hello, i'm adrian finnegan. this is that he is. i live from doha, coming up in the next 60 minutes, the end of an era. britain's paid tribute to queen elizabeth the 2nd who's died at the age of $96.00. leaders from around the world mourn the passing of the longest serving british monarchs in history. the crime passes to king charles the 3rd. he says the death of his beloved mother is a moment of great sadness for him and his family. and will look at the lasting legacy of queen elizabeth's visit to ireland. the impact of passing might have on mildred island staying within the u. k. ah ah, for the 1st time in 70 years, the united kingdom was woken up as a nation under a king instead of a queen. this is the scene at buckingham palace where the flag is flying at half

mast to mark the death of queen elizabeth. the 2nd crowds of mourners are approaching the palace gates to leave flowers and notes on the 1st day of national morning. hundreds of kilometers north. this is the scene at balmoral castle in scotland, where the monarch passed away. people who live in the area of the queen's neighbors have been leaving their own tributes at the gates. let's go live out of buckingham palace and central london. i was here with john hall, is that journal. the u. k. then has woken up to a king. not a queen today. what's the mood like that? and i can tell you this quite a lot of really quite wrong emotion down there in the crowd crowd, which is building fast. now a lot of people gathered outside but empower, says there are course outside of the royal places, people coming to pay their respects to a queen who sat for 70 years on the throne, the longest serving monarch ever another vehicle. simply trying to process the size

of the loss of queen elizabeth the 2nd to the national life of this country. what she represented the whole that she leaves behind too many. she represented the past that was perceived as great the past of empire colonies. and then of course, the commonwealth as well as the vestiges of that greatness potentially pass with her to others. she was a symbol of great unity of stability in troubled times. and these are troubled times here. this is a country divided, trying to figure out who what it is, what it wants to be and what it wants to be, how it wants to be seen in the world. old alignments broken, the very union itself in danger of fracturing. and then and so for some that symbol of unity passes and 2 other still, she simply symbolized service duties. that seems to come from another era. call it if you wish. the 2nd elizabethan era that passes down in the crowd have been speaking to people. there are many canadians, a canadian couple,

she was their heads of state, of course, one of the 14 commonwealth nations, which the queen is head of state all. and they said they couldn't remember a time when she wasn't around at school, they sang, god save the queen before they sang their own national anthem they gathered at christmas time as people do here to listen to the queen's christmas message, a scott, a big broad, bernie scott, with tears streaming down his face, looking solemnly at buckingham palace and attributes on the fence, said look, this is a monumental moment for this country. they will never, never, never again be a woman like her. and a young mom with her 6 month old infant strapped to her chest, said she wanted to bring her son here, even though he won't remember it simply so they could talk about it later. she broke down in tears talking about the queens and wavering, unfaltering, uncomplaining, years of service. my colleague needs voc now takes us through events so far arrange soul years of traumatic change. the social, cultural,

and technological revolution that altered the very landscape of the nation. but the queen retained the same values, the same habits, an unchanging presence in a country, living through times of turmoil and conflict. she was just 25 when she came to the throne. exactly the same age as the 1st queen elizabeth and was only 18 at the end of the 2nd world war where she served as an ambulance driver. only 8 years later, she was being crowned on almost every level kind of politically, culturally in terms of technological innovation. in terms of some society, i mean, every sort of massive change in the late 20th century. obviously, she's lived 3 things ranging from, obviously the fall off about a year at the end of apartheid africa in england, female prime minister, the 1st black president in america. so those kind of landmark,

also things like the development of the world wide web, which is obviously have a huge impact on society. the queen very much left away in technology as far as worlds, how many the consent in 1997. she actually was pretty behind launching the family 1st website, which monarchy and then in more recent years, we saw her get pretty behind things like facebook page for them on a key in 2010. and all the things while they were being developed aids would always say they were sent right to the top. it wasn't, they were being worked on my press secretaries, she ever saw all those developments and technology and she had a state. she was also all too aware of a new kind of national grid with the new liberal terrorism for a long time. took the off in the 2nd world war, the problems in northern ireland. she was shocked at a new wave of terrorism. islamic terrorism had hit london and define who she stood in that central office over there about the palace and observed 2 minutes silence.

