She reigned longer than any have or potentiallly will, it is what it is.
I am a Harry fan, I will leave it at that. Bloodline supremacy is a toxic idea to force a whole nation to adhere to.

She's been there forever. Part of the furniture I guess. Kinda like you are here. I rarely read your posts. When I do, I don't think much of them. Actually if I were to pick one of you to die, it'd be you, but I'd prefer you both lived forever. Or something.

If King Charles screws up. The monarchy will be damaged beyond repair.
Just look at the damage Harry and Meghan have caused.

Damage as in not supporting bloodline supremacy?

It has more to do with showing an ignorance of British history and colonial supremacy.

the royal family are literally the most expensive welfare family in history
they are merely ornamental
they have no place in government
their jewels should be auctioned off and their assets seized by the state
because what they "own" is property of the british people

Be careful, you went a step too far, you can be detained for treason if you ever set foot in UK after going as far to encourage an actual coup.
May she rest in peace.
That woman wasn't just the Queen of the UK. She was a relic from an older time. Not an actual veteran, but somebody who partook in the civic struggle against Nazi aggression during WWII. Somebody who, frankly, by all reason shouldn't have still been around in 2022.
A pointless legacy institution was given a face that people know and love. I suspect that because of her, the British monarchy will last longer than it otherwise would've. And so will the essence of what makes Britain British.
If we can just run a pawn to the other side.
We can get the Queen back can't we?
I'm sure thats how it works.
Oh, take me back to dear old Blighty
Put me on the train for London Town
Take me anywhere
Drop me anywhere
In Liverpool, Leeds or Birmingham
But I don't care
I should like to see—

And I was shocked into shame to discover
How I'm the 18th pale descendent
Of some old queen or other

So I broke into the Palace
With a sponge and a rusty spanner
She said, "Eh, I know you, and you cannot sing"
I said, "That's nothing, you should hear me play piano"

We can go for a walk where it's quiet and dry
And talk about precious things

But when you are tied to your mother's apron
No-one talks about castration

Past the pub that saps your body
And the church who'll snatch your money

The Queen is dead, boys
And it's so lonely on a limb

Pass the pub that wrecks your body
And the church, all they want is your money

The Queen is dead, boys

Australia's new government is seeking to remove the Queen as its head of state after being bound to Great Britain for over 200 years.
Officials in at least six countries in the Caribbean where Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II is head of state have signaled they intend to remove the monarch as their sovereign. These countries follow Barbados, which removed the queen as its head of state to become the region’s newest republic in November 2021.
A Scottish republic, with an elected head of state 69% · Maintain the Queen, but remove the monarchy when her reign ends
The writing is on the wall.

condemnation they have received and that has been driven by the gutter press,

They had been attacked and maligned by the press long before
that interview. When you read some of the remarks in the comments section of
these newspapers, the language used is of a kind normally reserved for serial
killers.

They are not poor but most of what they have belongs to “The
Crown,” which is a term used to represent the legal position of Monarch as head
of state, rather than personally or as an individual. So all the stuff like the palaces
and the jewels actually belong to the state.

Obviously they were not serial killers. They were not even in the country when the Queen died.
Charles is finally King. He doesn’t need help to embarrass the monarchy.

They were in the country when the Queen died and will remain
here until after the funeral.
So far Charles seems to be doing a good job and from the
reaction of the crowds he appears to be well liked.

You said it your self, “I said that the language used to attack them was of a kind normally reserved for serial killers.”
They were in the country when the Queen died and will remain here until after the funeral.
Harry was the last to arrive at Balmoral and first to leave for London the next day. They cannot associate the Queens death with Harry.

Wait till Australia, Scotland and the Caribbean islands break away ties from the monarchy after queen's death.

I think there would be huge public objection to selling them off as they
are seen as part of our heritage. Their estimated value is 4 Billion which is
far less than the money we wasted on our two silly aircraft carriers.
Although if we were to sell them off I’m sure Donald Trump would love the Imperial State Crown to wear.

the sticker price of the assets doesn't include the SAVINGS of all the maintenance and upkeep expenses
many old estates can't afford these fees and are forced to sell and or fall into disrepair

Many of the old estates have been opened up to
the public and their owners charge an admission fee to pay for upkeep and maintenance.
Some estates have been handed over to organisations like English Heritage and the National Trust, they are funded by charging admission fees, grants from the National Lottery and as many of these old houses are of historic interest there are also government grants.
Visiting old stately homes and castles is something I enjoy.
