Queen Elizabeth: Her long-term perspective is welcome
In our daily partisan politics I often look to Great Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II for clarity on issues in general.
As a non-partisan head of state with decades of historical relevance, the queen has a way with words. The following is taken from her address to the nation last week regarding the coronavirus pandemic:
“At times such as these, I am reminded that our nation’s history has been forged by people and communities coming together to work as one, concentrating our combined efforts with a focus on the common goal.”
For leadership, sometimes we could use a non-partisan queen.