i say defiance as if to say you can promise, but we are not photo and is brick and shifted to become a bull multicultural society. and one that was more accepting of divorce. the queen's family too, seemed to adapt when one of her grandsons, prince harry married, megan marco, a bi racial american actress who had been married before yet months after the wedding differences began to emerge. and eventually the couple made allegations of racism against members of the royal household hurry and megan and the rest of the royal family started off with the best of intentions. we're going to work together . we're going to take the will found in the 21st century. but how do you change a medieval western european system overnight? it's very difficult to do that. the queen said the family was saddened by the couples decision to step back from the royal family and moved to the united states . when she came to the throne, the queen made a promise to the nation,

whether it be no short shall be diverted, field service and does the service arrive great imperial families to which we all belong. it was a pledge, many would say she managed to fulfil remaining a constant and an ever changing world. the bucket out 0 london, while the crowds, as i said, growing all the time outside buckingham palace filtering in through the mal here. not far away in hyde park preparations on the way for a 4 gun salute a little bit later this afternoon. and a minute's silence other preparations on the way as well. sports events to be cancelled. public septa sector strikes due next week of being called on the life of this nation. slowing down during a period of public morning to pay respect to the queen. his preparations begin, of course, to move her body from the moral scott via buckingham palace here towards

a state funeral at westminster abbey. and her final resting place in georgia is polished with a buckingham palace in central london. 650 kilometers north found moral castile, where the queen died. is i'll just here as roberson rob, what's the mood of what is the significance of moral counsel to the queen on the royal family ordering since the early hours of this morning. people have been moving across this bridge, which takes you to the main gates of balmoral castle. they've been carrying flowers and tributes. they've been lighting candles and laying them on the ground next to the grills close to the gates. and many of them have been leaving messages as well . that was one message i saw, particularly that said something. thank you for your service, your dedication and your rein. it said you have been a source of calmness to me. many ways that kind of affected many of the messages

that we were seeing on the day as that. the tribute sunday, the flowers that had been left and it underscores the importance obama, little to the royal family and to the queen. in particular, the queen has spent almost every summer from when she was a very young girl at ball moral. and one of the reasons for that. one of the reasons why it is so that the heart of the british world family is if you can see behind me than the amount of trees and coverage in the dense foliage, there is there. the whole estate is surrounded by brooding high hills. the gives this sense of security and air and air being a great deal of privacy. and that was something that upon the appeal greatly to the royal family because it was a chance for them to be themselves. they often referred to buckingham palace as being the home office to the royal family. it said they refer to this simply as the family home because they were allowed to simply be human beings. what was

interesting, though, they were glad for walks in the grounds is about $50000.00 acres of land to you, but equally would drive through the local villages. when she was younger, the queen used to shop in the local stores and that made local people here in and around the castle. very protective of the royal family. and this of course is an occasion for them to be able to pay their respects. but also we have heard a great number of voices from around the world of into 2 ukranian woman i on thursday evening who are here in the pouring rain and freezing cold. and they were saying that it was terribly important for them to be here because she had simply been part of all their lives. they had grown up with the british, while family, they were fascinated by the royal family. one said that she regarded the queen as a very natural and very warm human being, despite all the responsibilities that she'd taken on. so very much a chance here in baltimore for local people to be able to show their respect. but also, of course, for people around the world to give an indication of just the kind of impact the

queen had on their lives. robust jonah was telling us a few moments ago the queen is due to be taken to london in the coming days. i wanted you to happen there in scotland in the coming hours and days. well on sunday the queen's coffin is going to be moved to the palace of hollywood in that what's going to be taken there by a road. and at the same time on that day, they're going to be proclamations made in the parliament stop in wales and northern ireland. and then on monday, there's going to be a procession along the royal mile in edinburgh. that's going to be to saint charles cathedral to us and there is going to be a period during which the that when spoken will be allowed to rest. there, there will be a service and there is, will be what's known as the visual of the princess. where the immediate members of the law family will be able to mourn her in private, but it is also possible that members of the public will be able to walk past the

