    The time to do one or t'other is a distinction some on here struggle with.

    There's always a quote from Hamlet to chuck in:

    "There’s a special providence in the fall of a sparrow. If it be now, ’tis not to come. If it be not to come, it will be now. If it be not now, yet it will come—the readiness is all."

    Well I read Mansfield’s first post, and the response from Blood red sky, and if I was to point the finger at the first one to be aggressive, I’d say it wasn’t Mansfield.

    As I defended him in my first response, he posted 3 words that were all factually correct as per the OP.

    1 Hypocrite; as per the OP, lecturing on climate change when she’s actively lobbied for an exemption.
    2. Inbred; is it not true the whole of Europe’s royal families are related? Didn’t her great grandma marry her own cousin? Not looking up family trees, but it wouldn’t take a lot of research to find the consequences of the inbreeding. Weren’t 2 of Philips aunties put in an asylum as kids and left to rot.
    3. Parasite; you can check the dictionary yourself for that one.

    And the response from BRS? Wouldn’t you describe that as aggressive?

    I don't care at all.

    You've quoted me above....

    "I want people to give their opinions without the use of abuse or aggression.

    It's that simple"

    ...and I'm happy with that. Thank you for helping me make my point.

    I just found it weird that you chose to attack the victim of the abuse when he retaliated

    It’s an odd state of affairs to pretend to be standing up for peace whilst attacking a victim.

    Orsenkhat your Henry obsession relates to IV which is where your tips usually finish - out of the frame.

    The posts that followed my last post are unbelievable. Hypocrisy and contradictions at their best. Please don't throw any more teddies out you're embarrassing yourself. Also note no swearing or hateful inuendo. I really don't know you but judge you by what you spout

    Your victim began this thread with the description of the Queen as "Hypocritical inbred parasite".

    She may well be, but no more nor less than your lawyer is a"victim".

    Poor lad - shall we have a whipround for him?

    Well as per my post, Mansfield’s description of the Queen is factually correct.

    Nowt more to say on the matter, I broke it down for you already.

    Well I'm sure that you might think it's nice to have the chance to defend the labelling of individuals on the planet in factual terms.

    But we're all the same really.

    Well… we’re not all the same are we? some of us are highly driven, some are lazy, some are psychopaths. Some people are highly intelligent and some are thick as mince. Some are racist pond life, and some are kind and selfless.

    As for the Queen; I could accurately describe her as loyal, as a millionaire, as a grandma, a mother, the wife of a serial adulterer, but also as a hypocrite (as per post 1), and inbred and as a parasite.

    I wouldn’t use any of those words to describe myself, so we’re clearly different, me and the Queen ;)

    Well you and your forbears obviously live the lives of saints if you can't come up with any foibles/skeletons in the closet of you and your own family, as per those things that you wish to tarnish ol' Liz with.

    Whilst you seek to disparage her, it needs to be remembered that she didn't apply for the job, and as far as jobs go she's done a mighty fine one.

    We are all the same. Wealth or privilege doesn't make you different. Someone might win euro millions tonight. They're still the same. But with more money. Still humans that are part of society.

    Lol, btw what do think of the Queen saying she’s irritated by the inaction in climate change when she has lobbied for Windsor Castle to be exempt from these? Can you not see why people would think she is being hypocritical?

    I never suggested I was perfect - if you think that me not being a grandma means a lot, you've properly lost the plot.

    I have a modicum of respect for Her Maj, and as a lukewarm republican I don't see her as the epitome of evil. But as a grown up and a realist, I can also see that the 3 words Mansfield used are factually correct.

    Now if you choose to ignore those facts, then that's fine by me, but you surely don't expect to actively ignore them and have others respect you for doing so.
