Llyn Celyn - Wales - Free Wales Army
Llyn Celyn is a large reservoir constructed between 1960 and 1965 in the valley of the River Tryweryn in Gwynedd, North Wales. It measures roughly 2 and a half miles long by a mile wide, and has a maximum depth of 140 ft (43 m). It has the capacity to hold 71,200 megalitres of water.
The Tryweryn Bill was passed by Parliament on 1 August 1957. This was a private measure, sponsored by Liverpool City Council and passed by Harold Macmillan's Conservative government, with the support of Henry Brooke, the Minister for Welsh Affairs. The measure allowed for the compulsory purchase of land to build the reservoir. The scheme was opposed by most of the Welsh Members of Parliament, but they were powerless to stop the development because the government was determined to push the Bill through Parliament. The local authorities did not have a voice in the decision either and this caused great resentment.The political parties in Wales were united in their opposition to the scheme because it was considered an affront to Wales that valuable resources were being taken away from the country.
The agricultural value of the land was high compared to some land that could have been considered, and it was felt that other possibilities had not been given proper consideration. Also, there was a feeling of sadness because a community was being shattered and families who had lived in the area for generations were forced to leave their homes. The local inhabitants were determined to oppose the scheme to the bitter end, and demonstrations and petitions were organised. In 1956 the Tryweryn Defence Committee was formed and it included some of Wales' most prominent and revered personalities, including Ifan ab Owen Edwards, Megan Lloyd George, T. I. Ellis, and Lord Ogmore. Many other branches of the committee were formed, including the Capel Celyn Defence Committee and the Liverpool branch of the Tryweryn Defence Committee.
Although opposition to the scheme did not come only from Welsh nationalists, the Tryweryn cause inspired Plaid Cymru, and provided an impetus to its campaigns. In September 1956 Plaid Cymru held a Save Tryweryn Rally in Bala, leading a procession of protesters through the centre of Bala. The Lord Mayor of Cardiff, Alderman J. H. Morgan, called a Save Tryweryn meeting in October 1956, when over 300 representatives from local government and trade unions, and 10 MPs were present. Alderman Huw T Edwards was appointed the chairman and it was decided to send a delegation from the conference to Liverpool to appeal for a change of heart. Mr D R Grenfell MP, the Lord Mayor of Cardiff, Huw T Edwards , Councillor Emrys Owen and Dr R Robinson were chosen to represent the meeting. In November 1956 a procession, led by Gwynfor Evans and including 70 of the villagers, was held in Liverpool to oppose the reservoir, but the Liverpool councillors voted to go ahead with the proposed scheme. In August 1957 Gwynfor Evans proposed that Meirionnydd County Council could build a reservoir in Cwm Croes, where only one farm would be affected, and sell the water from the reservoir to Liverpool Corporation.
On three occasions between 1962 and 1963 there were attempts to sabotage the building of the reservoir. On 10 February 1963 a transmitter exploded on the site and an Aberystwyth student, Emyr Llywelyn Jones, was sentenced to prison for twelve months for his part in the act. When he was sentenced, two members of 'MAC' (Mudiad Amddiffyn Cymru), Owain Williams and John Albert Jones, blew up a pylon at Gellilydan. The scheme went ahead despite public opposition, and Celyn lake was officially opened on 28 October 1965. New roads had to be built since the road from Bala to Ffestiniog was drowned, and the total cost of the project was £20 million. Celyn lake held a capacity of 71,200 mega litres of water, the biggest dam in Wales. There is a memorial on the side of the lake and a memorial garden, and the grave stones from Capel Celyn cemetery have been moved there. At the opening ceremony, where the Lord Mayor of Liverpool was present, a protest was held which included the appearance in military uniforms of the Free Wales Army. A recruiting campaign by the Free Wales Army (FWA) had started in 1963, but the Tryweryn protest was the first occasion where members had appeared in a public protest. Pictures of the FWA during an arms drill were later released, but there was no evidence to suggest that they were actively involved in violent activities. In 1969 the ringleaders were arrested and six of them, including the leader Julian Cayo Evans, were sentenced to fifteen months imprisonment.

