So how does this "royal" bullshit work?

When wing nut dies and Willie becomes King, does his misses become queen or is she just the kings wife?

Also does the horse wing nut is married to a queen now?

Albanese became the first PM to swear in a minister for the republic & was pushing for Australia to become a republic. I guess he won’t mention that for a while now
From memory, Albo appointed an “Assistant Minister for the Republic” without there actually being a “Minister of the Republic”to assist!

I understand it’s protocol to have this public holiday next Thursday but why should businesses have to pay for a late notice public holiday? They should be subsidised by government or take some money out of what we send to the royals every year.

I really feel sorry for gravely ill people having to cancel important medical appointments and surgery

It’s a mess. The legal system is scrambling to re-schedule hearings, I’ve got a mate building a house who was expecting a huge delivery of materials that day who’s been told his delivery will be pushed back two weeks as there’s no other slots and I’m sure there’s countless other disruptions. And for what?

I mean I’m all for respecting Lizzie and the longevity of her reign but do we honestly believe people will use the day to ‘mourn’? Please. And why do it on such short notice when it’s so disruptive? Is there a protocol that says it must be the same week of the funeral?

Surely it could’ve been better thought through…

William's chic becomes just his missus, prolly a duchess or something.
Charles should of skipped the King thing and gave it to William straight up who is young enough to win the young generation and be relevant.

It’s going to affect a lot of people.
Apparently it needs to be the day after the PM & GG get back from the funeral. With Albo spending so much time overseas already they could’ve at least come back a day later and made it a long weekend. How many people will call in sick on the Friday now!

If they are going to have one..do it on a weekend..Saturday or Sunday.. Just on medical appointments and surgery..people have already had the like cancelled or delayed due to Covid..

Now experts are speculating how she died. My theory is Colonel Mustard in the Dining Room with the candlestick.
I feel a little guilty..but that is just too funny..
