Papa Zoom: I entily agree. But the last time l said it l was told by a supposed friend they would not be wanting to see me. So now l say nothing but you can
Mousetrap: oh I had that happen too. I was called a selfish fool for refusing the shot and mocked by the daughter of a friend just before she “unfriendly” me on Facebook.
Mousetrap: well it’s working in some measure. Basically there are two goals, maybe more. Control and money. Just like man made climate change, total bull$hi£
Papa Zoom: Alot of both the vaccine scene and the climate scene, are businesses making alot of money from them. Many Conservative donors here in the UK have been given many dubious contracts for covid supplies such as PPE. Companies that have had NO previous experience in medical supplies, or even no pervious experience at all. As in.. the company was registered with company house, never traded in any way. And they get a multi million pound contract to supply PPE.
As to control.. it's called a two party system, with the media pushing that neither side can work together. And an education system (as George Carlin says) that leaves out the teaching of critical thinking.
N' as to man made climate change, try the Aral Sea. Have a look now, not much left of it.
Bwild: Aye a simple one a day vitamin pill, does a lot of good
Chicken little.. I see all sides predicting calamity if ya don't vote for them. Surprised that with the amount of times the sides cry "wolf", people don't question it. Like we were told be an extra £350 million a week available to fund the NHS post brexit, from us exiting the EU. When people who did look into the figures saw it was a lie, those pushing the figure still carried on lying. Our Prime Minister being one of them.

Tuesday: Prince Charles. That's why Queen Elizabeth even just agreed that Camilla can be called "Queen Consort" when Charles becomes King. (She was originally going to be called "Princess Consort" when Charles becomes King, due to being his 2nd wife. But Elizabeth has changed that recently. (Within the last month) I'm sure one of our British players can correct me if I am not completely accurate. Here is something I found : https://www.cbsnews.com/news/camilla-queen-consort-queen-elizabeth-jubilee-message/
Mousetrap: Yeah the tourism is very big business regarding the royals, palaces, etc. Even Harry is playing the 'I'm a poor royal' game for all it's worth.
Tuesday: I think his wife has a great deal of Hollywood in her blood. She's certainly acting up the part as a 'princess' who's no longer part of the establishment. I think she learnt that from Diana, and possibly Wallis Simpson. Edward VIII's frowned upon missus.
rod03801: Don't believe Queen Elizabeth can choose who the crown goes too. the line of succession is regulated by parliament.
While William seems more popular than Charles, citing dalliance on a politics discussion board seems a dubious reason to be worthy compared to several Politicians including presidents, prime ministers, ministers and rank and file politicians.
Border C Rule: That sounds correct to me. (About Parliament). Regardless, it would seem to be a silly reason, to not keep to the normal order of ascension. As I said, I doubt there is any King who didn't have a "dalliance" before or during his reign.
And as you said, of course the Catholic Church has zero say. (especially knowing the History)
(hide) If you want to play a game with an opponent of a similar level, you can define a required BKR range for a new game invitation. Then nobody with a BKR outside this range will be able to see/accept it. (Katechka) (show all tips)
