How to survive the jubilee weekend – for republicans

  1. A box of tissues, alcohol and playing a Radiohead album?

    Surely all 100 of them can support eachother?

  2. There are loads of anti jubilee/royal family events going on where I live. I’m sure there will be other cities which have similar events

  3. My exceedingly twee Bath neighbourhood is going overdrive with very well funded publicity. Already one can’t move for bunting and pictures of Liz. One has a giant b/w profile with “God bless her” in large letters.

    I see the BBC is already in full turbo sycophancy mode.

    I think I’ll put the famous Sex Pistols image in the window and fuck off down the road to Bristol’s anti-monarchy punk festival!

  4. I’m neither/or, and I’m only going to the street party cos it’s literally outside my house, there will be cake, and the little’un can try her first bouncy castle.

  5. We’ve already missed our chance for the best way to enjoy the jubilee: start a bunting company.

  6. I never knew the jubilee would be so big. Like half the posts on askuk are genuinely about parties. But I realised I happened to not be in the UK for both the 50th and 60th jubilees, so that’s probably why I’m surprised.

  7. I shall post “[The People Who Grinned Themselves To Death](https://youtu.be/5pXlQitfMZg)” by The Housemartins tomorrow morning and be done with it all. I have a metal bag with gate to dismantle with my angle grinder. It should keep me busy for a few hours.

  8. Going for a barbeque and house party later today.
    Not a Royalist by any means, largely indifferent to them to be honest.
    But going to enjoy these next 4 days.
    Of course when communities come together it reminds those people who are a socially ostricized and friendless that in the real world nobody actually cares to interact with them.
    That’s the real reason for all the salt across the UK subs about the jubilee.

  9. What are Royalists going to be hunting republicans for sport screaming “tally ho”?

    If not then there’s really nothing to it. Just enjoy the bank holiday.

    Also one thing that would help is not having a zoomed in picture of someone’s gob mid-chew beeb, but that’s more a general thing rather than for republucans.
