Queen Elizabeth thanks well-wishers for their 'touching messages of kindness'
Queen Elizabeth has thanked well-wishers in the UK and overseas for their “touching messages of kindness” as she becomes Britain's longest-reigning monarch. Speaking in the Scottish Borders, the 89-year-old monarch said the title was “not one to which I have ever aspired”. Read full article

Disclaimer & comment rules“The monarchy wouldn't be as popular if they were part of politics - they're above and beyond it.“ But I wonder how many ”policies” have been amended as a result of what Her Majesty may have said to her Prime Minister. WE can always remember that if our entire political class were to die, WE would still have Her Majesty. Perhaps Her Majesty would be kind enough to make republicanism a capital crime punishable by death. A way of improving the gene pool. How can anyone who has existed during the reign of OUR Queen Elizabeth even consider republicanism?

Death to those who dare question great leader.
Can't think of anyone who has been put to death for questioning HM reign.

Vestige, does this refer to CFK and the unfortunate investigator Sr Nissman?
Not very bright are you?

If she lives as long as her mother did then she could have another 15 years on the Throne.
Class Act. Gawd bless 'er!
Sep 10th, 2015 - 03:39 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@2. Iknow its been said before. “Vestige” of education. “Vestige” of intelligence. “Vestige” of worth. “Vestige” of nazis. Check out the meaning of “vestige”.
Sep 10th, 2015 - 05:13 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Vestigiality refers to organisms retaining characteristics that have seemingly lost the entirety of the original function. And deserve to die.
Yes, lets all check out the definition of “vestige”.
Sep 10th, 2015 - 07:36 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Check out the definition of “sycophant” while you're at it.
Maybe “introspection” “lemming” “fanatical” and “objectiveness” too.
btw Louis 14th still holds the European title.
Why does all this bother you, Vestige?
Sep 10th, 2015 - 08:21 pm - Link - Report abuse 0You care enough to comment.
I just saw a similarity between certain regimes and their cult of personality and what goes on in the minds of the like of conqueror.
Sep 10th, 2015 - 10:10 pm - Link - Report abuse 0'Oh the great one is flawless' type of deal.
Fawning isn't usually a good sign.

Though his record will fall to HM too.

C'mon Marcos, you can do better than that mealy-mouthed half-assed insult...

By the way, I await your explication.

Marcos - stupidest troll on MP
@16 Marcos,
Sep 11th, 2015 - 09:13 am - Link - Report abuse 0You have a problem with the Germans?
Pillock.
@12 Vestige,
Who is fawning?
Cannot we like our Sovereign?
l do anyway.
What harm has she ever done to you?
Another Pillock.
Unsure why highlighting the Queen's multicultural background is so common amongst Argentineans. Is this some subtle form of racism?
Sep 11th, 2015 - 09:53 am - Link - Report abuse 0Cristina Fernández de Kirchner's four grandparents were all born in Europe. 3 in Spain and 1 in Germany.
HM Queen Elizabeth has all 4 grandparents born in the UK. In deed of her 8 great-grandparents, all were British except one who was from Denmark.
For some reason this makes the Queen German but CFK Argentinean. She doesn't even get to be Danish.
Marcos you are the proud product of the Argentinean education system.
And it shows.
I have to wonder what you though of Néstor Kirchner whose parents were Chilean of Croatian descent and Swiss-German. The racist in you must have almost had a fit when you found that out.
I like the Queen...
Sep 11th, 2015 - 10:32 am - Link - Report abuse 0What is not to dislike...?
Always gracious to other dignitaries, always above politics and doesn't appear aloof...
No scandals, no gaffes...a faultless record...
That's got to be a record in itself...
...and where does she choose to holiday.....Scotland.....;-)
20 - conq and maybe 1 or 2 others.
Sep 11th, 2015 - 12:48 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Of course you can like her.
I've nothing against her as an individual.
(ok maybe 1 or 2 things, but they haven't motivated anything I've said here).
All I did was comment that from what I can see certain people might have taken a lemming/sheeple approach. Which I find a bit pathetic.
Likewise I'm not strongly opposed to Obama, but there are Obamaphone types out there, same ilk.
Try to be objective about the great benevolent leader, it will be good for you.
@22 “voice”
Sep 11th, 2015 - 01:01 pm - Link - Report abuse 0“I like the Queen...”
That's big of you.
Why did you feel you had to mention it?
Never mind....
I would engage Marcos in a battle of wit...
Sep 11th, 2015 - 03:00 pm - Link - Report abuse 0... but he has arrived unarmed...

Why not ask @20 why she mentioned that she liked the Queen...
What kind of a sad fcuker are you, that you have to pick on every comment I make regardless of its content...
All the hallmarks of a mindless Troll....
@16: And God save the spanish Marcos Alejandro too. So you aren't argentinian after all?

Oh, dear, are you crying because
you feel I'm picking on you...?
Can't take what you dish out to others?
Why would you feel compelled to pontificate about your position, unsolicited ?
One would assume you are already feeling defensive for some reason, or you feel conspicuous for not saying anything - when really it never entered anyone's mind to wonder what your opinion was.
You sound like you are trying to justify your own position, and you are so self conscious that you may be found wanting.
How pathetic is that!!??
Your ego is so fragile... the world is so unfair to you... “chuckle chuckle” as the pantomime horse's ass would say.
:-D
Don't flatter yourself
Does that post... “sound like you are trying to justify your own position”
Sep 11th, 2015 - 10:34 pm - Link - Report abuse 0For your unjustified and unprovoked attack....
I think it does...

Sep 11th, 2015 - 11:33 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I'm just responding to your challenge.
You initiated a a weirdly defensive statement.
Are you that insecure?
How long will you keep up your game of One Upmanship this time... ?
“Chuckle chuckle”
