H.M. Must Disown This Offensive Outburst
Like most descendants of the Ulster-Scots diaspora…
…my kin have maintained allegiance to the British Crown through hundreds of turbulent years.
Yet yesterday, reading that –
…the Queen and the royal family are supporters of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement…
…it felt as if, what, not that the sky was falling…
.
.
…more like the foundations of all that made sense of our lives had been dynamited.
.
.
True, HM did not go on tv herself…
.
..
….and make such a vile and hurtful declaration, endorsing an evil that stalks many realms over which she reigns, desecrating the memory of British heroes….
…and day-dreaming of pogroms…
Black Lives Matter co-founder tweets about killing “men and white folks”
000000000
But we are due to see for ourselves, on Channel 4, perhaps predictably…
.
…one of Her Majesty’s representatives…
…issue the outrageous affront.
…..
Sir Ken Olisa, the first black Lord-Lieutenant for London revealed to Channel 4 that he had discussed the topic of racism with members of the royal household in the wake of George Floyd’s murder in the US.
Who the Hell is this Olisa, of whom most Brits have never heard?
A gilded life he’s led, Fitzwilliam College Cambridge, the City, vast wealth, honours galore.
And now he’s wielding a hefty hammer, striking what might be a fatal blow to the Crown.

It is shocking and I do share your sense of being let down.
Like you, everyone in my family has always been monarchist and I find it very hard to believe the Queen supports those dangerous marxists.
Nevertheless, monarchism is fraying at the edges.
The natural sympathy most of us felt for the Queen when ‘Harry’ went off the rails is now ebbing away and being replaced with ‘they’re all as bad as each other!’
