I can confirm the sky hasn't fallen in and there is no wailing widows in blackened garb blocking up the town. Mind you the junkies look sad, sad and shifty. I went for a pint in Greenock last night and ended up seeing a near scrap because one person said they were mourning and another guy basically pointed and laughed in his face. Needed some intervention before it got ugly. I can't imagine getting so upset about someone you didn't know. Guaranteed it won't be the first or last time something kicks off because the old bird's booted the bucket. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soapy FFC Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 It's like a swarm of Establishment Dementors have been unleashed on the country to suck out any joy and happiness in people's lives. Listening to any radio station is so depressing. I hope the forced mourning isn't going to cause problems with people who already suffer from depression or other mental health issues.

Frank Quitely Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 The Queen was some wummin. She even managed to push Sturgeon's name off the front of the Scottish editions of Daily Mail and Daily Express. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nutz_the_Squirrel Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 I am absolutely supportive of anyone who is struggling with the Queen’s death and feeling sad or a sense of mourning. What I am struggling with is the blanket cancellation of every day activities, or social expectation of a somber mood at every turn which is actually likely to create a sense of unease and upset in people who have little emotional connection to the Queen’s death. It’s suffocation by reverence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTJohnboy Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 Good speech by Blackford in the Commons tributes to the Queen, followed by a typical garbled mess by BoJo. Harriet Harman then comes on in fulsome praise of he who lied to the Queen, and partied on the eve of Philip's funeral, along with so many other indescretions. Nice little cosy cartel there, evident as usual between Labour and Tories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if those people who constantly whinge about cancel culture will have any comment to make? Thankfully it appears that Kevin Bridges is still on tonight.
