Very sad. I consider myself an anti-royalist, but that doesn't make me against the actual humans who make up the royal family. So they're over-privileged, over-paid (and with my money too), serve no discernible purpose (room for a whole other thread there...), have said stupid and offensive things (particularly Prince Philip) and made stupid decisions, BUT that doesn't mean they don't deserve great sympathy over Margaret's death. No parent wishes to see their children die. And even though Margaret madde a choice in favour of her privileged life, that doesn't mean it was an easy or happy one. My thoughts go out to them, as to anyone who loses a loved one. Flora xx
