I know bloody disusting. I am absalutely livid !!!

Those who enjoyed Macron getting slapped are getting upset over a photo... Strange.

Sorry but this is a fking disgrace 😤🤬😡 our queen is our past, present & our future

Disgusting thing to do

Seems an important thing to do if you have nothing else to do .. good stuff

Ahhh F... the students of UniofOxford . This is history! And this students idiots are so poor mind

I suggest they remember where they are, that is an absolute outrage.

Your shitting me rich woke arsehole who will take this bollocks into the work place

this place needs looking at now what with banning meat this rubbish what next terrorism😳😤

Or are they just prejudiced against all queens, male or female?

Oxford and Cambridge have always bred commies remember Philby, Burgess, Blunt etc time to shut them down and the Woke Eton lot give em jobs digging & cleaning up our boys in Afghanistans toilets I say!

4th generation born and reared in a built from scratch colony that dwarfs London and New York...no complaints here...the alternative was to spend a lifetime sewing Nike in a sweatshop or assembling Apple products round the clock until I jump off the roof from depression...

Nothing wrong with our colonial history, most of the old colonies became corrupt empires run by warlords after colonial withdrawal. It’s something to be proud not apologetic. Students today are just a bunch of woke thickos

This is what happens when you tolerate other minorities they start tearing the British way and start putting their own culture forward

And the part played by Oxbridge in Empire.

Good

There seem to be a lot of people loosing their shit over a change in decoration in a students common room. I'm pretty sure most of them don't have pictures of the queen on their own wall.

Coming soon 🔜 defund the police 👮‍♀️ 🤔🤔🤔ffs if the students don’t want to look at the photo then don’t simple 🤪🤪🤪

Hopefully this is a Republican push that abolished the crown.

~ A group of students don't want a picture in their coffee room. Does this warrant headline news? A 95-year-old woman has just lost her husband. Kick her while she's down, why don't you. Whatever happened to compassion? Pathetic.

Not a brain cell between them!!!!!!!!!!!

Idiots

What is wrong with people? They have just come out of nappies and dictating what goes on with history . That will never change.

what next ban Adam And Eve as heterosexual story perhaps Adam wanted Eve to be A man or even transsexual better still keep it fluid Pansexual

I am anti-royalist who hopes it ends at the queen and even i think this is stupid

Twts

Harry and Queen discussed naming child after her before he met MeghanInsiders say Prince Harry has close relationship with his grandmother the Queen and that the Duke of Sussex told the monarch of his plans to honour her when he named his child years ago. HARRY HARRY HARRY.🤣🤣😂😂😅😅🤣🤣🤣🧐 According to Meghan and her friends the royal family is 'racist and archial' yet she names her child after white royals. Why not name her daughter after her own mother Doria since she loves preaching about the struggles and power of black women nowadays. PR clean up in aisle 1 😂
