The most admired person in the world?

[teddybloat]

A loveless woman who chose duty over her children, married to an unfaithful bigot, mother of charles - an inbred (related to queen victoria through mummy and daddy) religious crackpot who meddles in political affairs and andrew a freeloading arrogant confidant of paedos.

Still we cant blame charles as he was raised by palace staff and barely knew his mummy's touch as she felt world tours and duty to be more important than showing her son love.

A woman credited with preserving the monarchy yet whose brood's completely ham-fisted attempts at moral living brought it into the worst public standing imaginable.

Who can blame them, with dear old betty as an absent mother, and an adulterous bigot as a father they had every disadvantage in life.

Still good to know we keep her in the financial and material comfort 99% of people can only dream of.

Food banks and double dip recession? Tally ho, innit.

Dispicable woman.

Makes you despair at humanity looking at some of the names on that list.

Putin in third apparently, as the most admired person on the planet? Really? Was that a restricted vote in Russia or something? The list appears to be the most recognisable/well-known people in the world, rather than admired.

It's given me an idea though...

Dispicable woman.

Whatever your views on royalty (I don't really care either way), I struggle to see anything that justifies this level of hatred.

[teddybloat]

I hate what she stands for, and I do believe her to be an odious person, an awful mother and someone with a totally warped sense of morality and entiltlement.

She aint no friend of mine.

I'm sure she's gutted about that. 

You've met her I take it? 

[teddybloat]

Im sure she cares not a jot.

Ive never met her, no.

Should I admire her by default until I have met her?

[Graham C]

Not necessarily but you seem quite to have quite a personal dislike for her.

[kinboshi]

Surely it's OK to dislike people you've never actually met?  Harold Shipman wouldn't be on my xmas card list (possibly because I don't have one, and he's dead, but you get the point) - but I never met the man. I dislike Lance Armstrong, but that's based on what I've read about him and seen on TV and other videos.

Sounds like a lot of 'normal' families to me.

Ha!

I had to look at that 4 times before I got your drift.

I happen to be a great admirer of Her Majesty, The Queen, as it happens.

Knowing you (virtually) quite well from Next Door, & your usual non-confrontational, friendly & helpful demeanour, I'm really quite taken aback by what, reading between the lines, appears to be a degree of dislike for Her Wonderfulness.

Just shows how some topics - nearly said subjects which might have got "Pun of the Week"  - can be so revealing.

On a brighter note, you may well have found 2 new friends, in Camel & KMac. I'm not entirely sure, but I have a hunch they may be in your camp on this one.
