Empathy for Our Queen? ( As a Mother)

If she’s not upto the job she should abdicate. Whilst she carries on being Queen she has to realise that’s her first priority. I lost a huge amount of respect for her when she deliberately photographed with him going to church w hen the story broke again in August. This story has been bubbling away with 2010 and in the last 9 years she had a duty and responsibility to make sure she was properly briefed and not just believe PA.

Possibly his daughters believe him, their mother is defending him, publicly.

Yes, I feel sorry for the Queen, must be so difficult separating
being a mother and being the monarch , which ever decision she makes on this she will be criticised,

I feel sorry for Charles too, he and Camilla are on an official visit to New Zealand, no coverage in the media. Plus Andrew will be an ongoing problem for him.

Spot on MawB, especially your last sentence. ?

It’s a pity we don’t have an Empire any more.
There must be some incredibly remote and far-flung corner where Andy could be Governor General, where lovely hula dancers provided the entertainment without any media interference and he could be as un-PC as he liked.
Oh and a golf course and he could have Trump there too.
I reckon Boris Johnson would enjoy visiting him there. Even better if it was only accessible by banana boat on a clear day without an ‘R’ in the month. ⛳️⛴?<sigh>

I feel for her, absolutely.

I don’t think her age has anything to do with it though.

I feel for Beatrice and Eugenie as well. How horrible for them to find out what kind of man their father is. I don’t know how that relationship recovers.
