What is the actual protocol and rules after a monarch passes away?
The cancellations of major events, TV Shows, stores like Selfridges etc seems so random, on different days. Does it not mean those who don't close or cancel are made to feel bad? It must be hard for businesses to know what is expected. Certainly the disruption to people and businesses is huge. Do struggling businesses have to suffer even more? Must they pay staff even if closed? Then there are all the tickets to sports events to be reimbursed or postponed - creating huge admin headaches.
I just wonder if such chaos is necessary. It is of course right to close everything on the funeral day. It would have been easier if a clear public period of mourning was announced. Leaving it to each business means confusion.

Debate sure is easy when ya never bother to show ya speak truth.

Halloween must be a trauma for folks so scared of empty biblical threats and delusions.

To be clear: Atheism is not a disbelief in gods or a denial of gods; it is a lack of belief in gods.

I must assume that knowing is better than not knowing, venturing than not venturing; and that magic and illusion, however rich, however alluring, ultimately weaken the human spirit.
