Nope...a Royal procession under a bridge that opens up with thousands of people cheering on...VOLUNTARILY!!!! And with no tax payer expense on the show! A show by the people for the Monarch to show the world who we are ...BRITISH!
I'm fairly sure that there are plenty of people of many different nationalities there.

Slower pace of the procession than the one we saw last Sunday wink, but enjoyable.

Queen, 86 years old.
Duke of Edinburgh, 90 years old.

They have both been stood for over 3 hours waving to the thousands of people who came out in classic British weather to celebrate Diamond Jubilee. The boat they were on had thrones for them both, but no...

They are still standing! Respect!

Was it my stream, or did everyone just entirely forget the words "happy and glorious?"

Such a shame when people have this old fashioned view of nations being seperate, when the world should all be one.
