The Royal Family Discussion Thread

[despritdan]

I'm not a royalist but I've always had a sense of affection for her because her coronation was the same year I was born, so I feel as though I've grown up with her and she's always been a part of my life, albeit in the background so I'm a little sad that part of my life has ended. If we're going to have a monarch, we couldn't have had a better one as she was always dedicated and professional. However, the blanket coverage by the media has been over the top, presumably because they feel they have to do it or look disrespectful. They've been constantly telling us we're a nation in mourning but I think we're more a nation that's getting bored with hearing about it and angry about the prospect of the football being called off.

You really are the most immature, obnoxious individual imaginable. After your previous comments which were removed, I can't believe you have such a lack of self awareness as to think you can take the moral high ground. Do you think your simplistic virtue signalling and delusions of intellect make you morally superior to anybody?

And you have always been a little inconsequential being with a need to swear

The funniest bit of it is that Ecco is a staunch Tory. A party that impose their warped version of society on us using a captive 40% vote.

A bit off topic to reply to your bit that was also off topic....

 

Just to remind you that the conservatives under Johnson got a greater share of the vote (43.6%) than Labour ever did under Blair (40.7%)

Heartfelt condolences to you all, on the passing of your Queen.

 

Regardless of how anyone feels about monarchy, about inherited wealth and status, about the UK…

 

…no one should ever be able to deny or talk down the sheer dignity, the unequalled sense of duty, and the steadfast dedication to her people, with which Elizabeth carried her role, for so long.

 

Today is a sad, sad day.

 

 

What a lovely post.  Well said.
