Very succinct Menarue.The Queen did, the people didn´t.
Sad but true Warren. I admire her for recognising she was in a no-win situation and making the right decision.Fleet Street/Wapping would have just as quickly turned their attention to the heartless and uncaring grandmother who had abandoned her distraught grandsons in the wilds of Scotland while she pandered to the crowds in London. Instead of "Why aren't you with your people?" screaming headlines, it would have been "Why aren't you with the boys?"
Once the media stirred the pot all the old angers and resentements seem to come to the fore all the while neglecting to cover the care and protection she gave her grandsons in their hour of need. Truth to tell, I think the whole affair became an evil juggernaut. No one could imagine the devastation it could or would cause.
