Some food for thought.
And I’ll admit to being jealous of Australia and Canada and their infantile suckling on the teat of Britain’s proud monarchy. Oh the history, the pomp, the comfort in being tucked into bed, nightly, knowing a steady hand is at or near the wheel. We Americans are let to bob up and down, swinging from the jowls of one highly unpredictable politician to the next. Our “king” is basically Mike Bloomberg and imagine that.
The horror, the horror.
In any case, Australia’s “republican” movement has gained sudden steam over perceived mistreatment of “Australian-esque” Prince Harry and his beautiful wife Meghan Markle. Their “surf-like” qualities are admired in the land down under but let’s learn more and then, as Americans, give some advice.
Harry and Meghan’s decision comes at a time when Australians are talking very seriously about becoming a republic, although recent polling has provided mixed results. A February 2018 poll by Research Now found 52% supported a republic with 25% unsure and just 22% supporting the monarchy.
A Newspoll in November 2018, just after a royal tour by Harry and Meghan, found only 40% supported a republic with 48% against. This was the first time since 1999 that a poll found more people opposed the change.
In 2019, it was even reportedly proposed that Harry might be made the governor-general of Australia. This move would have potentially boosted royal support but was ultimately dismissed.
A Dynata poll in June 2019 then found that support for a republic among under 25-year-olds had grown to 57%, with 50% of those 25-34 supporting a change.
A large part of the couple’s appeal is that they appear relatable (read: surfy) when compared to the Queen or Prince Charles. It certainly is relatable for a couple in their 30s with a young family to want to move from home and be financially independent. The catch for monarchists is that much of the couple’s popularity comes from their rejecting traditional royal roles.
Now, advice…
DON’T LEAVE THE CROWN! Freedom may look good but one day you wake up sandwiched between Bill and Hillary Clinton, Bill mouth-breathing, Hillary binge watching episodes of Friends while passive-aggressively hate-texting Seema Nanda and think… “Whoa. How’d I end up here?”
More as the story develops.
I guess that I would rather “eat” the young Queen Elizabeth.
Ha!
Jesus you’re a sick fuck! But a funny one!
Yes!!!
I think it important we do not budget for a make-up team for Rosie, in the interest of maintaining creative integrity and preservation of a depiction of the ugly truth. I must remark that there’s no sense in putting lipstick on a pig.
You’re a visionary. This is brilliant! And doable!
Giustra founded Lionsgate Studio.
We could form Lying’s Great Studio for Production.

I have seen those worthless Canadian coins, but I didn’t take it seriously that Canada and apparently Australia are still somehow owned by England. I know that the USA is not in vogue on the world stage, but at some point we grew some balls.
If only we had some guns. Otherwise the king of England could just show up and start pushing people around.
Can you eat anything that appears on your coins?
Plausible.
Don’t forget about Disney’s role. It’s a small world after all.
“wake up sandwiched between Bill and Hillary Clinton, “
Harry and Meghan are posted up at the mansion of Giustra, the Clinton Foundation’s biggest private individual donor, mining and oil drilling magnate and the benefactor of Hillary’s Sec. of State position during Obama years. Meghan refuses to return to Hollywood, pronounced by Meghan as the United States until Trump is out of office. Guess she’ll have to wait till 2025. Expect a swift divorce thereafter and Harry fleeing to Australia. Hey Australia, Harry will arrive woke broke by divorce. Be patient. Your great leader shall come, maybe overcome.too.

We really do need to find out more about that ‘surfing group’.
If only to get them listed on the register of potential terrorists.
This is your mission Chas. fuck all that other noise.
Derek must know something about them. The cell apparently operates openly in his back yard.
Actually to be honest, if BG organised performance ‘groups’ like that to wander around trolling, with happy-clappy smiles, it would be pretty funny.
https://www.onewaveisallitt… – all is revealed here…
Awesome!
I had no idea about that thing…or anything really.
A good cause, as long as they don’t actually get more people into that water at my break.
Glad you’re back Channel!
Harry’s old man all ready did this at a Perth beach way back and pulled a chick on the way back to the royal taxi after a bodybash.
Here he is mixing it with the local scum valley crew
Makes Harry’s bullshit look lame.

Was out entertaining a few fellas in the mid aughts – the bar specialized in you lying back on a bar, table, fuck even the floor if you could reach for your credit card and some chick would pour as much booze as you could handle and then swing her tiddies side to side smacking your head until the drink went down. Same night Harry had the upstairs booked out. Glad he is carving his own path must have been a tough decision.
I reckon he’s a pussywipped cunt
I like your ability not to mince words – ever thought of surf commentary
Yep.
Only if Fluro Friday is made compulsory at every beach. In fact Rielly is probably down there right now,
Finally some good advice.
Was this the good news breaking today at BG? Fuck the Queen and all that? Braveheart was more entertaining than this.
I think the revelation is playing in a miniplayer near you !
[gasp]
There it is!
How could we have all been so stupid !!!!???!!
Salt water pickles the brain
i would never do you a dirty like that…. also, I wasn’t suggesting to fuck the Queen. I was saying keep her!
Totally different thing–how’s the response to the Lisa Anderson movie been? People watching it, etc.?
Oh… Yes! It’s won film festivals and doing well on download!
When are you going to GoPro helmet cam one of the film festival award ceremonies where you’re being…ya know…awarded and live feed it on Beach Grit. AND open up live comments for us?
Congrats! She’s amazing, and good on your creative production!
And off to Tel Aviv in June for showing. Jews will love story of fighting back against odds etc.

Trump crippled Hezbollah. Soleimani’s second in command doesn’t present the same military leadership skills. And put Hezbollah on notice that actionable Intelligence will be put into play and acted upon.
Theyre dumb cunts so wont stop a few rockets going off
Are there travel guides for bunker locations?
