Trucking Funt Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 It seems that even the toffs have waved the white flag to the man haters after the craven dismissal of one of its teachers Will Knowland for refusing to take down a lecture from his youtube channel which challenged radical feminist dogma. The Duke of Wellington is alleged to have said that the Battle of Waterloo was won on the playing fields of Eton. 200 years later it would appear that Eton has become a breeding ground for emasculation and cowardice. @Earl of Punkape would you care to comment? https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2020/11/28/eton-students-revolt-free-speech-row-escalates/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just a shame they arrived so late because Napoleon had given them a hiding a couple of days before at Ligny. The Duke was ashamed to have been born in Ireland. He fucking hated the place.

Penny Farthing Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 He went to the diocesan school in Trim when at Dangan, Mr Whyte's Academy when in Dublin, and Brown's School in Chelsea when in London. He then enrolled at Eton College, where he studied from 1781 to 1784. His loneliness there caused him to hate it, and makes it highly unlikely that he actually said "The Battle of Waterloo was won on the playing fields of Eton", a quotation which is often attributed to him. Moreover, Eton had no playing fields at the time. In 1785, a lack of success at Eton, combined with a shortage of family funds due to his father's death, forced the young Wellesley and his mother to move to Brussels.

ChildeHarold Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 TF's forelock is moist with dribble. His flat cap limp with generous doffing. His mouth dry with class inferiority complex. His throat hoarse from shouting hurrah hurrah hurrah my betters. I look down on TF. TF looks down on Stubby Peckers We both look up to King Billy. He knows his place.

If it wasn’t for a bit of civilisation from our chaps you fuckers would still be eating each other. Ok, there might of been a bit of cuntish heavy handedness along the way, but I’d imagine dealing with your average halfwit paddy even the meekest red coat would give him a slap let alone crack his shit filled skull with his Brown Bess/lee Enfield.

In the 1980s one Peter Cooke did a send up of the Judge's Summing up in the libel trial where the Judge said that Mary Archer was fragrant.
