The Australian Monarchist League has told its members to start preparing for the death of the Queen, warning it will feel “as though a safety net has disappeared”. The league wrote to members this week under the headline “how our lives will change”. Its national chair, Philip Benwell, wished the 90-year-old monarch a speedy recovery from her lingering cold and said thought must be given to what will occur when “Her Majesty does eventually pass”. “The Queen has been a part of the lives of all her subjects for over 60 years,” Benwell wrote. “Most were born during her reign. It will be as though a safety net has disappeared because we have always had a sort of assured faith that the Queen is there to protect us. www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2017/jan/05/australian-monarchists-urged-to-brace-for-the-death-of-the-queen

My Mum was Welsh, and a walking encyclopedia when it came to the Royal Family. We always had a picture of the Queen on the wall no matter where we lived.
Dad was Irish and used to laugh when he heard people saying stupid things about the Irish hating the English. He said if you walked into almost any Irish home the first thing you saw was a picture of the Queen.
I imagine there will be some of the old school who will miss her when she goes. I don't know much about them, but I bet like any royal family in the world there are plenty of skeletons in the closet.
