7:18 am
question and unwavering. she has also demonstrated courage, compassion, and humour, a strong memory. i will have her as her laughter. she was extraordinary. adrian brown with us now live from new zealand, capital, wellington, adrian. so we've heard from new zealand prime minister to send the ardor, and we know that support for the monarchy in new zealand has always been strong. how are the people there been reacting thus far? well, people here woke up to the news because this broke in the early hours of the morning in new zealand. the prime minister's inter are the and said that she was woken up by her security detail at about 4 50 am local time. and she said, when i saw that torchlight beam, i knew what it meant. she's inter, are the and then spoke to the media several hours later and issued that statement that you've just heard. she referred to the queen as the,
7:19 am
as the mother and the grandmother to the nation. of course, just in toronto is about the age of some of the queens grandchildren. and of course, as in the case of many other commonwealth countries, most people here have never known a time when the queen was not on the throne. she ruled new zealand. she was the monarch for 70 years. in fact, this country was one of the 1st she came to after being crowned queen, back in 1953, made 10 visits during 7 decade. so the, the ties between use zealand, the bombs between new zealand and the monarchy of very, very strong. it'll be difficult to find, you know, another country and the commonwealth with support for the monarchy is this strong. so it's a day of, of some and quiet reflection. there will be, as you pointed out, a state funeral in new zealand, but a per long period of morning has now begun. of course, the new zealand, but the queen came to 70 years ago is very different today. back then. new zealand
7:20 am
was, was very british today. 70 percent of the population are european and the rest are made up of mari pacifica. and also people who come here from, from asia. so the, the ethnic complexion of this country is very different today that it was when the queen 1st came to this country. and adrian, you know, we've been talking about the tributes that have been offered by world leaders. and just as passed, our, you and i were discussing the what was going on in china with regard to react to the death of queen elizabeth. you were based in china and hong kong for many years . and last hour we were talking about the fact that even though her death had been marked in state media, there had yet to be any statement from government leaders or from president sheesh and ping were just saying now it's been reported that china's president she, asian thing has sent condolences over the death of queen elizabeth the 2nd as, according to state media white you think it took so long for this official reaction to come out? well, i think it often times like this the,
7:21 am
that the communist party becomes paralyzed. they have to work out at the top, what the line is going to be. and this is complicated because, you know, queen elizabeth was, was the sovereign head of a country that has fallen out badly with china over the past few years over hong kong and also the situation and sion janet while i think, you know, the queen is deeply respected in china, the government does not get on very well good with the government of the united kingdom at that moment and as it resigned, the relations are going to get even worse. now her, her death is being reported quite widely in the chinese media at the moment as well as i'm social media at the tone of some of the common trees as well. the queen was in many ways a symbol of an era that is now over that the golden era for britain is over now in more ways than one. it'll be interesting to see, of course, whether the chinese president attends the funeral of queen elizabeth other world
7:22 am
leaders will be going, but will president changing ping? indeed, we can fairly assume the felony putin will be going. and i think there has to be a serious question mark over with a president. she ging ping whatever attend. all right, that's adrian brown. live for us from wellington. thanks so much, adrian. for breaking it all down for us. ah, now to other world news, the european union's energy ministers, meat and brussels on friday to discuss measures to stop surgeon gas and electricity prices. as the block seeks ways to shield businesses and consumers, european governments are increasingly concerned that rising prices could lead to social unrest and political instability. natasha butler reports in the parish suburb of said, ha, fozzy is packing for decade. he ran a charity may need the young people in the area, but he had to shut it because of government funding cuts. he says the closure is
