I may not be a royalist but have huge respect for what the Queen has done over many years and do feel very sad on her passing. RIP😥

I must say I feel shocked. I mean I knew it was coming but she’s been there my whole life and I am not exactly young anymore. A totally 100% class act who will long remain an inspiration for anyone wanting to be a decent human being. And this is coming from a Republican not a Monarchist. Full respect to all who admired and loved her and my condolences.

I’m not a royalist either but you have to respect her life and dedication.

    Yep. Not sure Charles will follow her lead and stay out of politics as she did wisley.

      The queen IMO knew her limitations and stayed the right side of them. Sadly, don’t think this will be the case with Charles.

      I think King Williams may perhaps strike a balance like the HM Queen. There will never be anyone like her.

      i dont think many will like Charles, bit like moyes taking over after fergie haha

      jokes aside i think William would make a good king, but its not an easy job and to do what the queen did so well was a unique skill and a credit to a life serving her country

      Having watched the state funeral procession with all its pomp, ceremony, plumed helmets and regalia, you can only but admire it all, especially considering the huge logistical exercise that encompassed it all.

      For me personally one line from the poem of Simon Armitage says it all:

      “A promise made and kept for life - that was your gift -”
