My main concern is with another week to go, now the initial shock and response has passed, we’ll start to see an increase in incidents of anti-monarchist / republican / rights campaigners seeking to be disrupters / making a name for themselves.
Really, really hope I’m wrong and people positively surprise me. Feel like we’ve seen the UK at its best over the last few days and I’d hate that to go south. Just a week of dignity & respect, not a massive ask is it?
What was the protester on The Royal Mile in Edinburgh shouting about?
The classic British tradition of "Call a nonce a nonce"
Can I have some advice please. My wife and daughter age 9 are travelling down to London on Saturday. They want to see the Queen lying in state. It says on the government website that the ques will be long and could take up to 10hrs. Does anyone know will there be toilets etc. How does it work thanks
Unusually for a history buff and a big admirer of the Queen (though not necessarily a huge fan of the institution in recent times) I’ve actively watched relatively little of this momentous event unfold. Something about the blanket coverage and the Beeb’s obsequiousness is turning me off. And I’m not big on being told how I’m supposed to feel or behave. That said, it is difficult not to absorb it all albeit quite passively. What I will say with certainty four or five days in is that Charles is playing an absolute stormer. Hasn’t put a foot wrong so far in the most trying of circumstances. I worried about him but the early signs are encouraging.

This seems insane to me to get arrested over something like that
Like read the room for fucks sake.
