With regards to Nicholas Winch's letter which recommends the
Queen retirement, with respect to him I think he misunderstands her motives in
persevering. I am convinced that the
Queen means to follow the tradition of the other allegedly "great"
Queen that was Queen Victoria and die in office. In so doing the mourning period will neatly
cover the transition period to the successor, which will most likely be the
more controversial Prince Charles. The
British public are well within their rights to see past this cynical PR manoeuvre
and consider democratic alternatives to an institution that is much more frail
than our aging monarch.
