Obsequious, servile and craven bootlicking anthem. Honestly not inappropriate for the UKkk.

Abolish the monarchy, dissolve the UK, and unite Ireland, all so that we won’t have to hear “God Save The King” again. Only “Flower of Scotland”, “Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau”, “Amhrán na bhFiann”, and “Jerusalem”, all of which are a million times better.

Now even without the UK, the same melody is also used by the national anthem of Liechtenstein. This being the case, I say Liechtenstein should get annexed by Switzerland, purely so that no-one will need to be reminded that the UK ever existed.

Tax haven with a monarchy, yeah, that’s reason enough. The Landtag has 25 seats and four parties: three of these, representing 22 seats, are slight variants of right-wing populist + liberal conservative + Christian democrat + monarchist. The remaining three seats belong to a social democratic party describing itself as green, secular, and multicultural… Which is, you guessed it, also monarchist.

There are also two parties in Liechtenstein without representation in the Landtag, one of which is yet another chud party, and the other of which is a more or less single-issue party against vaccines and COVID-19 lockdowns. And this is not to get into the defunct parties of Liechtenstein!

All in all, I think this says something about the Overton window of Liechtenstein. Like, Switzerland strikes me as also pretty shitty, but at least Switzerland is a real country, at least it has a communist party at all, and at least it has a sizeable “parliamentary left” that doesn’t support a monarchy.
