colinneil Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Whilst i am away my pal Ole Fatty will be chairman in my place, a suitable recliner is being installed for him, so he can have a much deserved nap during the proceedings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
londonthai Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 I hope this ceremony won't last for 4 days, won't cost taxpayer billion baht and civil servants, police and soldiers won't be bussed in to line the streets for the motorcade. so what prayuth is going to do in tokyo for the rest 3.5 days? a shopping spree for wifie and her entourage of noble women?

Our queen is not "shut away" from the public, resides in the UK and takes an active interest in the lives of ordinary people. She is a figurehead and as such provides some form of stability to the Nation which an elected President would not! I believe that UK has a true constitutional monarchy which works well in these turbulent times.

I'm an American, but I must say my best friends here in Thailand are Brits. From what I've seen your queen is a very nice old lady (no disrespect intended), and while not considered divine, has "royal" blood, which automatically makes her better than you or I am. What will you say when her bat-eared, chinless son becomes your figurehead (I got bat-eared and chinless from a Brit)? I just don't think these things are necessary anymore. Peace brother.

I don't see why you need to insult Charles when he didn't ask to be the king in waiting. He just happened to be born to her. It's highly unlikely he will become king. That is more likely to go to William. IMO it's just that no one wants to say that as long as she is alive. IMO, they are not going to change all the currency just for the few years he will live after his mother passes away. She might even outlive him at this rate. Pity she didn't abdicate years ago and let him have it then, but she is apparently going to hang on till her last breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natway09 Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Now, here is a classic case in point, certainly he & his entourage should go & preferably fly Thai. Thai must raise an invoice & actually get paid by the "Office of the Prime Minister. Will this happen ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
