Junior Bake Off final was "coronation" themed. Ilhām, 10, was asked her opinion of the monarchy, I can't believe they aired her answer, but she gives me hope.

You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you
Best thing I've seen this morning! Bravo, kiddo, never lose that!
Right?
Watching it "live" yesterday my jaw just dropped, the kid before did the expected "yeah, I love the royals" and Harry Hill made a joke about maybe not wanting to go on holiday with some of them which I thought was already quite risque for a kids show, but then Ilhām comes out with that and it absolutely made my day. I have a feeling (and hope!) that's not the last we hear of her..
The kids are alright.
The Offspring would like to say otherwise
For as in absolute governments the King is law, so in free countries the law ought to be king; and there ought to be no other. But lest any ill use should afterwards arise, let the Crown at the conclusion of the ceremony be demolished, and scattered among the people whose right it is.

Lemmylemme eat cake! ... or whatever it is you are preparing.That little girl rocks!
Good for her!
Hope she baked a cake in the form of a guillotine
Isn't this on channel 4 now? Not really surprising considering they do the alter atuve Christmas message and have done since like the 90s.
Ch4 like to pretend to be progressive, and they absolutely do push boundaries more than the other channels, but under the thin veil they're just another neoliberal mouthpiece. So yeah, while it's not that surprising that of all the channels it's on 4, even for them, it's bolder than they would normally allow.
that kid's going places
Love his reaction,
😬
bravo and thank you.
That guy's condescending mugging with every reasonable statement she makes is infuriating.
As I've mentioned in other comments, the guy is openly ant-monarchy, his facial expressions aren't of derision, this is filler on a kids show, not a political interview. If he'd agreed with her the whole thing would have never made it to air.
This is about her, why can't we keep it that way?
And frankly, even without knowing he was anti-monarchy, those reactions didn't come off as condescending to me. Read it as surprise, and perhaps a little nervous she'd say something more that'd have to be cut, but not condescending. He's clearly smiling.
That's just the character he plays for his comedy, he's not actually disagreeing with her here. You could consider his facial expression to mean "That's a controversial opinion to air on a baking show", but only because if he didn't ape that response they'd probably not have sent it to air haha.
Uhhh...you should probably read about Harry Hill.
