The Queen's Coronavirus broadcast: 'We will meet again' - BBC

BBC ^ | 5 April 2020

[DUMBGRUNT]

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II delivers a special broadcast to the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth in relation to the coronavirus outbreak.

The Queen has promised the nation that better days are ahead, during a special address on Sunday.

In a rare speech, she acknowledged the grief and financial hardships Britons are facing during the coronavirus pandemic.

Echoing the words of the Vera Lynn wartime song, she said that “we will meet again”.

Amazing that her first broadcast to the nation was 80 years ago.

When the UK loses the Queen, they will lose a lot.

GOD SAVE THE QUEEN !!

As usual she was calm and classy.

And Vera Lynn still lives!!!

‘We will meet again — except not you, Meghan Markle, you b——.”

Well stated... Times like these, a steady Queen is not a terrible thing for a country.

Did she mention Meghan Markle’s new reality show on E! Network...

Keeping up with the Mountebanks

I wonder what is going on in Harry's mind now?

His grandmother shows the world how it's done: you show courage in adversity, and offer hope. During the Queen's long life, she has lived through the Stock Market Crash of 1929, the Great Depression, World War II, the Cold War, and so much more.

Harry gave up being part of the Royal Family so that his liberal, Obama loving/Trump hating narcissistic wife could scheme with Oprah and Moochelle on how to market the Royal name on a website and sell handbags, shoes, clothing, and cosmetics.

Utterly disgusting.

Now, Harry is holed up in Canada with his nightmare of a spouse, watching his grandmother help to lead and calm his nation, and even the world.

Harry is holed up in Canada

They're in LA. House hunting in Malibu. $20m starter mansions.

tough old bird... with all the shit swirling around her, still the steady rock for the UK.

Regardless one’s sentiments re monarchies, Elizabeth is truly a Queen in the best sense of the word.

An amazing lady who will be sorely missed some day hence . . .

[TalBlack]

Yeah, better days, bla bla bla. There’s another flu season coming, Queenie, and another after that and possibly or probably another round of this very bug, so WHAT then? Gonna shut it all down again and hold hands singing I Will Survive?

After your post SkyPilot should be promoted to SkyCaptain. BTTT

This is what a good Queen does.

Didn't her parents do as well during WWII, by refusing to leave their palace in London, and instead provide an example of courage to the British people?

Vera Lynn.

The ginger p-whipped retard and his hag bride have moved to LA.
