CLAIM: Queen Elizabeth II wore red and congratulated Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. for winning the 2022 election
RATING: Satire
It’s not true that Queen Elizabeth II wore red and congratulated Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. for winning the 2022 presidential election — a quote card containing the purported message and a red-clad image of the British monarch is satirical.
In the satirical “quote” card, “Queen Elizabeth” also “commented” that oligarchs were out to sabotage Marcos’ name, and that citizens kept on complaining. She then added that the Philippines did not have the “worse (sic) governance,” but the “worst citizens.”
