Sort of like during the London Blitz in WWII. King George VI and the Queen Mum were advised to leave London and take princesses Elizabeth and Margaret with them so that they'd be safe.

They refused to leave - stating that they would stay with their fellow Londoners. This is one of the things that endeared the elder Windsors to the British people.

Well, there's class and then there's ignorance and stupidity.