Movement for the Defence of Wales
Mudiad Amddiffyn Cymru - Movement for the Defence of Wales
MAC was a Welsh Nationalist group that committed arson attacks in the early sixties.
The group's origins were in protests against the 1963 flooding of a Welsh village to create the Tryweryn reservoir to provide water for Liverpool. The group was reformed in 1967 by leader John Jenkins, this time protesting the investiture of the Prince of Wales with an organised bombing campaign.The group planned to launch a bomb attack on the day of the investiture, 1 July 1969, apparently targeting the railway on which the royal train would be travelling. The plan went badly wrong and the bomb detonated at some council offices in Abergele, killing two men. The victims, Alwyn Jones and George Taylor, were generally assumed to have been planting the bomb, although Taylor's daughter has argued that her father may have been trying to prevent the attack. The group also planted a bomb at Llandudno pier in an attempt to prevent Royal Yacht Britannia from docking, although it did not go off. Jenkins was arrested in 1969 and the group was dissolved.

Fe Godwn Ni Eto - Tiocfaidh Ár Lá
The Free Wales Army (Welsh: Byddin Rhyddid Cymru) was a paramilitary Welsh nationalist organisation, formed in Lampeter, Mid Wales, by William Julian Cayo-Evans in 1963. Its objective was to establish an independent Welsh republic.
The Byddin Rhyddid Cymru first appeared in public at a 1965 protest against the construction of the Llyn Celyn reservoir. In 1966 they took part in Irish celebrations of the 50th anniversary of the Easter Rising, marching in Dublin. A 1967 interview with David Frost brought the group to the attention of a wider audience. The group courted publicity, and its leaders attracted a great deal of media attention with extravagant claims of financial support from millionaires, links with the IRA and ETA - Basque Freedom Fighters, dogs trained to carry explosives, etc. Members wore home-made uniforms and marched in historic sites like Machynlleth, as well as carrying out manoeuvres with small arms and explosives in the Welsh countryside and claiming responsibility for many of Mudiad Amddiffyn Cymru's bombings. They also advocated for families of victims of the Aberfan disaster whose compensation claims were being blocked, "marching on their behalf and working behind the scenes for them"
The group was generally not taken seriously by the media, and one government memo warned against "taking the organisation's activities too seriously," saying this "would give to it an unmerited importance and publicity which its leaders are plainly seeking" However, against a backdrop of Welsh nationalist bombings and protests against the investiture of Prince Charles as Prince of Wales the FWA presented an appealing target to the government, and in 1969 nine members were arrested and charged with public order offences. The trial, in Swansea, lasted 53 days, ending on the day of the investiture. On the first day of the trial the defendants were "greeted with an impromptu recital of Land of My Fathers from the public gallery." Almost all of the prosecution's evidence came from journalists who had reported the group's claims. Evans, his second-in-command, Dennis Coslett (who refused to speak English throughout the trial), and four other members were convicted; Evans and Coslett spent 15 months in jail.
The Army's motto was "Fe godwn ni eto," Welsh for "We will rise again." Its crest was Eryr Wen, a white eagle mounted on dark green shield, commonly seen in shorthand, with the flag of Wales on the top left hand corner.
The FWA was rumoured to have received arms from the Official IRA, although Evans later denied this. In Ireland, one rumour—used against the Official IRA by its rivals within Irish Republicanism, was that the Official IRA had given or sold most of its weapons to the FWA as part of its turn away from political violence, leaving it defenceless when intercommunal violence erupted in North of Ireland in August 1969. Scott Millar, co-author of a history of the Official IRA, writes that there was contact between the two groups (including FWA members training in Ireland) but no large-scale transfer of arms took place.

