I’m going to do what I do whenever I hear about the birth of anyone’s child. I congratulate the new parents and welcome the new arrival to the world.

A royal waste of a click into a thread.

I care so little about this I'm going to post on this thread started by someone else who cares so little about this they went to the effort of creating said thread.

Incredibly creative and funny thread title right there.

Hande hoche!

Boon time for royal correspondents.

God bless their Royal Highnesses
Young Harry Hewitt won't be happy he's now down to 6th in line
Any word on whether he's inviting his father to the wedding?

Thank god this thread isn't about a regular woman on benefits. They aren't worthy of a thread. God bless Kate Middleton and all that comes out of her.

They seem like nice folks. More luck to them, and to the wee babby. Y'all come back now, y'hear?? :cool::D

I wonder if the press will give her a few weeks leeway before expecting her to be back to a perfect size 10?

Degenerate scrounging scum. Feck em. Anyone who follows these down and outs scrounging bums needs to get a life.

The brown nosing on Sky News earlier was unreal.

There would be quite the constitutional crisis if she happened to hose out a little black fella.

The British Royal family are just amazing.

An example to us all.

God that's sad. The Kennedy family had a similar story, the father had one of the girls lobotimised and then hidden away when the operation went wrong iirc

I've absolutely no interest in this birth myself but some folk do so this is thread-worthy for that fact alone.

Maybe I'm mistaken but every time I see you post on a thread it's some snide, sarcastic put down. Must be great to believe yourself to be so superior.

It’s more than sad. Bordering on criminal. Faking someone’s death.

But you know it’s those lovely hard working royals.

The law, sure it’s only for the proles.

That's only the tip of the iceberg regarding that shower.

I really think the attention British people pay to this sort of stuff is indicative of the Brexit mentality. It's mind numbing stuff. I wish the family and the baby well, but in a country where you can work and struggle to pay basic bills I think it's a bit low brow to celebrate the birth of someone who will receive huge tax payer benefits for the rest of his/her life.

Edit: This is apparently her third child....

Ah here.... This thread is just a snide put down.

JFK had something of a lobotomy performed on him as well, in his final moments.

But it means he no longer has to ask Mrs Saxe-Coburg-Gotha for permission to get married.

The gradual aging of a newborn is inversely proportional to how far you can throw them.

It's not a job at all. He just turns up at these events for exposure.
