look at that. a man with a ridiculous name so very much resembling that of a contraceptive device can stand proud and rigid in front of the people without shame.

Seems the name Saxe-Coburg is more of a shameful let down than Cundom.

Fatuous jokes aside...

how sad that his claim to fame is that “ we wont be going backwards”...

as if to signal “Going forward” was ever out of reach, but at least we wont be going backwards.
