Elizabeth II and informal signals of disapproval

Two anecdotes illustrate Elizabeth II expressing disapproval through the way she treated visitors. An unnamed prime minister is said to have stood through an audience in the garden, without refreshments, after making a dismissive remark about women doing the same jobs as men. In the second story, she personally drove a visiting Saudi king at high speed around her estate after his remarks about women drivers. He reportedly asked his translator to persuade her to slow down. The stories present personal conduct as a way to communicate royal displeasure; the exchange does not identify either visitor by name.
