[OBIT] Queen Elizabeth, dead at 96

A lifelong devotion to duty coupled with an ability to conceal her political and worldly views are but two characteristics that made her a much loved public figure.

It’s sad, the world has lost a strong, remarkable woman.

Current pretenders would do well to follow her example.

RIP.

This would’ve been a good place to end the monarchy as it is just a relic of the past with an insane amount of blood on its hands from the colonies, and Elizabeth resisted decolonization at the time. Just the funerals are predicted to cost around a billion pounds and the thought to have a royal family to just live in luxury is a remnant from the past.

@DragonLady not a fan of “King Charles III” either.  His personal relationships have threatened to bring down the Monarchy more than once. Also, he’s more outspoken than his mother (e.g. with his pro “Green” stance”). He’s bound to ruffle some feathers with his style of leadership.

I think most royalists are willing to give him a chance though. And yes, keep the Sussexes far away from the funeral.

As a matter of fact, among his first duties the King should strip spoiled crybaby Harry and his obnoxious wife of  their titles. That would probably raise his standing in a lot of people’s eyes.

@Maverick

I’m sure I can remember reading somewhere that that’s what King Charles is considering doing with Harry and Megan when he gets the throne. Mostly for the sake of Harry and Megan’s kids because knowing Megan she’ll use them for her own gain. In fact, most of us want Charles to do that.

The Line of succession is clear.

Charles ( Now King )
William (Next King ) and the sooner the better
George (Long after most of us are gone) Just hope he is more like his Parents and Grandmother.

Really they need to remove Harry and Digger from all Royal titles and inheritance and any funds from the Royal family or Britain. They made that bed, they can lay with the flees.

When I saw that photo of  the Queen greeting Liz Truss she looked so frail.

If you look at pictures taken of her within the last 24 months you’ll notice that she deteriorated quickly after Prince Phillip’s death. He was her partner and counsel and she lost that pillar of support when he died.

To those politicians that were partying during the Pandemic (while Her Majesty sat alone at her husband’s funeral),  “forgetful” Prince Andrew and those perpetual privileged victims Harry and Meghan – there’s a special place in hell reserved for all of you.
