It is so strange and awful that amid recession and economic despair, we still see an institution that has outlived its relevance displaying opulence and profligacy with carelessness abundance. In Britain, Europe and the Commonwealth today, majority of the citizenry are suffering because
they have a privileged leadership that is detached from their worries and pains.
What is painful is that the Chief Executive Officer of found it necessary to organise very expensive programmes to mark her reigns. Like greedy landlords and lousy banks, the British monarchy fails to connect to the people hence shows or expresses no concern about the plight of millions of ordinary people hustling daily to eke a living and instead chose to spend colossal sums of pound sterling to celebrate Elizabeth II's diamond jubilee. One wonders what there is for her to celebrate anyway when in reality the so-called British Empire has disappeared during her tenure and Britain has become a US poodle in a sense. The Monarchy's lack of sensitivity and failure to weigh up the risks and not to care about the suffering masses has incurred the wrath of the divine powers to intervene. The main obsession of Elizabeth is just to display her ill-gotten fortune. They are the privileged family born with a silver spoon in their mouth were getting dressed to show their pomp and glory when true wielders of real power came down like angels of God descending on King Herod and devoured him, striking Prince Philip leading to his hospitalisation. He was admitted to a hospital in London with a bladder infection, casting a
shadow over events to mark the monarch's 60 years on the throne.
Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh is the husband of Elizabeth II. He is
the United Kingdom's longest-serving consort and the oldest serving
spouse of a reigning British monarch. The Duke of Edinburgh was taken to King Edward VII Hospital in London
this afternoon, from Windsor Castle, as a precautionary measure after
developing a bladder infection, which is being assessed and treated,"
the royal household said in a statement on its website. "Prince Philip
will remain in hospital under observation for a few days. He is,
understandably, disappointed about missing this evening's Diamond
Jubilee concert and tomorrow's engagements."
