| #15 Overthrow the BEEOTCH, Tommy Knocker? You have an agenda? You really think any politician gives a rats arse about what she thinks? She and I both know they don't, and the reason for that. Go learn some, come back when you got a grip. |

| #14 "F" this old hag. Shes a relic from a time past. If she gave two shits, she would have spoken up sooner. Shame on her grandsons who are closer to it for not speaking up. England, wake up and finally overthrow this Beeotch and her family and get on with things. Your country is dying before your eyes! |

| #13 With the final stages of devolution ongoing, (see Scotland), and the EU regime pushing the limits, she's a babe, has a clue and is the last Queen of ENGLAND, forget Britain. |

| #10 ...One thing Gordo and his Labour buddies may have forgotten is that Her Majesty knows what it's like to be under fire - she rode out the Blitz and was a truck driver with the women's army auxilary (don't know the proper term for it). Prince Philip was in the RN during WWII and came under fire on several occasions. On top of that, Prince Andrew did sterling service in the Falklands War (I have read from more than one source that his actions there would have gotten him at least consideration for a VC had he not been a Royal) and Prince Harry did his time too. We may sniff at the actions of the Heir Apparent, but more than a few Windsors know the risks of combat, and they aren't appreciating what Gordo's doing. Mike |

| #8 When we were in England in 1986-87, there was a fire that destroyed a stable and killed about 40 horses. The Queen showed up and personally consoled the owners, even though she had no horse in that stable. The Queen knows what's going on, and does what she can to provide aid and comfort to her people. The one thing she doesn't like to hear is that Britain can't keep up with the rest of Western Europe or the US in military matters, especially when British troops are in mortal danger. Her reaction to the Falklands mess was a case in point. Unfortunately, Labour has been shorting whatever improvements the Queen would like to see. Heads WILL roll, if only figuratively. Prince Philip will have a hand in whatever changes take place. |

| #7 By the way, DV, "Queen Mum" was the name given to Elizabeth II's mother. After the death of King George VI, thought she was Queen, she could not succeed him as Queen, because of the rules of succession, but her daughter, QE II could. So she was given the honorary name of "Queen mother" to avoid confusion. |

| #2 It must be end-game for Brown now. The Queen just doesn't do this sort of thing (publicly). |
