    :roll: What a snivelling toadie! She'd probably spit on you - either that, or consider you're not worth spitting on? The mindless worship of a total stranger must be in the genes? [​IMG]

    She doesn't spit on anyone. I have met her several times and she is always the height of manners.

    Did she say, 'Hello Sab - have you come far?' [​IMG]

    She probably said, watch my grandson's back in the up and coming battle.

    I have twice sworn an oath of allegiance to the Queen. It came easy to me each time and I meant it both times.
    I hate my government. I despise our political system and yet I love the Queen.

    The Queen is the boss. There has to be a top dog in any social pyramid.
    Why not her?
    For me it's not a case of blind worship at all. My allegiance is neither blind nor worshipful.
    I haven't ever met her, but that is a selfie I'd like to take.

    Because she isn't smart enough. She's a devotee of EastEnders and anyone who spends their life watching drivel like that can't be smart.

    Let's give the Queen a great - albeit belated - birthday present by freeing her country from the shackles of Brussels.

    - - - Updated - - -

    No, she won't. Her Majesty is a lovely woman. She doesn't spit on people.

    Jesus wept - stop tugging your forelock and get a bloody life fgs!

    On second thoughts though - if she frees our (not her's, I mean Her's :mrgreen: ) country from the shackles of Brussels I'll either eat my hat, or join you in wishing the old girl a belated Happy Birthday, Marm. grovel-grovel The choice is yours!

    I'd rather the Queen was my boss than you.
    That's all you need to know really.

    That's right. I choose the Queen to be my boss over you and whatever rival political system you wish to imagine. Over anything you say or do or think.
    The more you wish to challenge that, the more you are reinforcing it.

    You see, when I choose to accept the Queen as my boss, I'm not just accepting her, I'm rejecting you.

    Maybe you would prefer comrade Corbyn to be your head of state

    At least he's worldly-wise, and that doesn't come by watching tv soaps like EastEnders.

    Yes, my boss.
    I believe that I am not the most important person in the world.

    I believe in an authority higher than my own. I believe so because I wish to limit my arrogance.

    I wish to live a life that is not so self obsessed. I do not seek to put myself first in life.
    I believe this free's me from some of the petty immediacies of my own nature.

    In much the same way as having children does. The responsibility to others gives me a higher purpose from which I gain an immense amount of confidence and fulfilment.
    It distracts me from the minor personal issues in life that otherwise would obsess me.
    It frees me.

    I am part of something bigger than myself. And as such I am able to get along with people.
    Offer them equal respect to myself. Because I am not no.1. Not even equal first place. And I am not looking to be.
    I have many bosses. My Mrs., My mum, my employer. My queen.
    All of them my boss. (all of them women!)

    So I am a loyal subject, and I laugh at the mere citizens of America, France, China and North Korea. It sucks to be you.

    Spoken like someone no one will ever follow.
    An authorityless leader.

    Boo hoo hoo. Is the Queen richer than you?
    Poor thing.
    Boo hoo hoo. Is the Queen better loved than you?
    Poor thing.
    Boo hoo hoo. Is no one joining your utopian nation of one?
    Poor dear.

    Where you lead, no one follows.
