It’s the life time of service stuff that gets me. WHAT SERVICE??? Like what the gently caress are they talking about. It’s absolutely the strangest part of all this that a random family who get to live lives of untold luxury with every need met at all times have managed to PR half the country into thinking that THEY served THEM.

There's a kind of Schrodinger's Monarch thing going on here. The Queen gave decades of service and worked hard for are cuntry but when you ask people why she didn't fix all the poo poo that's going on they're like "oh uh it's a constitutional monarchy her hands were tied..."

Yeah, it's not uncommon for the undead to protest about being entombed in a wooden box for the rest of eternity. There was quite a chase to get her in there in the first place, as this leaked CCTV image from Balmoral highlights



e: Oh no, that's recent. She's escaped!

She's really let her mask slip now



Now she's super pissed:

Unhinged. Wasn’t this guy one of the main mouthpieces of FBPE? I feel like these sort of people (the sensible, rational centrist, or however they see themselves) would have been confidently republican a few years ago. What happened? There must be more to it than ‘Corbyn broke their brains’.

I guess it’s a similar trajectory to New Atheists in their pivot to being reactionaries. From ‘sceptics in the pub’ to.. whatever this is

Good god no, the fbpe brigade are liberals, they absolutely hate change, the queen is a noble servant of our country and we should show her proper respect etc etc, as dunt says she's an institution and they loving love institutions.

The queen is like, the most decorum thing to ever exist, of course they loving love her.

Probably also the ongoing (and accelerating!) breakdown of society. As things become more hosed, Sensibles cling ever more desperately to institutions, since they find institutions A Thing familiar and comforting (because the alternative - community ties - is incomprehensible to liberals)

Centrists are small c conservatives, it's all about having a comfortable status quo to maintain. The financial crisis followed by brexit (and Trump if you want to look more globally) have left that comfortable status quo looking more and more precarious and all they can think of is trying to go back to pre-Iraq "end of history" Blairism.

Yeah, the ideal for these people is having the right autocrat in charge, not anything approaching democracy. The right autocrat being the one that keeps things the same while presenting the serious image of competence they imagine represents themselves.

Like, didn't they actually ask the Queen to stop Brexit?

They also have to be loving quick incase a real thing happens at the crucial moment.

I agree, the police do much much worse things than this to get worked up about.
