I remember when he first met the Diversity dance group, he said "so, are you all brothers then?"
He just sounds like a typical 91 year old to me
It will be a sad day when he dies. I will miss his oblivious inappropriateness .

He's completely out of touch with what is appropriate. That is why it is funny.

What does a company that provides event stewards screwing up big time have to do with anything?
If anything you should blame the government for associating with them, its part of one of their many schemes.

Actually from what I heard the monarchy has a 70%+ approval rating, better than [i]most[/i] of our presidents.
Speaking of which, I am on vacation in London at the moment and every 3 minutes on the news we hear about his bladder infection. If he was admitted because of a rectal prolapse or something, would the TV news anchors be so eager to point that out regularly? No wonder I hear he's a bit of a codger.

the queen isn't an oblivious idiot, in her position of power she would know about the contractors working on her event, and wouldve been advised to use certain ones based on cost and efficiency for the event, the events are a direct result of the royal family's choice of workforce.
and the royal family also claims that this event is private, which means they organised these contractors themselves; unless that is a facade and it truly comes from the taxpayer. then you would be right.

Aha oh God I have this image of the Queen phoning up the contractors and saying "Now one would prefer it if the stewards are all unpaid". The royal family barely had a hand in planning this, let alone the Queen herself you eejit.

Like the person who wrote post #48 I also love the idea of the queen / royal family actually planning something like that. All this stuff is planned for them.
As for the second bit of your post, CPUK is part of one of the governments getting people back to work scheme (ie, the do this low paid work or we take your benefits scheme).
