Interesting, apparently the #queen of #england was involved in a #coup in #australia in 1975: https://declassifiedaus.org/2022/11/11/t.. As one #hackernews #comment suggests, her #involvement is rather overstated in the #article https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=335..
#craigmurray rapidly losing #donation #support https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/.. My #suspicion it is to do with his remarks regarding the #queen and #royalfamily , or his #hatred of what he perceives as #farright #politics .
A great point raised on the #lotuseaters on people calling the #commonwealth #racist or damning the #queen - where is the #voluntary #french #commonwealth ? Or the #spanish ? Or the #dutch ? https://youtube.com/watch?v=g1KJ_1ixEjg The #british #empire #voluntarily disbanded and there was relatively little ill feeling as a result, to the point where previous #colonies choose to still be part of a club in its name.

It looks like #coutts , the #bank used by the #royals and formerly the #queen , are #advising people *not* to #upgrade their #ios https://www.coutts.com/coutts-digital/Ba.. Bare in mind you need a #minimum of 500k to even get an #account . Apparently their #app is pretty terrible and is now one of the only ways to #contact the #bank .
A very funny #story #played on #thelotuseaters of her #majesty the #queen https://youtube.com/watch?v=rZMbCDx8qIM A very awful time in #history . I suspect things will continue to get worse too.
Wow, apparently #bbc #radio 4 were whining about #white #privilege and #colonialism as a result of the #monarch - on the day of the #queen 's #death https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/bbc-wh..
#sad day to announce that the #queen is #dead . She will be sorely missed. We all hope that the new #king lives up to the exceptional standard she kept for 70 years.
Apparently #maori #leaders have demanded that #nz #remove the #queen as #headofstate https://www.lotuseaters.com/maori-call-f.. I understand some of the #historic #issues they have, but #kiwis already self-govern entirely, with the added #protection from the #monarch . The #reality is though that they want to see #white #people gone from the #islands entirely, which is impossible. The situation is complex, but for sure #compromise is needed.
When the #uk #government was having a #party in #downingstreet , the #queen was #burying #prince #philip https://www.lotuseaters.com/downing-stre.. The absolute insanity of this situation... #boris should #resign .
Wow, a #deranged #man tried to #assassinate the #queen on #christmas day due to " #racial #discrimination " that occurred before the Queen was even #born https://www.zerohedge.com/political/cros.. Apparently he is an #indian #sihk - and he was #sectioned and the #mental #health #act ... These crazy #leftwing #activists believe that #guilt is #inherited - insanity.
Wow, #meghanmarkle is offering to #testify against #prince #andrew (i.e. the #pedo #prince ): https://www.lotuseaters.com/meghan-markl.. Of course they are also struggling to remain #relevant after pissing off the #queen ... They really screwed over their #connection to the #royalfamily ...
