Queen Elizabeth II

[tolmie's hairdoo]

To turn up and meet Liz Truss and Boris Johnson must be an ordeal for anyone, to do it almost as you take your last breath is a quite incredible testament to the service to her country,

Imagine a bookend which starts with Churchill but finishes with Truss?

I'd probably have asked what I did to deserve that?

I reckon she hung around long enough to not have Johnson front and centre at her funeral.

I reckon she hung around long enough to not have Johnson front and centre at her funeral.

I actually do think she eventually decided to call it quits and went 'home' to Balmoral to die.

She was apparently still mentally sharp when she met Boris and Truss?

I'm sure she was left wondering how she had gone from fireside chats with the likes of Churchill, Eisenhower and Mandela, to that?

Pretty much a metaphor for how bad things are in this country and the wider world!

Either that or our Empirical leader has started a company called Royal Tea-towels plc and has bought sponsorship on his channel.

Her death marks the end of an incredible generation, same generation as my Mum and Dad and all of those involved in the wars, they were unique, incredible people and the subsequent generation including my own are a pale imitation.

Was thinking the same yesterday. Also shows how we have declined as a nation in recent years. Even Eden was a very well-regarded man with an impressive CV before the debacle of Suez.


Politics aside, that such an unimpressive person is our PM is not a good look.

Was more rothschild antisemitic angle I believe.

To be fair, I was coming from the all-bankers-are-wankers angle...

Most probably, the greatest generation.
