View Full Version : Royal Wootton Bassett
It's been announced that Her Majesty has been pleased to grant the title "Royal" to the town of Wootton Bassett, for the quiet dignity and concern demonstrated by its citizens during the all too many repatriations of service personnel killed in action.
"They also serve who 'only' stand and wait".
Well done Your Majesty, and Bravo Zulu Royal Wotton Bassett
I think that's a nice sentiment.
Wooton Basset has become as powerful a symbol of respect for our war dead as any war memmorial.

Richly deserved, good drills from Her Majesty.

It would be an even greater gesture if she ordered her Prime Minister to withdraw ALL troops from Middle East & Asia, thus negating the need for all the sad scenes which we frequently see on TV.
It would also stop families throughout the UK fearing the dreaded knock on the door, informing them that a loved one has died in a futile war

Typical burble of a pacifist
