God Save Whatsherface

Queen Elizabeth has passed on. I can't say I'm unhappy about it. She was a tyrant to the people of Ireland, Wales, and numerous other British colonies, especially Austrailia. She was in favor of the unjust prosecution of freedom fighters and separatists. She actively suppressed indigenous cultures, along with the rest of her family. Since the Windsors own 1/4 of all the property in the UK, you'd think QE2 wouldn't require taxpayer funds to celebrate her jubilee, but there you have it. Mixed reactions from Wales, some of whom are in mourning -- but I'm also told that others were lighting fireworks, lifting a glass, and /or downright ignoring the funerals, parades, and pomp and circumstance. No council in Wales broadcast the funeral services. Others are saying "give Wales back to the Welsh" and are unhappy about someone from the Windsor line, who are historically and genetically NOT Cymric, becoming "Prince of Wales". Sorry for the political post, but I had to say something.
