Platinum Jubilee

[spaldy]

As a yank I don’t always understand the monarchy but anyone can see she has committed her life to the institution

Wish our rulers were half as dedicated

Many would be pleased to just live till 70, so for her to be Queen for that period of time is extraordinary. Fraility has set in, but such grace and dignity in her appearance still. I'm not a lover of royalty in particular, but the way traditions are upheld with ceremonies and celebrated events certainly fascinates me. Wishing her good health going forward. ☺

At least our rulers have to work for a living all the monarchies do is get free billions and make occasional appearances. I'll never forgive her for overturning our best ever hope of a prime minister who in a short space provided Australians with free medical and other things witch still stand the length of time.
Not really sure but I think very few countries have kings and queens nowadays.
