The Queen endorses Black Lives Matter: roll on the red republic
According to a report in the Murdoch Times (10 Sept) based on information from a ‘Royal Insider’ the Queen supports Black Lives Matter.
This will certainly annoy Boris Johnson and Priti Patel who don’t.
The Queen has however not made a late conversion to Marxism (which by the way is not anyway specifically linked to BLM except by the right-wing media)
However the realities of sloganizing and fine words are underlined here.
Very few employees of the Royal Household are from ethnic minorities and the very limited target to employ more has not been met.
Black Lives Matter is about economic and social equality and the Queen as one of the wealthiest people in the country is not on that page whatever she may say
