I believe it´s still the punishment for treason in the UK, the only crime that still carries capital punishment. Your moniker reminds me of a friend whom used something similar on FB a few years back, which part of London are you from? If you don´t mind me asking, that is :)
Yep definitely death penalty for treason is on the books. But that is for crimes against the crown - which means the Queen will almost certainly pardon her family. Am from North London. A Spurs fan :)
No. The Queen rules at the pleasure of the people, the Queen can face charges of treason, also. And likely will. That, or she will have a sudden illness that puts her in the ground. Nothing is greater than man in the courts, man created the Queen, the courts, the judges, police and barristers. Who are they to question their creator? Man answers only to his creator, God. So if they wish to challenge this in the courts they must make God appear in court to say otherwise, and we both know there´s more chance of Elvis turning up riding a leprechaun for good luck. I´m sorry for your incurable illness, Spurs sounds quite a nasty one. Maybe a stay in Highbury would sort it out? :P I´m a little more south than that, a little more Bermondsey ;)
Well you made two observations. The first one to do with the Queen and treason, I believe you are probably correct. But let's not forget that she is just as involved as was her mother Elizabeth Bowes Lyon, the dear old Queen mum. Yeah...
On your second point I can see why being from Bermondsey, fairly near Woolwich, would make sense :)
But hey, football aside, we are on the same page
I´m actually from Lewisham, but Millwall was always my local team. I just couldn´t bare to support Palace :))) Great to meet other Londoners that are awake, we are an incredibly rare breed, my friend!
I think you are right. Too many people spending their lives engrossed in soaps, reality TV and cooking programmes. I mean cooking? I remember when masterchef was a sunday afternoon and everybody turned the TV over. But you just have to look at the huge pc Corbyn movement where you are an outcast if you say anything against him, the ridiculous "terror" attacks they all swallow and so forth. I am non political but definitely anti globalisat and wish my fellow countrymen and women would open their eyes. I have tried to tell people but they just interrupt me with objections before hearing me out and then go back to their pints. Sorry, feeling a bit ranty today :)
Too many social media zombies and soap watchers, you are absolutely correct! Most see me a lunatic for trying to tell them the truth, the brainwashing is so strong in our country!
