As a citizen of the UK one of the great things we enjoy is the RIGHT to compliment, criticise, comment, publish, laugh at, joke about, verbally snipe at whatever we damn well like, at just about whoever we damn well like including, but not restricted to, politicians, leaders, royal family, 'im or 'er down the road, shopkeepers, family members, television presenters, Clarkson, civil servants, bankers, utility companies, over officious and pompous people serving us, airlines (in particular Ryan Air - but I'll keep booking), Richard Branson, train companies, contemporary pop stars in particular boy bands, hypocritical aged pop stars like Bryan May who haven't produced anything new for years but seem to pop up every time there is something to celebrate, footballers (overpaid variety), aged hypocritical pop stars with something to say about things they feel strongly e.g May again with his Mr Badger Campaign, Prince Charles now don't get me started on him cos we will be here all night
.... now I'm sure I've missed quite a few, but the important thing is we enjoy the right to say, within the bounds of reason and decency, whatever we like about any of them.
Yes it might make us a nation of moany old men and women, but if we didn't have that, what else would we have to moan about!!
