Queen Elizabeth's Health
#1
The BBC in the UK has suspended its normal programming schedule to cover the latest developments in the deterioration of HM Queen Elizabeth II's health.

The Royal Family have been called to join her at her Balmoral Estate in Scotland.

All indications are that this is being taken very seriously by everyone concerned.

Many hundreds of people have gathered outside Buckingham Palace in London too.

She is 96 years old now.

Will Charles be up to it or will he do a 'Edward & Mrs Simpson'?!

"Doctors are concerned about her health".
That means it's pretty serious. This is exactly the kind of situation in which understatement will come into play.
The frankness of the doctors of Geroge V ("The king's life is drawing peacefully to its close") is a famous exception.

Quote:Queen Elizabeth II has died, Buckingham Palace announces

[Image: attachment.php?aid=11842]


'Queen Elizabeth II, the UK's longest-serving monarch, has died at Balmoral aged 96, after reigning for 70 years.
Her family gathered at her Scottish estate after concerns grew about her health earlier on Thursday.
The Queen came to the throne in 1952 and witnessed enormous social change.

Her eldest son, Charles, becomes King Charles III, and the head of state for 14 Commonwealth realms. He said the
death of his beloved mother was "a moment of great sadness".

In a statement, His Majesty the King said: "We mourn profoundly the passing of a cherished Sovereign and a much-loved 
Mother. I know her loss will be deeply felt throughout the country, the Realms and the Commonwealth, and by countless
people around the world." He said during the period of mourning and change he and his family would be "comforted and
sustained by our knowledge of the respect and deep affection in which The Queen was so widely held".

In a statement, Buckingham Palace said: "The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon.
"The King and the Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow."...'

My condolences.

I know she was much loved and seemed to be a genuinely good person.

Rest In Peace

She was one of a kind, I’ll give her that! Pros and cons. Personally, I liked her. Canadians are no longer big fans of the monarchy though. May she Rest In Peace.

Now to King Chuck and then King Bill….

The Queen has lived a long life, ruling 70 of those years -- now it is time for Charles to step up and take over

Thoughts and prayers to her family and to the people

One wonders how the next pound sterling will look for many countries around the world that sport the late-Queen's image
and of any impact (like the sudden fall of the pound in markets recently) will derive from her death.
Also, the lyrics of Great Britain and its Commonwealth anthem will alter too, along with numerous items like passports.

Quote:Huw Edwards 'practised announcing the death of the Queen in the bathroom mirror'

* News' Edwards was watched by 9.83million people at 6.30pm on Thursday
*He anchored most of the coverage when concern was raised over Queen's health
*61-year-old announced the news solemnly and repeated death statement twice

'BBC News broadcaster Huw Edwards is said to have been practicing the announcement of the death of the Queen
in the bathroom mirror' for 'some time'. The public service broadcaster had a total of 9.83million people tuned into
BBC One at 6.30pm when the death of Queen Elizabeth II was officially announced.

Huw Edwards had anchored most of the day's coverage on Thursday after Buckingham Palace released a statement
to say doctors were 'concerned' for Her Majesty's health, with senior royals seen rushing to Balmoral to be at her bedside.
Now it has been revealed that Huw Edwards had been reportedly preparing for this moment by 'rehearsing in front of his
bathroom mirror for some time'. The 61-year-old news presenter announced the news solemnly, looking into the camera
to repeat Buckingham Palace's statement twice...'
Archived Daily Mail Article:


If the report of the Queen's death was fairly sudden -regardless of the BBC's concerns of her ill-health, where did Huw
Edwards get the black suit, white shirt and black tie from? Do news-outlets have the appropriate clothing for 'celebrity'
deaths that fit any sized news Presenter reporting on that particular day?

By the way, all news readers on all the UK channels wore the same style of attire. How did such a coincidence occur...?
Unless certain parties within the established media agreed to do so.

I liked the Queen, although she was not MY monarch. She had a sober head set squarely on her shoulders. I have no faith at all, exactly zero, in king Chucky III to rule wisely, but again, not MY monarch, so I really have no dog in that fight.

He seems to have got his start in the vein of Henry VIII, killing off one wife so he could take another, and then he went downhill from there, getting all varieties of "woke", which no good sovereign can afford to do. You cannot take off on flights of fancy that will hurt the subjects and at the same time, be considered a good king.

So now, he and his "queen consort", which I consider to be more of a concubine than anything, a gold-digger trading ass for cash and power, will sit on the throne.

Let the good times roll.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.

Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’

I worry about poor Prince Andrew. The island is closed off, Ghislaine is scissoring it with Big Brenda behind bars
and I presume Virginia Giuffre won't be answering his letters. All that's left is the PizzaExpress in Woking to take
his orders.

With his inability to sweat due to an "adrenaline overdose" during the Falklands War, 'Handy-Andy' seems to have
been left out of the hullabaloo.

Woking? didn't the Martians land there in War of the Worlds? Andy might want to hang back from Woking...

I don't think it was just a coincidence that he used the name of that town. Andrew was living in Sunninghill, over
eight miles to Woking and for an unsecured pizza-store in downtown Woking to take his daughter on the exact
time he was supposedly stupping an underage girl, it just doesn't smell right.

Could he have been kidnapped travelling there or even in the place...? I hope I'd have come up with a better
tale to avoid such accusations than using a name like 'Woking'!!

Personally, I don't think Charles is going to be well received by his people, and/or the World (...at all). 

I fully expect Brexit to take on a whole new dimension, and this time it won't be just "talk".

He's a straight-up globalist.  That's not going to sit well with many.

In an odd way, the clock just got turned back about 78 years...and the 'Hitler' figure ain't dead yet!  Except the name ain't 'Hitler'.

I hope I'm wrong, but that's the way things are headed right now...on an Express train!

I agree with @"MisterSpock" that The House of Windsor has a lot of money and that Money Talks while bullshit walks.

While I'm genuinely sad the Queen has passed, I am sadder still that Chuckleberry survived her.  Maybe now that he's a Monarch he'll rethink a Nationalist approach and distance his country from Clown World.
