Satirical Article About The Royal Baby

Almost a week following the birth of Prince George of Cambridge, Royal observers have noted with some concern that the future British monarch has spent most of his time sleeping, crying, suckling his mother’s breast or defecating himself, with little to no time dedicated to understanding the needs of the realms over which he will one day reign.

Prince George, 6 days, had long been anticipated to herald the start of a new golden era for the British monarchy.

But so far he has yet to demonstrate any leadership potential, or much of anything else.

A source close to the Royal household says there was excitement on Saturday as the Prince turned his head towards a nearby television, seemingly moved by the plight of Cairo citizens featured on a news report.

The source said the Prince’s apparent humility initially reminded bystanders of his grandmother, Diana.

However, his intention was swiftly clarified by a sudden vomiting, which reminded observers more of his uncle, Harry.

Republican Movement chair Lewis Holden said the Prince’s attitude demonstrated a lack of regard for ordinary New Zealanders.

“If we are to believe what we are hearing out of England, someone changes the Prince’s nappy at least once a day, probably more,” he said. “Do we really want a head of state who is incapable of changing his own pants?

“Has the Prince ever had to work a day in his life? Has the Prince ever had to wait in traffic? Has the Prince ever had to use the automated checkouts at the supermarket, and not get caught keying Cadbury Roses in as pick ‘n’ mix? That whole thing can be tricky.”

But Monarchy NZ Chair Sean Palmer said the Prince’s life experience was one that many New Zealanders could identify with.

“The Prince understands what we’re about: having a few, chucking up over ourselves, then falling asleep,” he said. “When you think about it, he’s already living the kiwi dream.”
Concern after future monarch revealed to be useless infant who won

Just to note: The site is a small New Zealand project that only started this year. It's pretty crazy that they are getting 1k+ Facebook likes in 6 HOURS of posting the article.

I'm sure a lot of us internet marketers could take a leaf out of their book.

    Yep, l can relate to that!

    It never ceases to amaze me, how women's mags, papers and the media, runs stories about this!

    Its a baby!!!!!!!

    If it was a three headed monster l could understand, but what are people hoping to see, a baby that looks exactly like any other!!!!

    But l do understand the fact that it has a silver spoon in it's mouth, but the baby itself, makes no sense to me!


    I suppose that if l was a parent and a baby was my center of attention l might get it?


    But still a baby is a baby, and l suppose it explains why there are so many baby jokes around, enough said!

        They are. That's why it's a satire.
