The Crown. You think the exchange of property has been politely arranged through the Land Registry since the first Brython clonked his annoying boss man on the head?

Mate you can't describe the Norman invasion as an 'armed revolt'. That's just not what what the word 'revolt' means.

I'm talking about people except the Crown. 1066 and all that reset everything. Otherwise who's patronage would I be referring to?
