Rising Hegemon
The Queen should be given a new royal yacht – likely to cost at least £60m – as a way to help overturn Britain's mood of austerity, according to Cabinet minister [ed: EDUCATION SECRETARY!] Michael Gove.If ever conservative economic theories were demonstrated in the perfect example it is this one.
BTW, there's no evidence the Queen asked in any manner for a new royal yacht...she's not a Republican.

Ah, yes, just what the sinking British ship of state needs, a new royal yacht.
"Hail, Titanic, Titanic rules the waves!"
i thought the royal wedding was for that.
They're building the tallest building in Europe in London right now- isn't that enough of a bauble to uplift the populace?
"Austerity for the poor! Yachts for the rich!"
How come the rightwingers never want to run on that slogan?
