New Royal baby 'is another blood-sucking British monarch' whose birth should not be celebrated, says Russian politician
Vladimir Zhirinovsky, 67, says he is not happy about the Cambridges' baby
Leader of Russia's Liberal Democrats said baby will 'suck Russia's blood'
Ultranationalist is known as something of a showman in Russian politics
King George V was first cousin of Tsar Nicholas II, blamed by many for the downfall of the Romanov dynasty in 1917

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's newborn son will 'suck the blood' of Russia in the mid-21st century and should therefore not be celebrated, a controversial Russian politician declared today.
Vladimir Zhirinovsky, the leader of the nationalist Liberal Democrat Party, declared 'I don't care about the heir' before accusing the British monarchy of 'destroying our state'.
The outspoken politician made his attention-grabbing comments in an interview with the state-run newspaper Rio Novosti.

Not happy: Outspoken politician Vladimir Zhirinovsky, 67, says the new baby will 'suck Russia's blood'
Quoted in the International Business Times, he said : 'The British monarchy... destroyed our state. Today, our opposition activists are there, so that's why there's no joy.
'That is why the birth of another British monarch, who will suck our blood somewhere in the mid-21st century, cannot bring us any kind of happiness.'
However Russian's official response was more positive, with the Kremlin congratulating the Queen and welcoming her new great-grandson.

The British and Russian royal families are linked via King George V, who was first cousin of Tsar Nicholas II, whom some blame for the downfall of the Romanov dynasty in 1917.
Tsar Nicholas II was ill-prepared to rule when he inherited the crown from his father and eventually abdicated in favour of his brother, Grand Duke Michael Alexandrovich.
The Provisional Government then took over, effectively ending the Romanov dynasty's rule over Russia.

I have never been able to fathom the conservative love affair with the royal family.

Righties are supposed to believe you make your own way in life by individual effort.

But they are obsessed by people Undecided

who live a pampered existence simply because they slipped out from between a certain pair of legs.

Amusing, but also pathetic. One rule for "royalty" and a different one for everybody else.

Not as pathetic as making sweeping generalizations about what people of different political persuasions think about the useless dam royal family.

Now that is really pathetic.

To be fair, royals of yesteryear have had to be shrewd diplomats, negotiators, politicians and generals. They may have been born into the position, but they had to earn the right to keep it...or lose their heads.

Monty Python sums it all up:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071853/quotes

Quote:

King Arthur: I am your king.

Woman: Well I didn't vote for you.

King Arthur: You don't vote for kings.

Woman: Well how'd you become king then?

King Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. THAT is why I am your king.

Dennis: [interrupting] Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government.

Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

Dennis: Oh, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you.

Conservatives also believe in rank and tradition.
But, in all honesty, I like the royals because they annoy "progressives".

Surprising they didn't call the kid Mohammed as this is the most popular baby name in Britain today, even more so since 9/11 and so many terrorists being called Mohammed, and to think all that trouble they went to in the 40's to stop Adolph from becoming the most popular baby name Grin

... the Battle of Britain, what a complete waste of time that was, took the Brits a while to surrender but they finally got around to it, maybe they had never heard of complacency back then.
