It feels a bit like the English establishment media is drunk at the moment. The public seems to be on board with Andrew getting what's coming to him, and I suspect this hasn't really moved the dial on abolishing the monarchy for anyone that didn't already want to abolish the monarchy before the Epstein files were released. Edit: Spelling/grammar.
What about parliament? I'm sure we can find a few pedophiles (if they lack pedophiles, then they absolutely 100% sure have some corrupt bribe-demanders) there too. Is parliament rotten?
Is parliament rotten?
To the fucking core.
yes
Need some french helps for your monarchy ?
Downvoters, why are you downvoting? Explain yourselves or be branded spineless, dirty monarchists!
Since you asked, I thought the article seemed like a bit of a gossipy tangent of the more serious story of the day, and voted against it, it's just a vote, not a monarchist, the opposite, just got fed up with too much monarchy for one day.
