keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted September 8, 2022 I feel sorry in some ways for him. I don't want a King but as the monarchy exists I think its unfair that he is having to take it on in his mid 70s. The Queen should have abdicated 10 years ago. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No she recognised him as a useful idiot - a rich useful idiot. I am 66% there, I recognise him as a useless rich idiot… Edited September 8, 2022 by Foxy2600 Spelling Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Under the circumstances, does your smart-arsed retort about an added W constitute a self-own? Edited September 8, 2022 by littleyellowbirdie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
