She acquiesces to Boris Johnson, she has made some grave missteps lately, not that Charles hasn't, but politically is much better

This Russian inspired Brexit fiasco and possible tampering with the voters intent is destabilizing enough.

They should focus their attention on sorting out and investigating that mess and nailing the Fascists of the British government who played a role in cheerleading this treasonous scheme.

Then investigate the dismantling of NATO to the benefit of Putin's Russian Mafia Oligarchy.

Russia trying to discredit Oxford vaccine
Russia is waging a disinformation attack on Oxford University and Astrazeneca's coronavirus vaccine, according to an investigation by British newspaper The Times. Russia's flagship Vesti News programme called it a "monkey vaccine". "Russia and middlemen are now seeking to 'seed' ... pictures, memes, and video clips" on social media, saying the vaccine turns people into monkeys because it uses a Chimpanzee virus. Russia has a competing vaccine called Sputnik V.

5. I really do think she should step down

And give her 71-year-old son some time on the throne. Her mother lived to 101 so he may be in his 80s by the time he becomes King.
I read somewhere she may step down when Prince Philip dies.

She knew from the time she realized she was first in line to the throne that she had a lifetime commitment to the people of the United Kingdom.
