not the film itself. They carried on the ‘tradition’, thus making Diana into Cheryl

Good old Private Eye. Haven't read it for years. Me and my mate Pixie Malone did a satirical scandal sheet called Public Ear at school on the Apple Macs in the computer room. Sold like hotcakes.

Ah, OK. Wikipedia not very clear on that, though.

I think they only did Brenda, Keith, Brian and Cheryl, although they might've done the Queen Mum too. They only use Brenda and Brian regularly now, even before Keith snuffed it.

I love Private Eye and find it a forensic and funny examination of tyranny and corruption but felt under Hislop it had been a bit conservative and was basically playing the same tune without adapting particularly to the internet revolution. But I don't want to be hard on Hislop as he has done great work.

O/T, but I knocked down the building briefly shown at 17-18 seconds a number of years back, who can tell me what it is(was)?

Would you care to get the JCB out and demolish Buckingham Palace and Windsor? Or shall we nationalise them and give them to the homeless on the Finnish model?

As well as the urban holdings the Crown holds 1,960,000 acres of land ripe for nationalisation and redistribution. Jeremy Corbyn can have an allotment the size of Buckinghamshire to grow endless courgettes to feed Marcus Rashford's ravenous school children. That way we can avoid another Daniel Pelka trying to eat out of the bins at school.

Starved boy Daniel Pelka 'invisible' to professionals

Chances were missed to help Daniel Pelka, who was murdered by his mother and her partner after a "terrifying" ordeal of starvation and abuse, a report finds.

Contract manager for the demolition. Salvaged a few things out of it. A big bitey crane thing smashed up most of it.

Meh, Brenda's poop is harder than he is

:-D

You protest too much

I suppose you’d let it lie

I think we should house the homeless in Buck House to take a leaf out of Finland's book and sort out the 200,000 core homeless Crisis have identified but if not then demolishing is heroic work.

Spanner you're increasingly running out of things to say, aren't you? How's the study of Shakespeare's collected works going for you over there?

Dulce et Decorum Est

Bent double, like old beggars under sacks, Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge, Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs, And towards our distant rest began to trudge.

(Former Regal/ABC cinema in the middle of Hull if anyone cares, there’s also a famous photo of the Beatles leaning out of one of the side windows when they played there - have a vague memory that that window was going to be saved for a museum or something but can’t remember if that actually happened)

I feel dirty about posting the Daily Express but their take is quite interesting.

My stepgrandfather studied maths at Hull in the 1950s. Have never been but would like to visit.

Have they enough for a guillotine yet?

Have they enough for a guillotine yet?

Have to be careful what we say, publicly, about the guillotine plans; remember when Chris Knight & pals were preemptively arrested on pre-crime charges for simply having a mock one.

i remember being on the rainy anti-monarchy march in 1998 where a guillotine was wheeled from hyde park to whitehall

sadly no royal parasites presented themselves to test the mechanism
