The current line of succession to the English throne.

Queen Elizabeth II is the current monarch, having reigned for nearly seven decades. After the queen, her firstborn, Charles, Prince of Wales, will rule, followed by his firstborn, Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, and then his firstborn, Prince George.

Thank you Jim.

I should have said that in both countries I mentioned there has been a change in the Inheritance rules.

In Sweden it was the government and in Denmark it was through a referendum.

Before the rules said the first born male shall rule-Which meant if the first born was a girl she didn't have the right to it.

So that's why crown princess Victoria is the first in line to rule in Sweden.

UK goods exports to the European Union fell 40.7% in January, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS), while imports tumbled 28.8%.

Both imports from and exports to the EU fell "markedly" in January, the ONS said. The value of goods exported from the UK to the EU fell by £5.6bn in January 2021, while imports dropped by £6.6bn.

However, the ONS said data showed that things had begun to pick up. Firms were reporting that trade was getting easier and trade levels started to recover towards the end of the month.

Too bad not enough paid attention back then..
Surely there's a trawler man out there who would like to use Farage as an anchor.

Moonlight · 03-13-21, 05:09 PM

Why are you bringing up interviews from 16 May 2014, are you stuck in a bloody time warp or something, post some bloody news we don't know instead of dragging stuff up from over half a decade ago.

As for the trawlermen, they wanted Brexit and voted for Brexit so they can tie themselves to that bleeding anchor as well and then toss themselves off at the same time as Nigel.

They can't go shifting the blame on to someone who got them what they wanted and what they voted for so if there is anyone at fault here it is Boris Johnson and his Brexit negotiators.

Catfish · 03-13-21, 05:17 PM

I guess Boris was alreday born when the pro and cons were discussed, hardly possible for him not to notice

I remember he was anti-brexit back then.
Of course back then he could not expect to become pm and have to sort out the mess, but if i look at what he did then, yep, blame him.
Why did i bring up this?
Why does Jim post russian propaganda vids all the time?
Why isn't the moon made of green cheese?
Why am i even here?

What it means to be British,

let me think

is it "because we can post internet images correctly" or maybe not,

your image link is an mp4 and not a gif, that's why it isn't working.

Ouch.

Sarah Everard vigil and Political Correctness Gone Mad.

This was a time for the mourners to remember that this young ladies life was taken away from her by apparently but not yet convicted serving police officer. The police had the opportunity to have a massive Public Relations Propaganda hit on their hands by handing out free masks to anyone who hadn't got one. As usual the top brass don't have the brains to see this for what it could have been and not for what happened, the scenes plastered all over the newspapers is a stark reminder of what is to come from these muppets.

MET Police chief Cressida Dick and her assistant Commissioner Helen Ball should be removed immediately from their positions as they've been promoted into a job that far exceeds their abilities, the Commissioner of the London Fire Brigade Danielle Amara Cotton was another one promoted for there gender and not their experience level and we all know what happened at the Grenfell tower fire.

London mayor Sadiq Khan should fall on his sword too but he won't do, the useless bastard will never take any of the blame and that folks is why we're always going from one ****up to another, the real culprits are the Lefty Woke pillocks who are promoting the likes of Dick, Ball and Cotton, into positions that they can't handle.

Bloody hell!, Dick, Ball and Cotton?, there's a massive joke there somewhere, we're only missing the kitchen sink and we would have had a Full House.

^ yes the "picture is not working" because there is an "mp4" ending at the end of the external link. Congrats!

re "The Sun" = "where the misled go to get misinformed"

There was no way to kill the fire because the type of highly inflammable insulation was used, so blame the firefighters? Blame the mayor? Or blame your company-friendly politics that do not care for people?

The main impression I get from the Tories regarding the SNP seems to be waiting for the Nats to implode and hoping that SLab makes a comeback in Scotland whilst also tacitly supporting any anti-SNP movement.

Are the SNP going to get a majority in May's Holyrood election? Probably - I wouldn't give the polls much credance at the moment but based on observation once Glasgow and the surrounding areas start voting for a particular party they do so mindlessly until another lot promising "bread and circuses" comes along.

As the Clyde Valley conurbation contains 40% of Scotland's population any political party that hopes to control Scotland has to control that area.
