the clapping happened everywhere, infantalizing isn't right. the point of the clap was to communicate clearly "great job martyring yourselves to us" while that was still ongoing, the exact same people turned around and most vociferously denied a pay rise for that NHS staff like four months later and screamed at them for having the gall to politicise such things - because compensating them would make them less heroic.

I didn't realize there was a 25th amendment for kings. Does andrew automatically become prince regent or whatever?

You've done well, kiddo.
Apparently, it's a small council type thing where the next 5 people over 21 in line to the throne form a group that takes care of poo poo if the monarch is unwell or unable to perform duties. William is on it as well as Beatrice. It's just another dumb tradition thing, although I can see Andrew resuming royal duties once everything has settled down.

The crown is the source of all authority. If you don't have a clear line of succession the law stops working the next time the monarch is incapacitated, and crime becomes legal

The clapping felt like a brief moment of national solidarity for the people who change your bandages and take away your bins. It very quickly devolved into a grotesque spectacle of performative strong britain great nation bullshit. I hate the clapping it makes me sick to think about it.

no, she just got incredibly deathly sick with covid and became a recluse after getting it and died like seven months later despite the best medical care in the world. there's no correlation whatsoever between this happening to both her and her husband in like a year.