Irish Holocaust- Push to Educate the Facts
"According to Public Health Chronicles the hospital often treated up to 8,000 patients per year and in an effort to curtail the dangerous spread of disease they simply carried the dead from their beds to the grave. No death certificates were issued and no burial records were kept.
Their bodies were placed in trenches throughout the cemetery, near the hospital and also all the way up the hill on the 30 acre property, now stretching towards the Silver Lake Golf Course.
Lynn Rogers, executive director of the Friends of Abandoned Cemeteries of Staten Island (FACSI) said, “This facility simply couldn’t handle the volume of people dying. They also had 1850s mass emigration from Germany so the facility got slammed.”
Jennifer Hyatt-Morgan, a FACSI volunteer, transcribed the facility’s mortality schedule during an eight month period, selecting only the Irish. During that short period 650 died, according to the records.
Rogers said, “There’s two cemeteries. There’s the one that became the parking lot and there’s another one that today is a huge golf course and that’s where they buried the majority of them. There absolutely is thousands of bodies there.
“The reason they made the cemetery into a golf course in the 1920s /1930s is because there are just too many remains in there. There must be tens of thousands.”http://irishhungercomm.wordpress.com/2013/05/24/thousands-of-great-hunger-victims-who-died-in-staten-island-quarantine-remembered/

Erin Go Bragh
This flag has long been known as a flag representing Irish Pride. The words "Erin Go Bragh" or "Erin Go Braugh" is translated from Irish as "Forever Ireland." The flag was also used in the Mexican-American war by St. Patrick's Battalion, a battalion of Mexican soldiers and Irish and German immigrants to America, who joined with the Mexicans to fight. While there is no exact account of the flag flown, it is said to have had the Irish Harp with the words "Erin Go Bragh" underneath and on the other side of the flag St. Patrick. The Irish and Germans who fought with the Mexicans were considered traitors by the American's at the time and hero's by the Mexicans, who saw them as Catholics assisting other Catholics in need.
Today, the flag remains a symbol of Irish pride and is flown all over the world to represent the connection or link back to Ireland.

Cornish nationalism - Kernow Bys Vyken!!!!!!
Cornish nationalism is a term that refers to a cultural, political and social movement based in Cornwall (Cornish; Kernow), which has been administered as part of England, within the United Kingdom, but had never been formally incorporated into England via an Act of Union. It is usually based on three general arguments.....
a) That Cornwall has a Celtic cultural identity separate from that of England, and that the Cornish people have a national, civic or ethnic identity separate from that of English people;
b) That Cornwall should be granted a degree of devolution or autonomy, usually in the form of a Cornish national assembly;
c) And that Cornwall is legally a territorial and constitutional Duchy with the right to veto Westminster legislation, not merely a county of England, and has never been formally incorporated into England via an Act of Union

