Prince Andrew, Duke of York, named in underage 'sex slave' lawsuit

[SpookyFrank]

I can just imagine the late D of Es comments when he heard about Andrew, it would have been along the lines of 'What the fuck next?'

Probably more like, 'A nonce eh? That reminds me of dear old Uncle Dickie. And myself, come to think of it."

 

[Dystopiary]

To be fair this is the standard protocol for use of the ignore function on u75.

Ah.

 

[cupid_stunt]

That is how I use it.

Oh, so you admit that you don't actually put people on ignore, brilliant.

 

[bellaozzydog]

who is Edward and what has he done?

Lympstone Commando training center Royal Marines named their salad bar after him

It is undemocratic to ignore the rather embarrassing fact of high democratic support for the monarchy and distrust of a presidential system.

I must have missed the Election for the Monarchy.



Not even true that "the monarchy" is popular. Only four are above 47% popularity and one of those is dead. The rest clearly do have shit all over them.

You've got quite an ignore list for someone who's been here, lol, 2 weeks.

Oh, and can I go on it as well, if I tell you to fuck off?

You'll have to be more imaginative than that, say something like Boris Johnson shits out better arguments than you come out with, you personify what someone worse than a cunt is

Probably more like, 'A nonce eh? That reminds me of dear old Uncle Dickie. And myself, come to think of it."

If you have proof that the late Duke of Edinburgh was a child molester, post it. Otherwise, fuck off.

"Monarchy" has more support than a Republic.
The monarch is elected by Parliament under Acts of Parliament. Parliament has the power to elect a different monarch. It last did this at the Gloriious Revolution in the late seventeenth century.

 

[1927]

So you think that the democratic will should be ignored? Interesting!

What is this democratic will you refer to?

"Monarchy" has more support than a Republic.

Who mentioned a republic? Probably more support than everyone having holes drilled in their heads, doesn't make it remotely democratic.

The monarch is elected by Parliament under Acts of Parliament. Parliament has the power to elect a different monarch. It last did this at the Gloriious Revolution in the late seventeenth century.

Not democratic as in elected by people then. Not even democratic as in elected by anyone in the last three hundred years. Very selective definition of 'democratic' you have there.

But only one poster here is old enough to remember that, so it doesn't really count as an argument

No, it isn't.

Democracy and monarchy are entirely different things. Democracy implies election, hereditary monarchy does not.

At present we have monarchy, in the future, that may change. Just as the police police by consent, the monarchy is by the nation's consent. If that consent is withdrawn, we will move to having a president, probably.

Edited to add:

If you want to continue here, I would suggest that you wind your neck in a tad. You are already tedious.

 

[1927]

Onto ignore for abuse.

If thats the criteria for ignoring then you'll have a pot of people on ignore!

 

[1927]

Most of it was opinion. Fact is decided by groups, not individuals.

Eh? Facts are facts, they aren't decided by anyone!

If you have proof that the late Duke of Edinburgh was a child molester, post it. Otherwise, fuck off.

As an adult he commenced his grooming of a girl who had just turned 13.

Or, looked at in current terms...undergraduate grooms Y8 aged child.

 

[1927]

I am no supporter of monarchy but I do respect enduring public opinion.

Where do you get this idea from that the majority of the British public are in support of the continuation of this outdated concept of monarchy?

 

[Sasaferrato]

As an adult he commenced his grooming of a girl who had just turned 13.

I think you will find that it was the other way about, the 13 year old girl decided that he was the one for her,

 

[Sasaferrato]

Where do you get this idea from that the majority of the British public are in support of the continuation of this outdated concept of monarchy?

Do people in the UK want to keep the monarchy?
According to UK-wide polling, the majority of people are in favour of the monarchy.

The latest poll from YouGov on 8 and 9 March 2021, was taken after the Sussex’s interview. In it, 63 per cent of those surveyed across the UK wanted to keep the monarchy, while 25 per cent preferred an elected head of state.

Godless socialist rabble have a bit to wait I reckon.

Edited to add:

That took ten seconds of Googling, not exactly got your finger on the pulse of the nation 1927 do you?

Repeated opinion polls. Where do you get the idea that there is support for a republic?

What other way is there?

Jesus Sas.

He is plumbing the depths today

 

[Border Reiver]

Eh? Facts are facts, they aren't decided by anyone!

I suggest you study epistemology.

 

[Pickman's model]

What other way is there?

The only way is ethics

 

[Orang Utan]

Victim-blaming a child who is a future monarch. Think that might be treason. To the gallows, Sasaferrato !

 

[cupid_stunt]

Where do you get this idea from that the majority of the British public are in support of the continuation of this outdated concept of monarchy?

Probably from here...

To see how far these cunts have gone, back in 2009 there was a shock when Charles' harpist turned out to be a burgling smackhead and polite society was all in a tizzy that such a person could get so close to the prince of Wales. What seemed to leave no one fucking agog is that Charles has a harpist. What, 30-40 grand a year to have someone twang a harp as you waft past, in a world where some people die every day of starvation as they are too poor to buy food.

Play fair 30-40k that's only a couple of packets of duchy originals
