Princess Di

[Hate Is Art]

What's everyones opinions on Pri Di?

Personaly I can't stand her but its probably the best royal we have on account of dieing.

[Bolshevist]

I see no need for royalties. They are good at two things, creating gossip and using tax-money.

:lol: I can't see how anyone in the UK can stand the royals. They enjoys billions on the tax payers dime. Too bad all of them can't die in car accidents.

[Wiesty]

i personally think the UK should drop the whole Monarchy system, its just all for looks, the queen has no say in anything, she's just there.

Feudalism dropped out quite awhile ago, so did monarchy

[T_SP]

Everyone keeps bleating about what a 'great humanitarian' she was! Yeah right! The real people who care didn't even get a mention, the people who do it every day without batting an eyelid!

But in the words of an old friend she was a nice piece of ****!!!

[BOZG]

Her death made for some good jokes in my childhood. :)

Not exactly.


The queen must formally assent to all acts of Parliament before they can become laws.

She still has "ultimate power" in the UK.

Usually if a bill has passed through both the Commons and Lords, the queen will assent to it. The last time royal assent was not given to a bill passed throgh both houses was by Queen Anne in the early 1700s.

It rarely ever happens but the fact of the matter is that it could happen again.

[fuerzasocialista]

Didn't really care too much about that whole situation one way or the other. Never really quite understood the world's fascination with her especially after her death. I mean people were really obssessed with that shit. I was too young to remember the wedding between her and that dog faced prince but they always managed to stick her in the news somehow, someway.

[DaCuBaN]

I'm sorry to say this isn't true... They are entirely self sufficient and recieve no money out of the 'British Purse' - However they are flagrant capitalists, employing countless servants and owning practically as much land as the Catholic Church in the UK.


She still has "ultimate power" in the UK

Yes, and she still has control of the military too. <_<

[Roses in the Hospital]

The thing that winds me up about her is when people say things like "Well she was a commoner who took on the royals" or "But she did lots of good things for charity." Both statements are significantly undermined by the fact she was an aristocrat. She had far more money than she needed and spent her time between several stately homes. The real Di bears little or no ressemblance to the &#39;goddess&#39; the media have created with her image. As far as I&#39;m concerned she was as bad as the rest of them...

[praxis1966]

Hey, you guys leave All Tomorrow&#39;s Parties alone&#33;

Oh, wait a minute, wrong Princess Di. Nevermind.

[h&s]

Best car accident ever :D
Funny&#33;
By the way, has anyone seen that "fountain" dedicated to her memory?
£3,500,000 of our money wasted on a concrete trough with water trickling through it?
Sounds like a waste of money to me, and as for the princess herself, as a rule I can&#39;t stand anyone with a posh accent, so I hate her.

[EL Revolucionario]

A whore...but the way the car ended up was pretty cool.

[h&s]

And who was driving the Fiat that they found parts of?
It was a conspiracy to kill her&#33;

Actually the royals are not self sufficient. Millions of taxpayer&#39;s money goes to the royal family, keeping them in stately homes and countless servants. It was on the news the other day that Prince Andrew has spent millions of public money using private jets to fly him around Europe so he can play golf matches.

Personally I think the Royal family are of no use in society today. I think that a referendum should be held to see if the country actually wants them.

They are a huge waste of money, just look at that fountain thing they&#39;ve built for Diana. Why does she deserve a memorial and not all the other people who have died in car crashes? People may say it is because she did some charitable work but so do thousands of other people and they don&#39;t get any recognition.

[DaCuBaN]

The Royal Finances (http://www.royal.gov.uk/output/page308.asp)

She pays income tax, VAT and council tax. She doesn&#39;t get any money from taxes. Can it be much clearer? The only place we pay for anything is for her diplomatic duties and in the upkeep of the public buildings she owns... but then we&#39;re allowed to enter them all, free of charge...

Our objection to them must not be based on &#39;urban myths&#39; but simply on the fact that she&#39;s a capitalist. At any point she could stop paying taxes, and &#39;pull on the reins&#39;


Head of State expenditure is met from public funds in exchange for the surrender by The Queen of the revenue from the Crown Estate. In the financial year to 31 March 2003 the revenue surplus from the Crown Estate paid to the Treasury amounted to £170.8 million

[h&s]

Yes, but I think £350,000 of taxpayer&#39;s money towards Prince Andrew&#39;s helicopter transport to his friend&#39;s houses and golf courses last year isn&#39;t exactly a diplomatic expense.
And why should we pay for multi-million pound refits of palaces that, while not owned by them, they have the sole use of, when they are one of the richest families in the country?
So we don&#39;t directly pay them, but they manage to get our money off us just the same.

[DaCuBaN]

This isn&#39;t a fight I&#39;m willing to make: The last person who tried to &#39;defend&#39; the monarchy of the UK is still languishing in the OI :rolleyes:

Suffice to say they really do no harm, and are not a direct obstacle to achieving communism. Of course they wouldn&#39;t be able to remain as a monarch after the revolution, but given that they are in fact a bargain as far as diplomacy goes, I see no purpose in trying to &#39;abolish&#39; them before such an event.

I think £350,000 for £170,800,000 is a pretty good deal :lol:

Damn capitalist&#33;
[Joke&#33;]
I suppose you do have a point though.

[Wenty]

I would never wish anyone to die in a horrific car accident and shame on anyone who laughs at her death which must have been agonising.

Moreover, she married into the Royals and wasn&#39;t one herself before hand and afterwards she was stripped of her HRH title. She contributed greatly with her time and money and deserves our respect and commeration.

