New poll shows the British overwhemingly in favour of the monarchy

[Blackleaf]

A new poll has revealed that the British are still very much in favour of remaining a monarchy. 76% of Brits wish to keep the monarchy rather than becoming a republic. The Queen is also hugely popular, with 81% of the British say she should reign for life and never abdicate. More than half of Brits, though, would like to see Prince William become the next king rather than his father Charles, and 51% would love to see William's beautiful girlfriend Kate Middleton reign alongside him as Queen. If William uses his first name as king (many monarchs have used their middle name instead) then William would be King William V and his wife (if it's Kate Middleton) would become Queen Catherine.

The monarchy is even popular amongst the young: a whopping 70% of British 18 to 24-year olds are in favour of remaining a monarchy rather than becominga republic....

More than half of Britons would rather see Prince William be the next King rather than his father Prince Charles, according to an opinion poll.

And 51 per cent believe that his girlfriend Kate Middleton would be a worthy addition to the royal family.

Vote-winners: William and Kate are both popular with the public and the British would like Kate to become Queen when William becomes King


Support for the Queen remains strong, and 81 per cent do not believe she should consider stepping down in the near future.

More than three-quarters want to keep the monarchy, although the same proportion would like to see them spend less taxpayers' money.

The monarchy is even popular amongst young people: 70% of British 18 to 24-year olds favour Britain being a monarchy rather than a republic.

A republican Head of State: A new poll shows that the British remain intensely royalist and anti-republican (so we'll never have someone like Bush as a President)



The poll of more than a thousand people carried out to mark the launch of Discovery Channel's History Night, revealed that only 42 per cent think the Duchess of Cornwall is a good ambassador for the Royals, while 68 per cent preferred Princess Diana.

Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond, who oversaw the Discovery poll, said: "Camilla is still facing an uphill struggle for public acceptance, and Prince Charles seems to have a real image problem.

Crisis: But Camilla and Charles still have an image problem



"Even though he is the best trained heir to the throne we've ever had, the public seem reluctant to accept him as King.

"The damage caused by the breakdown of his marriage to Diana seems irreparable.

"I think it's sad; we should be more forgiving and accept that Charles is a far wiser head on more experienced shoulders than a boy of 25.

Pat on the back: Support for the Queen and the Monarchy remains strong in Britain


"Seventy-six per cent favour monarchy over republic, which is a high approval rate by any measure and is largely due to the constancy of the Queen's long reign.

"She should give herself a pat on the back for a job well done."

"Pat on the back: Support for the Queen and the Monarchy remains strong in Britain"

a defining moment of arrested development

Good for the Brits, as they remain proud of their monarchy. I remember when the queen
was crowned in her twenties, as we were given a day off from school.

It is not our business to criticize the queen/monarchy, we made our decision to go on our
own many years ago, but what they do is 'theirs', and they love her.

There hope for humanity afterall.

For sure, I'll never forget the response from many of the British people when Bush was
elected for the second time, they were totally amazed to think the u.s. citizen actually
'did that'.
It's too bad all of the voting public in the u.s. wasn't shipped out before that election so
that they could observe 'Bush' from outside, so they could get a more realistic view of
the real him, Carl Rove really did a number on them, and they have greatly suffered under
that 'so called' leadership' since then.
Queen Elizabeth would have been a wonderful replacement for him, and with Tony Blair
at her side the u.s. would have flourished, and Iraq would have been left alone.
I'll bet Tony Blair bangs his head against the wall every night before retiring, in disgust
that he stood side by side with that dunderhead.

As my grandad used to say "Long Live the Queen", he was such a faithful true and
dedicated englishman, even after living in Canada for many years.

Quoting Talloola " As my grandad used to say "Long Live the Queen", he was such a faithful true and
dedicated englishman, even after living in Canada for many years."

Most of em are, Talloola. My maternal grandparents were about 50 years in Canada, and still referred to the UK as "home" :lol: . And Gramma was a founding member of the local IODE (Independent Order of the Daughters of the Empire). Or "International Order", I forget.

They had ample opportunity and money to visit "home" several times, but something always 'came up'.........Probably diddn't want to leave the Tetley Tea..........(only in Canader,,,,pity);-)

Maybe this is something new?

