I hope so, I'd have even less respect for him.

Fair enough. I'm sure parenting people who are "royalty" is quite difficult so hard to put much blame on her for that.
Always got the impression everything associated with that family was pretty rotten, but maybe a case of she was fine but the rest a disaster?
I would assume that they have been expecting this for some time. She was unwell.
Didn't live much longer than Philip. 96 is some age and remained active to recently. The Queen Mother lived to 101 if i recall right.
Outside of the UK, it'll be news for a day, max two.
She will be the last Queen of England we will remember alive
So sad, god rest her soul 
RIP
i’m only going to remember her as dead.
A minute’s silence at the start of the 2nd half in the FCZ Arsenal game.
I don’t think you realise what a big deal this is for the UK.
Whether it’ll continue or not is hard to know, but the country will be shook for a while.
RIP Queen Elizabeth ll
Does feel odd. Like end of an era.
Well she was head of state in 14 other nations so might be a bit of deal there. Granted not for everyone, but the death of the Queen is worldwide news. Will it affect everyone, of course not, but just because something doesn’t affect you doesn’t make it not newsworthy.
Not a chance. The royal weddings are main news items for weeks and weeks, let alone the dead of an icon of our time.
All our cash is now obsolete.
Rest in peace Queen
Yeah, not like there’s a largest war since ww2 on-going in Europe currently!
No but seriously, the death of her mother didn't register as a particularly big moment, or at least it doesn't today. The thing that will make her death memorable is that it is the same year Russia declared the stupidest war that Europe has seen in a long time.
Of course it's newsworthy, no doubt. Similar to the Pope dying for example. But it won't be anywhere close to the most significant moments this century for anyone outside of those 15 countries, and likely not even for those inside
got to feel for liverpool. now their implosion will be forgotten by everyone, just like their covid pl 
Huw Edwards has been fantastic to be fair, several hours of nothing until the announcement
I reckon you're the one going a bit overboard. Or you're joking.
Rest In Peace, Queen Elizabeth
I'm really worried for the UK now.
The Queen is the last pillar of strength and her presence has been felt through the ages
The UK has a weak PM and no queen !
fecking worrying

Where? Maybe on BBC news but otherwise no.
The monarchy will never be the same
You think so? I think the American press will beg to differ.
The position can feck off but RIP to Elizabeth
I reckon it was between then and 5pm.
Maybe to you.
She had a good run. She was a monumental global figure, like it or not.
From one Liz to another. It'll be alright (apart from the recession and blackouts).
Rip.
In France it will be France 2 and TF1, every documentary of the Queen ever produced will be broadcasted for weeks.
RIP. She had good innings and put in a sterling effort based on duty.
Why?
