"Are you okay, Ma'am?" - Queen Elizabeth's Emotional Exchange with Member of the Public (2002) 

our King has that dedication to duty, Anne does, our Queen Mother etc and William has dedicated his life to duty and service

Along with Princess Diana dedication and remarkable service

​@@lsmith9249 correct forgetting Princess Diana no one eclipsed

@@lsmith9249we don’t have a Queen Mother

Whenever the Queen is mentioned now I still think of THE Queen. I can’t get to grips with calling Camilla Queen

Lol. Are you for real. She peed and craped like everyone else 🙄

That’s why people liked talking to the Queen. She never looked over your shoulder in case someone more important was there because nobody in the room was more important than her.

@Diggles67 she was no better or no worse than anyone else. THE only reason that she was "royal " was that her ancestors murdered raped plundered robbed to get the throne and power. Sometimes killing close family members, brothers sisters nephews nieces . So nothing special there

I noticed that right away.

@@mermaidgirl9232 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆.. another one bites the dust. Falls for the sycophantic royalist bs and garbage. More spin

@@ArronHawkenMine is different so you’re wrong

@@liamb8644 and mine, I’m ‘bedridden’ though I hate that phrase, I’m on my own a lot so often leave the news on the tv just for background noise, whenever ‘The Queen’ is mentioned I automatically look up, only to be disappointed yet again. I have a full size cardboard cut out of Queen Elizabeth next to the tv though so not all bad!

RUBBISH

Why are people ridiculous fawning over another human being who takes the piss on state benefits.

@@Mancunianblue Because she dedicated her life to the work of the nation. You and your multiple children get state benefits for sweet nothing.

Yes, I do too... I know how you feel.

It felt like all was right in the world. She was sanity and a point of reference. It all does not feel right in the world after her passing. The two rainbows. Balmoral and Buckingham Palace. Rain stopped clouds parted and those two rainbows. A bow to her Royal Highness Our Majesty the Queen. She was such a blessing. She can rest and she did reign til her last dying breath. As she said. She is watching. I can't wait to go home too. ❤

Get a tear in my eyes . Can’t help it .

My feelings too 😢

I STILL FEEL AN EMPTY PLACE IN MY HEART KNOWING QUEEN ELIZABETH II HAS PASSED ON TO HEAVEN! SHE WASN'T FEELING WELL AND I WOULD NOT WANT HER TO STAY HERE ON EARTH IN PAIN! I AM A CITIZEN OF THE USA BUT I'VE KNOWN THE QUEEN ALL MY LIFE AND SHE WAS ALWAYS FULL OF GRACE AND HONOR! IN MY MIND SHE WOULD NEVER LEAVE US. BUT. IN HER LAST YEARS SHE WAS HARASSED AND TRICKED BY PRINCE HARRY AND MEGHAN! TO THINK HER VERY OWN GRANDSON WOULD STOOP SO LOW TO HARASSING HIS BELOVED GRANDMOTHER AND GRANDFATHER! HARRY MUST BE SICK LIKE MEGHAN!

Yes i love your comment and agree. Her Majesty was real I mean as real as you can get. Her passion to serve and show compassion when needed and really go out there and get a sense of what it's like to live In the British public. Seeing things at the salvation army made her see and understand that a community doesnt give up it gets thru the struggle together.She was one of a kind but a true gem for the monarchy when it comes to standards and respect.

@@thegreengrimoiretarot4104 Compassion, you forget Diana.

When?! Most of us have been missing her since the second her death was announced!

you will. don;t you yet then?

He may not even have cared that much beyond being human. These ppl were homeless and had their own pressing problems.

​@@misst.e.a.187I am sorry but people genuinely loved her. You cannot possibly speak for him. He had compassion in his voice.

Hi I agree with you he was sincere being homeless had nothing to do with it he clearly is a very good person ❤​@@christinewhitfeld7939

@@misst.e.a.187 What an extraordinary thing to say, that homeless people do not care about others.

@@ABC_DEF I think that misst.e.a.187 is saying that the fact that she was Queen was not his focus, but that she was a woman in mourning and he had empathy for her as a person, not particularly excitement that he was in the presence of the Queen. That is what I'm getting anyway.

"Uneasy lies a head that wears a crown."

⁠@@szabados1980 that’s Shakespeare, Henry the 4th if I remember correctly.

Imagine some of the toxic, crooked vermin we would have had leading us if the head of state was an elected position. However much she cost, she saved us a fortune!! Thank you, Ma'am! Rest you well! ❤

Not just that - protocol instructs anyone who meets the monarch not to ask a question!

thats her job..the man was genuine....

