Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Her Majesty stood for all that is right and good about our Society. The things some garbage despise. And what do these types stand for ? Immature gutless tantrums if someone dares to disagree with them . Pitty we can’t chuck all these gutless woke types on a island far far away so they can all be with each other forever and the decent majority don’t have to see or hear from them. I endorse a two minute silence approach for next week. Anyone who yells out or disrespects put on a one way flight with Air China to their beloved woke CCP wonderland.

Decades ago, we used to sing God save the Queen, every Monday morning assembly, at Cheltenham High school, then salute the flag. And take an Oath of Loyalty too Her Majesty. I still recall the Oath- I LOVE GOD,,AND MY COUNTRY, I WILL HONOUR THE FLAG, SERVE OUR QUEEN, AND CHEERFULLY, OBEY MY PARENTS, TEACHERS, AND THE LAWS. Yes, folks, it was a different era, so long ago now. She was always part of my life.

Vale QE11, felt like my Nan passed, seemed like a good old stick.

Collingwood were perhaps more progressive on the ideal of a Republic.

Although Britannia produced some consistent results over the course of its final year, the people of Collingwood wanted change. More concisely, they wanted a club of their own. They argued that Britannia did not properly represent their suburb. What’s more, Britannia had strong connections with the Fitzroy Football Club who represented Collingwood’s closest neighbour, one with whom they did not share a cordial relationship.

Test cricket going ahead in England tonight, so that is the green light for everything to go on as planned.
