If anyone ever needed a reminder of why Dubliners are called Jackeens just switch on radio/tv etc this week to hear the tip the hat, sickening ,weak comments of the Dubiln folk in anticipation of the Queens visit
They're not all like this though. And isn't it any bloody wonder, I mean it's all over the shaggin' newspapers, media etc saying we should 'mature' as a nation and bow the knee to her and her armed forces. >:(

Who said that? Don't be exaggerating.
(Do we really need another tiresome thread on this tiresome shite?)
Dont bother writing on the thread if you dont want it to continue. What else would you expect from the Royal County ;)
It'd be some publicity coup if this is simply a Mercury-less Queen tour.

I agree 100%, i am less annoyed about the visit of the British queen than I am about the sickening queen worship on tv3 and the independent newspaper etc telling the people how the people are so happy to welcome "the" queen. 30 million euro and us not with 2 pennies to rub together.
And Obama dropping in to garner the Irish American vote next year. And the lapdog gardai jumping through hoops to suit him and the almighty secret service.

Big Joe looking forward to meeting the QueenQuote17 May 2011
Joe Sheridan will be on his best Royal County behaviour after being invited to meet the Queen at Croke Park on Wednesday.
Queen Elizabeth II is being welcomed to Croke Park tomorrow to tour the historic home of the GAA, with Croke Park personnel, GAA figures and a select number of players set to be present at the function.
The identity of all the players invited has yet to be released but a number of individuals invited have told of the honour, with Sheridan among them.
"I had a meeting with the GPA last week and I was fortunate to be asked by them to meet the Queen," explained Sheridan in the Meath News & Sport.
"I was honoured to be chosen and it's something that will go down in history so I was more than delighted to oblige.
"Things like this don't happen too often and to be a part of it will be something very special."
I wonder will he be introduced as "the person who caused more devastation in Louth than Cromwell".
