The only way up is -- Republic --
May 21st, 2012 - 10:24 am - Link - Report abuse 0Kingdom is finished -- long live Republic.
The majority of the countries with the best standards of living, education, human development, are all Monarchies or are related to a country with one. Republics can bite me.

May 21st, 2012 - 09:32 pm - Link - Report abuse 0House ownership in the UK is a misnomer: it is mostly mortgage based and people pay the loan back over many years (20 or more is not uncommon). But up to now it was cheaper than renting property.
In South America things are different, it is very unusual for anyone to be able to get a loan for a house I am informed. This in itself brings major problems.
Argentina has 40% of her population living in slums. The UK got rid of slums decades ago.
Does Argentina HAVE two million new graduates, employed or not?
Do you not see that your blind hatred of the UK is nothing other than averace or jealousy.
The vast majority of Argentinos would be ecstatic to have the living standards of most brits.

May 21st, 2012 - 09:41 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I didn't compare Britain with Argentina.
@3 - MurkyThink. We tried that republic thing a couple of hundred years before Argentina even existed. We didn't like it, so we got rid of it and formed a radical new form of government. A Constitutional Monarchy. It works very well, even Japan opted for this type of government after WW2, and they appear to like it too.
May 21st, 2012 - 09:41 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@13 - geo. and your post has precisely what to do with this story?
Back to the story. The Armed Forces day was brilliant, and the fly over incredible.
I have to admit the precision of the RAF pilots was breathtaking. They flew in perfect formation in a diamond, then a 60 followed by E II R. Brilliant.
And let's not forget the march past by serving members of the all the branches of the service, representing every trade and cap badge.
Her Majesty looked really happy at the way the day turned out, especially when she received messages from those who are currently serving on operations on land and at sea.
Keep up the sterling work, Ma'am. In the words of Shakespeare, “God and His Angels protect Your sacred throne, and make you long become it.” Henry V, Act I, Scene II.

@17 - geo. once again you post inane drivel. Just WHAT do your posts on the British economy (which you give no references to support your statements) have to do with this story on the HMQ's Diamond Jubilee?
May 21st, 2012 - 10:24 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Oh and what are old clothings? Your post makes no sense, your google translate isn't working.