coffin, whilst it is in some jealous cathedral. then on tuesday, the dolphin is going to be flown to london to buckingham palace for the funeral of procedures. and to be carried out, as jonah was talking about earlier, very much an opportunity for people to carry out a sense of morning at all stages of great britain. i'll just say was what baptism reporting live there from balmoral castle in scotland? britain's parliament will begin a meeting to pay tribute to the queen, and later in the day we expect king charles to meet prime minister list trust. let's go lived out of westminster. our diplomatic editor james bays. is there james? when his parliament, due to meet meeting one hour from now not normal business normally should have started at 930 this morning. in fact, normal business is going to be set aside for we think about 12 days until the funeral takes place. now the information that i have,

oddly coming from new york overnight, the u. n. why would, why would the us be involved in this? why would different much be talking about this? well, they are talking about it. the arrangements have been announced yet, but there is discussion going on between the u. k. of the un because will be, does the supposed to be arriving in new york for the un general assembly on the 20th. and so there's a fair bit of chord nation because will lead as many of them will be coming here 1st for the funeral. so, normal business suspended until the funeral takes place. but what will be happening in the chamber this afternoon is that we get a hip tributes from political leaders. and i think you're going to see those leaders trying to follow the tone of the people, but also set the tone for the people i was here. 25 years ago when diana died such a different moment because of course she was only 36 years old, not 96. and it was a very sudden death. but a point during that morning process the public and the authorities did not seem

insane. can i think they'll be keen to try and set the tone for the public. this meeting in parliament when we hear political leaders speaking on saturday, the something called the session council in the morning and then parliament will be meeting all day again here at westminster. also, we're going to have in the coming hours, we don't have a time for it. the 1st meeting with prime minister trust and the new king king charles. now, it was only 3 days ago that the brand new prime minister had her 1st and only audience with the late queen. that was the last public engagement that we saw the queen make. and so it will be, i think, an emotional meeting between the prime minister and king charles that takes place in the coming house. our diplomatic editor, james bass, reporting from westminster. that many thanks. d. james or world leaders have been paying tribute to queen elizabeth india's prime minister rand ramadi,

said that he's pained by her death and that she provided inspiringly to ship to her nation and people. the president of france, myoma crohn, saluted the monarch as a friend of france. he said, that should be remembered as a kind hearted queen whose left a lasting impression on her country. and on her century on china's president, she didn't ping off at his sincere sympathies to britain and to its new king. in the u. s. president biden us hailed queen elizabeth as a steadying presence in a world of change muslin. jordan reports the u. s. president paid tribute to queen elizabeth the 2nd at the british embassy in washington. and then during a political event, i the opportunity to meet her before she passed as usual, incredibly gracious and decent woman. the thoughts and prayers, the american people, or the people who united kingdom in the commonwealth and their grief biden's

and be part of be part of a family. i was lucky enough to like see her and like 3 carriage rights. so even though wasn't someone who is like, present in my life, it's still very upsetting to know that they're gone. but you know, just i think should want this by the law that she loves, like spread to her people. so that's, you know, i'm up here as the flags at the capital and the white house were lowered to half staff. the bells rang 96 times at the washington national cathedral, part of the global anglican communion attribute to the woman who was both head of the universal church and a beloved grandmother figure to so many in the us. rosalind jordan al jazeera queen elizabeth was the 1st british monarch to set foot on australian soil. it's estimated that 75 percent of the country's population came out to see her on that tour in 1954. after news of her death. prime minister anthony albanese said that

