Twenty-eight per cent of Brits said it would be appropriate for the Queen to become involved if there was no progress in resolving Brexit, while 54% think the opposite, according to a new poll.
In her speech at an event to mark the 100 years of Sandringham Women’s Institute in Norfolk, Queen Elizabeth II made remarks that were largely perceived as references to the approach needed to resolve the Brexit talks stalemate.
“The continued emphasis on patience, friendship, a strong community focus, and considering the needs of others, are as important today as they were when the group was founded all those years ago. Of course, every generation faces fresh challenges and opportunities,” the Queen said.
“As we look for new answers in the modern age, I for one prefer the tried and tested recipes, like speaking well of each other and respecting different points of view; coming together to seek out the common ground; and never losing sight of the bigger picture,” the head of state added.
