I grew up in England, and we never sung the national anthem in school. It's not so.ething that is done in England, except on special occasions maybe like the upcoming Platinum Jubilee. Having said that, I never heard of any controversy around it.

Thinking about it, if you weren't going to say 'G-d save the Queen' you would only have about half of it left to sing.

She loves her corgis and her horses. She was often seen riding horses with a head scarf on. That's her in her element. She onky refers to herself as 'one', never 'I'. Re. National anthem, I went to frum schools and I've never sung it my whole life, wouldn't even know the words. She has always been the most dignified and gracious person.

She prefers natural shades of nail polish (she uses Ballet Slippers by Essie) and disapproves of wedge heels. She moves her handbag from one arm to the other to signal to her aides when she wants to end a conversation, and uses it for various other signals to her staff.

She pretty much wears the same outfit all the time but in a zillion diff colors.

She was an auto mechanic in the British army during WWII.

singing G-d save the queen is not controversial at all in Jewish places, it's just not really sung much except at special occasions.
You are literally saying that G-d should save the queen and we all believe that the leaders of our country should be safe and Hashem should protect them so there is no halachic issue with saying that.

I went to a non Jewish high school, and I can't remember us ever singing the anthem.
I think that I probably only heard it while watching Last Night of the Proms, or at the Cenotaph parade.
