Free Naming and Branding Consultants and Resources

Posh and Becks are 'celebrities' (but who isn't these days?). Beck's is a consummate footballer, seemingly quite a nice well-adjusted bloke (which is some achievement in the celebrity world) but not the brightest thing on two legs (in which respect, some might argue, he is indeed virtual royalty.....). Posh is.....well, not awfully posh. Enough said.

To say we Brits treat them as 'virtual royalty' is about as accurate as saying all Canadians want to be RCMPs or speak french as their first language....well...'chacun a son gout' I guess....

I know that we ex-imperialists probably deserve most of what we get, but don't tar us with the brush of seeing a coupla minor celebs as royalty.....

Now, when it comes to Royalty per se, if you want a debate about just how great a system it is to have your head of state unelected but without a shred of power instead of the opposite that most of the rest of the world has chosen to suffer - just let me know.....

(and now Senor Beckham has gone to join a spanish team, I guess El Palacio Beckingham would be more appropriate)
