We changed. It was part of the death of the empire post WWll. Like losing exclusive trade within the Commonwealth to the US . That is when the US and Canada exploded and England was suffering under austerity.

Does the queen not address her people as "subjects" any more?

You are a subject

I'm a citizen, not a subject.

You remember that... Walton can buy and sell your little Island at her pleasure.


The UK is worth £7,274,666,000,000.

This vast sum was calculated by adding up the value of everything in the country, from buildings and vehicles to animals, artwork and cash in the bank. EVERYTHING.

The cost of the UK has risen by £73 billion, or around 1%, since 2011.

The total equates to £114,000 for every man, woman and child.

This means that Christy Walton, with her US$36.7 billion (the equivalent of £22.3 billion), needs 326.2 times the amount of money which she has in order to buy the UK.

'Fraid not... You are a subject, or as EagleSmack more accurately described you, a vassal.

You exist solely at the convenience of your betters


The UK is worth £7,274, 666,000,000.

Isn't the Queen broke?

I believe that Buckingham Palace will make an excellent location for a new Walmart Superstore.

Nope. I'm a citizen. You, as a Canadian, may be a subject, but I, by law, am a citizen.

That must be pretty denigrating to be of the knowledge that you exist only at the mercy of your betters.

Thankfully, I live in a nation where this does not exist

No. The Queen is worth around £300 million.

Nope... She's broke.

Queen down to her last million due to courtiers' overspending, report finds - Telegraph

Maybe she can be a greeter at the new Buckingham Walmart

By law, as a Briton I am a citizen, not a subject.

However, don't forget that your Head of State is also Queen Elizabeth II, so you may be, unlike the British, subjects.


According to Forbes she's worth at least £300 million. At least. She's a long way from being skint.

Nope. I'm a citizen.

Queen Elizabeth II is your Head of State. If I'm a subject then so are you.

However, by law I'm a citizen, not a subject. I just don't know how the law stands in Canada. You Canadians could be subjects, but we Britons aren't.

You are the one who claims to to be a subject.

I claim NOT to be a subject. Because I'm not.

I have no Monarch

Apart from Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. You may think that Canada is a boring republic, but then the reality is rather different.

and I'm not part of an Empire.

You're part of the British Empire. PC speak may deny that the Empire no longer exists and that Canada isn't a part of it, be we all secretly know that the opposite is true.

vas·sal

[vas-uh
l] Show IPA

noun 1. a person granted the use of land, in return for rendering homage, fealty, and usually military service or its equivalent to a lord or other superior; feudal tenant.

2. a person holding some similar relation to a superior; a subject, subordinate, follower, or retainer.

3. a servant or slave.



Servant or Slave Blackie rendering homage and fealty... That is exactly what you are


According to Forbes she's worth at least £300 million. At least. She's a long way from being skint.

The Commons Public Accounts Committee says different.

Say hello to Queen Christie... As she is also your better, you will be one of her vassals

Queenie should try reading a newspaper or two. Our papers are full of the real and perceived problems of the poor. And if the poor can't find a problem with their lives some social worker will invent one for them.