I (Penny)
I (Penny) speak to the Irish Republicans i know, Irish men and woman, my friends, who live in England, and those i speak to on Facebook daily, and indeed comment on ERUI, the Republican movement seems very progressive, and does change with the times, and in contrast to that the basics of the Loyalist that are very out of date, fill with Hatred, bigotry, and does not Represent the people of the rest of the "British" isles what so ever, even though the Loyalist believes that that England supports them, and they honour England with the Loyalist show of "Britishness", apart from the far Right, the average Englishman/woman has moved with the times, its no longer about "Queen & Empire", we dont line our streets with Union Flags or St Georges Cross (sorting evens are an exception) When i've see streets in Belfast and all the Union flags everywhere, it reminds me of when i was young, and my walls were covered in Take That posers, i loved them but did they ever love me back?... if they had seen my room, they may have said i was a "saddo"?, especially at the age of 21
The average English person is more Interested in the arrival of the "Royal Baby" because of the media hype and the "celebrity" status of the Royal Family at the moment, the Royals are celebrities... Who really would "Bow" to these people any more, who would "Bow" to anyone? are we not all equal? They are celebrities now that is all, not people to be worshipped because of past glories, imperialist conquests, and an "Nobel" bloodline. England is a country obsessed with Big Brother and that Jungle program, X-Factor and Britains Got Talent, the queen's Jubilee and the Olympics put the Royals in the big frame once again (the TV frame) as soon as nothing interesting happens with them for a while, No scandals, No Weddings, No one will care any more, the average Joe or Jane, will only be worried with who will win X-Factor 2014...
Just note, im not saying all English are brainless and just watch TV all day, i mean the people that say "i love the Queen", does not love the Queen for the same reason the average Loyalist does... Would a Loyalist jump in-front of a bullet to protect "Her Highness"? Would Dave from down the road who's having a pint in the "Black Bull Pub" in East London do the same? maybe he would(?) as its a human instinct to protect others... but would he do it out of pure love and respect for "Her Highness"? WOULD BE FUCK!!!! "I am a Citizen, not a Subject"
For a lot of the English now its about Moving forward, Equality, Freedom, Dignity, Education and Expecting other cultures, religions and people, we are an multicultural society now, some grudgingly expect that (Centre-Left), others embrace that (the Left), but its not about who country is the most powerful, who owns most of the world's resources and lands...
Im talking about citizens here, not the Westminster, but thats a whole other story/rant... Our current government got in on a sham of an election...
Not hanging onto a shell of an Empire... Sometimes i think we are living half in the modern world, and half in the dark ages... BNP-NF, OO-UVF, EDL-and the so called WelshDL(?), UKIP, and even the Tories, do NOT represent the average person in this country and the countries of these isles....
Anyway, Ireland remember we stand beside you! Loyalist just who are you loyal to?
Thank you *Penny

They are celebrities now that is all, not people to be worshipped because of past glories, imperialist conquests, and an "Nobel" bloodline. England is a country obsessed with Big Brother and that Jungle program, X-Factor and Britains Got Talent, the queen's Jubilee and the Olympics put the Royals in the big frame once again (the TV frame) as soon as nothing interesting happens with them for a while, No scandals, No Weddings, No one will care any more, the average Joe or Jane, will only be worried with who will win X-Factor 2014...
Just note, im not saying all English are brainless and just watch TV all day, i mean the people that say "i love the Queen", does not love the Queen for the same reason the average Loyalist does... Would a Loyalist jump in-front of a bullet to protect "Her Highness"? Would Dave from down the road who's having a pint in the "Black Bull Pub" in East London do the same? maybe he would(?) as its a human instinct to protect others... but would he do it out of pure love and respect for "Her Highness"? WOULD BE FUCK!!!! "I am a Citizen, not a Subject"
For a lot of the English now its about Moving forward, Equality, Freedom, Dignity, Education and Expecting other cultures, religions and people, we are an multicultural society now, some grudgingly expect that (Centre-Left), others embrace that (the Left), but its not about who country is the most powerful, who owns most of the world's resources and lands...
Im talking about citizens here, not the Westminster, but thats a whole other story/rant... Our current government got in on a sham of an election...
Not hanging onto a shell of an Empire... Sometimes i think we are living half in the modern world, and half in the dark ages... BNP-NF, OO-UVF, EDL-and the so called WelshDL(?), UKIP, and even the Tories, do NOT represent the average person in this country and the countries of these isles....
Anyway, Ireland remember we stand beside you! Loyalist just who are you loyal to?
Thank you *Penny
EDUCATE, Don't CRITICISE
I do not pretend to know it all, I am English after all Living in England i am a long way from Ireland and indeed the issues in the North.... But i do hope i come across as an Educated commenter on Republican politics, and not just a Englishman who "Knows shit-all about the troubles and stuff" I will also listen to Criticism, and pay attention if i have said something wrong or offensive, and need correcting.... I've always been a big believer in "EDUCATE, Don't CRITICISE" if someone doesn't know something, teach them! *dan
Nova Scotia
Nova Scotia, Canada
The flag of Nova Scotia, created in 1858, is a banner of the coat of arms of Nova Scotia, which were granted to the Scottish colony by Charles I, in 1625. The flag of the modern Canadian province, a blue saltire on a white field, is a simple figure-ground reversal of the flag of Scotland, a white saltire, Saint Andrew's cross, on a blue field, charged with the arms of Scotland, a gold shield with a red lion rampant surrounded by a double border decorated with fleurs de lis). The arms do not appear on Scotland's flag - they were added to Nova Scotia's to distinguish the flag from the Naval Ensign of Russia which is also a blue saltire on a white field.

