Queen Elizabeth II | 1926-2022 | Rest in Peace

She had a great life and reign, was 96. What an innings. I don't feel like it's particularly sad, personally.
 
Currently in Westminster, the WhatsApp groups of SPADS, Spin Doctors and Party Ghouls, are alight with schemes, working out what they can propose, pass and justify in the next few weeks as the country turns patriotic and mourns the death of the Queen. Beware!
 
Huge moment for the nation. The world really. I know we all joke but this will be remembered as one of the most important moments in the 21st Century
I don't think she'll even surpass Princess Diana in public interest.
 
I blame lizzy truss, during her meeting with the Queen yesterday she obviously must of bored the Queen to death
 
I always knew this place was quite strongly left leaning, but I didnt realise just how radical a lot these folk truly are. Makes me question some of the other views etc I have seen on here over the years.

Cant say I am particularly pro or anti the monarchy, but the Queen was an institution on a global level, and a constant in the lives of virtually everyone in the country. RIP.

Always sad finding out about out about you are aware of dying, but no more than any other.

WTF?! Any examples of this radicalism?
 
RIP

The epitomy of what a monarch should be. Puts the rest to shame. There will never be another like her.

I wonder if they will cancel the weekend matches out of respect.

Salt and pepper have been a constant in the lives of everyone in the country. There's nothing really special about something being a constant. That seems like a very weird thing to elevate and give status to.

Yeah I agree. It’s a bit weird imo.

This place is just out of reality. Got people who were arguing with me when i posted this is a momentous moment in our lifetimes.
 
I more mean on a political level. She doesn’t do anything regarding the running of the country in any real sense. She’s a ceremonial figurehead who will be replaced in a few days.

It's one of those "she's always been there" for many many people of all generations. King Charles doing the xmas day speech going to be very strange watch.

Guess it's a little different given he's brought you guys so much joy but similar whenever SAF passes given he's been there for generations of your fanbase. And a ceremonial figurehead.

King Charles and PM Truss though. Winter certainly going to be fun under nine duvets.
 
Hopefully this will bring about a change in the Monarchy, all the pomp and ceremony.

So because people on here don't share your middle-of-the-road views on one single issue, they're radicals.

Talk about irony.

Have a search for 'Queen''s Consent'. She (and the new King) vetoed dozens of legislative ideas from the Scottish and Westminster Parliaments.
