As tributes to the monarch pour in from around the world, including from EU figures, anti-Brexit commentators wasted no time in politicising a time of national mourning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rejoiners have complained that they were not given enough time to mourn their departure from the EU following Brexit, as resentment of the Queen’s death grows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Daniela Nadj, a senior lecturer in law at St Mary’s University, said before the Queen’s death: “The monarchy is also what’s holding your country back and reinforcing the class system.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cA grown-up nation needs to have a debate about a republic.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I think allowing a couple of days for people to process isn’t too much to ask,” one user responded. Then yes, a debate is really needed.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nadj responded, “Were we Europeans given any time to mourn the Brexit referendum?” <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Moreover, Donncha \u00d3 Baoill wrote on Twitter: \u201cThe Queen will be afforded a full state funeral and a week of mourning. Which we will pay for, just like we will pay for Brexit.\u201d<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
