Newsreaders keep saying about they are pleased and surprised so many young people are turning up. Well that's for Instagram and Facebook likes. In fact not long after she died last night there were two girls outside Buckingham palace trying so hard to be seen by the cameras smiling laughing and waving. They couldn't give two hoots about what actually had happened. We live in a world now where people can't get their phone out of their hand people don't cherish moments but rather are too fussed to film it or a take a picture or tik tok in front of it or what not. We are slowly turning into robots. I'm saying this while I type on a phone on an online forum but still. They need to be a bit more respectful

I heard one of the minders say more than once to put the phone away and enjoy the moment
