State Opening Of Parliament 09:18 - May 10 with 892 views | SaintNick | The queen will miss it, at 96 I'm not sure that she has the health anymore to be able to take on Royal duties,, whatever you think of Prince Charles and the monarchy, I think it is time to step down before she is worked to death | |

State Opening Of Parliament on 09:25 - May 10 with 882 views | Sadoldgit | From what she has said in the past, she will not abdicate and will die in office. The poor old dear looks like she hasn’t got much longer left. I guess they are trying to keep her going to see through the jubilee. No reason why Charles and William can’t cover the appearances between them and only wheel her out when she is up to it and it is absolutely necessary. | | | |

Agreed, but those around her perhaps need to persuade her to take a step back | |

I think that is her problem Nick, with her “mobility problems” she can’t take a step anywhere! | | | |
State Opening Of Parliament on 00:47 - May 11 with 695 views | darthvader | I was in london the last couple of days . Saw the magnificent MUSE at the Hammersmith Apollo , and today mosied on down to the house of commons to see the Queen only to be told that thankfully she stayed in bed . Bless her . I did see the two HRHs in her place though so the trip wasnt for nothing . I agree as said above by others that she needs to rest or retire asap after the jubilee after a life time of service( obv the most memorable for her was presenting the 1976 FACUP to the winners ). Our Queen deserves i fitting tribute and then to rest easy . | |

State Opening Of Parliament on 08:51 - May 11 with 606 views | saint901 | We should retire the whole of the monarchy when she gives up her post voluntarily or otherwise. That family is hardly a moral or ethical beacon we can look up to and respect as something to aspire to. There is a whole battalion of hangers on who should also be forced to look for gainful employment. And yes I can already hear the "lifetime of service", "hard working", "think of the tourists" nonsense being typed in response. The monarchy and its outdated elevation of people above others by accident of birth has had its day and it's time to move on. | | | |

we could take a leaf out of the French book and hold public guillotine sessions for the monarchy. Netflix would wet themselves for the streaming rights Could also do a special for the royal corgis with Ant & Dec hosting a telethon to pick the order | |

Zillions of aristos? Really? Because there are absolutely no elites in a republic… Bowing and scraping? Yeah, right. | |
