Has the Queen died?

[Artaxerxes]

I hate to be the one to tell you, but there's a sillier example in waiting.

This one lauded as some sort of environmental champion which gets right on my tits.

 

[steveseagull]

i suspect this is going to be announced at 6pm. BBC gone full death mode.

 

[Flavour]

yeah it's on come on i expect newspaper websites to go FULL BLACK within 90 mins

Kinell, the memes

Coronation will take ages to organise. HM's wasn't till the following year.

 

[bimble]

ten days from D day to the funeral apparently

So Sunday? No day off?

 

[TopCat]

Can we run a book on when she will go?

1-2 4am tommorow
2-1 eight pm tonight
4-1 Already dead

 

[bimble]

i think that some of the grief will be real, you know, not for this person they've never met but for the loss of continuity, because she has been there all their lives whilst everything else has changed etc.

 

[Flavour]

i think we'll get the announcement later this evening and i think she is essentially in a coma and they are waiting for meghan to get there to switch the machines off cos then she can get blamed somehow

Seven members of Royal Household fly to Aberdeen​

A flight carrying seven members of the Royal Household is expected to land at Aberdeen Airport shortly, the BBC understands.


Could be that they're waiting on whoever the seven are to be there (sounds like a weird ritual). Then they'll make it public.

Secret Seven go to Balmoral

 

[Ax^]

hmm is she dead yet

 

[Pickman's model]

Monarchists are worse than idiots. |et this death mark the end of this shit. No more.

do you know, that's precisely what they said at the death of queen victoria. yet here we are 121 years later and still putting up with the same shit

 

[Pickman's model]

this could be a perfect storm if the weather improves for the rioting, with a ton of foreign leaders in london and scraps going off all over the place

 

[Crispy]

Probably this one



Northolt's just down the road from Windsor.

EDIT: Yep, this plane previously used for all sorts of royals

 

[Buddy Bradley]

Surprised that they allow that many of the royal family to all travel in the same vehicle.

 

[MickiQ]

Brenda has been on the throne longer than I have been alive but my only personal interaction with her is when she visited Crewe Works when I was about 9 and along with all the other kids I was marched from school to stand around and wave flags whilst she and Phil the Greek got out of the car and went into the offices and then we were all marched back again. Whilst she has been around all my life then so have the Pyramids or Blackpool Tower. The Queens actual impact on my life has been minimal, I'm not one of those wishing her death to be painful but the idea that I will grieve over a woman I have never met is nonsensical.

Secret Seven go to Balmoral

Whi are the seven?

 

[WhyLikeThis]

Fingers crossed the official time of death is past midnight so we get a bank holiday

 

[t0bytoo]

A mate tells me that they are getting on harnesses and ready to lower the flag at Bristol Temple Meads station...

 

[Pickman's model]

Whi are the seven?

the seven rings of power must be combined at the death of a monarch

 

[tim]

Monarchists are worse than idiots. |et this death mark the end of this shit. No more.

No more till the next one dies

They aren’t the important ones, just the spares.

I own more things with her picture on than anyone else's.