australians harps go out to the british royal family with the passing of queen elizabeth, the 2nd and historic rhine and a long loft devoted to duty. family. faith and service has come to an end. this is a morning of sadness for the world, for the commonwealth and all extravagance. it is a die of profound sadness and great for the royal family who have lost a beloved mother, grandmother, and great grandmother. the person who for so long was the greatest in strength, astrally and hearts go out to the people of the united kingdom, who mourn to die. knowing that i will field, i have lost part of what makes it nice and whole. sunday mccreery is an expert on the history of the royal family at head of the university of sydney's mountain, monarchy, and global perspectives research help. she joins us now. live from sydney. good

savvy with us, cindy. what's the mood in australia following the death of queen elizabeth? thank you, adrian. i think as we just heard these trained, i means to say the maiden astray is by march, a somber one. it's been a gray, quite wet day for most of jane, sidney and i think that reflects the mood of many strange and since the kronos is just said, that this is a nation that is, i think in morning to the queen with whom i think we felt very much that we had a very particularly strong relationship, particularly dating from her momentous, 1954 to a when millions of australians queued out in the, in a very hot summer windy days to catch sight of their queen. in a day when the visit of the queen was a very rare thing indeed, and for many older as jane's today, they will treasure those memories of that and subsequent visits. and will be mourning along with the rest of the world. australia voted to keep the queen as head of state in a referendum in 1999. will a passing you used to think reignite that a base on, on whether australia becomes

a republic. i think it will, and indeed to be honest, since may, when the new albany, the government took office in australia, one of the 1st things that prime minister albany, he did was to establish an assistant minister in task with preparing a parkway for australia to become a republic, or at least to have a referendum on that issue. now in fact avenues, the government make clear that their priorities to establish an indigenous voice in parliament. and i think that will remain their party. but i do think it not immediately, but in the next year or so that questions will be raised about whether it is appropriate to start talking again about having another referendum on the public issue. how people feel about fully prince charles. now king charles as that as the head of state, i think that many australians admire and respect. charles of particular younger people, admire his stance on climate change on environmental issues,

his commitment to youth issues. but i do think that his reputation is somewhat tarnished for australians by the complicated legacy of diana. we of course, commemorated the 25th anniversary of her death just last week. and i think that does raise issues for some people here as well. the complicated relationship of the role family with harry and meghan does, i think, raise issues, but even if a younger strains who may not to younger girls like harry and megan as ideally the future, the family. so i do think that charles has enormous li, large shoes to feel it's an incredible task to take on. and i think that there are many challenges that await him. but as far as australia specifically is, is concerned, what you think will be the queen's legacy. i think that the queen has i her legacy for us. julians has been to encourage us trainings to feel part of the commonwealth to feel part of a larger unit than simply the nation and to have

a sense of respect and admiration for britain as a nation. but also the british monarchy at a time when i think it might have been more likely that his trains would, it become perhaps more open to public. i think the queen has a lot to be thankful in keeping his jania as a common walk around. good stuff. she city many thanks. indeed for being with us. cindy mccreery, they're in sydney. there's ellen's governor general cindy kiera has sent her condolences following the death of queen elizabeth. the 2nd killer is the 1st murray woman to be the monarch's representative in new zealand. for most few cylinders, queen elizabeth has really been a constant in our lives. she's been here her whole time, and she's provided esteem, sense of continuity, and stability for us. so she's the real symbol of data cation to serve us, having served for more than 70 years. john tommy, here he is a former new zealand government minister,

and the president of the maori party. he says, the relationship between new zealand of the monarch was sometimes been a fault, one every with the crown waves as an imperial force. colonization did not work out well from digital people. fully of our great leader, all indigenous cultures. and not likes or disrespectful at the moment time when we acknowledge she's a mother grandmother, and he's been across 3 generations of our people. and as a consequence of the past. and we of course, a degree respectful. but there will be a time in a place where we uplift our county about moving towards some form of self government and using them all the time of the play for us to have the countries the love and sympathy i go with the falling of a grandmother with mother nancy,

