Oz and South Africa too. Australia is teetering toward a republic with the respect for HMTQ keeping it hanging on by a slender thread, but when she goes all bets are off. The Harkles have royally (pun intended) pissed off them and SA, and with Irish unification plus Scottish Independence, William may only reign over England and Wales. No more United Kingdom, though I have learned over the years not to count the Brits, particularly the RF, out.

True, but to avoid confusion she was Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, not Queen Elizabeth.

She was self-titled Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother when QEII took the throne.

They were both Her Majesties also. TQM was her husband’s Queen Consort FYI, not the Sovereign.

I saw on fox news that Meghan did not go with Harry to see the Queen. What a bitch.

Yeah I’m about to binge watch yet again and check the news every so often. The Crown certainly isn’t 100% historically accurate but it’s a very well done show.

She’s definitely a grade A bitch but I’m not sure she was …. welcome. There’s no love lost between the Cambridges and her, and William carries a lot of weight right now, rightly so.

Probably the best thing Meghan has ever done for her husband and his family. What you’re not getting is she’s (rightly) not invited.

Royal fanfare aside, its the head of state of our closest ally, and QE has been a major figure in the West for a long time.

Were you anticipating it not getting any coverage when she passed? There isn't a nation on earth where this won't be page 1 news.

It’s an Anglo-Saxon/Norman thing.

Perhaps it’s all a ruse and the queens body double is at Balmoral. Mehghan is alone in London,
In a room like this



She walks across the cold marble and swears she hears someone softly humming “God Save the Queen.”

Suddenly the sound of padded footfalls across the stone.

She feels an icy sting as a cold dagger slips into her back and through her ribs. The knife twists cruelly. She gasps, frothy blood pouring from her lips as a wrinkled old hand clasps over her mouth to stop her screaming.

A hoarse whisper in her ear.


“Queen takes bitch up.”

She greeted the new prime minister yesterday... Curious how she went down so quickly.

My sauce connected to the BBC said she passed at 2:30 GMT today but that they haven’t been released to report it.

Pretty sure this rumor has happened like 10 times over the past couple of years though

We will know for sure in about 40 minutes. It is going to be very odd considering she has been the monarch for the entirety of the majority of people's lives.

Seeing Charles on the money will be weird.
