They're 2 different medals. The "general public" one is more of a commemorative coin than a medal per se.

Its only temporarily suspended - and it is a medal not a coin!


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

I don't need to give up my luxuries in life, because I work hard, and earn lots of money to pay for them, thank you. I also already have my own pension pot and investments for the future. None of it is provided by the state. If you honestly think I'm moaning about the cost of things, I think you need to go back to school, the point I was making was totally different.

Fair do's to them though, they know nothing of real life, and thus they think life is all tea parties and diamonds.


what has not thinking for yourself have to do with getting the diamond jubilee medal?

Aha I see your argument faultered, so the best you could come out with is a predefined response. How about explain why I am jealous of a group of out-of-touch, spoon fed, hasbeens, who should have been put out of their misery decades ago...

i asked a question?? so a predefined response is sort of what i would expect, you seem like one of those blokes who is rather obnoxious, thinks he's mighty intelligent, though that was quite a sweeping statement and i have no evidence to back it up with, just like yourself!

read back through the posts, see what we have written, look @ the qualifying criteria, look at my avatar and see if you grasp whats being talked about

Unless I'm very much mistaken, the qualifying criteria waffle you decided to post, came after you claimed you agree that "they are all just jealous". The original statement was clearly made in response to condemnation of the Royal Family by various members.

As you have no argument to back such a ridiculous claim up, you now decide to play a different tactic to avoid making yourself look like, for want of a better word, a muppet, for making such a silly statement.

I say it again, what exactly am I supposed to be jealous of?

Gerrod Parrot acknowledges that people can experience envy and jealousy at the same time. Feelings of envy about a rival can even intensify the experience of jealousy. Resentment of circumstances Parrott, W.G. (1992). The emotional experiences of envy and jealousy. In P. Salovey (Ed.), The Psychology of Jealousy and Envy (pp. 3–29).

I am not a Republican or a member of the Republic political movement, the Royal Family are not my rival - unless they happen to be Man Utd fans!!
