Three points about the Royal family;
One. Churchill: “At least let me send the Royal children to Canada, it is dangerous here.“
Queen Mother: “the children will not go unless I go,“
“And I won’t go unless George goes,“
“And George won’t go!“
Two. There hasn’t been a president who didn’t come away after meeting the Queen without thinking, “I am her favourite.“
Three. After 9/11 the queen broke with tradition and ordered her guards to play the American anthem in a show of respect for the dead, of defiance, and solidarity - “the flag was still there.” Belfast
