No. I don't think you understand the meaning of xenophobic
. Or what the Queen stands for
.
The Queen stands for Monarchy, so I guess you could accuse me of Tyrannophobia, which is "a fear of monarchy". I mean, I'm not afraid of them, but it's closer to the mark than xenophobia, which would have absolutely nothing at all to do with the Queen or monarchy. Of course even if the queen DID stand for Britain, a dislike of the Queen and Royalty - even a dislike of Britain itself - would have no relation to Xenophobia. Which - just to clarify for you Alf, as you appear to be struggling -
specifically means
"dislike of or prejudice against people from other countries".
