Vice-Regal Saint: Because It Irritates Our Elites
With our Queen receiving a very heartfelt Royal Welcome from bystanders and onlookers in the Old Dominion of Virginia, and having this violently upsetted with yet more talk north of the border from politicians making it their business to wax impatient on our supposedly outdated system, I suffered an epiphany of sorts. Why, why monarchy? Because with few exceptions, it irritates to no end our political, academic and journalistic elites, which must be as good a reason as any for holding onto our greatest and most sacred of traditions. Let laughing cavaliers and loyal subjects amuse themselves over their pathetic self-inflicted misery.
The Queen unveils a new statue on 18 May 2005 in Regina, Saskatchewan, which depicts her riding Burmese, a Royal Canadian Mounted Police musical ride horse given to Her Majesty as a gift over 25 years ago.

Quite right. Never have so many people been so consistently stupid about so many things. It is an infallible axiom that if the BBC are against something, all sensible patriots should be for it.
Just thought I that I would add that that picture captioned in this post was taken in Regina, capital of the Province of Saskatchewan, where it's so flat, one can watch their dog run away for three days!
I kid, I kid...
Regina, Saskatchewan, that's right. I think it must be the greatest equestrian statue of Her Majesty in the world, though the one on Parliament Hill in Ottawa comes close. The greatness of our Britannic civilisation is evident when you consider that our statues will never get torn down, even though it peeves our elites who make it their business to expunge monarchy from all sound and sight.
Quote of the day:
"I think she should be here for this occasion," said Frances H. Davis, honorary state president of the Virginia Society Colonial Dames XVII Century. "The birth of a nation saved our mother nation."