She had lost both her mother and her sister the same year or so. 😢 And the man expresses so much compassion and kindness towards her, it’s very moving.

​@@carocatho within a couple of months

@@carocatho At that point, her mother had gone yet. Margaret went first

@@misst.e.a.187 yes, you are right; I saw the date of this footage later. 😉 But I’m guessing she knew her mum might not recover from this grief and would soon follow her sister to the grave. 🙁

She did I dont imagine too many people asked if she was okay they just assumed she was.

Me too. NZ 50's child. I managed to see her 3 times here.😊 seeing her smile on videos is still heartwarming.

Several views where her hat brim hides her eyes but you can still see her wonderful smile,❤

And the sparkle in her eyes totally infectious R.I.P. Ma’am GBNF 💔🌹

I think you may mean ‘can wear?!’

The Queen RIP had no power at all politically or nationally. I guess you may be confusing power with influence.

Rather poignant what you just said...

Give Meghan a chance. She has poise and she has grace.

​@@BillBiggs1😂😂😂😂😂 Right you are, then....

Amen to that ❤

same. I'm from atlanta

God blessed the world with the Queen.

Yes, Her Majesty sure was.

💜

What ‘blimp’ would that be?

​@@j.ksmith7432HRH Princess Diana.

Being Native American, I know na-da about British monarchy myself. I just watch with curiosity. Is she like our President of the United States here? 🤷🤔

@@spookygirl7761google is your friend

Actually it's Elizabeth Saxe-Coburg andGotha. Her grandfather dropped the real family surname and copped the name from Windsor Castle.

@@piustwelfthElizabeth was never called Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, they dropped that name before she was even born, she has always been Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Windsor, after her Marriage she added Mountbatten to her Windsor instead of Changing it completely to Mountbatten. Anyway I don’t think that had anything to do with the original posters comment tho.

@@lolalouise9503 The surname of QEII's father was Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. Yes, the last name had been changed a few years before she was born, but nevertheless, it was the family name until it was dropped for political reasons in favor of the more English sounding Windsor. Even Mountbatten was changed from the German Battenberg so both her surnames were invented.

Her sister Margaret was a reckless, self-centred hedonist. I liked HM Queen Elizabeth ll and sincerely hope for her sake she has been reunited in death with those who treated her rather better than her wayward sister did!

...and her: husband, father, mother, grandmother, pets...💐

@@mchow2984 ... yes, everyone.

Me also

Me too. ❤

She was beautiful

Me too. Always will. God rest her soul.

