Queen is pure decency in contaminated world

THE Queen’s Platinum Jubilee 2022 is a short essay by Roger Carswell and can be viewed free of charge online. I fully accept every wise point, as so often made in recent times, about the possible longerterm desirability for the UK to become a republic, perhaps even in the not-too-distant future.

The need to retain any royal dynasty, sponsored in part by Civil List funding from the government and public, is a perpetual bone of contention. But at a time of so many world crises and instabilities it maybe takes a gritty Yorkshireman (like Roger Carswell) to draw our attention to the remarkable Queen the UK has had for the last 75 years. Her morals and manners have set a difficult benchmark for anyone else to ever follow.

Her Majesty the Queen has been the embodiment of decency in a world defiled by thugs: like Vladimir Putin.
