Queen in Golden Arches scandal!

A familiar face was spotted behind the counter of the Marble Arch McDonald's today. Her Majesty claimed she has been left with no option but to "flip the brown" as a result of the government refusing to increase the £15m it pays for the upkeep of her occupied palaces and the £7.9m Civil List which pays for her public functions. Ministers argue that, in the present economic climate, Whitehall budgets are already overstretched. Royal aides counter that Parliament has a constitutional duty to ensure the Queen is financially secure and that the Sovereign should not have to demean herself in this way. The burger chain refused to comment but has re-launched the Chicken Royale in an apparent dyslexic frenzy of inappropriate marketing.

It's a bloody DISGRACE!
I went in there this afternoon and she doesn't know WHAT she's doing - didn't even put the gerkins in my BigMac!
