The Queen’s Christmas Broadcast


Above is the annual Christmas Broadcast from Her Majesty, the Queen of New Zealand (and other countries). A few years ago, the Queen stopped doing ordinary speeches and started doing these—well, Royal Infomercials.

Still, I bet the former colonials in the United States don’t get to see this, so I feel duty bound, as a dual national, to make it available to my countrymen of both nations. Or, something like that…
