Yamis' allegiances
From norightturn:
A moral panic brought about by a female teacher traninee having communist allegiances "led to the passage of what is now s. 162 of the Education Act 1964, which requires all teachers to swear an oath of allegiance to the crown. The Act is still in force, and to this day teachers must swear to 'be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second, Her heirs and successors, according to law' - exactly as police and soldiers do."Good luck choking down that one Yamis! I know you're a big fan of both capitalism and the royal family, and have never engaged in seditious thought over a few beers! :)
