This Aussie is a Republican but has nothing but the utmost respect for the late and great HRH Elizabeth II (RIP). My dad was lucky enough to meet her and other royals. My stepfather fought for her rule, in The Australian Army. I'm not pro-colinisation in any way. But I have respect for a woman who took on a role and made her mark in history, working tirelessly even when her sweetheart passed away.

    She was a symbol of hope and stability. Growing up I always heard about the Queen of England, Elizabeth II and all the amazing things she's done and what she's witnessed throughout our crazy world. At the end of the day, as long as I knew she was still there, despite what was going on, we would be ok, now she is not, I didn't know her personally nor have I met her but it saddens me that she's no longer with us.

    Through all of that, Queen Elizabeth was a constant, dependable, steadfast presence. Even when it seemed like the world was going to heck, she was there, cool, calm and collected.

    II'm not British, I'm not even American, but her death devastated me. When I was a little girl, her smiling portrait hung on the wall in an English classroom at a small Russian school. Our teacher told us how great she is. And since then, Her Majesty has inspired me. Her life story gave me strength when I fell due to the loss of moral strength. Her sense of humor made me smile when I didn't feel like smiling. She was even one of the reasons why i learned English. Her death is great loss not only english speaking society, but to all people who was born all arond the world while her reign.

It's unbelievable that the Queen has done this job for seven decades until literally the day she died. With Prince William and Prince George in the line of succession it's unlikely many of us alive today will ever hear "God Save the Queen" sung again officially. It's going to take some getting used to. That being said, "God Save the King" and rest in peace Queen Elizabeth.

She even shared the first name with our own late Queen Mother (or grandmother of our late king Baudouin) Élisabeth, wife of our late king Albert I. She had the same devotion to her people, pushed even further since she performed her duties till her last bitof strength, always faithful to the vow she pledged when she was 21.

    I don’t really know how to describe how I feel, other than as if I’ve lost a parent - having lost both already that may sound a bit silly, but that’s how it feels. Sadly, I never met her, but she was always there in the background - a constant force for good who had our best interests at heart. Like my parents, she was from that generation often described as the ‘greatest’, born between the World Wars, who knew what duty, service and sacrifice meant, and stepped up to the plate when called upon. She was 7 months younger than my Mum, and about the same build & height. The Queen was married 2 years later than Mum, had children in the ‘50s and ‘60s like Mum, saw them marry (and in my case, divorce) like Mum, lost her husband late in life like Mum. All my life it was a case of the Queen ‘catching Mum up in April’ - a thought which still comes to mind each year on Mum’s birthday, years after her passing. Like a parent, the Queen has just always been there. Edward VIII’s abdication meant the hardest job in the world was coming to her, yet while still in her twenties, knowing what would one day come, she publicly devoted herself to a life of duty. Whether or not you’re a monarchist, it is impossible to dispute that the whole world is a better place for the life and work of HM Queen Elizabeth II, and a poorer one for her passing. We shall not see her like again. Rest in Peace, your Majesty, and ‘thank you, Ma’am’. Long live the King.

She had 70 years to openly repent for their actions, but never once did I hear I'm sorry, or please forgive us, not once. The torture, and Mutilation of people in the colonies can never be forgotten, or forgiven.She must be remembered in the light of her greedy, selfish actions and not some romanticized, redundant title.

I got so inspired but then I had some tacos at work and had to poop.

    Queen Elizabeth was a mechanic and driver during WWII. She served her country, not just as a soldier, but as a monarch.
    She didn't want to be Queen, but had no real say in the matter. If she didn't take the throne, it would have gone to her uncle, who was a sympathizer to Nazis. So in order to make sure the UK ended up on the right side of history, she dedicated her life to service.
    She was expected to essentially just be a figurehead and stay completely neutral in all things regarding politics. No matter what party took power, no matter what policies they chose to push, she was supposed to just sit there quietly and smile, otherwise there could be a political uprising. Because if the monarchy openly disagrees with the government, then that is a very quick war to civil war as the people would split between them.
    So she sat there, quietly, wearing clothing with the colors of a nation she was supporting, wearing a broach that was a symbol of a country or an ideology. She would make her opinions knows to family, who would then go out and speak to others and spread the word. For example, when the horrific Brexit decision was made, she was sitting there quietly wearing an outfit proudly symbolizing the EU (the colors and a broach representing the EU pinned over her heart).
    She did what she could to push for an end to slavery and racism, pushing for equality and respect, while the politicians tried to keep a death grip on the country and colonialism.
    Most Royal women (and politicians) are Fae Wray, Queen Elizabeth was Sigourney Weaver. She wasn't going to let anyone push her around. Sure, she'll do her duty to the country and the monarchy, but she will throw all the shade she could while doing it. Such as when she unfortunately had to meet with the orange traitor. She proudly wore the broach that Obama gave her every time she had to be in a room with him.
    When she was meeting with the king of Saudi Arabia, they all gathered into the Royal Land Rovers (much like how the US president has those presidential SUV's). The Saudi royal got into the car only to find the Queen behind the wheel. In Saudi Arabia, women were not allowed to drive. She drove him to the palace, pushing the car to the limits, breakneck speeds, tight turns... would have made Fast & Furious proud... and scared the Saudi leader to death. Hopped out of the car with a smile, while he needed help because he was shaking too much.
    As much criticism as the Royal Family rightfully gets... the Queen Mum was unique. She devoted herself to her duty and to the people, and to delivering change in whatever way she could. And was an inspiration to women the world over, showing them that they didn't have to be the tradition frail girls that men expected them to be. And for 70 long years she was a rock. A symbol of strength and stability in a world of endless change and uncertainty.

    I was 7 years old in New Zealand when she visited in the mid 80s. Got to see her speak to us kids in a stadium in Auckland. I still remember us losing our little minds when she declared a public holiday to commemorate the trip. She has been my queen my entire life. This is so very, very sad. RIP your majesty. 💔

    James, I’ve truly enjoyed your comedic spin in the late night universe. Your words tonight and the respectfulness when delivered were genuine and demonstrated there is much more to you than what most see on the surface. To me, this is your best work yet! Look forward to seeing what kind of projects you do in the future.

    This was well said and explains why her majesty was the very symbol of England to everyone in the world including us Americans. She was so deeply enmeshed with and identified with her country because she was the only monarch most of us ever knew of England due to her long reign. She was just always there and a constant presence in our lives. She wasn't just the Queen of England to most of us ...she was just "the Queen". With her dignified composure and devotion to her duty she exemplified to all of us exactly what a Queen should be. Her passing was taken very hard by so many around the world because it was a loss of a ingrained, familiar, trusted and respected public figure that most of us had grown up with as if she was like our own grandmothers . RIP your majesty , you will be greatly missed by many around the world.

    The minute I found out on the 8th that she had passed, I started to get upset and I cried. I didn't think I would get so upset with her passing. I knew it would happen some day soon. I like how someone put it when I was watching a live stream that afternoon. It was like member of your family had passed away. She was like a grandmother to us all. She served her country, her people, and the world with honour and dignity, and always with a kind and beautiful heart. She was truly one in a million, and she will forever be missed.

    A great speech James Corden, We all should be inspired by Queen Elizabeth II in her good works and become great people without any discrimination, violence & and so on in our world. We should do what is right and what is the best thing to do because Life is short if you won't do anything in this world.
