  • That happens.. I'm not a native speaker of English :P Anyway, thanks :)

  • 0:53 - What does he say?? Please, help, I'm doing subtitles to that piece FOR A GRADE!

  • @88dancehall "...and we can't thank her enough for that. Thankfully she has private estates that she can retreat to, to recuperate from the requirements of waving."

  • @88dancehall ? How could you not understand that?

  • Am I the only one who thought they meant the band Queen?

  • My mom told me that the queen is no longer able to pay for her utilities. Serves the bitch right

  • @Wutwut1n1 very tragic and so sad: Queen tried to use state poverty fund to heat Buckingham Palace

    Ministers were asked if money earmarked for schools, hospitals and low-income families could be used to meet soaring fuel bills

  • Why did I had to sign in to view this? It has nothing offensive in it (at least I didn't notice anything).

  • ehm sesy girl with a nice personality kiss

  • Actually I've got a fact not all British people are obese and not all of us don't like the queen but some people do so coming from me because I am British I think I know !!!!!

  • Shows how stupid England society is to pay this woman big bucks to wave at people.

  • @Hazza101 Many of the 'english society' find the royal family outdated and vile. Anyway, the US 'society' isn't exactly a model example for the rest of the world. You guys are fat, religious nutcases who pointlessly carry guns around and are arrogant and loud (you can always spot an american with their stupidly loud mouth in public - it's obscene) so don't give me that crap about 'english society'.

  • @TheColaCandy Yes I hate them American infidels.

  • @TheColaCandy

    British people are pretty fat and obscene, too. Plus there is the whole imperialist past where the British killed and subjugated millions. The aftereffects of which are still rippling throughout the world. But on the other hand you guys did just pass a law that got rid of the sexist edge of male heirs to the throne. Certainly living up to the slogan, "Britain, surging ahead to the 19th century".

  • @Thironfalls How would you know?You've never been to the UK and you've probably only ever seen British people depicted in the media as stereotypes. The royal family is not in the forefront of British peoples' minds. They don't care about them. How can you as an american call the British fat? Are you fucking kidding me? The americans are the fattest people on earth! If you go back into the past most people at some point have committed atrocities of sorts, so it's not relevant to us today at all!

  • @TheColaCandy

    Actually it is pretty relevant, considering the British were still trying to hold on to their colonies up until the 1960s. After seeking independence, the British carelessly through together nations with idiotic borders. Throwing together people of opposing ethnic tribes. Its why so many of these modern day third world nations are torn apart by civil war.

    UK exports reality tv across the world, show casing obscene trashy culture. U can look up stats proving UK obesity crisis.

  • @Hazza101 At least 65% of the population in England can not stand the bitch, stop being deluded by Hollywood fantasy. 

  • @Hazza101 You're a prime example of America spending more money on war than on education.

  • hmz Tell me your fantasies and let's make them a reality

  • cool Cause life is a game...so let`s play it to the full

  • HOT chick!!!!

  • fuck the old saggy bag of a mother fucker stupid fucked up dry vagina toothed mother fucker.

  • I can wave. Maybe I should apply to be a royal.

  • ha ha this is hilarious..

    her arm must be sore.

  • waving like the jedi mind trick

  • she doesn't age, spooky

  • Brits are dictator faggots.They dont need to be...alive

  • hello cheeky! u look a lot fitter than u r in the coins xD

  • i want to see you dead, but first your children. dead,. you think you are leader, but you lead no one. lets see how many dead of your people before you desist. you bomb afganastan and breed like rats. you have no right so says the god of lords.

  • i wanna SKULLFUCK this old evil witch!!!

  • @EITrollo theres a bill going through congress to prevent that.

  • Comment removed

  • augh britain not to sound like a troll but in all honesty I really think your country is foolish for still having a monarch, you waist millions of pounds on them every year just so they can stay happy in there grand luxurious estates and lovely lifestyles while you could be investing that in your economy and in the lowest of your society to reduce poverty that to be honest should be more of a concern to you than it is presently I mean she has a pointless role and that goes for all monarchies

  • @Pielord09 - You sound like a communist. What is to you what we decide to spend our money on? Your nation chooses to spend a billion a week bombing the shit out of the middle east. Why don't you use that money to open soup kitchens?

