Confused Clarity

They should have made Biden get on the buses like everybody else.

Video evidence

That guest wishing Sophie Raworth good luck with the Marathon. She didn't know what to say. 🤣

Am I really having to be the one who honours the end of her reign with the last word on this thread? Surely @SouthCoastRed would be a better person, considering he was there for the entire duration?

Bonkers country.

Same here. I did learn something from Huw though. That being drawn on a gun carriage only dares back to Queen Victoria on 1901 and only because the horses misbehaved that day. They thoughtnug looked so good they kept it. We're such a bonkers country.

Oh. Thats today? That's getting played.

You can be OTFs live reporter on the ground.

They've brought Huw off the bench now. All is right.

How are we a real country?

The sense of entitlement from that one woman immediately after being aware she wasn't going to make it. What do they bloody expect when the funeral is tomorrow?

Briefly checking twitter, it doesn't seem like he has actually done anything illegal at all at this moment in time. So it's probably wise to avoid spreading rumours that have a clear homophobic agenda.

It's what she would have wanted.

Well that's bloody daft too.

You know he didn't have to wear the suit at all. Right?

How do you know this?

Because he was the Prince of Wales and things like that should absolutely be in their calendar and on their radar.

Charles? No, very much doubt it. But it should have been known by his aides.

It was indeed. And yes, I think it was likely a coincidence and they should probably have shifted things around in the schedule. But I can see why people are upset.

It was Yesterday, But yes. It was almost certainly coincidence, but can understand why some were absolutely outraged and felt it was done as a deliberate sense of antagonism.

Susanna Reid also queued up with her mum. That one is even more interesting considering that she works for ITV in a role where she could be considered a journalist as well as a presenter. While Holly & Phil are just light entertainment presenters who got given press passes so they could skip the queue.

While I wouldn't do it personally, I can understand people's frustration and anger. Where else are they going to direct it? This is a time when it'll get national attention. People are starving right now. People can't afford to heat their homes right now. People are staring at the possibility of redundancy because their employer can't afford to keep them on/the business open right now. This is all happening right now. For people who are suffering right now, there is no other time or place than right now. While you nor I would act in this manner ourselves, please don't criticise those in society who feel they have no other option left to draw attention to their plight.

Going to do something I never do now OTF...... Take a seat please....... Fair play to David Beckham for queuing like everybody else.

Didn't see this before I posted, but yeah, my parents said it was certainly an experience.

My parents where in Thailand when Bhumibol Adulyadej / King Rama IX (don't know what's appropriate) passed away in 2016. For part of their holiday almost everything closed down completely. It's daft to think that we're the only ones who do things the way that is being done. Definitely a bit of British Exceptionalism or at least confirmation bias at play.