[Gen Arkan]

no one deserves death although sometimes we don&#39;t have time to try and convert them, and i agree with wenty she did good things

They can also claim any tract of land they wish as their own, with a few exceptions.

This doesn&#39;t come from the Royals themselves, but mostly from tourism associated with the Monarchy and the buildings they occupy.

[cubist]

its all bollocks and a waste of money i would have dug a trench for a tenner. what really pisses me off is that dianas memorial should be grande to represent want the people think of her not what diana thought of herself

[Hate Is Art]

if its what people though of her you could just but a toilet there and allow people to go for a shit in it.

I agree with this statement, but at the same time I can&#39;t understand the worlds fascination of her. She was just another person who married into royalty for the cash and fame. I don&#39;t blame her, she was just getting hers... It doesn&#39;t make me respect her though, like all these other assholes who waited fucking hours on the street to see the herse drive by. Seriously, she never caused anyone harm nor was she a fascist (like evita) so I have no negative thoughts of her...nor do I have good ones though...

Yeah I know, it drives me round the bend.

[Sabocat]

More importantly, where were all the cameras and media coverage for the working class that were killed at their jobs that day?

Death (http://www.cpwr.com/pulications/page%2034.pdf)


Somehow, because she could go visit poor, starving black children in Africa in a white frilly dress makes her worthy of public praise and admiration to the point of almost deification.

[Wenty]

Its because she was young, very well known the world over and did admirable things with her time. Do you expect a news report whenever Joe Public dies? Sometimes i get the impression some of the people on this board are too eager to rebel against anything that comes their way.

[DaCuBaN]

if its what people though of her you could just but a toilet there and allow people to go for a shit in it.

That&#39;s harsh.... To be honest you&#39;d be best to simply level the area and leave it that way... this way it would both represent the contents of her mind and what the public thought of her

ABSOLUTELY FUCK ALL&#33;

To be fair, she did do work for causes such as (I can&#39;t remember their name now) those that deal with land-mines, but she could only do this as a result of her priveleged status, and no doubt felt that she was &#39;whoring her name&#39; to them in a fashion.

Still, that concern is a minor one in the scale of things (though just as necessary) and she only received attention because it can directly be blamed on us - WE LAID THEM&#33;

It&#39;s amazing how much &#39;compassion&#39; can be brought through guilt <_< :angry:

[cubist]

i personally think dead people should be left dead they will be remembered by those who cared

What are you doing on che-lives then? :D

lmao, i care about che like i said dead people will be remembered by those who give a fuck, che doesn&#39;t need a memorial hes a ficking martyr

Yeah of course she did some good thingd, she din&#39;t have a damn thing else to do, she grew up in rich family and has everything handed to her during her entire life. I&#39;m not from the UK, but the royals make me sick. They don&#39;t ever have to do a damn thing, they are set for life and yet all they do is ***** about how difficult their lives are. I&#39;d like to see Prince William and Harry trade place with someone from the working class some day and actually have to earn a living.

[Vinny Rafarino]

I&#39;m disgusted by this outpouring of support for this ***** from "leftists" who use the "she did some good" rhetoric to cover up their aristocratic sympathies.

If this useless pile of stinking feces really wanted to impress me, how about giving up some of that 36 million dollar estate to all those poor black kids she visited long enough to get a few good glossies of her "slumming around with the help".

36 million reasons to have a piss on Diana&#39;s grave. (http://www.s-t.com/daily/03-98/03-03-98/a03wn020.htm)

dude, even though we hate her ideas and ways, she did do some good stuff like help the poor, dont get me wrong, i am a anarcho-commonwealthist, but come on show a little sympothy.

[Latin American Socialist]

sorry comrade RAF, but i simply dont laugh at peoples deaths.

[Guerrilla22]

Fuck diana and fuck the royals, I have no symphathy for someone that gets into a car with a drunk driver, who drives nearly 90 miles an hour, endangering innocent livs, just because they don&#39;t want there picture taken.

Good point&#33;

Anyway, I&#39;m not sure about how she lived before becoming a "future queen", but it seems she is threated as Evita was: the "poor girl" that marries "the leader" and uses her feame to "do good for mankind and poor people" since she was a bit poor once. Sounds like the perfect example for our children: "if you [work hard/marry a dictator] and thus get rich and famous you should show off and then help poor people to hide the enourmous poverty they live in because of our system". People believe this epic thing and supports that idea about "rich people coming from poverty and then saving capitalism from those poor idiots we exploit or steal".

A bit poor? She was fucking loaded&#33; Her family (the Spencers) have property all over the place, and she lived in a massive house before she married that inbred guy who talks to plants.
About the crash, I can&#39;t believe that anyone can have any sympathy for her as she was breaking the speed limit to get away from the paparazi, and then didn&#39;t put her seatbelt on. Anyone who doesn&#39;t wear their seatbelt deserves no sympathy if they crash.

You sir, are a fucking idiot.

Edit- I removed the word **** as it&#39;s a stupid word for a leftist to use, apologies.

[h&s]

You sir, are a fucking ****.
Why thankyou sir.
I suppose I said that as I am so used to wearing a seatbelt, but if your driving as fast as you can without one, your asking for it.

[h&s]

No, I suppose you are right.
I am just trying to find an excuse not to have sympathy for her.

[Guerrilla22]

Again, those assholes put other motorist&#39;s lives in danger by driving like that. What the fuck did Diana have to do besides get her damn picture taken? She seemed to love it as long as she was in front of a group of little African kids that had their legs blown off.
