    I actually have a soft spot for queen. My love of history & tradition wars with quite a strong socialist streak & leaves me very conflicted! https://twitter.com/bazingapunk1508/status/819925112493379584 …

        I just don't think her opinion on Brexit counts for much unless accompanied by strong argument backed up by much research. Like every1 else!

        TBF, queen is not claiming to be an expert whose opinion should carry weight. Keeping out of it.But ppl desperate to know what side she's on

        And that, to me, is the problem. Not the queen herself but ppl who'd see loyalty to or rejection of her as remotely relevant here.

        Between 1066 and now, there have been only 2 rulers of England who could be said to have been English. @MMads @Zacnaloen

        English have always been a weird Norse/German/Celtic hybrid. It's not really any issue lol

        I used to find Charles quite endearing when he appeared to be a benign, bumbling eccentric best known for talking to plants.

        Must admit that Charles and me align perfectly on the subject of architecture, lol.

        @bazingapunk1508 I enjoy hearing about all the powers the queen has in Commonwealth governments, so long as she never uses them.

        Stepping out of her figurehead role would be the quickest way to end the monarchy.

        @bazingapunk1508 that's how they've survived: sentiment. We must be rational about this illogical institution!
