GordonD Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 So has it definitely been established that the term 'bead-rattlers' is NOT offensive to Catholics? Might as well stop using it then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My copy hasn't arrived yet but I was wondering how they would handle it. I'm looking forward to this issue, that's for sure. I think the other fella on the cover probably isn't... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weirdly they ignore that when it suits. In good news there is now many many English pub goers who were all set for a day of fitba and boozing that have now had that ruined so that's more folk joined the list of bin this Family. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Labour has called for a full enquiry but the Tories are going to vote against it - they'll have a (secret) internal investigation and find that he did nothing wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotThePars Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 On a work call this morning we were told that our department, and most other government depts, were told or 'advised' to pull back from publishing any internal or external comms including advertising any jobs which weren't time critical. Good stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Bbc received a record number of complaints (over 100k) about the shifting the Masterchef Final to keep broadcasting about his death. I reckon the monarchy will be abolished within the next 50 year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jean King Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 The guest list for the service includes 30 people, with three German relatives.Those attending will be in morning coats with medals, or day dress, but not wear military uniform.I'm sure those two sentences are in no way connected, at least the official line is the dressing up box is not getting opened to avoid Harry feeling awkward ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the story there? Surely Harry should be more entitled to wear uniform than most of them, given that he served recently in an actual sort of war. Andrew would be the only other one to see action, apart from the bloke in the box. I take it it's to do with him no longer being a Royal or something? What about all the normal folk who've been in the forces and wear uniform on formal occasions? I suppose it's just more evidence of the nonsense of the whole thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mizfit Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Considering they’ve moved the football for this I might watch it out a morbid curiosity. Shot for every time the camera cuts to Charles muttering “wrong one” to Camilla. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
