I see 'The Sun ' newspaper has published a picture of the Queen making a nazi salute when she was aged 7/8 years old in 1933. She was only a child and would have had no idea what it meant then. Britain wasnt even at war,in fact I think this Country was friendly with Germany at the time ,no one new Hitler was the monster he turned out to be.
Children would march up the streets doing the salute and laughing at Hitler
Could have been the same for the Queen and her lot - they would have been aware of him, that's for sure
I cannot remember the number of times as a kid I would put my finger beneath my nose and throw a salute.
It was all piddle taking - I have never been pro Nazi.
Utterly discourteous. But hey; it's The Sun and let's be frank, it's a paper read by the brain dead and ridiculous, and furthermore; the Aussie Galah and Sun owner, Rupert Murdoch is a republican.
I went into Morrisons and there was every newspaper, except the Sun it had sold out since early this morning so I assume this story has achieved its aim by selling out.
