I've watched and read some incredible tributes, but Boris said it best with 'She seemed so timeless and so wonderful that I am afraid we had come to believe, like children, that she would just go on and on.' That really hit home

Excellent speech by Boris. Outstanding. We really have seen our House of Commons at its best today. I'm more emotional than I expected to be but very proud of what I have seen and heard and experienced.

@stephenwhyte2849 Год назад

Definitely agree. It's my third time watching the speech from 🇨🇦. It's is the best and finest tribute to HM Queen Elizabeth II from a former British Prime Minister.

Ohh, that was beautiful, Boris. I smiled, I laughed, I nodded and I cried because it is like our beloved Nan has died, who used the one bar fire and old Tupperware, wandered around in sensible shoes and tartan skirt and loved us all.

@mlguy8376 Год назад

Boris has always been a romantic and classist in his thinking of how life and politics plays out - I would not be surprised that he could write a speech like this at a drop of a hat. Despite his appearance and his ways as a prime minister and Brexit - he was an Oxford graduate.
