Princes Charles invited sex criminal Harbinder Singh Rana on the Royal Diamond Jubilee barge
DID you see Harbinder Singh Rana stood on the Royal barge, the Spirit of Chartwell, as it motored down the River Thames? He was Prince Charles’s guest. Harbinder Singh Rana is a convicted sex attacker. In August 1986, Rana was the vice president of the Internationan Sikh Youth Federation. He was convicted at Dudley of posing as a doctor to examine women internally.
The Mirror says this is a “security scare”, adding:
During his time on the barge, Rana came into close proximity with the Queen, Prince Philip, Prince Charles, Camilla, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry.
Rana served four years for five counts of indecent assault, 11 counts of assault causing actual bodily harm and one of attempted assault. It is unlikely that he assaulted any of the Royal knobs on the boat.
The Mail adds:
The convicted sex attacker was at times during the 1,000 boat extravaganza just feet from the Queen herself.

Daily Telegraph Diamond Jubilee fail
THE Diamond Jubilee was terrific. For fans of bunting, like us, it was mega. But the Daily Telegraph says the BBC’s coverage was rubbish. Or as the paper reports:
“DAIMOND Jubilee: criticism grows over BBC’s ‘lamentable’ coverage“
‘Nuff said…

Jubilee hit of the day: Jonathan King sings God Save The Sex Pistols
BEFORE he became a media pariah, Jonathan King hymned a reply to the Sex Pistols’ God Save The Queen. It’s called God Save The Sex Pistols, and as Madame Arcati reports, in 1977 Prince Charles liked it so much he ordered six copies. What Chas doesn’t know about the funny, ain’t worth knowing…

Diamond Jubilee concert in photos (Gary Barlow bowel cam)
FOR those American readers who think the Diamond Jubilee is a QVC segment on selly telly, and the Jubilee River Pageant a Disney on Melted Ice, news: that stuff is real. The UK is a giant theme park, overseen by the Queen of Diamonds*, who devours sons-and-daughters-in law faster than Sarah Ferguson at an all-you-can-eat trotter jamboree, and Gary Barlow, a singer with Take That who, having pulled himself up by the boot laces now actually lives insider Her Majesty’s bowel from where he directs Jubilee pop concerts featuring the likes of Cheryl Cole, Paul McCartney, Steve Wonder and Grace Jones. (*Diamonds may be cut-glass (see accent).):

Diamond Jubilee: photos of Royals aboard the Havengore
DIAMOND Jubilee Special Part 2: Our photographer made it onto the ‘Havengore’ on the River Thames, London, during the Diamond Jubilee river pageant, spending time with the Royal Family as they floated downstream. No Fergie. No Diana. No dates for their kids. The Windsor ex-wives and husbands are invited to wave along with the rest of the fans. (Pippa Middleton sends hugs.)

Crown Prince Willem-Alexander caught tossing with a toilet
TO Holland, where the country’s Crown Prince Willem-Alexander has won the country’s toilet-throwing contest. The heir to the, erm, Dutch throne marked Queen’s Day by heading to Rhenen to toss a toilet. He won first place.
He tells us:
“Here in the Netherlands there are towns that take part in the throwing of toilet-bowls for a laugh. I participated with a smile, but not without shame in thinking about the some 2.6 billion people around the world that do not have this most basic infrastructure to fulfil a daily need with dignity.“

Diamond Jewbilee a Zionist plot say Take That fans 4 Syria
IT’S JUBILEE time. Keep up to date on all the festivities on the ‘My Husband And iPhone’ as your party in the Royal Boroughs of Kensington Chelsea, Leamington Spa, Kingston upon Thames, Wootton Bassett, Greenwich and throughout Berkshire. Others will be gnashing their teeth in the un-royal boroughs of Brent and Lambeth, and the republics of Brent, Yorkshire and Cornwall.
More others will be taking to the internet to expose the Jewbilee for what it is – a Zionist plot to distract us from the real business of how Mossad agent Bashir al-Assad Mossad is killing so many in Syria.

