Guest iKrautDroid Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 Pippa looked extremely sexy... :mellow: Alright already... But on CNN they had a best dressed poll and Kate was first, then Victoria Beckham and then Pippa...
Guest agreenjesus Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 The royal family. Why do they still exist? "They bring so much money into the country through tourism & business." Bollocks. If we need them to bring money into the country what a sad country we live in. Why does one of the richest families in the world receive public funding? As a taxpayer I have to fund these people's lifestyles including weddings. They're zoo animals, everything's handed out to them like benefit scroungers. Everyone bends over backwards to suck up to them, the military let themselves be used like a rich kid's Boy Scouts group. In a sense I feel for them, can they ever know if anything they achieve is based on their own input or ability or just part of the royal joy ride. The one thing I admire the French for is their success in ridding themselves of their aristocracy. We did a half arsed job & then let them carry on a few years later. It would indeed be a carry on farce & quite entertaining if they paid for themselves & lived by the merits of their of own abilities. Feudalism lives on in England. As you might have guessed I'm not a monarchist.
Guest That-Guy Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 Sadly I was working on the big day so missed it all :o ..............Shame :mellow:
Guest eLJay Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 Sadly I was working on the big day so missed it all :o ..............Shame :mellow: Well most people in the UK didn't bother, I told off 2 people for posting this archaic rubbish on facebook. Unfriended by them its no real loss (their dumb posts about kids and their dumb lives was driving me mad). Roll on the UK Republic!
Guest Azurren Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 Someone said, not many people watched it and the British didnt care... Over 24 million watched it... that a lot of people and shows a lot of people did give a hoot! Didn't watch myself but glad therye happy, much rather watch the royal wedding than see Cameron f the British Public daily! Anyway... P.s. and Id also rather see money spent on royals than any more imagrants! To put that into perspective more people watch "Top Gear" every week :mellow: 7-7.5m viewers in the uk, a lot more worldwide
Guest Mushroom_Lord Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 Thins is that its almost never going to end. Because we are British -we keep our traditions, etc.

Remember what the French had to do to get rid of theirs? :o Edited May 1, 2011 by Azurren

Those stats from BBC and Wikipedia! Also Jeremy Clarkson is the worst person on TV and is a national joke.

My figures for the royal wedding were obviously bogus :mellow: But then again thats 7.5 million viewers every week (average) vs 24 million one off views. 24 million out of 61,838,154 proves that most of us don't care But no one insults Clarkson :o Off the top of my head: Jonathan Ross, Keith Lemon and Russell Brand are some of the worst TVs got to offer Edited May 1, 2011 by Azurren
Guest eLJay Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 Sorry guys...got to ask...why is the Royal Wedding being discussed in the Blade forum? :? I think it's for our mental wellbeing, I have to deal with people everyday who are brainwashed royalists. Always wondered why they made education in UK schools so poor, its to make good royalists of them all. I have to deal with these idiots everyday, just saying what they think people want to hear and not having their own ideas. So many wannabe social climbers and not enough real people left to think, no wonder the UK music industry is in its death knells.

Guest xeyaztian Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 I think some of you would be happier in Iran! But then you couldnt use your ZTE Blade to its full potential! I didn't even watch the Royal Wedding and I'm glad it happened for the economic and social reasons. Its not about being royalist or anti royalist its about being English, and having the world see England in a positive light instead of a negative one as it mostly is now a days. Cheer up people, you dont have to hate everything!

Guest xeyaztian Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 I'm sorry, I had no idea the UNION jack was the flag of England......... The flag of England is the St Georges Cross, adopted in the 16th century and 1801 the Union Flag was adopted as the UK's flag, however most people call it the Union Jack. And the royal wedding took place in England and the UK not Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland. So tbh ethier the St Georges Cross flag or the Union Flag would be acceptable for the Royal Wedding. However you could include common wealth flags as well. And the Union Flag is a combination of all of the UK, so it is also the flag of England, Scotland, Wales (Though it does not include any Welsh flag elements) and Northern Ireland. So in short yes the Union FLAG is the flag of England. (Plus others!)
