Current Affairs Her majesty the Queen

[Frenk]

Wow!! Surely against forum rules? ?

What the hell?

King Charles III

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

The monarchy's an historical artifact.

Henry v11? The king that introduced income tax that clobbered Jane Bloggs.

 

[PITA]

Alright I've received news from a trusted source of mine, who has close links to the royal family and BBC, and I got told she has passed away.

Was driving home from work when radio cut away mid song. Not afraid to admit I felt really quite sad when i heard it announced.

have another less hilarious try...

Wasn’t an attempt at been hilarious. Was a autocorrect typo.

Apparently Stormont has a ceremonial role in the succession process. Watch the DUP get its arse back into power sharing pronto.

I thought the opposite meself. But might not be the right thread for me to elaborate

RMT have suspended the rail strikes next week.

Of course they have. Good subjects.

Ahh shame mate, sorry to hear that.
Was it Bohemian Rhapsody or some other banging riff that got cut off?

Anyone blamed Meghan yet?

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


Saturday funeral? No day off work as expected?

That's cool I need the hours at work.

 

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

On a human level I feel for her family.

More broadly, I wish they'd just deal with the death in a low key dignified manner. Be arsed with all this hubris and cap doffing being rammed down our throats on every outlet.

I was half listening to someone on Irish radio talking about it but thought he said they had some meaningless ceremonial role.