    Most Brits believe it is better to keep politics and the ceremonial duties of state separate. When the world looks at the U.S. they see Bush or Obama etc as representing everything the U.S. stands for. We choose to separate the duties state and daily politics.

  • @WillShakespeare2007 Your a prejudice idiot to assume I'm american and I'm not so well done at making a pointless argument, seriously well done lmao

  • @Pielord09 - Why would assuming you were American be prejudiced? Oh I see you're a Muslim so your used to calling anyone that disagrees with you prejudiced or racist.

    Muslims pray to an invisible man in the sky and believe in an invisible heaven after death. How much money they waste on buildings etc for their invisible man? Sell those and give the money to the poor as there is no evidence you are doing anything but wasting your time. I would rather have my taxes go to the Queen than you lot.

  • @WillShakespeare2007 well that confirms it your an idiot, your just going off on a complete tangent to the point I was making, I said nothing about muslims and your using that as a poor excuse to cover up the fact of you being prejudice. Here prejudice means to pre judge someone or something, and thats what you did instantly assuming I was american based on my opinion alone, listen I'm not gonna get involved in a stupid online argument with you cause I wont give you the satisfaction, grow up man

  • @Pielord09 Just to point out while your comment is wrong and completely based off assumption watch this /watch?v=bhyYgnhhKFw&feature=f­vwrel

    Or if you are too lazy to watch the whole thing:

    1) it costs the taxpayer 65 pence to maintain the monarchy.

    2) the government earns £200 million of revenue from royal land

    3) (and this isn't in the video) The monarchy plays an important role in diplomacy and international relations.

    Now you can admit you're sorry, you're wrong and you've learnt something.

  • HOT chick

  • ... and your fellow Britains. WTF?

  • Does the queen and her family go to the loo like the rest of humanity or not?

  • @ummglick the queen never shits!

  • The best part are the headlines at the bottom of the screen:)

  • @62billion12 all our inbred slags are BORN in vans in west Virginia.....

  • Seriously people.....The Onion......is a FAKE news network.........how ar people still confusing this with legit news....lol

  • LOL You gotta watch this!

    youtube.com/watch?v=HsFcWqETCu­E

  • have to wonder how many of those thumb downs are from people that though this was a real news broadcast...

  • Oh WOW ! like you need a PHD for waving ha ha ha !! Any 3 year old girl can do just as well AND DO IT WITHOUT ANY HYPOCRISY !!

  • The Royals are Inbred Satanists FACT!

  • My favorite is from Queen Mary of Tek. Her's was very commanding, almost like she was conducting an orchestra.

  • Oh so poor brain-washed British guy.

    This News reader lady is very smart.

  • is this a joke??!!! a report about waving!!! really???!!!

  • @shapolfab lol yes its a joke the onion news only makes joke news

  • @shapolfab I hope it is

  • Oh pleeeeeeze! Compare David Icke Charlie Veitch these fucking blue bloods must be shot!

  • These Royals stole wealth from Subcontinent but its history now :-(

  • I believe the queen is visiting Ireland quite soon. I would like a British perspective on the reaction of the british people if Reps were to assasinate her?? Not that I would condone it. Shes a nobody really & not worth the price of a bullet, but still & all, id imagine it would stir up some shit storm

  • @borledx I think assassination should be reserved only for victims who are below the age of retirement. Otherwise is just rude. What have the Irish got against the Queen anyway? Seriously though (my mother's side are from Glandore, Cork) I don't think that the Republic of Ireland could cope with the consequences. Irish people are all over the world and are well loved by everyone (including the English)... But if they killed the Queen? Ouch! That'd be a sad day. That's my English perspective :)

  • @McPrfctday I never said i was in favour of killing her & most irish people couldn't care less about the queen anyway. They just view her as some spoiled stuck up brat. Still & all the majority would be horrified if anything happened. Just by coincidence i was reading the paper today & the gardai have intelligence that the RIRA r planning to fire an RPG at her motorcade. It will prob come 2 nothing but it just shows that reps r more than capable of kiling her if they got the chance.

