It's pretty demoralising reading so many disrespectful tweets

This country has become infested with a generation who hate their own country

I don't have any strong feelings about the event so posting nothing. You can have little respect for the institution of the monarchy though, and still love your country - which is my own position.

Being born here doesn't mean you have to like it. I'm as British as anyone but looking forward to leaving asap. It's a very Trumpy thing to confuse dissatisfaction with hate.

Heard them say a few hours ago there will be 8 days of national moaning so funeral will almost certainly be on 17th

I thought a day of morning was a public holiday but obviously we're not (or I should say people who work are not) getting 8 days off. What exactly is a day of morning?

There's been many people who have annoyed me over the years, but I would never celebrate their death

The tweets I'm seeing have nothing to do with dissatisfaction, and everything to do with hate