Starry Plough
The Starry Plough banner was originally used by the Irish Citizen Army, a socialist, Republican movement. James Connolly, co-founder of the Irish Citizen Army with Jack White, said the significance of the banner was that a free Ireland would control its own destiny from the plough to the stars. The original Starry plough was unveiled in 1914 and flown by the Irish Citizen Army during the 1916 Easter Rising. The flag depicts the constellation of Ursa Major, known as The Plough in Ireland and "Great Britain", or in the US, the Big Dipper. http://www.angelfire.com/space/derryirsp/flaghistory.htm *James
Y Wladfa
Y Wladfa, the Welsh Colony in Patagonia, was established in 1865, when over 150 people from various parts of Wales sailed on the Mimosa to settle in the Chubut Valley, in Southern Argentina. Over the following fifty years, hundreds of Welsh people emigrated there, establishing towns such as Porth Madryn in the New Bay; Rawson, Gaiman, Trelew and Dolavon in the valley; and Trevelin in Cwm Hyfryd. Many of their descendants also live in Esquel, at the foot of the Andes; in Comodoro Rivadavia (the largest town in the province); in Colonia Sarmiento - and many other provinces throughout Argentina. They created thriving Welsh communities, in which the Welsh language was prominent; in cooperation with the Argentine Government, and in peaceful co-existence with the native population - the only example of non-violent colonisation in the history of the American continent
Breton nationalism
BRITTANY IS NOT FRANCE
Breton nationalism is the nationalism of the traditional province of Brittany in France. Brittany is considered to be one of the six Celtic nations (along with Cornwall, Ireland, Wales, the Isle of Man and Scotland). Like the nationalism of many neighbouring regions, Breton nationalism combines political as well as cultural aspects. The political aspirations of Breton nationalists include the desire to obtain the right to self-rule, whether within France or independently of it, and to acquire more power in the European Union, United Nations and other international institutions. Cultural nationalists also seek a reinvigoration of Breton music, traditions and symbols, and the forging of strong links with other Celtic nations. The French government's official position is to consider Brittany as a part of France, a position claimed to date from the time when the March of Neustria was controlled by Roland, but dating officially from the dynastic marriage in 1491 of Anne, Duchess of Brittany with the king of France. This could include a range of views, from allowing Brittany a devolved government to curbing wishes for independence.

FREEDOM FOR CELTIC MANN - ELLAN VANNIN DY BRAGH
Its sad to say but a lot of English seem to think the Isle of Man (Manx; Ellan Vannin) is part of the "United Kingdom" or some say "England"... it has never been part of the UK, however it is ruled (owned) by The English Crown...
"The Isle of Man otherwise known simply as Mann, is a self-governing "British Crown" Dependency, located in the Irish Sea between the islands of Great Britain and Ireland. The head of state is Queen Elizabeth II, who holds the title of Lord of Mann. After a period of alternating rule by the kings of Scotland and England, the island came under the feudal lordship of the English Crown in 1399. The lordship revested into the British Crown in 1764, but the island never became part of the kingdom of the UK"

British disinterest in Northern Ireland is often explicit.
British disinterest in Northern Ireland is often explicit.
For example, the Conservative secretary of state for Northern Ireland, Sir Patrick Mayhew stated in a speech in Coleraine in December 1992 that although the British government would respect the wishes of the majority the aspiration to a united Ireland was 'no less legitimate' than that of Unionists to be part of Britain.
Later on he said that Britain had no economic or strategic interest in Northern Ireland, repeating this a few months later in an interview with "Die Zeit" when he actually declared that Britain would leave the province 'with pleasure' - although he later took back the 'pleasure'.

