 Silver Jubilee of Elizabeth II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Silver Jubilee of Elizabeth II marked the twenty-fifth anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's accession to the throne of the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and other Commonwealth realms.
Immediately after the Jubilee addresses of 4 May, the Queen left Buckingham Palace on a goodwill trip across the country; she wanted to take this time to meet as many of her loyal subjects as time permitted before she needed to come back to London for festivities.
The most infamous event marking the Jubilee was the Sex Pistols' release of the vehement anti-monarchy song "God Save the Queen." The song was seen as an attack on both the royal family (which the Sex Pistols called a "fascist regime") and the United Kingdom as a nation.
