2nd longest reigning monarch in the world at the moment, bout time she told Charlie boy to step aside to, and let young Willie and his pretty lass have a turn.
Its hardly an achievement to reign so long when the only two pieces of talent you require to do so is to be born and then just stay alive. Now, if she had won 12 x 5 year terms from free and democratic elections, without having the entire state funding her tenure-ship and the entire PR power of EVERY newspaper, TV station and media mogul behind her, now that would be absolutely remarkable and cause for real celebration. As it is, this utter farce of a 21st Century political and constitutional stage show is a mere mockery of the system. The concert last night mirrored well the Queen. Lots of old has beens who are well past their sell by date and should have been put out to pasture a long time ago. However, when they are wheeled out to perform we all cheer and wave flags and just turn a blind eye (and a deaf ear last night) to the fact they are an embarrassment to our great nation.
