what would happen in britain if someone would call the queen or prince philip guilty of bestiality, paedophilia and gang rape?

btw, böhmernmann himself agrees that he tested the limits (but only someone as mediocre as him considers toilet humour as valid satire)

Exactly!

Chances are nothing would happen if I posted this poem on facebook and substituted the Turkish dudes name for Charles.
