    A great lady, a great monarch and probably the equal of the first Elizabeth, though not so sorely tried. Sans peur et sans reproche.

    I wonder if she was pushed out early as George V apparently was.

    This time not so as to make the morning papers on time, but for other reasons.

    Doing in the Commonwealth, like the United Kingdomicon itself, is certainly part of the larger program, so trial balloons can be expected to start rising soon enough.

    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Much changes, much remains the same.
