I've always gone by the motto that if the dead didn't want us to speak ill of them, they shouldn't have been bad people during their lives.

Totally fair and I don't entirely disagree but the whole don't speak I'll of the dead thing is very much ingrained in Irish culture.

Also, Liz 2 was presumably a reasonably decent person, and can't really be blamed for the actions of the British government.
