Historical British Army “Ranks” & “Formations”! (30.8.2024)

There are a number of exceptions to this observation. In 1571, for instance, Queen Elizabeth I raised the “Holland Regiment”. Monck’s Regiment of Foot served the Parliamentary Cause during the English Civil Wars and is today better known as the “Coldstream Guards”.  The “Royal Regiment of Guards” fought for King Charles I during the English Civil Wars and is today known as the “Grenadier Guards”. It seems that early examples of the use of the “Regiment” designation might have included newly formed units with no fighting history or direct links to a British geographical location. These attributes had to be earned through blood and honour. However, eventually very well-establish military units seem to have voluntarily taken on this designation – or been given it by the British government.

UK: On Why the Queen Does Not Own Anything! (18.2.2025)

The very concept of the royal family is parasitic and out of date. Although entities such as the Police and the Military pledge an oath to the Queen – each institution is in fact ‘legally’ bound to be loyal first and foremost to the Bourgeois State and the elected Parliament that administers that State! Whilst the British right-wing begrudges the British working-class possessing a Welfare State and NHS that itself-finances through collective taxation – it is perfectly willing to usurp the tax revenue collected from the working-class to finance the parasitic lifestyles of the royal family which quite often involves immoral or illegal activity for which no members of the royal family are punished in any way! What modern people must remember in the UK is that the contemporary royal family works for us – and we do not, as a nation – work for it! Furthermore, the Queen possesses NO political power and we are NOT subject to her Majesty’s whims, beck or call! The contemporary royal family is an anachronism that should be abolished with all the royal palaces turned into schools, hospitals, museums and freely accessible public spaces.
