re: #61 Zimriel

Since Morrissey is dissing Cromwell and the current dynasty, and touting his Irishness, he’s almost certainly a partisan of James II and the Jacobites. I’d not understood that part of the song until you mentioned it.

(I’m sympathetic to royalism myself, but the Stuarts - whose rightful property the Crown is - also had the misfortune to be the biggest duds in British dynastic history. They weren’t much good even as Kings of Scotland.)

The part I did understand at the time I posted, was the bit about wanting to be publicly patriotic without people calling him a racist for it.

The Stuarts came to the crown by marriage when the last male heir to the Scottish throne died by horse wreck.
Stuarts never amounted to much.
