...in the form of a new yacht. Are they out of their fucking minds? There must be a sub in this for someone. Perhaps along the lines of what the nation should give the Queen and how we rustle up the cash. Maybe we could scrap Children in Need and all do wacky fund-raising stunts so that the woman who has everything can be given a little bit more.

It’s one tory, not all of them. Can’t see what’s wrong with refitting the old ‘Britannia', myself; it would give work to a shipyard, at least. Although it would probably be a German shipyard, knowing how things go these days.

It's in the Guardion, so it could just be a spellign mistake, and it should have been "Give her a Watch for her 60th"... maybe a nice pulszar.

Britannia's a good idea, though we need a referendum on it with an 'any shipyard but a Scottish one' option
failng the yacht, perhaps an iTunes card?

I might give it a go anyway...
I'm thinking Gove accepting that although he tried to put some thought into a nice present for the Queen, he's likely to just get her some flowers and chocolates.
I've given it a go:

I liked the line; "what do you give a person who has everything except a boat"
