LONDON BIRDGE HAS FALLEN!!
R.I.P Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
I grew up with the Queen reigning for about 41 years when I gracefully entered this world in 1993 ( I say gracefully but it was not gracefully actually far from it). We were all taught as kids that the monarchy are the Crown Jewels of the Commonwealth, we never saw the political implications and the duties that arise with a monarch. Me personally i have only have seen her on T.V. visiting people and making gracious appearances with the public. I know of one person that has physically met the Queen in person and they said she was tremdously gentle and very cordial.
Now for probably a very unpopular opinion
I don't believe i have had any direct effect from anything the Queen was able to provide but i can count on that i am probably being very ignorant. This does not mean i don't like the monarchy. I LOVE the monarchy, they bring in valuable revenue with tourism and local businesses stand in good stead when she makes a public appearance. We all hear stories if the amount of money that we as tax payers have paid towards the refurb of Buckingham Palace but i would love to see the numbers from the tourism generated from Her Majesty presence because i bet she will bring in more for the country than she will ever spend on refurbishment of Buckingham Palace or Windsor Castle.
We all mourn Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
Whether you like the monarchy or not! Respect must be shown and respects must be paid. The United Kingdom wont be the same without her.
GOD SAVE THE KING
