"There's a degree of mindless bellicosity in the UK leadership... that should stagger any thinking person, and chill them to the marrow..." Well its recent prime ministers such as Boris descended from George II, and Cameron from William IV ...and people like you "enjoy the Coronation..." Have you never considered that in the world of a class system, these things might be related and that the extended familial network of "the Firm" as Phillip used to refer to it, extend far beyond absurd ceremonials and into the real world? -That the bellicosity you rightly abhor is in fact somewhat closely related (in more ways than one) to the show of elitism that you apparently admire?
