These people didn't believe in Britain. Now they, and their families, have paid the price. Britain never forgets.

Don't be like them - go to work. Work sets you free.

If they kept the hat somewhere and formally invested it with all the power of the Crown then they wouldn't need to bother again.

Now personally I'd go for something that embodies some more of the main features of a monarch instead:
  • Large recognizable hat
  • Big stick through which authority is extended
  • Symbol of the nation
  • Earthly avatar of some old Levantine deity
and just have a big clockwork Mr Punch in the Palace of Westminster


You put one of those big old pennies in and turn the handle and it goes "wololo Parliament has legitimacy, Britain is a real country" while waving the stick around and that's that.

The ancient Mesopotamian civilization ran on the legitimacy of wooden god-puppets during festivals like Akitu, and the Romans reported people having hydraulic deities with various moving parts, so it's got legs (even if you need a couple of coathanger wires to move them).

imo stick her old spitting image puppet on top of a solar-powered roomba and send it off to bounce and handwave around britain as it sinks to its rightful place beneath the waves

I have an interview tomorrow!

Sadly it's an internal one for a business analysis/management role (I have zero experience or interest in the actual team management side). It would be a decent pay bump and I get on pretty well with all levels of management here, but it'll definitely be of the 'talk about the projects you've run!' kind and ehhhhh. I mainly applied so the role wouldn't go to a person worse than me :v:

Good luck mate. Be honest and make sure you think of at least one good question to ask them before going in. Also, talk a little bit slower than you usually would from the start, it'll give you more time to think and also make you less likely to trip over words and make mistakes.
