mormont Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Tremendously entertained by the outrage on Twitter over MPs and some celebs (Philip Schofield and Holly Willoughby getting pelters again) getting to pay respects via a 'fast track' queue. It's a disgrace to the memory of the Queen who famously always waited her turn in line with the, wait, hang on. Hmm. Meanwhile David Beckham, famously a man of the people who never gets up to any celeb nonsense, set an example by waiting for hours with the plebs.

BigFatCoward Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 It's so weird, why would anyone spend 16 hours queuing to go past a closed casket in 15 seconds? I wouldn't spend that long queueng to pay my respects to my own mam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ljkeane Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Apparently there's been ongoing civil disorder in East Leicester since the Pakistan India Asia Cup match at the end of last month. Bloody hell people are idiots. Sports riots are pretty fucking stupid anyway but three weeks of disorder over a group stage T20 match feels particularly idiotic.

A wilding Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 So a failure of overhead lines means that no trains are running into or out of London Paddington railway station today. Messing up the travel plans of numerous people who wanted to be in London for the funeral or Windsor for the procession. There is something rather symbolic about that. Especially as the newly created "Elizabeth Line" is one of those affected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to state, this is much more than about cricket or sports fans or India V Pakistan, and we should not be reducing it to that - there is overlap, but it isn't as simple as that, though that seems to have been the spark - it is an ongoing broader issue related to Hindutva, Modi's rheteroic over the last few years and particularly the RSS Thread here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raja Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 The above is all partiularly disheartening as my time in Liecester was great, I'm Indian & Hindu and worked with lots of Pakistani and Muslim staff within the NHS and existing in that mixed community was nice. India has gone down an awful path with Modi, and now that is spilling out here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFatCoward Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 My favourite comment I've read 'Everyone in the queue kicking off about celebrities jumping the queue have already bought into the idea that some people are better. Its only right they are getting to see it played out first hand and have it rubbed in their stupid faces'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