  • @borledx I didn't think you were in favour of it for a second... you were just wondering what would happen (I can't spell hyperthetical dammit). I agree, it would be a shit storm. :D

  • @McPrfctday Ya there be a lot of huffing & puffing for sure there be major crackdowns on Reps. But Reps would still survive & might even gain strenght because of killing such a prestige target. As for the consequences for the ROI, i dont believe for a second, the brits would take any action against us, it would be the height of stupidity.

  • @borledx yeah, I'd doubt there'd be any 'action', apart from action against the person who did it. But there'd be a different attitude toward the Irish worldwide. For many places it'd be like "the Jews killed Jesus" lol. It's just part of the stupid tribal way that humans think. Imagine a Jamaican killed John Lennon. Reggae and Jamaican fame would never have been what it was. It's a shame that one individual can change the fate of a whole 'people' but it happens. Blah blah, not trying to preach.

  • @McPrfctday I think you overestimate worldwide opinion of the royal family. The Irish diaspora consists of 100's of millions of people & I doubt very much they'd be 1 bit bothered, quite the oppisite for some of them. As for the rest of the world, they mostly think Royalty is a crock of shit & wouldnt care much either. Even the ones that care could hardly blame the whole irish nation for the crimes of a few fanatics. Every country has fanatics & people accept that as areality of life.

  • I love it when I find new to me onion vids, makes life worth living

  • Who gives a shit.

  • Please Watch My William and Kate Marrage proposal interview

  • GOD SHAVE THE QUEEN!!!!

  • when will people realize that this clip was meant as a joke?

  • lol 9/11 is happening and she is waving..

  • NO! ALL THAT HAND WAVING HAS MADE HER THE STRONGEST OLD LADY IN THE WORLD! YOUR KILLING A PART OF HISTORY!

  • I spoke to the Queen today about what Diana said to me today

  • Dear America,

    Please stop calling my Queen the Queen of England... She is the Queen of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland too which is the UK (United Kingdom)

    love from,

    Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

  • @glasgow1234

    we're america, we do what we want.

  • @OnlyTheWeakNeedHelp

    Are all americans as immature and ignorant as you then?

  • Guys if the queen has no power, I mean she can dissolve our parliament and is commander in chief of the royal forces, BUT I mean look at it, the cost of education is increasing, unemployment rates are increasing, we're in depth, and then loads of tax payers monies go behind sustaining them, I KNOW they bring in lots of monies via tourism, but this day and age do we really need a monarchy?

  • @dr9106 Without her we will end up with a polititian in total control. POLITITION- someone who is power hungry, corrupt, crooked and specialises in telling lies. Also it would feel even less like Britain than it already does if we abolish the monachy. Don't forget this women fought in WW2 for us and she's done a lot more as have many membors of the Royal Family. We may be in some deep shit but she is one of the only dignified things we have left.

  • I have to ask, why on earth is the queen(i refuse to use capital 'q' as I don't hold any respect for her) visiting Ireland(capitals there lol)? Didn't her and her ancestprs spend enough time there already?!?!? Piss off liz and leave Ireland to the Irish, you tried to occupy the place, you got chased out, for the most part, take your hiding and don't come back.

  • @BlowDeBloodyDoorsOff what does it say about Ireland if the proudest moment in your countries history is using terrorism?

  • @sykofreak18 actually we don't all like the queen and you're right the people who her are blind and creepy...

  • Charles will get better. He will get much, much better. His grandfather, king Edward stammered. He fought it and led the empire during World War II. Charles will cope. Mark my words.

  • @TheNorvegicus Charles grandfather was George VI. The Edward you are referring to is Edward VIII, and he was his grand-uncle.

    Anyways, if the British people wish to pass the line on one generation, why not? The Monarchy is there to serve the people to its best. "First thee, then us" - Portuguese royal motto (bad translation, I know... but you get the picture).