ABOUT US
English Republicans for a United Ireland II
would like to say;
We sometimes get things wrong, or use the wrong words... please have some patience with us We are English Republicans, we did not grow up in Ireland, we did not learn all the histories from a young age, nothing was mentioned in schools, or on the TV, in fact we all grew up hearing jokes mocking the Irish, and our folks telling us how amazing Britain is, and how we need to respect the Royals, because they are somehow "Special", and how the British Empire "civilised" the world, with no mention of murder and killing, just "Tea" Companies and trade... [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOhXpmozpbE ]
As we grew up and become adults, we started to form opinions of our own, we learnt right from wrong & saw this "British State" in not the same rose tinted glasses our parents did...
We support a United Ireland, and Independence for the countries that make up this outdated "Union" ... but we never pretend to know it all how can we, we are English. If we make a mistake, please correct us, if we say something that is offensive, we apologise... remember we are always learning
Our posts are never going to be worded as if we are Irish Republicans, because we are not, We learn from talking to people, and knowing people who have protested for freedoms denied by the English(British) state/crown... Be that, the Irish man down the local Pub, or a family member who was born and grew up in Dublin.
As we have always said "EDUCATE don't CRITICISE"

We also support the Palestinians plight, and Independence movements around the world....
and to those Loylists who call me a "traitor" to ENGLAND... i am not traitor, i am English, England has moved on with the times, "Traitor", no i represent the decent people of my country of birth. You are seeing England through 50 year old specks.

This is not what it is to be Protestant, smashing up the towm, burning out cars, attacking people, In England you would be called "Scumbags" and rightly so... what's Protestant about this????

It is sometimes known on the island simply as "patois" it has its roots in Latin, but had strong influence from both Norse and English at different points in its history

JERSEY
JERSEY does not belong to The Crown
Jèrriais is the form of the Norman language spoken in Jersey, in the Channel Islands, off the coast of France. It has been in decline over the past century as English has increasingly become the language of education, commerce and administration. There are very few people who speak Jèrriais as a mother tongue.

RED HAND OF ULSTER
RED HAND OF ULSTER
THE ONLY FLAG OF ULSTER is the Ulster Province Flag
The Flag of Ulster is a historic banner used to represent Ulster, one of the four provinces of Ireland (Leinster, Ulster, Munster and Connacht). The Red Hand of Ulster is a symbol derived from the O'Neill dynasty who were historic monarchs of the provincial kingdom, while the gold background featuring a red cross comes from the coat of arms of the Burkes, a Hiberno-Norman noble family, Yes Ireland had Royalty.
The legend states; the Red Hand of Ulster reputedly dates to the arrival of Heremon, Heber and Ir - sons of King Milesius of Galicia (currently occupied by the Kingdom of Spain), who were dispatched to conquer Ireland in 504 BC. One of them supposedly cut off his hand and tossed it ashore, that he might be the one to have first claim to the land. There is another story about the hand belonging to one of two giants engaged in battle, whose hand was cut off in the process and left a red imprint on the rocks. A third story recounts how Uí Néill and a man named Dermott both wished to be king of Ulster. The High King suggested a horse race across the land. As the two came in sight of the ending point, it seemed that Dermott would win, so Uí Néill cut his hand off and threw it. It reached the goal ahead of Dermott's horse, winning for Uí Néill the crown of Ulster. Ultimately the story derives from Celtic mythology of the Silver Hand of Lir.
THE ULSTER BANNER is a hate symbol of British dominion in the north
The red hand is also used for the "Ulster Banner" the flag flown by Loyalists in the North, to represent the 6 occupied counties of "Northern Ireland" (the province of Ulster has 9 counties, 3 of which are in the South [Rep of Ireland]). The Ulster Banner or the Red Hand of Ulster flag was the flag of the Government of Northern Ireland between 1953 and 1972. Since that government was abolished in 1972, the flag has become a symbol of Ulster loyalism, frequently used as a hate symbol, and flown to show "British" dominion in the North, and is not permitted to be flown from government buildings, this saw a rise in use of the Union Flag (Jack). The flag is a heraldic banner taken from the coat of arms granted in 1924 which is based on the flag of England (St George's Cross) and the flag of Ulster, with the addition of a crown to symbolise the loyalty of Ulster unionists to the English Royal Family. As with the flag of Ulster, it contains the Red Hand of Ulster at the centre. The six pointed star represents the six occupied counties that make up "Northern Ireland"

