Topic: The Monarchy*

[Dr. Beaker]

She can't die can she? I thought she was related to God or something. A winged chariot winged chariot will descend and carry her away. Johnson is going to be so jealous of Truss.

[Jwils21]

Yeah there’s no way they’d interrupt Bargain Hunt for this long if it wasn’t serious

Although there's that video of Truss calling for the Monarchy to be abolished, can't see that going down well.

Flying from London to Florida next week, any ideas whether flights are likely to be affected if she does pass away?

Maybe on the day of her funeral, can't see flights being affected at any other time.

[ABZ Rover]

I have visions of dark,Mordor like clouds covering all off Aberdeenshire!

That’s fukin normal mate.

Most flights will be ok, but not ones to Florida, due to its Disney connection.

Announced the day after she met the first PM ever who has made a public plea for the end of the monarchy (albeit in her more truthful younger days)

[LovelyCushionedHeader]

already is

I think its stupid dragging  that up anyway

I'm sure everyone thought or said stuff when younger than was stupid

Ironically, it's probably one of the few things Truss has said that isn't stupid.

[Black Bull Nova]

King Charles III


For god's sake, with Truss as PM,

Could be a terrible, terrible week for Rangers this

[lfcred1976]

I came to the UK 13 years ago so I'm not a native born Brit and I can't help up but to feel sad if the Queen passes away. Regardless of the history of the monarchy she's was the glue that kept the United Kingdom together.

Care to explain why you think she was the glue that kept the kingdom together?  Never understood this narrative that gets pushed out about her.

[Ray K]

What would happen if she died during the world cup, would the England team not compete or what.

I think they'd be allowed to name a replacement player, but surely not even Gareth Southgate is so loyal as to name her in the squaft

"...named in the squaft," this one of the plenitude of u.k. weather phenomena?

[Hazell]

That's the weekend games cancelled then.

Bit more time on the training ground to iron out our curremt issues.

In what sense?

People say things like this, but I have no real idea of what they mean.

Doubt it, unless they’re going with a cremation on a scale on par with an Icelandic volcano. Though you never know I guess.

[Millie]

No games will be cancelled

Surely they will - given they were when Diana died.

[scouseman]

Nicholas Witchell is now on the beeb

[Believe]

I'm of the opinion the monarchy should be abolished, or at least dramatically downsized.

That having been said, the end of Queen Elizabeth II is the end of an era - she's been a constant presence throughout pretty much everyone's life in this country and she represents a spirit of England that for better or worse has been in sharp decline over the last twenty years.

She didn't ask for her position and has dutifully represented the crown during her reign.

[Qston]

Well Andrew is now on his way there. Don`t kick her while she's down for gods sake

[Hedley Lamarr]

No games will be cancelled

Is she passes away before the weekend they will be.

[gerrardisgod]

Nicholas Witchell is now on the beeb

Now it’s serious.

[disgraced cake]

Paul Gascoigne has arrived at Balmoral saying he is a friend of Queen Elizabeth II

[Cruiser]

Is she passes away before the weekend they will be.

More importantly do we get a few days off work?

[Sharado]

No games will be cancelled

They absolutely will be, without question.

[TheShanklyGates]

Family on their way, BBC programming interrupted… it’s not far off. When the news readers start wearing black, you know it’s happened

Huw Edwards has just arrived wearing a black tie...

[Crosby Nick]

Flying from London to Florida next week, any ideas whether flights are likely to be affected if she does pass away?

I believe she wasn’t on the pilot’s rota for next week so you should be ok.

[Mister Flip Flop]

Going to massive celebrations up on the Falls Road if this happens. Belfast will be a tinderbox.

[scouseman]

Hope the queen makes a full recovery must not have been easy for her to deal with all these royal scandals and the loss of her husband. She has been a constant in all our lives and it will been so strange for her not to be around.

[Mister Flip Flop]

Paul Gascoigne has arrived at Balmoral saying he is a friend of Queen Elizabeth II

With his fishing rod

When Jim White appears in his yellow one you’ll know they’ll have named her successor.

See its absolute bollocks like this that I take umbrage with.
The glue that kept Britain together isn't some woman sat on a throne put there by accident of birth.
Its the millions of ordinary people she and family have enjoyed their parasitic lifestyle off for hundreds of years.

Their reporter is outside Balmoral now, desperately trying to avoid being assaulted by sex toys. You know what those Aberdeen fans are like.

[Red Beret]

Except Truss still is that stupid.

[Cruiser]

Really hope nothing happens before the weekend, we really that Wolves game right now.
