I suppose the royal family is an extreme case of this. It is almost impossible for them to even start moving outside their own narrow worldview.Luna17https://www.blogger.com/profile/17971631818273932413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093114275469628673.post-14811719170841148532009-11-19T15:50:41.994+00:002009-11-19T15:50:41.994+00:00Gary, what a rant!

One question I pose to friends and foe alike is; 'If you were a queen of your country, what would your priorities to your be? Strangely enough, the answer is more or less the same even though with some people I probe them that direction; so here we go; 'If I was a queen of my country, my priority would be to ensure that the welfare of my people is ok.' The only problem with this is that to look after the welfare of another person one should know how that person lives. Those in royal blue can never perceive how it is like to be an ordinary human being. But the UK would not be the UK without the monarchy - God bless the Queen.florence durranthttp://floenced.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093114275469628673.post-3909327420502600272009-11-18T20:43:40.637+00:002009-11-18T20:43:40.637+00:00Imagine for a moment being the queen.

Try to put yourself behind her eyes and view the world as she does.<br /><br />No, hang on, if you're planning now to do the masses a favour by killing yourself you're not REALLY putting yourself in the role of the queen. It's still YOU thinking the way YOU think.<br /><br />It's actually impossible for you to comprehend like the queen. You could never get inside her head and perceive the way she does.<br /><br />That's because Elizabeth II is the product of a life so profoundly alien to you and yours. Her ideas are more bizarre than the craziest dream that ever went through a sleeping Michael Jackson's head!<br /><br />Her majesty has never had to worry about paying the bills; she has never struggled to find a job; or needed to get blind drunk to forget herself and her worries.<br /><br />She has never had to consider stealing to survive; never hid behind the settee after hearing an ominous knock at the door; for christ's sake she has never had to answer a bloody door!!<br /><br />The queen is completely detached from the reality of every day working class life. And just like we cannot understand her perceptions, she can never understand what it's like to be one of us.<br /><br />And for that reason she should keep her big ruling class gob tightly shut!Garynoreply@blogger.com
