I did too and I must say I found it quite moving, especially the mention of her first broadcast as a young girl with her sister. She’s seen a lot and we have enough in common that when the Queen speaks, people should listen. (The rest of the royals can safely be ignored!)

I particularly liked this line: “The pride in who we are is not a part of our past, it defines our present and our future”

That’s as close to MAGA as you’re going to hear from a British monarch. It’s the same vision most of us have for the USA as well, that the future is an extension of the past, not something completely different and foreign. The Queen recognizes there is nothing wrong with having pride in our past, despite Obama’s best efforts to demean and apologize for it.
