It may be a result of not being used to kingship, but it’s undeniable that there is a new Carolean aesthetic.
True to tradition, and yet breathes a sense of renewal into the institution, and as may not be unexpected from those who familiar with HM, it’s characterised by beauty.

Our local council district will be gaining its first royal statue, that of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Many towns across the United Kingdom have similar statues in the process of being prepared for unveiling.
This could be the first of its kind in Northern Ireland.
A bid to erect a statue of Queen Elizabeth II has been approved by Armagh, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council.

The Protocol an instrument which separates N. Ireland from the rest of the Kingdom, and long term looks to shift our alignment from GB to the RoI.
It’s plain to see why Sinn Fein cheerlead it, likewise SDLP. What *should* raise eyebrows is how passionately Alliance pursue it.

I’m a fan of uniformity so I *should* probably swap my portrait for this one.
However Coronation weekend was so special I think I’ll keep this one up.
A new portrait of The King, wearing his Admiral of the Fleet uniform, will be made available to display in all public buildings in the UK.
Schools, councils and courts can apply for a free portrait, which was taken in Windsor Castle last year by photographer Hugo Burnand.

The “New Ireland” guff is a non-starter, because it is built on the mistake that all Unionists are just undecideds yet to be convinced.
Unionism isn’t a vague notion of British identity to be accommodated in a new state by a cocktail of pandering and concession... [1/2]

When dividing up your blame, consider reflecting how the genuine significant concerns around the Protocol, raised by ordinary Unionists and Unionist leaders for 3 years now, have been met with little more than “sit down, shut up”.
This is how we’ve arrived at this destination.

So Nationalists or Republicans can enjoy the support of those they consider their countrymen in the Republic, but Unionists in Northern Ireland shouldn’t enjoy the support of Unionists in the rest of the country.
Why are Unionists & right wing British commentators getting so upset about Labour saying they won't actively campaign in a border poll? That has always been their position because they understand that it's up to us, the people of Ireland - North and South, to decide our future.
