Thread Name: songs for the queen's big day
Subject: RE: songs for the queen's big day
't would be nice to remember at his time that the system which protects the Queen is called "the Establishment".
The Establishment upholds the Monarch as the leader of the ( Anglican) Church of England.
I was born in 1947 as a Roman Catholic, and in that time Church of England ( or Protestants of every hue) have tolerated, though sometimes made it difficult, for Catholic English people.
Margaret Thatcher IMHO filled her cabinet with Jewish folk which changed the nature of the English / British Establishment forever.
I now look at the Monarchy and Establishment in this light - if , AND ONLY IF ,Diane was carrying the child Dodi Fayed,the Establishment, was NOT prepared to tolerate the existence to any Muslim line to the Crown.
What do I know ???? but the Crown is responsible for some barabaric acts over the centuries.
SONG :_ Let's have a chorus of " Are you working , No, are you??? three cheers for the Red White and Blue...........etc.

Anyway, God Bless the Queen, I'm sure she's a decent sort and had to put up with the same shit as many of us parents have had to deal with ,unfortunateley, most of us need to do so without the huge financial resources on which the Queen is able to call upon.
