Prime Minister Now Live


Outside Downing Street

She probably wouldn't have wanted a fuss so in terms of that it was a kind way to go if true

Yes true

A lot of elderly people will be very hit by this in particular, been their monarch for so many decades and through so many difficult periods

My Granny adores the Queen. In her 90s now and gets depressed and frustrated some times at her ageing and ailments but always found it so inspiring that the Queen carried on her duties when she herself was at that age and even after she lost Philip as well

Celtic "fans" already tweeting their delight

pigs

RIP. :(

PM Truss just stated
we must Support King Charles


Her last words
God Save the King.

to be expected

Yes Liz has just made a statement

King Charles III

she said

He might take a different name of course

They will not let him.

it's his choice, he is the King

I would have thought it would have been triple checked before she made such a comment

King Charles the 3rd…

She actually said King Charles III? That was a big mistake if so

Charles statement as King conspicuously doesn't carry a name

It has now been confirmed he will take the title of King Charles III

well said Piers

Yes Confirmed New Name


King Charles III

Fair enough, good for him

He's in interesting company

Thanks for the lovely photos Arista.

I'm in bits.

Very true
It's such a bizarre sad moment in history, Charles has mighty big shoes to fill . Even though we knew this day would come, it's so weird now hearing 'King Charles ' .And I'm still wrapping my head around Camilla being called 'Queen Consort' .

And everything will change now , the national anthem alone 'God save the king' . The Queen is going to leave a big hole, she was always around,head of state . Alot of people will definitely miss her .

RIP X
