i'm thinking somebody reasonably smart noticed at some point that the Paddington movies played very well with cupcake fascists - nb this isn't strictly the movies's fault - and figured it was a good brand to associate the monarchy with
also something something 2012 Olympics i'm sure

wife's breast cancer appointment cancelled Monday, which means all breast cancer appointments are cancelled on Monday. She has a new one in a month. I'm sure she'll be fine, but that's a wait that will almost certainly cost lives. This is an obscenity, in the name of the monarchy— matt (@matted1) September 13, 2022

Wouldn't it be easier to drive the coffin around for a few days so everyone can see it? Take it to Barking and Edmonton or wherever too, let all her loyal subjects join in. In fact they could spend the next couple of months trundling it around the country as the cadaver decays and starts to seep out the cracks, while the Beeb continue their wall-to-wall coverage as a distraction from imminent mass starvation.
