Thread: With deep respect for Elizabeth R

An era which saw Queen Elizabeth 2nd set a lifes example of stoic decency. Rest in peace Queen Elizabeth.

Hear hear, RIP Queen Elizabeth II

RIP - what a wonderful woman.

RIP Queen Elizabeth II.
During her long reign never really put a foot wrong, no scandals.
Feels a little like I have just lost my Grandmother

Indeed a lot of uncertainty and end of an era what an amazing reign Rest In Peace

As ambivalent as I am to the the Royals, I do have a genuine regard and understanding that:

Elizabeth II, left this world a better place than she found it.

RIP

I am definitely not a royalist and do not support the monarchy or the royal family but there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that Queen Elizabeth II had a positive influence on the world we live in and for the she had my respect. Rest In Peace.

@Rushy
And here I am thinking you couldn’t wait for big ears to reign!
It’s going to be hard to hold it all together for the royals now, god she must have cried some tears and felt the shame of her kids. Edward and Anne were the only decent ones
What an amazing monarch, she certainly had my respect.

Hand the reigns to William, Charlie is pas t retirement and William might be better long-term. He's never been cast in a dim light.

It begs the question with no disrespect to the dead but the FnG in NZ was founded on the basis that the people in NZ would not be subject to the tryranny of the landed gentry. Time we moved on . Suggest you go to Waitangi and soak up what is our true heritage. Charles who was porking Camilla on his wedding night. Go figure.

Also not a royalist nor an anti, they are what they are.

...long live the queen!

I'm also ambivalent about the royal family, but wonder if we are now a step closer to the Socialist Republics of Aotearoa. I can't be the only one thinking it.

likely time for NZ and Australia to have some serious conversations about that issue - even though I am not a royalist I did admire the Queens attitude - but Charles as our head of state different ball game -He may be in name but to me personally no way

And if that happens we can ditch the Treaty