  • I did anal with the queen yesterday. I didnt like it.

  • @LukeQ1991 I hope you wore protection, I hear she's minging!!!!!!

  • And yet it is amazing her handwaving has managed so much more these last 50 years than the world's leading politicians. I mean look at that magnificent hand waving skill.

  • the royal family don't do anything except take your tax money

  • @sacrosanct8 they dont take a lot of tax away

  • @sacrosanct8 Yes, because Presidents are free of tax. What a bunch of idiots.

  • Stop arguing and just have a goddam chuckle.

  • What's the problem with that? When I was the reigning queen of the underground cat kingdom of Leopardia, I waved to my feline subjects all the time! Well, I did use my tail, of course, but it's the principle of the thing, damnit! I even wave to the other members of Ronin Force from a distance, though Lungfish always ignores me. He really needs to clean out his tank...

  • Oh great Elizabeth, we, in sweden, know that the brits and the swedes have had varrying relationships, but we want you to know.

    When you die, we will all mourn, you will be missed

  • tee-hee! THATS FUNNY!!! 

  • This is why i love the onion, this is hilarious and theres some very serious satire going on at the same time. truly the onion is god

  • why does evryone love the queen she doesnt do shit, shes a waste of money and time

  • God I hate the royal family

  • Prince William looks like the quintessential elitist prick

  • NO! I love queen elizabeth! lol, but the royals no longer have real power anymore, so I guess being awesome is all they can do now........THAT OK WITH ME! :) Long Live the Queen!

  • @snakedemon11 She still wields power ! She still has the power to dismiss ministers (inc. the prime minister), issue and withdraw passports, change the sentence of a convictee, make treaties and declare war among many others !

  • @freakminer64 She still has the power to disolve the parliament last I heard.

  • @HalaLV hence, the "among many others".

  • @snakedemon11 If the royal family wanted to, they could be put back in power...

  • @snakedemon11 I wouldnt say she has no power. She can still desolve any political party and still give an MP the boot. She also has millions of roylist followers and is head of the comman wealth of nations. I still think if they really really wanted to the royals could do what ever they wanted. They still hold emense power an i think choose not to use it simply outta respect for the people.

  • @snakedemon11 She has the power to accept a Prime Minister she can actually reject them.

  • u gota love the queen. if not ..........your a nazi lol

  • off with the queen head she is fucking stupid cunt she will never rule over me she is a war lord criminal a arrest her and pit her in jail for life she has killed over 400 thousand pepole in IRAK with her stupid dumb down soldiers that would take any order even if the queen says shot youer own kid in the head

  • @aholydepression Pleasure to make your acquaintance. I do love meeting people as optimistic as you. Now, let me tell you a bit about the queen. She is a figurehead. She does not have the power to declare war, or send soldiers to any place. It is completely the parliament that decides that. So blame them instead, instead of the sweet old lady who has been waving at us for 54 years! Surely even that must move you to tears.

  • @aholydepression Wow. Just... wow.

    Were your parents siblings?

  • The Queens a tax leeching cunt. Have a nice day.

  • first stupid bitch queenie arse to wave her fanny to fawning peasants

  • I Know Right lol

  • i always find myself loling at the idiots having fights in comments xD

  • @QuantumQuacks And your English is pretty decent, but it's off. You need to study more and wave your silly half-witted banner about royalty less. And then instead of talking about something that the media decides for you, maybe go live in a desert.

  • @QuantumQuacks Is R2D2 your grandfather?

  • @QuantumQuacks And you're must be one of those sheep closeminded, if not true then tell me what makes her by society? and I did not mention reptilians .... lol :S

  • What does the queen? smiles from time to time, send a Christmas message, receives the money of fools and laughs from them. wake up sheep!

  • This video is SO deep. Reading the comments I see a lot of depth as well. Not any particular post, but more of the body of posts as a whole ... it speaks profound volumes that, save for identifying oneself by nationality, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between "custom-ers" haha.

    Watching stars.

