I pledge allegiance...

[david_carnell]

...to the Queen!??! You've got to be fecking joking. I'd rather swear allegiance to a Cornish pasty!

What clown came up with this bright idea. Honestly, what do they think of school leavers in this country?

And what are you going to do to me if I don't....? Eh?

Pillocks, the lot of them.

[SteveT]

To me and mine;-)

Unsurprisingly this has had the daily mash treatment.

School Leavers To Pledge Allegiance to Some Old Cow

[KalamityKel]

*mumbles something about Americans and their "ideas"*

[paragon]

This will definitely stop stabbings and train bombings.

Yeah, pledging allegiance to the monarchy I just what the disenfranchised need to make them feel needed. Perhaps they could arrange a weekly audience with the queen in Regents Park where the disaffected masses can gather to prostrate themselves before her. Nothing like some mass groveling to your oppressor to build community spirit.

That would be that crazy guy, Lord Goldsmith.

Apparently he's also considering awarding and MBE to each youngster who wears their baseball cap

the right way round and possibly awarding knighthoods to youths who are prepared to hitch their trousers up.

Obviously a forward-thinking mofo is Smith-E, and like totally down with the kids.

Word!

[Cassius]

I'd rather pull my fingernails out.

Anyway aren't we meant to be subjects not citizens.............?

[HonaloochieB]

Word indeed, Brendan my fellow OG.

[Brendan]

Subject of her maj but citizens of the EU.

Lord Blingsmith has said that if any youngsters refuse to cooperate, the local rozzers will march

them to cash points and force them to cough up an ?80.00 fine, thereby combining two highly successful government initiatives.

Blingy, he just loves it when a plan comes together.

I pledge allegiance to the Crystal Palace Tavern, and to the beer for which it stands...

[Brendan]

hear hear!

(or is that here here? Asset?)

[lozzyloz]

What a superb idea. Big Union jack in the corner of the classroom next to the gold framed portrait of HRH Elizabeth II. On another wall, a map of the world, proudly displaying in red, the countries that our military currently occupy and in blue, the remnants of the British Empire that are not yet republics. At the end of every school day a rousing chorus of the national anthem followed by an orderly march down to the school gates. Within a year or two our children will become disciplined, respectful, courteous and prepared to lay down their lives if needed against the axis of evil. God save the Queen.

[blinder999]

looks like the idea's been misrepresented in the media:

Goldsmith defended his recommendations, saying the ceremonies need not necessarily involve an oath of allegiance to the Queen.

"It can be a pledge of commitment to the country; it can be a statement of what the rights and responsibilities of citizens are," he said.

[HonaloochieB]

A teenage spokesman has issued the following statement.

"Myself and my members reject the notion of swearing an oath of allegiance to the queen on the grounds

that the others are all p*ss taking f@ckers and would never stop dissing us if they found out.

However my members are open to the idea of swearing an oath towards her majesty and would be prepared to communally spit some lyrics to this effect.

Any future negotiations would have to take place on this basis"

Why would I want to pledge an allegience to Queen - never gave a fig for that Freddie Mercury fella

[Marmora Man]

tThis proves thwee Labour gov't has run out steam.

Utter tosh, completely barking. Any right minded individual would reject this as totally not British.

[Brendan]

[ratty]

I think the queen shoul dpledge allegiance to me ffs

[atila the gooner]

And who will preside over the swearing of allegiance, Al Murray the pub landlord?

[*Bob*]

First choice was Cat Deeley, but I think she's unavailable - so I think it's going to be Vernon Kay instead.

[ChavWivaLawDegree]

I got kicked out of Brownies at the age of 8 for refusing to swear an oath to the Queen. I told my daughter to just pretend when she went to Brownies tho, so she's learned it's ok to lie courtesy of oath swearing and her republican mummy!
