In fact I do not mind an "elite" if that means rich people. The world is not fair and some people have more looks, brains and ability than others.
Royalty, however, should be done away with. Give up your title or your head.

She and that big-eared sot Prince Charles took advantage of a 19 year old girl and suckered her into continuing the line while lying to the church and everyone else.
I hate both of their fucking guts. It's about time their pampered existence was disrupted.

You're driving along in a car and someone runs up and breaks the window - yes the window was broken.

got within a few feet of Charles, and fired two shots from a starter's pistol. Charles had no idea it was not a real pistol, but he simply turned and looked at his assailant. I'll wager you would have had to change your drawers in a similar situation.
(Google "Prince Charles assassination attempt" for video.)

Freaking out is the RIGHT reaction to be honest.
Not defending them... just pointing a little reality here... and a few police intel units are probably reaching the same conclusion I have. This is more than just some isolated events... and I hope they wiffle.

This won't wake them up. Camilla will find even more strength in her elitist view that we're just here to subsidize her emeralds and poor Charles, who has a 20th of a clue, won't understand how his family's imperial millions have deprived others of justice.
Nope, not walking up anytime soon.

| 30. I think Charles has tried to be more human than some in the family... |

but it is quite a reach. I do give him some credit on that score, nonetheless. Camilla? Nah.... Privileged and so convinced she is above it all.
One thing that Diana appreciated is that a modern monarchy has to include interaction on the important social issues of the day. The aloofness to issues impacting the people who support them is what will eventually dismantle their system of entitlement.

| 61. Actually Charles always was concerned about the people's |

issues. The monarchy in Britain are not allowed to get involved in politics, but I believe he got himself in trouble during the Thatcher years by speaking up for the working class. He and Diana, had they had a good marriage, could have been a huge force for good as they had similar concerns in terms of the people. But they didn't. And I doubt Camilla has much interest in the little people.

Charles choose to sell his soul though for the hope of one day becoming king so he toes the line ... too bad because he's fairly liberal if he wasn't such a wimp.

I couldn't quite remember how it came about. I do remember the Queen and Philip weren't infavor of Camilla, probably pressured both of them out of marrying.

| 76. Although I'm no fan of theirs, the attack was wrong |
|
And irrelevant to the cause, which was rising tuition fees and education cuts. The royals have no political power, and the demo was really against Cameron, Clegg and the rest of the government.
This attack will be used by the right-wing media as ammunition against the students, and as a deflection from the real issues.
Needless to say, the tabloid press already have far more to say about this incident than about a young man who was nearly killed by a policeman's truncheon.

And the protest is against them. The attack on the royal car was a spin-off that got a lot of publicity, but has little to do with the real protest.
