The matches may have helped the healing process that some need." I got called the C word more times than any other occasion in my life. I don't really see anything wrong with what I wrote but, **** me, the hostility and threatening messages was way OTT. Hah, mentioned the same in a Wolves group and then mentioned that 1st October going to be a tough ask for people to respect any tribute myself included, got the 'well, try anything buddy next to us and see how it goes', amongst other things.

You wonder how much she found out about the Queens health at the visit? Announced the fracking soon after then the story was quickly buried under a big event, politicians that rise to become PM are the experts at spotting an opportunity.

Administrators Lucas Posted September 9, 2022 Administrators Share Posted September 9, 2022 I'm wondering though if the monarchy can honestly recover. I'm sure it will survive, but impossible shoes to fill and it's an institution not fit for today's world. I hope Charles III does continue to be outspoken as he is, on one hand I can't disagree with some things he says and on the other I'd really want us to form a republic.

I think he will be quite outspoken and controversial, but William seems much more likely to be submissive/quiet and seems to have been quite heavily groomed behind the scenes to be a modern version of the Queen for the next generation.

The best chance of that happening is for William to stand down and lose and his children's lineage, then it'll move to Harry and if he doesn't change his mind won't it then move over to Andrew?

I don't think I listened to a single speech from the Queen (in my memory anyway), and don't plan to listen to Charles any time soon. So I'm probably not best placed to judge what they say that leads to people embracing them. I've never understood it, even coming from a unionist/loyalist area of NI.

Was saying to my partner earlier given how much wealth/medical care he has for a 73 year old he looks so old. Looks more like 83, mental to look at him and think his mum was still alive days ago.

I wouldn't say I was pro them particularly but i'd much rather than have them than not. One of the reasons for that is that they're not aligned to a political party.