QE2 - Years on the Throne
"The number of states headed by Queen Elizabeth II has varied during her 61 years on the throne, altogether seeing her as head of state of a total of thirty-two independent countries during this period. The 16 that presently have her as sovereign, known as Commonwealth realms, are shown in light green, while the remainder show in dark green the reign of Elizabeth II as their monarch, from their independence until their adoption of
a republican form of government.
In her capacity as Queen of the United Kingdom (including the British overseas territories), she has also been monarch of three Crown Dependencies, Guernsey, Jersey, and Mann, since her accession in 1952. In her capacity as Queen of New Zealand, she has also been monarch of two associated states: the Cook Islands and Niue, since they acquired this status in 1965 and 1974, respectively.
The government of the unrecognised state of Rhodesia proclaimed its allegiance to Elizabeth II as queen of Rhodesia from 1965 to 1970. However, she did not accept either the role or the title and it was not accepted or recognized by any other state.
Fiji is a unique case. The country became a republic through a military coup in 1987, after which its Great Council of Chiefs continued to recognise Elizabeth II as queen, or Paramount Chief, until the council's de-establishment on 14 March 2012. However, this was only a ceremonial title, with no role in government at all"

a republican form of government.
In her capacity as Queen of the United Kingdom (including the British overseas territories), she has also been monarch of three Crown Dependencies, Guernsey, Jersey, and Mann, since her accession in 1952.

Smash the Fash
The people of England are ready to Smash the Fash once again... We didnt want you before, we do not want you now! DOWN WITH THE BNPNFEDLKKK
!GOD SAVE THE QUEEN!
!GOD SAVE THE QUEEN! I hear the Loyalist cry!! (well its normally just GSTQ)
BUT WHAT DOES she do?? Well, not a lot for a nice wage of £40million a year, this is from OUR tax, not profits from her properties and businesses [and she has just been granted a pay-rise] and that doesn't include the rest of her "Special" family.
The Queen of England as a Monarch and the Head of State receives around £40 million a year, that's for her, not for them all, and the money goes towards a number of resources which enable "Her Majesty" to carry out her official duties. These include: Royal travel for official engagements (The Royal Gold carriage maybe?) in the country and overseas; fly to Canada to cut a ribbon on a new School, now schools are important, but they could of build another class room with the money spent on getting the Queen from palace to Canada, on private Jet, she doesnt fly Ryanair. the maintenance of Royal residences used for formal entertaining and ceremonial events, i wonder if the gardeners get a million a year? more like £18000(?)
Below is From the Official Royal website (Web-master? must be Queeny herself?)
"Members of the Royal Family support The Queen in her many State and national duties, as well as carrying out important work in the areas of public and charitable service, and helping to strengthen national unity and stability. Those who undertake official duties are members of The Queen's close family: her children and their spouses, and The Queen's cousins (the children of King George VI's brothers) and their spouses. Younger members of the Royal Family who are presently in education or military training - such as Prince William and Prince Harry - do not undertake official duties full-time, but often play a role in important national events and commemorations. Every year the Royal Family as a whole carries out over 2,000 official engagements throughout the UK and worldwide
The huge range of these organisations - covering every subject from education to the environment, hospitals to housing - allows members of the Royal Family to meet people from a wide spectrum of national and local life, and to understand their interests, problems and concerns. 2,000: the number of official engagements carried out by the Royal Family each year in the UK and overseas. 70,000: the number of people entertained each year to dinners, lunches, receptions and garden parties at the Royal residences. 100,000: the number of letters received and answered each year by the Royal Family."
Its time this out of date relic of the dark ages was abolished
