When the Queen Mother died, the Queen made a special speech where she said that the funeral would also be a reflection of "not just of her life, but for the times in which she lived". I think it'll be the same when the Queen passes away.

Exactly some ppl say the queen/monarchy is pointless ect but I completely disagree.. having a non-political spiritual leader is SO important to our culture and identity. It allows our country to have a.UNIFYING leader that everyone loves and can get behind - politics is the opposite of this as it is inherently highly dividing both through periods of history and during the present prime ministers come and go and are always hated / disliked by one half of the population. The fact the queen is above politics means everyone loves her she's a unifying and comforting figure to everyone in the UK and is a direct link to our history and culture. She brings a sense of stability to our very identity as a country.

HM The Queen never ceases to amaze.....

With deep respect to the Queen and all the people of the UK from Russia, St Petersburg. Once our nations were brothers in arms - and we won the cruelest and bloodiest war together, as allies. So let us be the brothers in peace that our fathers and grandfathers fought for. Both of our nations remember everything we lost and we can't forget these terrible sacrifices, but, as we are saying here, in Russia, "Forget the past and lose an eye; dwell on the past and lose both eyes." We have no right to forget and we have no right to call for revenge. We must remember it. So let us celebrate this day! Our ancestors brought peace to the world and we will be the ones who will preserve it. Their duty was to win the war. Our duty is to never let another great war happen. Long live the Queen! For the Motherland! Happy V-day! С Днём Победы, товарищи!

Although I'm not British and not Anglican, I find the Queen's speeches on any subject at all to be consistently honourable, dignified, superior, smart, intelligent, pleasing, truthful, down-to-earth, very human, noble, interesting and appealing, more than anything any of the popes at the Vatican has ever said, written or have ever done, in all of human history. The queen is more connected with the human race, that she is part of, more than any pope at the Vatican, past, present or future, at least in my book - And that is why I like, respect and appreciate the queen, like most of my fellow Commonwealth citizens do.

It’s amazing how George VI’s speech improved from his declaration of war speech in 1939 to this speech in 1945. That speech therapy really helped him. And Elizabeth has a great speaking voice as well.

Remember those that fought for our freedom! And watch out for those that still want to take it.... God bless the queen.

Those of us who were there remember them all. 🇬🇧
