To Touchstone and Hoseman I cannot believe how uninformed you appear to be and I find your comments disturbing and offensive.
Our Queen is the most stable,wonderful dedicated person we have ever had in this country for a very long time. She is the head of my Church and I would not like to hear anyone say anything so harsh about the head of the Roman Catholic Church or any other Church.
When the Royal Families were rid of in Russia there was Stalin, Germany, Hitler, Italy, Mussolini, Spain, Franco, Greece, The military and so many more. I lived in Greece after the Greek Royal Family had gone into excile and believe me, it was not a nice place to be.
The Queen costs each of us approx 70 pence a year. That, to me, is excellent value for money and a President would cost a whole lot more for a whole lot less. Time to read your history books!
I think our Queen and the Duke's visit is wonderful for our region and at least you can't say she was snubbing us!

Thank you Geekus, I could say a whole lot more but curbed my anger.

I'd rather have her than a president. I do love Phil the Greek though - his "Philisms" have me in stitches

The Queen had her role as monarch forced upon her at a very young age, yet has never once shirked from her responsibilities in representing this country or the Commonwealth Nations.
Regardless of anyone's personal opinions of royalty in general, she remains one of the hardest working people in this country.

Good. I think you could do with a history lesson of your own if you think Monarchy equals some kind of wonderful utopia.

I would much sooner have the Monarchy than Karl Marx and Engels ideas of Utopia. Karl Marx didn't even work he was classed as 'lazy'.
If you have something constructive to say then do so, we'll all read it, could be very interesting.

I'm with you Granny when it comes to the present incumbent of the Royal throne. An extraordinary woman who knows more about world politics than any Prime Minister. I am waiting for the day when she writes her own Christmas address instead of that thrust upon her.

well said, Engels and Marx where both born with silver spoons as well so they never experienced poverty they just wrote about it. The Monarchy is a great part of English heritage and we should be proud of it, not many countries have a historic background like we do, which makes us very lucky.
