I done this a while ago but it is my favourite peice of art so far. It's very metaphorical and is about capitalism and empire and stuff. There's the queen, sitting safely in her giant snail which slides around, sucking the money of the world and leaving everything else in a state of dissarray and stuff like that. There are lots of little suttle things there that are quite meaningful too. I think it's quite nice.

In my opinion she looks too friendly to be evil. Me too,how could the queen be evil? All she's doing is keeping the world safe and making new laws to stop people from doing the bad things. So i say she is not using all the money for cars,food,tax,clothes (ect) she uses some of it for the cansel and for us to buy things with.

Lol...I'm not too much into all government and politics, but I can say...I really despise the Queen's voice. >_@ And then people who come to Britain think we all speak like the Queen. XD Which, I guess is true in some cases...but the majority of the time its not. n_n* *cough* I digress...its a funny piece. Snails are cool. LEVEL UP ! ! I do think she went a bit overboard making a £3 million concrete water thing for Diana. I mean, you could've cured a country's famine for that amount of moolah. Bleh...I'll never understand why people do that.

He is just saying how some are better off in their lives, (the wealthy for example) while others have to struggle just for 1/3 of that pleasure or even less (the commonwealth). The Queen is a good example because she has many riches and is able to attend to all her living needs and more, while the working class has less money to do what someone like the Queen does for themselves. Kind of touching when I think of this picture.

I don't think she's evil, I just don't think that she deserves that much power and money for simply being born into the royal family. It sort of made sense in the oldem days when the monarch was the absolute ruler of the country because the money was put to good use for the rest of the nation. But now it just seems dumb. And I don't think she is "keeping the world safe", or not even just England. She doesnt make new laws, she just needs to approve of them before they are passed.
This sort of thing is why I think Britain should go communist.

Thats true all the other poor people are struggling for money,and we have alot but not alot like the queen,why can't she give harlf of her money to the poor? It would be a good idear....but the thing is thay might buy guns and drugs with all that money...

I'm really beginning to think you are the Eddie I think you are. I don't know anything about the Queen, so meh. All I can say is just because she's the Queen, she doesn't have the absolute authority the Monarchy used to have.

So i say she is not using all the money for cars,food,tax,clothes (ect) she uses some of it for the cansel and for us to buy things with. The Queen basically does nothing, She doesn't make laws, or go around fighting crime in a spandex jumpsuit, or really anything. I woulsn't say the Queen herself is a leecher, its just the rest of the hangers on so far removed that leech everything. thats my opinion, of course. And about that Diana Memorial thing, that has to be one of the biggest wastes of money, beaside the Millenium Dome. Its... a moat. Recently there hasn't even been any WATER in it, its been dried up. I'm for keeping the Royal Family myself, just getting rid of all the thrice removed hangers on.

Funny how the queen is sucking up dollars and not pounds.

Ha ha ha, that's funny Kooper. I really don't know the Queen of EBritain. I didn't even know they still had Kings and Queens yet.
