For the Olympics 2 of the 5 Verses are to sung. Verses 1 & 3.

Verse 2 to be dropped because of its politically incorrect content:


O Lord our God arise,

Scatter our enemies,

And make them fall!

Confound their knavish tricks,

Confuse their politics,

On you our hopes we fix,

God save the Queen!


So here it goes.


Verse 1


God save our gracious Queen!

Long live our noble Queen!

God save the Queen!

Send her victorious,

Happy and glorious,

Long to reign over us,

God save the Queen.


Verse two


Thy choicest gifts in store

On her be pleased to pour,

Long may she reign.

May she defend our laws,

And give us ever cause,

To sing with heart and voice,

God save the Queen.

Lets hope they dont wheel Lesley Garret out to honk it like she did on the Champs Elysee. Poor Wiggins looked like he wa going to shrivel up with shame. It would have been marginally more bearable if their had been a brass band to drown out her divaish warbling. How about an alternative? I'm going with This:
It strikes me as wilfully odd that they can update the interpretation of the bible every 5 mins to suit the waxing and waning of public opinion but they cant airbrush out the verse which calls for the enforced rimming of the Scottish chieftains(or whatever). Is their a verse that alludes to The Welsh fondness for a certain livestock or one that touches on the upside of the potato famine? Fie for shame your majesticness. Still, I'm looking forward to it...

Yes, I know the words:


Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi,

Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri;

Ei gwrol ryfelwyr, gwladgarwyr tra mad,

Dros ryddid collasant eu gwaed.


Gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad.

Tra m?r yn fur i'r bur hoff bau,

O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.


Hen Gymru fynyddig, paradwys y bardd,

Pob dyffryn, pob clogwyn, i'm golwg sydd hardd;

Trwy deimlad gwladgarol, mor swynol yw si

Ei nentydd, afonydd, i mi.


Gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad.

Tra m?r yn fur i'r bur hoff bau,

O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.


Os treisiodd y gelyn fy ngwlad tan ei droed,

Mae hen iaith y Cymry mor fyw ag erioed,

Ni luddiwyd yr awen gan erchyll law brad,

Na thelyn berseiniol fy ngwlad.


Gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad.

Tra m?r yn fur i'r bur hoff bau,

O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.

    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
    • Also, just to add, the threat to kill someone's dog and try to kick it, is an additional extremely unpleasant layer. I have noticed a lot of the burst water balloons lying around in the park too- that is not great for the environment either.
    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him
