The crown, £2.5 million and gold trimmings could go some way to paying the nurses a decent increase.
May 6th. the UK enters a new era, we are expected to participate in a display that is reminiscent of Germany in the 30's where hordes were gather together to shout allegiance to the imposed leader Heil whoever, Heil whoever. In this case in UK the allegiance we are supposed to regurgitate is to someone who has unimaginable inherited wealth, power and privilege, and has never done a days work in his entire life. May 6th will mark the crowning of a privileged individual who because of his birth and the system of monarchy and imperialism that has festered in this country for centuries, lives in a bubble of opulence and privilege. The meaningless words that we are all supposed to shout out are "I swear that I will pay true allegiance to your majesty" A crowning ceremony that will cost you and I £100 million of our tax money, while nurses and doctors are refused a wage that reflects there training, skill and dedication. All of who have worked very hard to get to the position they are in, unlike this pompous individual who will get everything free just because of his birth.
Will the people behave like sheep and shout Heil Charles, Heil Charles, or will they see through this circus, this edifice to British imperialism the bulwark of the system of power and privilege to the wealthy. Surely this shouting allegiance is so ridiculous so obvious a pantomime that the average person will have a laugh it its stupidity and instead shout Not My King, and work hard at seeing this whole pomp and ceremony of power and privilege ends up where it belongs, in the dustbin of history.
