The Queen delivers her annual Christmas message. Nice to see her Christian faith especially emphasized this year. She also pays tribute to the Centenary of the end of World War I.

Merry Christmas first of all. I have to say, I don’t get the adulation this family gets in my parents homeland. They are parasites who contribute very little to British life and culture. The church they head up is full of liberals and homosexuals, and besides the church should be run my ministers of the gospel not heads of state. Prince Philip came from a Nazi supporting family. They probably had Diana killed. I’m really not a fan.
The Queen is the only thing left standing between Britain and it becoming a second Cuba.
I hate monarchy, but have huge respect for the Queen and her respect for tradition and Christian values
I don't have strong feelings,positive or negative,about monarchy.But I am inclined to agree with McCartney when he observed that "Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl but she doesn't have a lot to say".
Maybe some day I'll get a belly full of wine to tell her that I like her a lot.
Squabbling re monarchies and the royals’ usefulness aside, Elizabeth is remarkable woman.
Imho, the world is a better place for her being in it.
Absent her steadying iconic influence, one can easily imagine Britain being completely unhinged by now.
Prince Phillip actually fought the Nazis, unlike You, and his mother is buried in Israel as one of the righteous among nations for saving Jews by hiding them in her apartment in Greece during the Holocaust.
Thank you for pointing that out, although any message that includes the words “they probably had Diana killed” should be treated with an enormous eye-roll in any case.
The Queen is one of the few heads of state who talk sincerely and bluntly about their Christian faith. I find it refreshing. She is still the anchor of her people in the extremely choppy water of these times.
It was lovely to hear from her, talking common sense as usual.
She always mentions her Christian faith in every year’s Christmas message.
You’re accusing him of being a nazi sympathiser on the strength of him as a teenager attending his sister’s wedding to one of them? Pretty weak argument dude.
