Ok, I have two paths, both through QEII, but the shorter is: Me Dale Chihuly QEII Eden (wondering if she ever actually shook hands with Edward) Hitler The longer route adds a Roosevelt grandson who has shaken hands with numerous U.S. presidents then the same route.
This alone should be disqualifying. Should be. Won't be. I'm all for sharing and mutual aid among allies. If QEII needed a coupla boxes? Sure. She was in a vulnerable population group and ya know, NOT A MURDEROUS DICTATOR.
It just really caught me off guard, it'll be a while til they remove the QEII notes from circulation.
Remember when Daniella thought that no one had done any advance succession planning for when QEII died because it was “treason”
I hope you have a great time on the QEII Sir Michael and that it will be like a home from home 😜😝
Why did the Royal Navy commission QEII as an aircraft carrier that only consumes resources, and not as a floating casino that would create revenue?