    "My God, it's full of stars"

    Have you heard of A Stargate Conspiracy? Ishtar Gate conspiracy? Better read the Bible more closely. Jesus is the savior of the world, without a doubt. C**

  • @monkeygoodcipherbad1 Oh wow...someone who thinks of themselves as somehow able to see through it all because "jesus loves" them... What an honor to finally see that on youtube.

  • Well, why not congratulate the queen on her success with waving? It's not like she does anything else

  • @chickenruler Guess what? It's fake...

  • @trakomako Because they are americans, pretending to be english.

  • The royals have beautiful hands? What a joke. This guy is an idiot.

  • This is classic example of American ignorance of Britain. America not understanding the difference of Britain, England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland; and, America attempting poor English accents!

    Good ol' America across the pond!

  • @chickenruler

    You know it's the BRITISH royle family, not the English royal family. We know she's the Queen of England.

  • @SecularTechnology

    Do you even know the difference between England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland? It appears not!

    Britain is Scotland, England and Wales, although this is geographically. When speaking about Britain as a country, you include Northern Ireland into it all as well.

    The UK is Northern Ireland and Great Britain. All countries are equal in the UK, England doesn't ruler over them.

    Elizabeth is the Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland(full name for the UK).

  • @chickenruler

    Yeah I know what the U.K. is. What's your point.

  • @chickenruler Right...and Scotland actually doesn't have any rights any longer. The Brit royal family is the biggest murderer in history. In fact almost every single thing that is now shitty in the world can be traced to the British royals.

  • @nakedvolleyball That includes the formation of the US.

  • @nakedvolleyball and what are you basing that statement on if you dont mind me asking?...because presently now the british royal family isn't harming anyone. Also.....when was the last time did the royal family commit murder?

  • @chickenruler And you're a classic example of European arrogance and assumption of America.

  • @stfwho

    And you are quite the hypocrite!  You seem to assume that Europeans are often arrogant, when they are far from it. American media constantly pushes this 'arrogant European' stereotype down your throat. Wait, was I arrogant there? No. I was honest. It's a fact that many Americans can't place Australia or France on map.

  • @chickenruler And also tons of Americans felt utterly ashamed that so many dumbasses thought Australia was North Korea. You're the classic example of European arrogance and assumption of America, trust me. "good ol America across the pond", condescending in this context. I don't see how in the blue fuck you consider me a hypocrite. There are tons of Europeans who give Americans the credit they deserve. AND YOU AIN'T ONE OF EM! Get it now?

  • @stfwho

    No, no I don't. I know that most Americans are smart and know the difference between North Korea and Australia; but, I know that compared to other countries education is appalling. Also, 'good ol' America across the pond' was not supposed to be condescending or anything of the sort! I apologise if it sounded that way. Lastly, you were hypocritical because you were saying that Europeans are generally arrogant when YOU were appearing arrogant by saying that!

  • @chickenruler No, I was saying that there are some Europeans who don't give Americans the credit they deserve because of what stupidity they see, such as this video. Also, there are plenty of Americans who have stupid opinions about Europeans because of what they see. For example, your original comment is not doing the European image any favors. I never said "Good ol' Europe across the pond", because I didn't want to imply the whole area is like that.

  • @stfwho

    My original comment was supposed to be taken light-heartedly, not in serious manner.

    America has two sides to it: smart and stupid. America's massive population means that by chance there is going to be some smart people in amongst you all;but, by chance there are also going to be many stupid people, the ones featured on TV. When countries look at America and are looking for some laughs they will poke fun at you. When countries look at America looking for science they will applaud you.

  • @chickenruler One thing is for sure, British "humor" is often some degredation in disguise. I lived in London for 8 years. Many, many really good and honest full-hearted people. Also, quite a few who had nothing but sarcastic comments about everyone. So, you might want to think about what you are actually thinking and saying and meaning. Out of context it certainly appears you were not being benevolent at all.

  • @stfwho

    Americans don't understand this image of their own country so, understandably, they are often annoyed when we laugh at them. We laugh in good-spirit and never mean to actually offend!

