Current Affairs Her majesty the Queen

[Wat Tyler]

Elizabeth will lie in state for four days, then be buried nine days after she passes.


Saturday funeral? No day off work as expected?

 

[Devanski]

Just occurred to me that she was the last constant through my entire life.

Grandparents gone, parents gone, some family and friends taken far too soon.

My feelings: Let her be the last of this outdated privileged anachronism.

 

[Davidoff]

Seemed a nice lady RIP

Think the following generations will struggle to hold the monarchy together

 

[brieverton]

It's striking also how many older people decline quite rapidly following the death of their spouse / life partner. But I'd also spare more than a thought for the elderly in the community that die alone and in impoverished circumstances.

 

[everton fan number one]

I wonder how many other OAP's are going to die this winter ; two weeks of maudlin nonsense whilst the country teeters on a precipice.

Why isn't Jane Bloggs of the Tudor peasantry remembered in textbooks whilst Henry VII the tyrant is?

The monarchy's an historical artifact.

 

[Groucho]

Yeah, but I’m not a royal. Are you? Did you check your bloodline?

No I’m not a royal.

You say yes that you were a Thatcher fan? That’s a brave statement on an Everton website.

 

[Haydn]

Sir Boris Jonnson will probably claim she knighted him the other day.

 

[emir]

To give the Queen the ultimate tribute, it's probably best to end the monarchy and ensure she is the final monarch.

 

[Milkman]

RMT have suspended the rail strikes next week.

Hopefully picketing Buckingham Palace instead.

 

[Tramps_mate]

No!!

 

[Mutzo Nutzo]

At least we should get a new national anthem and drop that dirge off a tune

 

[Rita_Poon]

here comes the trussel dust...

There will be a bank holiday aswell though

Wont there?

For the love of God please tell me we get 9 hours to reflect on her life in the pub , not in work!!

 

[Amw79]

Johnson will be gutted he wasn’t there to make this speech outside #10

 

[toffee82]

Liz Truss official statement.

"It wasn't me"
