Everyone who lost loved ones deserved better. The queen is a figurehead for all of them, however, as the footage of her sitting alone at her husband's funeral were seen by so many.
I think this is the point. The Queen, at an advanced age, sitting alone at her beloved husband's funeral, illustrates the mood of a country whose rituals were so disrupted by Covid rules. Those rules observed (even if reluctantly) by the majority. To now find out that 'those in charge' were blatantly ignoring them is more than a 'kick in the teeth' ...... how are we supposed to deal with the fact we let our loved ones die alone, nobody holding their hand.... we let loved ones sink into a pit of despair from lack of human contact.....and all the time staff at Downing Street were enjoying 'drinks parties' in the gardens. My NHS family members were exhausted, they'd have refused any party invites in favour of a few hours uninterrupted sleep.....