Diamond Jubilee laughs: 60 Years of The Queen being funny in photos
HOW funny is the Queen? Has she ever cracked a joke? In 60 years of throne warming, the stand-out quote was about her annus horribilis. Was that an odd turn of phrase or an in-joke aimed for her husband’s ears, a pun on his cooking? We’ve compiled a gallery of Her Majesty laughing and being amusing:

The Royal Family are all Diana’s children on the Diamond Jubilee show
HAVE you seen the massive Diamond Jubilee tribute to the Royal Family hanging from Sea Containers House in London? It is the largest ever photograph of the Royal Family, measuring 100m by 70m and weighing nearly two tons. Odd, indeed, that photo that large can find no space for Prince William and Harry, or their dear old mum, Lady Diana.
So desperate are the Windsors to pretend to be like the rest of us the surprise is that the advert fails to feature them modelling a signature range of Diamond Jubilee underwear. It’s not hard to image Andrew spending 98% of his life with just his knickers on and Prince Eddie dressed in pleated pyjamas for almost all of his. Anne, of course, doesn’t wear underwear, having been hand sewn into her tweed all-in-one in 1972. Prince Charles doesn’t know what colour his undies are because they pulled onto this loins by a willing footman while it’s still dark.

Diamond Jubilee: Stanhope cafe become Queen Elizabeth shrine
THE Diamond Jubilee looms like a fly over a jam bun. The Royal Family are piggy-backing on the Olympic Games, hoping the plastic flags and Team GB will mean we party like it’s 1977. We won’t. The EU, a war in Iraq and an unelected Prime Minster that was Gordon Brown (remember him?) have further highlighted the lunacy of a democracy that has an unelected billionaire as its head of State and an heir who is Defender of Faith but can’t be arsed to keep his martial vows. They say the Queen represents continuity. We look back at her reign. But we want to look forward. Still, we are not all unenthused. Anita Atkinson has tuned her Royal Teas in Stanhope into a Royal shrine. Her huge collection of memorabilia is on display amongst the cakes and teas. She’s a Windsor fan. You might be one, too. Or you might think Liz is an aberration and should step down and be replaced by a British aborigine. Still, nice cakes…

The story of Prince Charles’ comedy – from The Goons to nowhere
IN his introduction to Andy Secombe’s book, Growing Up With The Goons, Prince Charles has declared modern comedy to be witless, smutty and cruel. He appeared bewildered by the banter of national treasure Peter Kay when they met at a charity concert. He is a man out of time.
The Prince is honorary president of the Goon Show Preservation Society, and is never slow to display his own unique brand of humour. This month, he sportingly performed the weather forecast for BBC Scotland, and leavened the somewhat somber report with a few light-hearted, off-the-cuff remarks.
Nothing new there. Indeed, as early as 1970, the new Prince of Wales was entertaining Cambridge audiences as a weather forecaster in a Trinity College revue, ‘Quiet Flows The Don’.

In photos – The Queen’s trip to Burnley
TODAY Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, The Duke of Edinburgh and The Prince of Wales did journey on the Leeds and Liverpool canal on the barge ‘Pride Of Sefton’, during a trip to Burnley, Lancashire. It’s all part of the Diamond Jubilee celebrations, during which the Queen will wear lots of diamonds. Hurrah! (Get a lot of the Queen’s boat in photo 4. Scuppered, to be sure.)

The Diamond Jubilee piggyback on Team GB and celebrity knobs
HAVE you seen those adverts on the sides of London buses, the ones telling us that Ahmadiyya Muslim Association UK is happy about the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee? “CONGRATULATIONS YOUR MAJESTY,” says the banner by a link to a website called MuslimsForPeace.org.uk.
That website tells us:
It would surprise many to know that an established Muslim Community in Britian [sic] is celebrating the forthcoming Diamond Jubilee
It would be surprising if such an asinine organisation wasn’t. The Diamond Jubilee is sold as celebration of belonging. It’s about civic pride, something only the Swiss are very good at that, and they also think fascism and assisted suicide are the way forward. It’s 1977 and all that, with street parties, bunting and TV news featuring pictures of mums in aprons spooning jelly into the faces of kids invited to the Royal feast so long as they bring their own food, stay at home and wash up afterwards.

Kate Middleton – the best photos of her first year as Princess Kate Middleton
IT’S been a year since Kate Middleton became Princess Kate Middleton. In that time she’s opened things, eaten things, baked things, opened, eaten, holidayed, baked, smiled, now revealed her knicker when exiting a golden coach, received and not fallen pregnant. No pressure Kate. No pressure. Queen Beatrice will be fine. She’s got loadsa funny hats and the Windsor teeth. Sarah Ferguson as the Queen Mother will be fine. Sure the country will revolt but for £50,000, she’ll show you her knickers and get Andrew to say ‘hi”. That for later. For now, we’ve pulled together the best ten photos of Kate’s first 12 months. Enjoy:
