@Snitch L9l
Remember the Queen! May she rest in peace!
Charles: oh no, anyway *puts on crown*
@A1234 no but word class medical care buys you another 30 years
i love how this video perfectly portrays each country’s mannerisms, germany being straight to the point, italy being somewhat laid back about it, france being elegant, while america fumbles it’s words
@jim speak for yourself, I don’t fumble my words. I will say what I need to say clearly and directly.
@Eren Karaburun I have some really unfortunate news about America
@Aktchung Rabanio I hope so! Just because it annoys you.
@Mrs. Kinder that’s what news all over the world does. Nothing special. She just wasn’t prepared and that’s human. Could happen to anyone even you. 🙂
Dedicated 70 years to her country. I don’t think there can be another monarch like the Queen. She’ll be greatly missed, it’s not going to be the same without her. What fascinated me is the timing of it all – that she passed so soon after greeting the new PM. It’s as if she had completed her final task and now can rest.
yeah and the fact that you’rea bot who copied someones comment is disgusting
@Prasam Mehta and your point is what exactly? The colonisation of India was started long before she came to the throne. Move on.
Imagine if Rishi would been nominated as pm then she would have seen a pm before her last breath whose origin of country once ruled by her!
I’m even more amazed by your profile picture
Truly the end of an era, there will be no other “royals” to reach that level of love and respect.
Her line hasn’t ended but her era most certainly has. This woman has lead the UK and it’s other royal sovereigns since shortly after WWII, most of the world’s lifetime. It’s a monumental loss, literally.
@Kris B We pay for the policing. We do not put money into the pockets of the royal family. 100% of the profits from the royal estates go directly to the government in the form of taxes and after TWO YEARS they get between 15% and 25% back. Think of it like a tax rebate that they have to wait 24 months for. Just because it comes from the government does not mean it’s money that you or I put there.
@Kris B The queen served the country, her people and the commonwealth until her last breath, I’m sure you wouldn’t be able to something worth even half that calibre.
Many nations still have their own royal families but in almost every nation in the world if you simple say “The Queen” without qualifier they automatically think of the Queen of England, 96 years of life, more then 70 years as Queen, Wartime Ambulance driver, public servant, diplomat without equal, wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother…. and as someone who has worked with soldiers who guarded and met her personally an all round nice woman i’m told.
Time for all this nonsense to come to an end with her passing. Monarchy is archaic.
The Queen is indeed loved by all, England is so lucky to have her as queen
We call her “The tyrant” in my country.
@D V who?
@Myamwez Myamwez The Queen lays 2,000 eggs per day.
Amazing how she isn’t just “Queen of England” or “Queen of the UK” or “Queen Elizabeth” – she is just… The Queen.
@CaptainsHIGH Asan Aussie let me correct you. We are not owned. We stopped being a colony and gained independence in 1901.
The Queen as head of state is a ceremonial position as we remained a commonwealth nation.
Try google things before commenting.
@King Pop xd
@Steven He for commonwealth nations like New Zealand Canada Australia ect Queen Elizabeth 2 was head of state a ceremonial position only. She was not active in governance of those nations. the Prime minster governs the nation and is democratically elected.
“It has been women who have breathed gentleness and care into the hard progress of humankind.” – Queen Elizabeth
Are you kidding me?
@Chris Buckler it’s not sexist when a man says it but it’s sexist when a woman says it? Ok then 😂
The queen was a feminist
@schwarz ruled what? UK? Technically correct, but like still
@Le_Meme_Man she never ruled
Our iconic, unique, irreplaceable Queen was the true jewel in the Crown. Her death seems wrong – it felt as if she’d always been here and always would be, like the green hills and sparkling streams of Britain itself. My heart is broken. The Britain she leaves is unrecognisable from the one she was born into in many ways but she embodied its indomitable spirit. Duty, sacrifice, stoicism, grace, manners, humility, wisdom and humour – she epitomised the very heart of Britain and I fear we shall not see her like again. Rest in peace dear Elizabeth you shall be missed.
“It has always been easy to hate and destroy. To build and to cherish is much more difficult” – Queen Elizabeth ll 💙
wasn’t she racist or something 💀
@Finn Tran even worse it is a nelson mandela quote & some crown-licker thinks it was said by the dead bag
Shame I couldn’t have personally destroyed the Queen then cause I was already hella hating
😂😂😂😂 lol, quote is coming from looters and murderers
