Facebook wins Royal seal of approval
The Queen has become the latest person to fall within Facebook’s all encompassing net following the official launch of The British Monarchy page.
Thus far over 45,000 loyal subjects have registered their approval of the initiative by “liking” the page though some postings have proven more contentious than others.
This saw Queen fan John Tippet write of his concern at the scrapping of HMS Ark Royal, proudly displayed as a backdrop to one of Liz’s snaps.
The social media platform is just the latest in a series of online initiatives by a Monarchy keen to maintain relevance in modern society and communicate directly with their subjects.
Already the Queen can be found on Twitter, through the @BritishMonarchy account and a Royal Channel has been set up on Youtube for fans of the family to keep tabs on their work.
