She shook the hands of Martin McGuinness. The former chief of staff of the IRA, who murdered her cousin Lord Mountbatten, that Martin McGuinness.

If that was me i wouldn't be able to bring myself to do such a thing. Yet she did. That was an incredible thing to do really.

Mountbatten was a nonce. Let's not try and make him out to be some hard done to, decent human being.

It was McGuinness who showed class in that instance.

And she laid a wreath at the Garden of Remembrance in Dublin which commemorates those who fought the British for independence. She was big enough to rise to these occasions and she earned our respect and regard for doing so. I liked the Queen. It's the bizarre North Korean cult of personality that the establishment have weaved around her that I find hilarious.

Oh, please. I'm Irish and no decent Irish person would condone the blowing up of a human being on a boat. That was a barbaric act and it was particulary heinous in that it killed two teenage boys and an 83 year-old woman in the process. A disgusting act of barbarism. NOT IN MY NAME.

Well it's not in my name either.

But Mountbatten was a nonce. I'm not shedding any tears for him. Got what was coming to him, and frankly I couldn't care less how that made the Queen, or any other nonce apologist feel. Got what he deserved.

Peadophiles are barbaric.

And the two innocent boys on the boat? And the old woman? And all the seriously injured others?

Cop yourself on.

Incredible thing for Martin McGuinness to do as her troops who swore allegiance to her murdered 14 civilians in his own city.

That's a fair shout, forgiveness is once of the finest attributes we can show, especially under duress
 
One was a war hero from both WW1 and WW2, the other was a terrorist, she should have smacked him…..

One was a peadophile. I presume that's the one you are trying to call a "hero" Pete.

I am going to politely disagree, and suggest peadophiles are not heroes, even if they do some other noteworthy things (normally milked to help them get away with it).

Nice to see the Pro British position on this is an explicitly pro peadophile position though. Its not my view.
 
If you condone bombing a boat with lots of innocent people on it, yeah, there are plenty of better people than you.

I dont condone that.

I have stated a peadophile got what was coming to him. That's it. The original post referenced Mountbatten. Nobody should feel ashamed for doing harm to him.

If somebody would have stopped Saville, or whoever topped Epstein, they would also have no need to feel shame. They did a good thing.
