The Queen In Scotland.

I think old Lizzie was born in London volver She wasn't the nice wee granny the media reported .

Yes she was born in London . Princess Margaret was certainly born in Glamis Castle .

Hope nobody's offended by the reference to the DoE. This is quite old.

No one should own a sea bed, or big swathes of country or land. Its not right. I love the Queen, she does a good job, but apart from her official residence and one home, the rest should be given to the nation. Don’t agree with her families grace and favour residences either, they got a good education so earn the money to buy one,

Maybe Tracy Ullman should do a new sketch where NS captures the Queen ??

I’d put money on it being a perfectly civil and innocuous meeting

Yes. I just meant that to my ears they both sound clipped but in different ways, cos diff accents, obv.

Lucca you obviously didn't see NS's endless attention seeking seeking day after day on TV during Covid. After waiting for ages for her to actually get to the point we didn't watch her again.

Not obviously at all. Whenever I’ve seen her she has spoken clearly. Particularly impressed with her refusal to rise to the bait in an interview where she was
clearly being prompted to slag off Johnson.

The Queen meets Sturgeon on a regular basis, last time was probably when the Queen was here to open the latest session of Parliament. But we don't get to hear about it often because its confidential. Just like when the Queen meets Johnson. So don't be attributing any special meaning to he fact they are meeting the day after the announcement.

I've got to say, I'm loving the Unionist response to this whole thing. Bring it on folks. ?

I doubt the Queen waffles on either. Well clipped is what I imagine but, who knows, maybe they gushed ?

FM Nichola Sturgeon is due to meet with the Queen today at Holyrood Palace. I'd love to be a fly on the wall at that meeting, particularly in light of yesterday's announcements.

Preferable to meeting BJ….
Say what you like about NS but she doesn’t waffle on!

She stepped off the train unaided

I was surprised to see her out and about after the Jubilee but very pleased she can still manage some things. Her health seems to wax and wane which is understandable at her age. I think she can cope with events which do not involve much walking or standing for a long time.

She will indeed henetha I agree.

I noticed that. And for the first time, I saw her as a little old lady. So sad. She will go down in history as a wonderful Queen.

HM the Queen has a beautiful smile that reaches her eyes just lately. For a 96y old she is wonderful. Hats off to you Ma’am and it’s great to see you enjoying life in one of your favourite places! I noticed she struggled trying to pick up those ceremonial keys from the velvet cushion however.

I envy the Queen being in Scotland again. My sister who lives in Scotland is about to move back to England now that her husband has died, so my regular trips to Scotland will come to an end.

Why?

You want self determination for the Scottish people Ms. Sturgeon? What a jolly good idea! My sister and Mum were born in Scotland, you know.

Lovely to see the Queen out and about in Scotland. The Queen is unfailingly polite, whatever her personal thoughts are.

Why will she have to be polite ?

The Queen is very polite. She'll have to be!

I didn’t think we would see HM out and about after the Jubilee, but she looked relaxed and happy in Edinburgh.

She loves Scotland doesn’t she
