Exceptionally cloistered perhaps...

Never put a foot wrong since 1953 (Unlike her dimwit off springs)

A wonderful woman, we are lucky to have her

I suspect some would argue otherwise.

I would say both statements are true, most of society reflect to some extent British values which she promotes. An while she gets to live in a castle with servants etc she also pretty much gave up her own life for charity and figure head duties form the day she was crowned and it seems she will do it till she dies.

Seems based on current royals its actually harder than you might think.

Right tone. Good message. Has misjudged the message in the past but that was solid.

It's a free country, that's just my opinion.

Whether you like her or not the speech was spot on.

I’m far from a royalist, but that was very well done.

Touchy, have not criticised your opinion, just that she let the mantle slip a bit in 1997.

I didn't watch the speech so cannot possibly comment on that.

She's a class act. That was spot-on.

How much of her speeches are her words though and how much is scripted for her?

What does it matter. She's the Head of State.

Must say I’m slightly disappointed. Was hoping she’d do it in a Donald Trump stylee.
