Queen Elizabeth has passed away.

[Dovetail]

I watch the Royals as I like them. I just have seen that the Queen has passed away.

I wish all her family and the nation much sympathy and may the change over be smooth.

After 70 years of service to the country may she now rest in eternal peace .

 

[Garno]

Very sad day for the nation

A rock solid woman who was class, patience, and subtle warm charm. Rest in Peace, QEII.

 

[Sandyn]

Very sad to hear. I had a lot of respect for her.

 

[Ozi]

I have always had a great deal of respect for her, never more than at Prince Philips funeral where she sat alone showing dignity and respect for all the ordinary people who had to miss the funerals of their loved ones through the pandemic.

RIP your majesty

You'll need to shift this to controversial topics before I give my opinion on the monarchy. Sorry.

There's a time and a place. There's the concept of humanity and decency. Of compassion. You clearly have zero understanding of any of those.

In the words of Edmund Blackadder, make a sentence out of the words ‘off’ and ‘sod’, then.

RIP Elizabeth II.

Please accept my sincere condolences. It would be tough to get used to the king, as I always connect UK with the queen.

I am not a fan of the royals but still think it's sad, my mum is in her 70s and remembers the coronation

I didn't mention anything insulting, but thanks for the inane reply.

I am entitled to an opinion, sorry if you don't like it. Or rather I'm not. Besides which I didn't even give it, you thought it.

You are indeed. Probably not the place to voice (imply) it, though.

Like shouting from the sidelines at someone’s funeral, ‘I’d tell you what I thought of that man, but you’d probably not like it!’

 

[Droogs]

gutted, I hope the All father gives her smooth sailings to the afterlife.

 

[AJB Temple]

There are quite a few people in the UK who are not royalists. We will now have 12 days of the BBC going overboard for a woman who reached a good age in a pampered life. They've already got BBC1 and 2 devoted to it as well as Radio 4 and other channels with endless repetition. I expect I know where Phil is coming from. This is a wood forum.

Ah.... I understand. You can say what you like but I can't. OK.

I doubt he's going to change his mind, not everyone likes the royal family you just have to accept that, it's a fair point to make and he's not harming anyone, it's not fair to bring a personal tragedy of his into this either.

I agree, totally unfair and wrong.
