I tend to go along with ''ruftytufty' in this , the tower is concrete with steel ribbing, there is a lift inside that takes 7 minutes to reach the observation rooms, the working areas and main computer rooms. People work up there in the building. see ....................https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1qnS5gpX3I
Scotland has its own national song 'Flower of Scotland' and Wales has its own national anthem ' Mae hen wlad fy nhadau'. In Northern Ireland and England, "God Save the Queen" is still used as the official anthem.
yes but there are two official national anthems of the uk and two official languages. english and welsh, god save the queen and mae hen wlad fy nhadau.
But God save the King is the main anthem and the one used at big events, such as the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II or the coronation of King Charles III.
No, the whole comprises the parts and the parts compose the whole. Example: the Union comprises 50 states and 50 states compose the Union (thank you, American Heritage dictionary). “Is comprised of” is a less preferred construction.
Can you make "House of peers" and "The Right Honourable the Lords Spiritual and Temporal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland in Parliament assembled" acceptable for House of Lords?
I don't think anyone will type, "The Right Honourable the Lords Spiritual and Temporal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland in Parliament assembled" lol.
Both 'Land of Hope and Glory' and 'Rule Britannia' have extremely colonialist implications and probably aren't suitable to represent the country any more. Not that 'God Save the King' doesn't have its own issues, but still.
So you're telling me only 40% of people know the longest river in this country, and only 51% know the tallest mountain, yet..... 85% know that new prime minister's name!??
i had completely forgot what the national anthem was, but i know it started with god, then i remembered something but instead i put “god saved the queen” instead of “god saved the king”

Having an office or two inside doesn't seem to be decisive for towers to become buildings.

I love the idea to do a Country Trivia Quiz

Well, at least it doesn't have the name in it.
