It is basic human decency to celebrate the life of the dead, especially of someone like Queen Elizabeth... Fairy tales is not even part of it... How miserable of me not to be fawning over a 96yr old billionaire who I've never met popping her clogs. Have I not given enough reasons in this thread why i DON'T feel she should be universally celebrated or that a country experiencing an economic crisis should not come to a standstill for two weeks and have every dissenting opinion crushed by a compliant media? It has nothing to do with human decency and everyhting to do with not forcing performative mourning on people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always chuckle when I read it hahahaha. Anyway, I find indecency in gushing for hours over a funeral. Like a medieval old woman going to the hanging. Bread and circus.

Toni Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 In an independent Scotland what happens with the Royals and all their properties and lands? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current independence movement seeks to dissolve the political union, not the monarchical one, but I suspect there would be a vote on that later down the line. Balmoral is a private residence and belongs to the royals, Palace of Hollyrood would transfer to full public ownership I imagine as has happened with previous royal residences like Linlithgow Palace, Stirling Castle, Edinburgh Castle etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William is now the heir to the throne when Charles dies he becomes King. If William abdicates it passes to George his son as he is next in line to the throne. Nickelodeon isn’t included as part of the British realm the monarch becomes Head of State for, but that could change, unlikely though. Brainwashed as in like the monarch or happy to have a monarch? Hard to give an exact figure but 2 million passes the Queens coffin so that’s a couple of million out the population but there’s over 40 million adults in the country so who knows?

karbatal Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 I would love that something happens and Meghan is Queen.

Either a massive racist or a walking PR disaster, but the monarchy's main supporters are mostly racists anyway (on social media at least) so no one cares.

Huge flop ! In reality Diana was mourned the world over killed in a tragic accident at 36 with 2 young sons. The Queen reached 96 with grown up children. There was no streaming in 1997 so the only place to see any of it was on a TV where viewing figures are recorded. Streaming isn’t included in the figures for last weeks funeral.

I don’t think Diana defines her whole history. She’s certainly a part of it though but I think her reign was far too long and had too much going on within it just be remembered for one event.
