I so wished I had been in a position to have moved from England and gone to an EU country. I am not sure how much more I can take by living in this country.

If you are a Tory loving Brexiter I am so sorry but I am not the sort of person to speak to as I detest Brexit and I detest the way the Tories have ruined the UK. I also do not like the selfishness that Brexiters are. Please don’t tell me you aren’t because you are.

The coronation again and mentioning the Queen Consort becoming Queen. Well, I am sorry but she will never be Queen in my eyes. All I think of when I see Camilla is poor Princess Diana and the way the palace tried to take away her children from her/trying to strip her of her title