  • @chickenruler Not meaning to offend has nothing to do with whether you actually DO offend. I can say, hey, all Brits are cunts, not meaning to offend. I mean light-heartedly. You think that you're not going to be offended in general? It's like saying "I cheated on you honey, but it meant nothing."

  • @chickenruler Guess what..Most Americans are not actively educated (byt the system) in terms of other countries. Most Americans live in small towns and stay there. A few travel...as tourists, and don't learn anything that way. Then there are a few who travel and do something else...mostly because they want to appear different. If you go to the UK, France, Australia, ETC. you will find that most of the people in small towns are CLUELESS about the world. America just has a LOT of smaller places.

  • Comment removed

  • @chickenruler Does it make a difference if a person can actually name a country on a map? Do you think that that indicates their level of "worldliness"? Believe me, it has little to do with it. I know a LOT of Europeans who don't know maps all that well. And a LOT who also do. That fact has absolutely no bearing on what I would ascertain their level of intelligence to be. Learn to less superficial in how you decide to think. If that is actually your decision.

  • @stfwho You need to learn how to actually say what you mean in English, because that makes no sense.

  • @stfwho Is English your first language? Because you write horribly if so. If not, then maybe take more remedial course somewhere.

  • @chickenruler There are plenty of Brits who disdain royalty, so this is not an example of Americans misunderstanding anyone. And to show you how fucked up it all is, did you know that it is illegal in the UK to advocate the dissolution of the monarchy?

  • Wow, 605 people hurt their wrists waving.

  • Now than I think about it...unlesse you're waving a cab or getting somebody's attention waving is pretty fucking stupid .

  • @luc649 It's rare that people actually wave for other reasons than acknowledgment of another or to get an other person's attention.  so that statement is pretty fucking stupid.

  • Hahaha, "And waveth did he, King Edmund" Look under the picture on the old piece of paper

  • A complete and utter waste of skin, and a dead weight, do-nothing, no good pollution to the British population.

  • genius

  • the queen is an inbred skank sucking up air and giving Brits syphilis and probably other std's.

  • LOL I'm dying. Where do they come up with this!?!

  • go yankees!

  • What a freakshow

  • 604 people have cerebral palsy.

  • Did you see the queen wave? shes all like WOOOOOOOOOOOP!

  • a group of wankers :)

  • I headbutted the Queen's face.

  • The queen's a pampered individual with no power, she lives a pampered life purely because of who she is, that's not right in the 21st century. She says nothing while our country's invaded with limitless numbers of Africans and Asians to the point where we'll soon be out-numbered in our own country, it's only a matter of time after that our white race will be wiped out through race-mixing, there will be countless attacks & rapes commited against our people which could & should have been avoided.

  • @stepheng1483 The re3ason cunts like you spout your shit on the internet is that you are too cowardly to say this shit in the street. Get on a march and see how quickly the decent white member of your people turn up and kick your fucking head in. You should be happy the great British spirit is not dead. My grandfather killed fascist cunts like you in the war and I will be very happy to carry on the tradition. Just show your face and see.

  • @WillShakespeare2007 And you have the sack to throw down with him? Hardly. You're a typical internet tough talker who can never put your money where your mouth is.

  • @arthuronfacebook And you spend you time sticking up for racists? I can not even start to understand what motivates scum like you. What a sad fucking waste of skin you are.

  • @WillShakespeare2007 Did I say that? I've yet to meet one of you internet tough guys who actually took their tough talk to the street. That's all I'm saying.

  • @arthuronfacebook I am married to an Asian immigrant and have mixed race children in the UK. This guy's page is titled "white power" and he rants about hating Asians and accuses them of mass rape. I have a go at him and you jump in on his side - what does that make you?. This kind of guy my family have to face on the street all the time, so you know shit about me. These racist cowards spread this shit on the internet and that is why I told him to get on a march instead of hiding here.

  • @WillShakespeare2007

    "and accuses them of mass rape"

    Well, that part is actually quite true. History is fun.
