Yep ABC continues to be a national embarrassment

Perhaps ABC News are pro-republic. Maybe their non-stop coverage is a plot to get people so fed up with anything royal that more people become anti-monarchists. If so, it's working.

Is the going to cover all aspects of her reign not just the happy side?

Mourners pay respect as Shireen Abu Aqla's funeral procession begins ...

Why does Q say it's all a movie? Are actors pretending to suffer and die?

I feeel like a goose just been force feed nonsense.

They better not forget to pay respects to all the people killed, tortured and enslaved in the name of the crown over centuries. Or maybe that little detail gets forgotten in the artificial glorification of an outdated monarchy.

Should keep her on ice and bring to Canberra to do some sick skids at Summernats next year.

Enough move on.

She’s in a modern HEARSE?! Not a horse-drawn one, after a 70 year reign! WRF!