The City Of London is the Vatican of the commercial world

Links and the rest of the story, which is highly interesting concerning this, below.

To avoid misunderstanding, it is important that the reader recognize the fact that two separate empires were operating under the guise of the British Empire. One was the Crown Empire and the other was the British Empire.

All the colonial possessions that were WHITE were under the Sovereign - i.e. under the authority of the British government. Such nations as the Union of South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and Canada were governed under British law. These only represented thirteen percent of the people who made up the inhabitants of the British Empire.

All the other parts of the British Empire - nations like India, Egypt, Bermuda, Malta, Cyprus and colonies in Central Africa, Singapore, Hong Kong and Gibraltar (those areas inhabited by the BROWNS, YELLOWS ANND BLACKS) were all Crown Colonies. These were not under British rule. The British parliament had no authority over them.

THEY ARE PRIVATELY OWNED AND RULED BY A PRIVATE CLUB IN LONDON, ENGLAND KNOWN AS THE CROWN.

The Crown's representative in such areas held the absolute power of life and death over all the people under his jurisdiction. There were no courts and no method of appeal or retribution against a decision rendered by the representatives of the Crown. Even a British citizen who committed a crime in a Crown colony was subject to the Crown law. He couldn't appeal to British law as it didn't apply.

As the Crown owned the committee known as the British government there was no problem getting the British taxpayer to pay for naval and military forces to maintain the Crown's supremacy in these areas. Any revolts were met with terrible retribution by the British navy at no cost to the Crown.

The City reaped fantastic profits from its operations conducted under the protection of the British armed forces. This wasn't British commerce and British wealth. The international bankers, prosperous merchants and the British aristocracy who were part of the 'City' machine accumulated vast fortunes which they lavishly squandered in their pursuit of prestige and standing in British Society. Had the wealth been spread out among all the people in the British Isles prosperity would have abounded. [I am not suggesting that this should have been done, the thefts from the exploited should never have occurred to begin with - ralph].

In spite of the wealth of the world flowing into the City the majority of the British people were barely making ends meet. Many were impoverished to the point of despair. The elite lived in regal splendor. The poor British peasants were never given a chance to get a cut of the action. - [end excerpt]

If you haven't seen this information before, you'll find out that it's worse than you think. From the book "Descent into Slavery" by Des Griffin - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/28rkoc

Now, there are people who are wondering where all the money goes? Where, who and what kind of creatures are these, that have never found out that you can't eat more than one steak at the time?

Well, via the privately owned 'Bank of England' it is 'recycled' through the rather secret 'head office' of this London group in Basle, Switzerland, the likewise privately owned 'Bank of International Settlements', the BIS. BIS is central bank to central banks. The BIS has greater immunity than a sovereign nation, is accountable to no one, runs global monetary affairs and is privately owned. - BIS Url.: http://tinyurl.com/y6xmed

And it may be difficult for many of us to grasp but it is true: none of the humanoids involved in 'The City', at the by them owned 'Bank of England' or at the Swiss based BIS is ever anywhere on earth accountable for what is done to you or anybody else, including countries and continents.

The bookkeepers and usurers are absolutely immune and there is NO law nor any kind of court on this earth which ever can stop them. They think...

Oh, and the Rothschilds decide the gold price too. It's just history, you know? - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/a2kkb

You better look at the whole scene - of which you are a miniscule part - like this: the wole world - including you - is one big production unit. Security concerning the profits is in special CIA etc.-hands and they kill anybody anywhere for profit. You too if necessary.

World Bank 'insider' and later whistle blower John Perkins, here on ICH confirmed the misery, the gory work of the CIA's 'jackals' for the multinationals. - Url.: http:// www.informationclearingho...article8171.htm

You see, the BIS group decides not only the interest rates, your cost of living or wars, but also how much the 'moneys' in your wallet or the 'zeros' and 'ones' on your credit card(s) are worth. Or the 'money' for people within this system, anywhere on this globe the BIS racket rules.

It's of course a bloody shame, but if you're not informed about a danger you can't avoid it. Why not talk to your local editors and ask?

Like in the movie All the Presidents Men 'Deep Throat' told the reporters: "Follow the money" and that's what they should do too.

However, now you know where most of the money goes.

And to whom.
