Nah. the queen is mystifyingly popular. I don't understand it but there it is, she is. Give us another one and we'll see how that goes.
Has the Queen died?

We don't want another one. We don't want a monarchy.
Monarchists are hard to fathom. WTF are they thinking?

Monarchists are hard to fathom, yes, but history tells us that unpopular monarchs make monarchy very unpopular, and that this can happen very quickly. this queen is popular. bring on another, just to see as much as anything else. Their popularity is not guaranteed.

We don't want another. Why call for another one, unless you're a monarchist?

Oh, I'm just cheering on the death of this one. The idea that changing the monarch isn't a big thing is wrong, imo. It's something none of us (bar perhaps sas) has experienced, but it's a change that can produce demands for change. Better than her not dying. Get gone, I say. Get gone asap.

Quite a lot of us have experienced it! Many of our parents and grandparents have.

No we haven't. This one came to the throne in the early 50s. The vast majority of us have not experienced it. There were fears for the monarchy in the 30s. There are fears for it at various periods. Bring on another period of fear.

There are some massive fibbers out there who like it to be known they have special knowledge that the rest of us don't have. They tend to be the kind of person who says they knew there was something fishy about someone, but only after learning of their disgrace.

Loads of people are in their 70s and 80s - a couple of million at least in the UK.

Why are so many on here so U75-centric?Not on here.

Don't be silly. I was talking about 'us', hence the reference to the old, royalist poster.

Exactly, being U75centric.

Yep, speaking to Urban on Urban.
My mum would not approve. She wouldn't approve of probably about 90 per cent of what I post on here. She's 84, btw. She would remember.

partner had hysterics when I told him the Theresa May thing (mirth, not grief, I hasten to add). Likened it to Paul McCartney and the cover of Sgt Pepper.

Indeed, that's why it's a bit daft to think our views are representative. The monarchy SHOULD end, but there are loads out there who remain deferent. Maybe cos some of them saw the Coronation in colour for the first time on a neighbour's telly and were blown away by it instead of disgusted by it.

You suggesting a poll?
Content of post 444, page 15 on this thread : why I refuse ON PRINCIPLE to accept that the Queen is dead .... even if she is.
Taking the conspirapiss just encourages actual conspiraloons. Whose growing success in this thread as sleepers (using the general pisstaking as 'deep cover') just undermines us finding out the REAL TRUTH

Forgive me, I'd got my wires crossed. That was Wimbledon in the 60s.
It was a huge live broadcast seen by millions though.

Sneaky.
Every single conspiracy theory in the world ever has just been a CIA/MI5 (etc) conspiracy.
Don't give in to them, Pisstakers.
There's in any case no hope for you (actual) Loons on this thread who've been giving in to 'them', that is the real 'them', for years.
(Not there's any more than zero essential difference between conspirapisstakers* and actual conspiraloons* anyways).
**SPOT THE DIFFERENCE!!!!!?????

Yeah, and everyone celebrated. As everyone did in 1981. as everyone was sad when Diana died...
