“It was the 1980’s, a time when glitz was more important than substance.”

you can’t actually buy a peerage; this is a myth. the people who claim to sell them are scam artists. If you want to have one, you have to make an honest donation to one of the main political parties

So the bottom line is this: if there was no Norman Conquest in 1066, there would be no Royal Family today??

Interesting concept.

Unlike some, he owns up to his failings.

My last boss was awarded an OBE. My brother said, all that means is, he’s a crook.

Never even met the guy and he nailed it!

Royalty is nothing more than a waste of time, money and space.

Zonker has perspective!

Neither Prince nor Queen started any wars, so that’s proof giving people titles is a good thing

Nonsense. The royalty is still around because other people have asperations to being royalty themselves some day.

“Well, yes, but we stole that wealth fair and square!”

Plus, it was on sale on eBay. :) :) :)

I’ll take Richard The Lion Hearted over Trump The Chicken Hearted

Is Trump Henry the 8th re-incarnated?

He’s too fat to be Richard 3rd.

Zonker: So I can get special discounts and free shipping from Fortnum and Mason!!

And you’d bbq pig and cow not pork and beef.
