This has got to be in the lead so far
Didn't half get to see some cup finals though.She wasn't a fuckin football manager!
To be fair he probably thought she was stillI see that and raise you
We won't.if they close the pubs, we riot....
I think for me too since moving away from the UK I obviously get very nostalgic about home at times and in a funny way feel prouder and prouder of being British.Don’t agree with royalty at all, but if you’re going to have one you couldn’t ask for much better. Been a continuity and worldwide symbol of Britain all through the modern age pretty much from war time to the Information Age. The country will be a lot poorer without her.
Cant believe Liz Truss killed her to be honest.

The institution itself is archaic and antiquated but it’s a diplomatic position and has been for decades. Throughout the rollercoaster of events over the last 70 years and throughout my whole life she’s been a figure of stability and leadership, a “constant”.
The world is worse off without her.
There’s also something I can’t quite place to do with our current standing in the world versus where we used to be, and the monarchy was at least a nod to that and I think this is probably the beginning of the end of it
What do you think we “should” be?We need to figure out what we are because if it isn’t an imperial power and it isn’t the bridge between US and EU I’m not sure what it is.

I can see vacancies arising amongst the opposition benches next week when some Twitter account content is exposed.Don't give a hoot about the royals one way or the other, but some people are so filled with hate it's staggering really.

This country is about to go absolutely insane
Put Sky Sports News on last night to escape it and it was on there as well!The BBC radio bods have gone right over the top.
Literally EVERY station playing the same tribute.
I doubt it - the current PM has previously called for an end to the monarchy.I can see vacancies arising amongst the opposition benches next week when some Twitter account content is exposed.
I was supposed to have an online meeting with a client from the UK today and they’re closed for ‘well-being’ - wtf.Just arrived at work and the CEO has sent out a tribute email and at the bottom there's a number to ring in case anyone needs counselling.
Sounds like a good opportunity for a day off.I was supposed to have an online meeting with a client from the UK today and they’re closed for ‘well-being’ - wtf.

We’ve not been an imperial power for a long, long time though and whilst I agree that the world might miss us being that bridge, although let’s be honest the yanks will do what they want to do regardless. If we can sort our shit out why can’t we just be a decent country that people like and respect and still listen to on the world stage. The Ukraine situation suggests that’s possible with the right leadership on certain issues
Im not sure Truss is going to deliver that but Charles can help, especially as he’s likely to have stuff to say on sustainability/environment (although hope he keeps it just to that/not overstep). ultimately it’s for us a country to try to be that anyway
You left the number off the post.Just arrived at work and the CEO has sent out a tribute email and at the bottom there's a number to ring in case anyone needs counselling.
They're at end stage looting now.We're a cash cow for rampant neo liberal opportunists.
We had similar, the MD sent an email as if everybody was somehow ignorant of the news.Just arrived at work and the CEO has sent out a tribute email and at the bottom there's a number to ring in case anyone needs counselling.
She loved a mixed kebab, hot sauce and no onions
They've cancelled our two monthly update out of respect...We had similar, the MD sent an email as if everybody was somehow ignorant of the news.

Wish I had a day off
