Give me a ring when yu get rid of your national church, hereditary head of state, and completely undemocratic upper house of lords.

Don't act like yur history is anything but a fiction plzzz. Is there any official historical document older than 50 years that was written by anyone democratically elected in England? NOPE.

so if you wanna talk about selective history...

What has your irrational hatred of the British Establishment got to do with your inaccurate posts?

Stop trying to body swerve the fact you dont have a fecking clue what you post about.

Nothing inaccurate about my posts.

I only speak the truth.

(and if i had a hatred of the british establishment, i doubt i'd choose such an irrelevant site as a big brother website to protest against it) I know this website is totally irrelevant, and i'm talking to big brother fans, if i was really serious about being "anti-british" don't you think i choose a better forum than a big brother forum??? lol

I know, your lack of knowledge isnt cute anymore, I am just glad you can see it. I am starting to feel embarrassed for you actually.

my lack of knowledge about what? os far it seems i know more about yur political system than most of yur actual citizens.

Still waiting for a good excuse for why every british citizen, including athiests, muslims, hindu's etc, are paying taxes to support yur national CHRISTIAN church. If i was muslim, hindu or athiest,i'd be pretty upset about that.

But i guess because it's "tradition", that makes it okay...?

Thank gawd for separation of church and state in the USA.

Your lack of knowledge about pretty much everything.

Take for example your comment about tax supporting the Church of England


Income for the Church of England:

Around three-quarters (£750 million) comes from worshippers in the parishes. Over the past five years, parishes have increased their giving by around £100 million to meet increased ministry and pension costs.

Across the Church, regular, tax-efficient giving rose by nearly 50% in the five years between 1999 and 2004.

Today:

•over £200 million is given tax-efficiently each year through Gift Aid and a further £60 million is recovered from the Inland Revenue in tax;
•£200 million is given in cash and donations by congregations and visitors;
•£250 million is raised through legacies, special events, the letting of church halls, bookstalls, fundraising and parish magazines etc.
Around 15 per cent (over £160 million) comes from the Church Commissioners who manage assets of £4.4 billion (at the end of 2008) on behalf of the Church:

In addition, income for the Church of England is generated from:

•£50 million through income on reserve funds in parishes;
•£50 million through income on reserves in dioceses and cathedrals;
•£30 million from fees paid for weddings, funerals and chaplaincies.

So what proportion of that comes from everyone who pays taxes?
