Two weeks after the farewell to Prince Philip (last Saturday, April 17, the farewell in the chapel of Saint George in Windsor), here is the confirmation that once again the Duke of Edinburgh has “served” his queen to the end. The effect of popular, global sympathy aroused by the death of the prince has benefited all (or almost all) the exponents of the Windsor Royal Household. Starting with Charles, the heir to the throne, after the queen. And with some surprises: the leap of sympathy of Edoardo, the youngest son of Elizabeth, and of his wife Sophie, the counts of Wessex. For Edoardo there was an exploit of even 54% consensus. Not much inferior to that of his older brother, the Prince of Wales.
58% approve of Carlo
In fact, according to the latest YouGov survey in London, today almost 60% of the public (58%) has a positive opinion of Carlo, and those who declare they do not love him are only 33%. Certainly the queen remains unquestionably the most popular figure, indeed with a growing popularity after the death of her husband Philip, and after his message from the heart to thank the world for the affection shown to her.
And 85% loves the Queen
As many as 85% of the British population loves it. Who doesn’t love Her Majesty? Just 9%. And just 19% think they would do well to retire since a few days ago they crossed the 95-year mark and in short, reached “retirement age” for anyone. But not for a sovereign who took a crown oath in 1953 with which she pledged to carry out her work to the end.
Kate, William and Charlotte’s 6 years old
The “quotations” of Kate and William, in second position in the line of succession to the throne, are also on the rise. Polls on the occasion of their 10th wedding anniversary on April 29 say that 76% of Kate – a commoner who arrived at Buckingham Palace in 2011 – will be a good queen when it comes to her role to join her husband William on the throne. Speaking of William, after immediately spending against the Super League (he is president of the British Football Association), the son of Carlo and Diana has now sided in favor of the boycott of social media to turn the spotlight on the risks of racism and hate speach on the web. And so, the birthday of baby Charlotte, who blows out 6 candles on May 2nd, could pass without the usual sharing of souvenir photos.
I Sussex
Harry and Meghan? The farewell to Philip, the global tribute of affection for the Windsors wounded by the loss of the “head of the family” close to a century of life, has not been good for their liking in the United Kingdom: 49% of Britons distance themselves from the Duke of Sussex and 61% don’t love Meghan.
