Queen Elizabeth II

I'm not ready for the months of public grieving that will be enforced on us.

This.

Seems her favourite residence as always been Balmoral and her love of Scotland.
Very telling she's moved up there recently

Same. Reading this thread make my head spin. I will never understand royalists as none of it makes any sense at all.

Her state funeral will be magnificent. Nobody does ceremony better than us.

It will also help to bring us together in a time where we’re permanently divided.

 

[Blue and true]

I have some semblance of respect for her, her reign can be commended. But she was very much one of a kind. The rest of her family are detestable; a monarchy should not be accommodated into any modern society/democracy. I mean for Christ's sake we're talking about families being pushed into fuel poverty this winter. Can nobody see how distasteful that dichotomy is?

I won't be shedding any tears, and in my opinion anyone that does needs to seriously realign their outlook.

Lesson to Liz 2, look after her subject's like the state has looked after her and they'll last a long time.

Just show some respect for her long service no matter whether you despise royalty or not.

No need for posting shit about the Queen at this stage ffs

 

[Nellies left peg]

Doesn't sound great. As a public servant myself, I think she's the most outstanding example of public service we'll ever see.

And the last one with any integrity. Public interest in this disfunctional family will wane after her passing.

 

[Octavian]

Let’s hope Andrew follows in his footsteps although the whole family seem to be bumbling morons barring Anne who seems to be more down to earth and less self entitled

I regret engaging with you now.

I’ll bow out of this.

 

[Mr Kobayashi]

How has she been a big part of your life?

Her eyes follow them round the room?

Like COVID, ultimately it will be great news for The Tories. The grieving will get weaponised by the gammons and the Mail and Express will use it to stoke the culture war. Raynor will be photographed laughing and Corbyn dancing somewhere. I strongly suspect Megan will get the blame at some point.
