That makes it sound like the Anti-Monarchists are a team that have squandered their transfer budget on an ageing William and Harry who constantly wants away, when they could have really done with an attacking midfielder and a new goalkeeper.

"Then there are the military honours and decorations. Charles himself has accumulated dozens of medals, enough almost to sink one of the battleships under his command as a five star admiral. Oh, and he is also a five star general in the army and a five star air chief marshal in the RAF.

What stupendous military service or acts of bravery have led to this avalanche of medals? Well, he did captain a coastal minesweeper several decades ago for a short period. And he has only crashed a plane once.

The royals in fact have amassed between them over 100 military medals and decorations, and for what? Prince Edward, the Royal Honorary Colonel of the Royal Wessex Yeomanry, has never seen active service and even dropped out of his Royal Marines course because he couldn’t hack it."

Apparently Nonce Andrew, the Puke of Pork will be bestowed with a special award:-

Shouldn't that be.

BBC repeatedly referring to "anti-monarchy" Republic, but doesn't use a "pro-monarchy" qualifier when referring to Buckingham Palace, the Royal Family itself, or the government as sources.

Why?

I'm just amazed the BBC have acknowledged the existence of people who have a less than fawning attitude to the shiny hat lizards.

Somebody will be getting the sack.
