Ally Bongo Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Just imagine you or someone you know has a lump and the biopsy is scheduled for Monday It will now be cancelled and another date will be allocated It is highly possible that delay in getting the biopsy could be the difference in surviving 5 years or 20 if the lump isnt benign. Surely they have shot their bolt and it will work against them ITV have confirmed that ITV 1, ITV2, ITV3 and ITV4 will all broadcast the funeral throughout the day BBC havent said anything but i would imagine it will be on all their channels too and their Radio stations all moved to Radio 4 Maybe you will get arrested if you dont watch it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has everything else on the entire planet stooped just because she died? I don't expect North Korea style propaganda for days on end. I think the weather even stopped for a couple of days. How tae fuk did they do that? "There will be no weather anywhere because the Queen is dead" It was a great example when Kim Snr died. Stadiums full of people crying like fuck but God help you if you were dry eyed or faking it. What this proves seeing the UK version is that 95% (made-up stat) of the Koreans in that stadium crying actually believed the bullshit they were crying over. No different. edit: propaganda works that is why they do it. Edited September 14, 2022 by thplinth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They simply recognise that these are events of major significance. If the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace brings along spectators to view the spectacle, the changing of the monarch brings them along in spades. They want to be able to say: “I was there.

Then in the evening, I'm going to pack for Glasgow/Krakow with a couple of beers and some Scottish tunes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
