Had a bit of a mixed reception in the capital.

There are some very angry folk about.

..and some very touchy forlock tuggers
If you are referring to me, I couldn't give a flying f***, if there is a Monarchy or not, if there is there is and Visa versa, just get on with my own business. I've been in work all day, earning a crust for me and mine.👍
 
It’s not surprising. The independence movement in Wales is probably stronger than its ever been despite the increasingly implausible denials of Brit nats everywhere. At the moment it’s a very noisy minority but it’ll grow as the older generation,which has more traditional ties to “Britishness”, disappears and the more radical youngsters became engaged and get the vote. They are the future. Scotland will go first, probably within the next decade or so. Wales and Northern Ireland will follow. The last two won’t happen in my lifetime but it will happen. The U.K. in its current form is doomed and has been for decades. It’s only a matter of time.

Careful, you'll have lots of replies from posters that don't care :lol:

I read someone elsewhere objecting to the King speaking speak Welsh while he was in Wales today. That’s the attitude I don’t understand and it’s that generation (the same generation as me I’d imagine) when it disappears that will lead to the inevitable break up. Imagine someone making the effort to speak the language of a country while in that country. Outrageous.

Of course they do, she was Queen for 70 years and massively loved and respected. Quite right too. But it’s transient. No one who didn’t know her personally will still be grieving or missing the Queen in a few weeks. They’ll be too busy worrying about whether to put the heating on or buy food.

Fair point.

Her Maj passed a log? Treason. Hang him.

I know, get in the queue.

There are a lot of people about these that have painted themselves so tightly into corners, that they try waaaaay too hard. As you've said elsewhere, the break up of the union will come, it's already cracked beyond repair.
