Royals give awards to royals ?????????????????

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-68882308

Do the titles actually mean anything?

They must have gotten jealous watching GoT & hearing: "Daenerys of the House Targaryen, the First of Her Name, The Unburnt, Queen of the Andals, the Rhoynar and the First Men, Queen of Meereen, Khaleesi of the Great Grass Sea, Protector of the Realm, Lady Regent of the Seven Kingdoms, Breaker of Chains and Mother of Dragons"

Meanwhile in Britain: "I say Wills, fancy being the Great Master of the Order of the Bath?

I don't know about dragons, but according to some conspiracy theorists, some female members of the Royal family are mothers of lizards.

"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:-

I think the monarch being represented emerging from centuries of bloody oppression across the world is quite appropriate.

Also I'd have no problem with the "Royal" family being preserved in carbonite, if that option is available. 😐

I see that our illustrious Queen ("Queen". In 2024. FFS.) has announced that she'll not be buying any fur products from now on.

Welcome to, what, the 1970s your maj. What kept you?

Wonder what caused this revelation? Was it the new painting of big luggie looking as if he's been skinned?
