At one stage Ranald McDonald who I believe (?) is a distant cousin of QE 2 (or his wife is) asked the Queen to be our No. 1 member - the Queen declined.If you're asking this about the Queen, it would almost certainly have been Collingwood. She was always the most passionate devotee of GB's naval history and the suburb was named after Admiral Collingwood, who was the actual leader at the Battle of Trafalgar, after Nelson had previously passed away. The only possible alternative would have been to barrack for the Dees, as Lord Melbourne loved horses, but he really wasn't a particularly illustrious fellow otherwise.
GO PIES and RIP QE2.
