Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has passed away at Balmoral Castle, confirmed by Buckingham Palace. The monarch served 70 years and 214 days. Prince Charles was swiftly sworn in as King Of England, and the commonwealth. Truly a sad day for our friends cross the pond.

🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧

She was an icon and her passing is a great loss.
It is as if an era has ended.

RIP

Long live the King

Goodluck to charles, she was a tough act to follow.

Hey Chuck, no hard feelings on that whole 1776 thing.

There's a 5 mile long, 12 hour plus wait queue to walk past the coffin, people are queuing day and night. In fact there is now a queue (known as The Line of Duty) to join the queue (known as the QE2 [get it?] to join the queue

Do you know the royal family employ a royal butt wiper, also King Charles has 6 hardboiled eggs cooked for him every morning he inspects them all until he finds one that is perfectly cooked and eats that one and the rest are then thrown away - FACT

As a human outside of England, who cares about the royal family!

FINALLY, may she rest in peace

Was up until almost 5am watching the funeral. She was without a doubt an incredible lady, no matter what she did or didn't do.

Agreed. Even with some dumb family members, which we all have, she was truly a tough lady, cared for her people even with some MPs and Prime ministers that were dumbaxxes. She in the earlier years had more say in policy, until those powers eventually were limited, I think (minus the trolls here) many of the approx 5 billion+ who watched were all a little British yesterday.

Never have I felt more British...well not since my butler, Jives, got shot in the arm in that unfortunate grouse shooting accident (the times I told him not to wear that grouse coloured overcoat). 'Don't worry sir it's only a flesh wound' said Jives. I tried to make Jives a nice cup of Earl Grey as we waited for the Ambulance but I couldn't work the stinking thing. What do you call it? - the tea maker - kettle thats it - stinking, wretched thing - Jives usually makes it of course.
Anyway Jives waited 16 hours for an ambulance - that's socialist health care for you! We'd have none of that back in the good old Edwardian times - a quick cauterisation and he'd have been good to go. Jives did survive but they had to take the arm off - he was never much good as a butler after that, fortunately post Brexit it was much easier to lay poor old Jives off, no stinking European Court to worry about these days! Taking back control from those fascists on the continent with their civil rights and employment laws! We didn't build the greatest Empire the world ever saw with employment laws you know. They couldn't manage to beat us in the 1940s and by golly we gave them a black eye again in 2016 and won't be propping up their unelected Euro empire any more with our great British pound notes! Tally ho I'm off to throw some more European travel guides on the fireplace, we tend not to use the gas heating here anymore its so frightfully expensive these days for some confounded reason.
