A ticket system with timed access could have been easily set up but the queue provides much better optics to repel future reform discussion. Interesting.

Fairish point, but British sherry was truly execrable (think Harvey's Bristol Cream but lacking the 'subtlety' of the overpowering saccharine sweetness and with a bit of a tangy edge), which is kind of Brexit in a nutshell.1 -
Have the radio playing in background, been muting on the news breaks, now has ooh Gary Davies playing an ok selection. But. I find myself keeping on swearing at the raydeeoh when he reads out the waffle messages from those weirdos who queued for no good reason. Leave it. Leave it.
The Establishment are doing a grand job cementing in the forelock tugging subservience mindset. Never mind the suitcases of dodgy cash or Prince Nonce.0 -

Of course it's a big event. Couldn't not be. I've not really seen anyone on here arguing otherwise, though plenty saying that they personally aren't tht bothered about the event. That includes me.1 -
