She's a selfish mother. She should have abdicated her throne to her son, Charles, years ago. He fulfilled his most important duty; he provided two heirs so that the monarchy will survive:
"The purpose of the British Royal Family is procreation; its prime duty is to produce at least one heir to the throne. Each heir has to provide a child that will guarantee the survival of a monarchy that began with Athelstan, the first king of all- England in 926."

I don't know why they haven't hired 5 gardeners to continue Michelle's organic garden.

Wow. That from a Trump supporter. One things for sure, she has more dignity in the nail of her little finger than your man has shown in his whole life.

Nonsense. I've seen some rubbish on forums and the internet and this is pretty much near the top of the pile. We've only had one abdication and that was for particular reasons at the time. The Queen is still fulfilling her duties, no reason whatever she should abdicate. The monarch serves until they die and then their heir takes over. That's how it works. Nothing to do with being selfish. It's her duty to serve, that's what she was born into and that's what she's doing.

And, the most bizarre thing is the whole time Barry O was in office you heard nary a peep about anything. He was so awesome!

The Queen goes on official State visits abroad. She also invites other world leaders to come to the United Kingdom and is limited to non-partisan functions such as bestowing honors and appointing the Prime Minister.
I can just see the sweat pouring off her now.

If she ain't sweating it, that means she is still up to the job.

When Queen Elizabeth meets the royal babies and they are crying she explains to them, 'don't worry, you'll never have to work a day in your life'.

I wasn't posting here (OT), at the time; otherwise, you would have.

She could abdicate. It's been talked about before. It's not like she's going outside of her immediate family. I think she's being selfish. My opinion!
