Peter of England and WeaRe not a Bank

We need a name for this system.

There is already a name for it: tyranny.

Remember this is an audience that believes a parliamentary democracy is a fascist dictatorship so they want to replace it by a moronocracy led by their gurus who will execute non-believers for their treason.

They're all for tyranny just as long as it's them doing tyrannying.

Someone on his youtube comments declared that they should "Throw X in Guantanamo immediately, without trial!" (can't remember who X was, George Sorros or whoever" to which PoE vehemently agreed.

I asked them both if they were in favour of state oppression, then.

3. Free healthcare for all
4. Free accomodation and basic Income for all - Non Means Tested
...
5. All Ex military will be given medical services, food and accomodation FREE
[snip]

But wait.... doesn't he consider Ex military to be a part of "for all"???

Ahh - he must mean some Ex-Pats. British Citizens who used to be Military who live outside the U.K. Awful nice of him to pay for medical and housing expenses in foreign Countries. Some of those Countries have what I would consider insanely high medical costs for minor services.... woe be to those who need more serious medical services.

Note that only "Ex military" get free food. The rest of us will presumably have to fight them for it...

[notorial dissent]

What I want to know is where the "free" food and homes is going to come from.

I remember John Harris had plans to be a "benign dictator". That didn't end well.

Didn't he top himself?

Yep, after renouncing his fmotl beliefs and saying it had ruined his life and cost his relationship with his family.

TIME FOR YOU ALL TO MAN UP - GRAB A BANNER AND GET ONTO THE STREET....I will lead, show and direct you as best I can towards a more greener and more pleasant land.

Well that’s a “movement” doomed to fail before it even gets started then. And quite a move upwards in his ambitions, revolutionary leader being a bit higher in the pay grades than sole proprietor of the “weRe a Real Bank, honest (NO RES PLEASE, we only accept worthless Pounds Sterling as payment)”.

Though unlike PoE’s usual schemes scams, at first sight this one doesn’t seem to offer him much in the way of an immediate income. Not until he’s elevated to the post of the grateful nation’s Great Leader at any rate. And not a Re in sight.

Actually, this could be made into something workable on a naïve Marxist basis.

As a French T-shirt design that was around in the 80s put it, “Je suis Marxiste, tendancé Groucho”.

We need a name for this system. Perhaps "English Socialism"?

Unfortunately that term’s already been taken, it’s associated with the Diggers, Methodist and other Christian socialist theorists and movements, the Levellers and others far more significant than PoE will ever be or could ever be.

Maybe we might adopt part of the title of one of Lenin’s works “an infantile disorder”?

I watched two and a half minutes of it. Is this a record?

[MaritalArtist]

That's more of an audience than he got on the day.

That's it folks, the game is officially up. The Royals are off!

Even the Vancouver Sun, my local paper, had the article about an emergency exit for the Queen in the event of rioting so it must be true! Maybe she'll come and live here, she's our Monarch too. Fine by me as long as you Brits still pay for her upkeep. It's not like she's a stranger. She's been here 20 times between 1951 and 2000 not counting 9 stopovers to refuel. But I fear that POE is a bit shaky on his understanding of abdication. He says the Queen abdicates if she "quits" her palace and leaves Britain "for any reason". I would assume, based on this, that she has abdicated thousands of times in the past 66 years of her reign. Every time she goes out to cut a ribbon in Wigan, opens parliament or whatever she does as part of her official duties or in her numerous overseas visits she has, in Peter's understanding, abdicated. But don't fear British monarchists, there's a legitimate King waiting in the wings to take over!

The royal family of england are illegitimate they have no royal bloodline even king henry has no royal blood the real king of england is Michael hastings of Australia look it up it must be sad to think your noble and to find out ur a common peasant lol

My boots on the ground estimate of the mood of the population regarding Brexit is boredom and indifference. I suspect that any people appearing to care about it are 'the usual suspects' who would demonstrate in favour of abolishing Tuesday if asked. Besides, it's not the rioting season, it's no fun without the sun.

I'm sick of hearing about it. One thing's for sure, whatever the outcome deal/no deal/no brexit/2nd referendum, this whole country is going to be divided by it for a generation.

That's complete bollocks... But then it was Poe saying it so no surprises there. I'm pretty sure that not only can a British monarch not abdicate 'accidentally' they can't even do it intentionally without the consent of parliament.

[notorial dissent]

PoE is at least consistent, he knows as much about Monarchy, abdication, and law in general as he does about finance.

FWIW, my guess for her sekrit stash space is Snadringham. Its out of London, but still close, its not Windsor which would be too obvious and its The Queen's personal property, not a Crown Estate. I would normally guess Balmoral, because how large it is, but I think there are important symbolic and political reasons for her not to leave England were she to go anywhere.

So take that PoE, she's still gonna be the Queen.