and she, she has a family serve. we are not in flights enough at this time to make political statements until such time as she is repatriated to her mother. and then she left the 3 generation of folk. and sir, this is an extraordinary time period of human history and we've, we've grown up a lot ireland, as president michael b. higgins is paid tribute to the queen. he praised her for her historic visit in 2011 to all it will have suffered as a consequence of our trouble pass. i extend my sincere thoughts and deep sympathy. the queen was the 1st british monarch to visit the country since its independence a century ago. a trip was praised as a moment of healing island fought a war of independence against britain, but saw the country partitioned by infinity. as a historian and political commentator,

he joins us now live from belfast. good to have you with us, brian. how is the queen's passing being seen particularly the in northern ireland? well, northern ireland is a divided community and one group. the unionists are quite shocked and taken aback because a lo, it was not unexpected given with the queen as 96 or sudden day of as being a shock to break with the past because she ran so long. and she was like a constant and unionist society and union his minds for the community in the north of ireland. busy there's no great loyalty towards the queen or indeed towards britain. however, there is acknowledgement that the queen may and a huge effort that peace and reconciliation. president higgins is referred to her

visit to ireland in 2011. she also came to the northern ireland several times met the senior figures and the re mcginnis, who in many ways were responsible for the killing of close relations like lord my but so the divided response. yeah, i just, you can really under emphasize oil gram besides the importance of that state visit to i didn't in 2011. can you? i mean, she was, as you said, republicans nationalist, a sort of been indifferent to passing right up, but she was respected the island, wasn't she very much so as i say, they may be an indifferent in the sense of not having any loyalty, the royal family, but the overall everyone was aware of that. her visits in 2011

her, she led a reese or the garden of remembrance to the man who had organized the 1900. 16 rising against the british empire was enormously important and remark. she made saying things she wished some things had been done differently or not at all. um were done extremely well. a said visiting the north of ireland shaking hands with martin mcguinness who's former iraqi leader. i'm enormously important. however, there are growing calls from irish republicans and nationalists for northern ireland to leave the u. k. and for united to begin island to become a united nation, will the passing of queen elizabeth to think have any bearing on the current political debate? well, i think it will, she, that in many ways was a link was the past having ran for 70 years. the 1st prime minister that she was involved with was winston churchill. and she has presided over the loss of the

british empire since 1953 and many occasions has gone to visit commonwealth countries out of simply left the empire. so there are, there will be many people who think that this is a chance really to complete the brick. because in many ways ireland was britain's 1st colony on the north of ireland as the last remnant of that 1st colony. so it's a matter of completing the job whether or not the arrival of king charles the 3rd as has any impact. it is difficult to say. but certainly the passing of queen elizabeth, who was this constant over 70 years, will in many ways fuel the desire to complete the process of the colonialism. brian city that live for us in a belfast some breaking news news agencies reporting that of britain's king charles

has now left balmoral castle where he and other members of the royal family took gathered following the death of his mother. queen elizabeth, he is of course, sir. heading to london, king charles then succeeds his mother on the british throne, but as al jazeera sonia gay g o explains now that you king's political leanings may influence his reign. he has been waiting for the longest time. there has never been any doubt of prince charles's desire to become king, but the share span of his mother's reign has left him becoming king charles. at relatively advanced, he is himself. and charles may cause a war, controversial figure as head of state. the queen elizabeth the 2nd dead. married 1st to diana spencer. he began having an affair with camilla parker bowles before diana's tragic death. that in itself was of public relations problem. diana died so

tragedy in 1997. the challenge was how does he interview come and rehabilitate camina? who was his mistress? and the answer to that was years of painstaking work, emphasizing hunger qualities, the fact that she had them, he had so much in common like a lot together. they were similar ages had similar programs of to him in the prince . well, from the sellers of cultural pub, kate charles's seeming detachment, a perceived aloofness, have frequently led to accusations that he is out of touch with his subjects. and that will matter far more once he takes the throne, creating sustainable foods. but there are other concerns too. for many years, he has been writing private letters to government ministers, urging their interest in political issues close to his heart. these range from medicines, homeopathy, which is a favorite to fish stocks,