SHE REPRESENTED AN OLD CULT - LIKE INSTITUTION WITH A VERY EVIL HISTORY. A Cult of Personality arises when an individual uses mass media, propaganda, or other methods to create an idealized, and at times, a 'god-like' and a 'goddess-like' public image, through Unquestioning Flattery and Praise. ( Deceased Elizabeth II, Charles, William, Anne, Camilla, Kate and the remaining representatives ) The old English monarchy is a CULT - LIKE institution with a very bad history. What is a CULT-? The group displays excessively zealous and unquestioning commitment to its leader. Questioning, doubt, and dissent are discouraged. The leadership dictates, sometimes in great detail, how members should think, act and feel. The group is elitist, claiming a special, exalted status for itself, its leader and members. The group has a polarized us-versus-them mentality, which may cause conflict with the wider society. The leader is extremely protected and does not give interviews. The leader is not held accountable to any authority. Unquestioning adulation is expected from the followers. Characteristics of a CULT. The Leadership Dictates, Sometimes In Great Detail, How Members Should Think, Talk, Act and Feel. Examples:- When Elizabeth was alive the following rules had to be obeyed. When she enters the room, everyone must stand. When the queen stands, you must stand. By age five, children are expected to bow or curtsy to the monarch. Bow or curtsy as she approaches. Only shake her hand if she shakes your hand first. Do not wear sunglasses outdoors if you are near her. Never address her by her first name. Only address her as your so-called majesty. Never initiate a conversation with her. She always takes the lead. She always walks ahead of everyone else. Her 'husband' always had to walk two paces behind her. Never walk in front of her. You wait for her, she never waits for you. Never turn your back on her. Never leave an event before her. Selfies are forbidden. Never start eating before her. The wearing of fur is not allowed. Never continue eating after she has finished. Keep the conversation 'light'. No personal questions about herself. Females must never sit with their legs crossed at the knee. When the royal family is part of a procession, they must enter and be seated in the order of precedence, which is essentially the order of who’s next in line to the so-called throne. The so-called royals aren’t allowed to give out autographs. Mrs Windsor was required to use her purse to send subtle social signals. When she placed her purse on the table at dinner, it meant it was time to wrap things up-so consider the bite you lifted must be your last. She was required to spend her time speaking to the person on her right for the first course, and then engage in conversation with the guest on her left for the second. The so-called English royals are not allowed to give autographs. Parliamentarians are not allowed to discuss the monarchy. The old English monarchy has a bad history and the following words would apply to it. Anachronistic, Racist, Incest, Adultery, Immorality, Tyranny, Brutality, Genocide, Slavery, Theft, Dysfunctional, Aloof, Extremely Secretive, Irrelevant, Suffocating Formality, Abnormal and a Prison - Like Lifestyle. Edward's and Simpson's allegiance to Hitler. Andrew / Epstein and Charles / Jimmy Savile. Diana's arranged / forced marriage to Charles and his horrible treatment of her. Philip and his affairs. Anne divorced. Randy divorced . Charles divorced. Camilla divorced. There is not much family stability with these people and they are a poor representation of a cohesive family. The obsessed monarchy cult followers say that the monarchy provides stability but they dont explain how it does that with regards to this family. Henry VIII divorced two of his wives and the other one was BEHEADED-! Charles II executed-! Hanged, Drawn and Quartered. The "drawing" part actually comes first and it involves the convict being tied to a type of sled that's "drawn" or dragged behind a horse all the way from the prison to the gallows. Then he was hung by a rope tied from the gallows and around his neck. After a few terrifying minutes of near-asphyxiation, the rope was cut and the man fell down. Then his penis and testicles were cut off, his bowels were pulled out, his heart was cut out and all were burned before him in a fire. Next, his abdomen was slit open from groin to sternum. His head was severed from his body and his body cut into four quarters to be disposed of at the king's pleasure. The body parts were then taken on a publicity tour and distributed to the surrounding towns as a warning to those who would challenge the authority of the king. One of the main reasons for doing all of this was to demonstrate the absolute power of the monarchy. Burning at the Stake was another awful way to be killed. Britain has a monarchical kind of government and it had five Prime Ministers in a short period of six years. Northern Ireland was without a functioning government for a period of two years. The monarchy representatives and THE OBSESSED FOLLOWERS claim that the monarchy provides stability for a government but they do not explain how it achieves the so-called stability. The so-called monarchy cult representatives, ( Charles etc ) are supposed to be apolitical and have no power and most certainly do not keep politicians in check. That is done by the voters. So in reality, the citizens have more power than the monarchy cult representatives. If you think otherwise, then when was the last time royal assent was denied-? The founding fathers of our beautiful country of America REJECTED the old cult-like English monarchy with its very evil history and ALL of us Americans need to REJECT IT AS WELL. PLEASE DO NOT FOLLOW THIS OLD CULT.

Yes, I agree 100%, but let's not forget Olof Palme, Nelson Mandela, Francois Mitterrand and Fidel Castro.

she didnt teach anyone..please.why are you picking on meghan..Lady Diana will always remembered for who she is the queen did not teach her..she taught the queen and many others......

She was not bear hugged in Houston. That was in North or South Carolina or Virginia as I recall.

you are correct the 'Big Hug" or "potato saladgate' was in fact in Washington DC, not Houston. @@jw77019

You are correct, 'potatosaladgate' was in Washington DC, a day or two ahead of her first and only visit to the great Lone Star State, I unintentionally blurred the events and dates of that state visit in 1991. @@jw77019

An interesting comment - eloquently written. Thank you.

Yes, it was.

Nobody cancels the Queen.

This was a 'normal' time when people didn't get offended about anything and everything as opposed to todays cheap attention seeking brainwashed morons.

I’d have loved to see someone try, they wouldn’t have got far and hopefully nobody would’ve tried to sack her as they did Lady Susan Hussey.

Lol

I appreciate what you’re saying but, since Her Majesty was the Sovereign and Head of State of Jamaica, she was his Queen as much as anyone else’s. He would have been aware of that and was probably chuffed that she stopped to speak to him and was interested in his response. As Head of the Commonwealth, H.M. visited Jamaica frequently and, no doubt, had fond memories of her visits and the people she met.

She will be busy there as a retired Queen , it's fortunate to know that she is with her daughters and the Queen Mother and staff of Royal Lodge .

‘is?!’

Are you not missing her already?

Yes! x

I think you’ve been ‘autocorrected’ it’s The Salvation Army! 😜

The Queen is deceased, we have a Queen Consort and no amount of people calling her The Queen makes a jot of difference imo

The Rhodesian people too

So I was booked for driving to fast. When I received that letter I called the station which sued me. long story short: I didn't pay a dime. And my mum is still around.
