There are people that despise the monarchy but still respected and loved the queen. She sounds like an amazing person. She was the product of an earlier time, and had both the respect, and respected her subjects. In many ways she was in a cage, a gilded one, but a cage none the less. Her single look or movement could have an effect on the nation, and the commonwealth. She had power but also did not abuse it (at least that we know) and was, unfortunately, surrounded by some people that could have done a better job in private, and appeared tone deaf at times.
I think, given her position, her power, she knew her limits and acted within a narrow lane. I wonder how many people in politics now could/would be as restrained. It will be interesting to see if King Charles can be as decent and restrained. Stay tuned...
