It’s intriguing to me that the plan for her death was leaked a couple of months ago. It’s gotta be imminent.
Her funeral is going to turn London into the mother of all super spreader events.
the prime minister will be alerted by a phone call from a civil servant telling him or her “London Bridge is down,”
Lol these people are such dorks.
I'm assuming this goes back to some bullshit about how saying a monarch died is besmirching the legacy of people who were born gooder and as such it is no proper thing to do
this is a country that bases it's internal tax haven on "time immemorial" because nobody could produce any evidence as to why it's gotta be like that, but it is like that, so it obviously it has to be like that.
the prime minister will be alerted by a phone call from a civil servant telling him or her “London Bridge is down,
And WeedReference420 is down (for the day off we'll probably get when she finally fucking dies ayyyyyy)
And if london bridge collapses, the prime minister gets a call saying "Queen Elizabeth II has died"
I was hoping it would be an eye of sauron type of situation where Britain would be wiped from existence when she died
Nah, that comes when all of the royal lineage have died with no heirs
Is the funeral gonna be bigger than the one for Diana after mossad killed her? Commercial free coverage on all the major broadcasters even in the states.

ugh I know my mom will be watching she loves the royal family. America's obsession with them is so cringe.
If you need to meet her in chud territory, just remind her "lol we fought a whole war to get away from them but ok I guess,"
Check out the first chapter of "Gideon's Spies." If you have a library card you might find it on Overdrive. On the off chance you have a Los Angeles Public Library card it is available on Overdrive
It is going to break the brains of every Brexit voter in the country to be faced with King Charles and Queen Camilla. That, combined with an ever collapsing economy, the reunification of Ireland and Scottish independence…the death of the United Kingdom is almost happening in real time. I think England could honestly go full fash quite quickly.
As amusing as it is to laugh at Brexit Gammons, there is going to be immense suffering and violence coming for the most vulnerable on that godforsaken island.
I don't think brexit voters are going to give a tiny little shit about charlie's milquetoast pro europe views tbh. if he's the king he's the king and they're duty bound by the flag shaggers charter of 1066 to love him more than their mams. it won't present a flicker of dissonance.
True, the royals do hold a pretty cosmic place for gammons. Even with how hated Charles has been for all his life.
I reckon there’s a chance that there’d be a campaign against Charles from the right, as silly as that sounds. I think it all depends on how vocal Charles is, and how grim things get for ordinary people. I could see the government and the press turning on Charles along the lines of a slapstick version of To Play The King to maintain their grasp on power. I might be afflicted with :LIB: brain with this line of thought though :shrug-outta-hecks:
idk, I just can't see it really. I don't think his beliefs are a threat to power in any way so why would they bother?
the extent of his environmentalism from what I've seen is pretty much geared around sustainable farming and fishing
his housing and nhs advocacy is pretty much just localism
(don't get me wrong its probably better than what either party are offering atm)
but the right would be able to metabolise that stuff really easily, and it'd save them a pretty big schism point.
there are definitely some right wing media and political figures that have axes to grind with him but I think they're good at getting in line when it benefits the tories.
be funny though
Gonna shit on the queens picture and wipe my ass with pictures of her stupid children
More people care about William than care about Charles, who is actually next in line. Charles is just a giant nothing and I'm hoping that him being king leads to the end of the monarchy
Charles is already wildly unpopular. Hopefully her death leads to the end of the monarchy.
Actually seems entirely possible. I think with a really unpopular, indefensible, uncharismatic old ghoul suddenly taking over, there will be a lot of discussion about whether there really needs to be any such thing as a monarchy in the year 2021.
Yep. Whether it ends up happening or not, it's going to be an entertaining shitshow.
can't wait. it's going to be a great time. gonna buy the tackiest funeral merch they sell.
it's mad how old she is really, she was queen before my dad was born and he's old as fuck now.
When she eventually bites it that's all the damn media anywhere is going to play for weeks, sort of like all those bs weddings. Forget that old bat.
