Trump has left Liz waiting

[Mqriejonea]

Is this normal? She's been standing for 2 mins now..

I had to pause to catch my breath and stop the laughter when I read how Mqriejonea seemed to be offended that the orange man and his wife didn't bow or curtsy.
Why on earth would they? Americans are in that sense wise. They bow to no-one.

ToetoToe the fact that the queen is still robust compared to others of her age is testament to the life of extreme privilege she's had. Most 92 year olds don't have access to their own private pyscician. Most have to wait weeks if not months for scans, operarations etc. Most don't have a household full of servants attending their every need. Unlike other women of her generation the queen has never had to struggle to feed and clothe her kids, pay the bills and keep a roof over their heads. A life of poverty will have a huge impact on heath in later life.

No bloody wonder most 92 year olds aren't as strong as her. The "work" that the queen does is NOTHING compared to what these women have done. If it was in any way arduous you can be sure she wouldn't be doing it.

The queen represents everything that is wrong in our country, she's a throwback to our inglorious past, are are an affront to democracy.

*and are

I think my favourite it tangerine twat. So fitting

Poor Queen.

If he doesn't respect her as the Queen, he should at least respect her as an elder.

But their people must coordinate these things?

So I think Queen is feeling strong today and decided to stand out a bit early to fuck with him. 🤣

Who's he playing golf with?

Hi guys anyone want a game, I'm a gracious winner and calm loser

Poor queen?my fuckin arse
She’s has a life of privilege, servants,physicians,ladies in waiting
Job?no. She undertakes tasks.tasks that aren’t overly onerous
A life of privilege + advantage doesn’t = work.dont insult working people

She could have taken a corgi with her.

That photo in the hallway at Windsor Castle looks like an auction house. All a bit higgildy piggildy (ok that's not how you spell it but you know what I mean!) Also, the dog bowl on the little plastic mat just brings that little bit of eccentricity to the whole thing :)

Lipstick well said
shes never had to struggle no wonder they live such a long life

I can’t stand all this ma’am works so hard. No. A live of privilege isn’t work
Work,is the thing the vast majority of us do.we are subject to external pressures,and demands. No servants.no ladies in waiting to cushion the demands
Let’s not remotely compare the cushioned privileged life of queen to a regular older adult
Older adult has a medical need,they’ll potentially join a waiting list. They’ll potentially sell their home to pay for care should their health deteriorate.
The queen will never face the difficult decision of funding health care

Trump makes Jimmy Saville look like mother teresa. I'm not a royalist, but making that nice old lady have to spend any time with him gives me the creeps.

Trump is odious,however there is no suggestion he’s a necrophiliac paedophile

in military circles the Queen is referred to as HM.

I know someone who knows her well - old family, connected blah blah.
he says in private she is very funny, has a razor sharp wit and is great company.He told me of a recent meeting with her when he hadn't seen her for sometime (backstory is that she knows his mother and his mother is, by all accounts, rather eccentric)
queen - good afternoon X
X - good afternoon ma'am
Queen - how is your mother?
X - very well ma'am
Queen - still barking mad?
X - absolutely ma'am.
queen - excellent!

hot cake youre a drama queen in the nicest way

Demented,I’d expect someone with queens advantage to maintain adequate social rapport
And in fairness excellent that’s hardly a searing witty riposte.

hot cake youre a drama queen in the nicest way
I'm going to take that as a compliment, thanks!
Trump is a rapey fascist though isn't he.

Yes he is

Shall I explain the internet to you Fran
I can read and internet, mn, It’s not real life
I do not know anyone in real life who is complimentary about monarchy

Really? I grew up in a Guardian-reading family in a Guardian-reading community and even I know people who support the monarchy.

lipstick i didn't give it as an example of a searing witty repost. As I'm not privvy to the conversations at dinner parties I can't give you any examples that might amuse you more, but am told she is very funny.

she was maintaining adequate social rapport with someone who is an old family friend. Not sure what your point was....

My point is excellent well it’s not searing,funny or wow she just said that

As for Trump, I expect Prince Philip wasn't there because he'd have wanted to discuss watersports.
