Conspiracy - where is the queen?

147 replies

Greybutterfly · 27/03/2020 22:18

Is it just me or has anyone else been wondering where the queen has been in all of this?

This is the biggest crisis she has faced under her reign and yet she has not appeared to offer and support, encouragement or condolences.

To me this is highly disrespectful or is there another reason she is unavailable ... is she herself suffering from the virus or could she have passed away and we are being shelved from the truth?

Popcorn....

LouisaJenny · 27/03/2020 22:19

Pretty sure she issued a statement a week or so ago.

Utterlybutterly8 · 27/03/2020 22:20

I should imagine she’s self isolating if her son has got it!

Forza14 · 27/03/2020 22:21

What?

She put out a statement & she was photographed talking to Boris on the phone yesterday, thanking the NHS.

She’s a 92 year old woman. Any TV address would mean bringing a TV crew in to her.

Don’t be ridiculous.

Soph7777 · 27/03/2020 22:28

You are being ridiculous!

GarlicSoup · 27/03/2020 22:29

She’s 94 next month cut her some slack

TheoriginalLEM · 27/03/2020 22:30

I imagine she's self isolating!

Try getting a life OP.

Hmm
FuckeryOmbudsman · 27/03/2020 22:34

It's a good job that last weekly with Boris was on the phone.

They released still photos of that, she made a statement to the nation last week, and of course she signed off the pandemic Emergency Powers Act

So yeah, I think it's just you.

You can’t be serious? She’s ninety four ffs. She’s self isolating. Are you seriously thinking they should send a camera crew in to do a video for the nation? Or maybe she should do it selfie like on her phone? Oh I know, she should get Philip to do it on his. In fact they could live stream on insta the pair of them.

Get a grip, and educate yourself on the vulnerable.

Babyroobs · 27/03/2020 22:36

Boris did last see her 16 days ago though and he has now come down with the virus. Or Charles could have passed it to her. It could be hidden from us , who knows. It's perfectly feasible that she could be ill and we wouldn't know, I think a lot has been covered up to stop panic.

Bluntness100 · 27/03/2020 22:37

Well op looks like you found a fellow conspiracy theorist in baby...😂😂😂

AlexaShutUp · 27/03/2020 22:38

FFS! I'm no monarchist, but give the poor woman a break. She put out a statement some time last week, she can't be expected to keep commenting. She's very elderly and needs to prioritise her own safety.

kabalarian · 27/03/2020 22:38

The Queen is in her counting house counting out her money.

Babyroobs · 27/03/2020 22:39

Who knows what is being kept from us , but as others have said she's 93 and probably just chilling at Windsor castle for a while.

Allaboardthemagicbus2020 · 27/03/2020 22:39

Biggest crisis under her reign ??

History lesson time, OP

Allaboardthemagicbus2020 · 27/03/2020 22:40

@kabalarian

Castle. One of them.

mynameiscalypso · 27/03/2020 22:46

Someone - it might have been the BBC's royal correspondent - said she was deliberately not giving a public video address etc because the government wanted to ensure that the public didn't hear too many messages from different people which might cause confusion and cause people to ignore or miss important messages from the government about what we can and can't do.

nancy75 · 27/03/2020 22:49

What else has happened in her reign that’s worse than this? I can’t think of an event post ww2 that’s had more of an impact on the country? Not arguing just curious btw

Flipreverseit · 27/03/2020 22:50

Allaboard- what crisis in the last 68 years would you say was worse?

Crafting1Queen · 27/03/2020 22:51

Meanwhile, in the real world …...
