I’m genuinely interested; is it a religion thing?

Thought this a lovely pic of her surprised to see her in trousers.
Does anyone know who these people are that are at the memorial service? Could anyone go?
Some of them look so uninterested and can’t even bother themselves to sing.

I've really felt boyed seeing our new Kings conduct. He seemed friendly outside Buck house and his address was heartfelt.
Ticketed apparently but anyone could apply.
Oh really? Thanks for replying! X
I think it’s quite disrespectful they’re not singing etc!
It would relate to how, when the Catholic fight for civil rights became violent, the government sent in the army to keep the peace at the end of the 1960s. With the head of state as official leader of the military, she is symbolic of what was seen by the native populace as repression.
yes I heard on the news there were 2000 available but you had to get them in person, on a first come first served basis from one of the tourist information centres nearby
News said earlier 2000 tickets were available on a first come basis from the tourist information.
Snap lol
I wasn't sure on the process but I suppose it makes sense people had to be there in person. It makes me think I'm glad this didn't happen during COVID restrictions.
I suppose they don't all know the hymns. I was raised Catholic and there were some there I didn't recognise.
I really think Charles will do all he can to make his mummy proud. Despite all his past faults (and his younger bro!) he seems to be a lovely man now.
It goes back a lot further than the 1960s! Which is why they sought independence from the British in 1921. The problems between the monarchy and Irish go back a few hundred years.
That said I am in NI, and haven’t met anyone yet who is anything but respectful about the Queen dying, even if they aren’t a royalist.
Same with Jamaicans. A few will be happy no doubt but I know my family are quite upset
I know. In particular, laws passed in the eighteenth century were like a kind of apartheid against Catholics. They've all been rescinded now, though, and most Ulster Protestants want to be part of the United Kingdom still.

Well I’m from Northern Ireland, actually from a predominantly Catholic/Nationalist part of NI and I can safely say that’s nonsense. I’ve not seen a single person celebrate her death. I’d like to see Irish Independence but that doesn’t mean I hate the Queen.The Kingmakes me feel sick he’s our King, tampon head, I just watched the video of her and Paddington bless her
I saw a tweet saying Northern Ireland were lighting fireworks, my oh family members from Belfast are coming to stay in a couple weeks I’ll be interested to see what they say about it
We need a new thread, any suggestions for a fitting title?
It’s a shared province don’t forget.
Even the republican first minister designate.
Just a simple thread suggestion echoing King Charles speech ,
#2 Queen Elizabeth 11. Thank You Ma’am RIP

The current one is perfect. I don't think it needs anything else added.
I am an Ulster Protestant
I don’t need it mansplained to me!A boy I teach did say today his area of Belfast had fireworks last night, sadly. He was appalled, so it is just the jackass minority as always.
