The Queen.

Bitta perspective here please. Yes itll be sad ( kind of) but wer talking bout a woman who's never cooked a meal in her life/wiped her own arse and had medical treatments that our loved ones who've passed on could have only dreamt of. A life of incredible privilege where literally no one would disagree with.
Incoming..?..no problem.

I don’t think anyone’s gone over the top but she was a decent servant, all things considered.

Long live the king and all that.

Not everyone is a royalist.

I’m not, but it’s news, duck out if you’re not interested.

Isn’t it enough for now to express sympathy at the death of an old woman?

Nor is everyone a decent human being , evidently.

She served with dignity. Nothing wrong with a bit of respect.

You need to think this through fella. She was born into it and from the day she became queen her life was not her own. Would you have liked to live your life that way?

Indeed. I have no strong feelings about the monarchy and I’m certainly no republican but I don’t understand why people’s first instinct these days is to just be plain nasty. Modern Britain I suppose.

Wasn't even born into it persay, her father only took over because his brother chucked it in

Beautifully put.

Very well put.

 

[Pegojack]

I'm certainly no royalist, but (a) she has been there my whole life and (b) she always conducted her duties with great dignity, unlike many of her family. She will be missed.

RIP ma’am.

And if nothing else at the very least we’re watching history unfold before our eyes. Britain will change in many ways, most of them small and subtle enough that most won’t notice. But change it will.

Carrying a picture of Charles in my wallet is going to be something.

You don't have to be a Royalist, to feel sympathy for her family
