Now only if she would condemn sexual predator Andrew

Exactly. She needs to kick his fat arse over the Atlantic so that he can face justice. Disgusting man.

She's paying his legal fees with public money.

I'm a monarchist but this kind of stuff makes me long for a republic. Anyone know where I can get hold of a guillotine? ☠️

Right...

Of course he’s also a backseat driver.

She was a mechanic in WWII as well. Yes, Queen.

How I wish to be a fly on the wall ( or in this case in the car) to see this.

It’s hilarious that you posted this, tagged as #queenshit 😂😂😂
But also this came out today https://www.thedailybeast.com/queen-elizabeth-is-spending-millions-on-prince-andrews-epstein-lawsuit-report-says

She should cut him loose before he drags the whole royal family down with him.

Indeed
[–]BluefoxcrushFDS Newbie 86 points87 points88 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Or- hear me out- let the royal family be dragged down and removed altogether

I also wouldn’t consider the daily beast a reliable news source.
As someone who has worked in a high level political (and by that definition extremely sexist and conservative) work place - the fight is constant. And we don’t exactly have a great track record of of respecting women in their queen roles. So if she can take a win where she can get it...than good for her.

They’re sourcing it from The Telegraph, which is most definitely a reliable new source (in fact, I normally wouldn’t read them because they’re quite conservative).

Also, the queen isn’t political—she’s an unelected hereditary monarch. Different ballgame. I have also worked in politics.

People are complex, she's amazing for doing that but all the misogyny she's allowed and turn a blind eye to is disgusting. Who is paying sex pest Andrew's legal fees? The things she did to Diana and how that racist family treated Meghan, hardly any redeeming qualities in that family.

I agree. I am British and not the biggest fan of the Royal Family for these reasons. I loved Princess Diana, like most Brits and the way they treated her was the start of my dislike for them. Harry is the only one I like.

I remember teaching a class of young Saudi men who were doing their study abroad year. The topic that week was women’s rights. The topic of driving came up and they said we treat our women like queens and driving is too dangerous for them. This was before Saudi women were allowed to drive.

The way they pretzel-twist their minds into justifying whatever patriarchal bullshit just boggles me.
[–]DoversBlueFDS Newbie 14 points15 points16 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Wait, is that true? Hilarious, nonetheless. 🤣
[–]ButterfliesHurricaneFDS Newbie 17 points18 points19 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Absolutely true. She used to be a military driver during the war.
[–]ButterfliesHurricaneFDS Newbie 8 points9 points10 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Always loved this story! Our Queen really is a baddass driver 🤣
[–]miss_peach94FDS Newbie 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Only a low value woman like her would protect a predator. Poor example.

I don’t believe for a second she has much freedom to dictate what the monarchy does as a whole. None of us can pretend to know what goes on behind the scenes. At least she is making statements in the best way she can.

I have a soft spot for Liz because she kind of reminds me of my maternal grandmother. Grandma was a similarly well dressed, proper, and mannerly little old lady (truly little, like 5 feet tall and a 100 pounds soaking wet) but woe any man attempting to deny her what she wanted. Par exemple: she used to have annual private lunch with the mayor of our fairly large city. I know no one else outside politics who ever did this. Idk how she even did it, I think she just met him once and decided she needed to be personally kept appraised of political happenings from the man himself. Her give-no-fucks tenacity and drive all wrapped up in a purple Pendleton tweed suit are all the reasons I'm stoked to get old.

I get people want to sh*t on this post and point out all the issues wrong with the royal family. But I don’t think for a second she has completely autonomous control over everything that happens with the monarchy. We all have no idea what goes on behind the scenes and I have a feeling she takes power back and makes her point where she can. Some people don’t even do that much.
