How would things have been worse? Genuine question.
I don't know whether you've noticed but the country is on its arse. We're facing an economic blackhole, millions of hard-working (I mean actual hard work, not being chauffered around the country to wave at people) families are facing fuel poverty. The cost of essentials like food are sky-rocketing. We have a political class that treat us with unadulterated disdain.
But it's grand, because we're about to funnel tens more millions into a state funeral for someone that lived a life most could only dream of and be told for the next year that we should be thankful for such excess, because, you know, she's a stabilising figure. Or some other such bullshit.
