One rule for the rich, another for the poor.I notice none of my orgasms made the news
It's a British class thing.Plus, one a year doesn't get you up in the rankings.
Bloody hell, an Australian head of state.I shudder to think who some people in Australia might think appropriate. No, I'll stick with our current tried & proven, unbroken system thanks.

Cars need ongoing maintenance to maintain functionality.Monarchies don't.
They do an awful lot of good and continual charity work around the world.

How much do they cost the taxpayer of the UK? Wasn't the Queen nearly broke a few years back? How can somebody run out of money that has their picture on it?I would rather that my Head of State was actually a citizen of this country (not dual citizen either), or at least lived here.Bring on the referendum!!!PS. Long live the Queen.

In various surveys where Australians have been asked to specify who they would prefer as their own Head of State should we become a republic, I have heard all sorts of stupid answers including Cathy Freeman, AFL football players, Kevin Rudd and Ernie Dingo.FFS.

Yes, the Award does great things for young people to inspire them. However, from my experience, this is directed at the already privileged youngsters.