to the power of corporations, of a farmers convention, states that members of the royal family also bidden to express political opinions. porters have tried to ask his age, have literally blocked them, behaving on prostitution. the violence was exactly like that. so as king will he be able to keep his opinions to himself? too much by tradition, the prime minister, visits the monarch every week to tell her all him what's going on in government. it's only supposed to be an exercise in explaining policy and no more. a key questions surrounding charles is rain is whether he will reserve the right to tell the prime minister exactly what he thinks about decisions being taken by elected politicians. government has been closed. those we don't know the details, the conversations, but even know the need for the conversation. so maybe that has to be opened up. so as you can see, what is a good thing? that's a healthy thing, or maybe this is which it shouldn't happen from the sound of it. he has been

advised to keep quiet. he knows very well what is expected of him as king. he has strong views on things in national life. that's true. but i think he's also got a very strong awareness from an early age, from the queen, and from his own training and his own judgment. that is a constitutional monarch. you have to be a little bit more circumspect and i'm sure that he will be as a form of you cornel charles and also li, behind an enormous business empire in the south west of england. it's worth more than a $1000000000.00 and has been accused of helping drive local traders out of business . and that perhaps is a particular concern for supporters of the monarchy. which as of now, is a large majority in the u. k. the question is whether he can maintain that popularity. queen elizabeth kept her support during many years when the behavior of

her family raised many eyebrows. the crown of the richmond, and it got to the cambridge. and it's on arguable that in terms of the brand of a house of windsor, charles, his son, william and his wife katherine, are seen as a more exciting proposition, more glamorous than a man who seems often to prefer his own company to that of others. charles has no doubt had many years to dwell on these things. his choices will help determine where the support for the monarchy continues as it is now. so we're sonya diagonal . i'll de zera at owens, his royal historian. he george style lived from london at his gerhardt to follow what sort of king will charles be? it's a great question. you know, the challenge that the new king is face, that is that he spent so long in the public eye as prince of wales. he came into the that role so young and there was no real blueprint for him to follow. inevitably, he was going to develop interests in certain issues of public concern. and as we've

just heard, he's regularly vented his opinions on issues ranging from, from the environment through passing medicine. and of course the architecture in the built well. so there was a challenge now. he said in 2019 that he wouldn't exercise his political voice any longer. that coincided with his 70th birthday. but as you rightly put it, he's got a hard act to follow because elizabeth, the 2nd was the most perfect version of the constitutional monarch that we've ever seen. so any, if you like, divergence from hum, model of monarchy will be noticed by the public. i was more does he have to keep his opinions to himself? i think he does and it's certainly the case that he might continue to talk about the need to deal with the climate crisis in platitudes and in generalities. but we

now have, for example, a conservative government led by liz truss, who's just appointed jacob reese, mark as her as her energy minister in the u. k. and he is a climate skeptic. they're all going to be sections of the current conservative cook and conservative party in the u. k. who are questioning britons net 0 targets for example. and prince charles has, has come out and supportive britain's net 0 target in the past. now if the, the new king is, is not careful, he could find himself directly in opposition to, to members of parliament who of course, are democratically elected when he is not. and that could lead to some kind of constitutional crisis course we may never know of. and he may keep his opinions to himself as far as the public are concerned, but he may express in private to politicians, the prime minister in particular, at their weekly audiences and his feelings on, on certain issues. if you think,

do you think that if he can't influence a political direction on to answer this used to think that will frustrate him. i think we saw as prince of wales, that there was a certain degree of frustration in prince charles. he wrote the black spider letters lobbying essentially some of the highest ministers of state and to be prime minister, tony blair, leading civil servants, trying to essentially put pressure on them to pursue his, his goals. now that charles his king, he will have to, of course, refrain from any of any of that kind of behavior. that doesn't mean that he doesn't use his weekly audience with his prime minister to raise concerns. i'm just, i'm sure that his, his mother did the same that she use that space of the tuesday audience with the

premise to, to talk about her concerns about the country. because of course they are, they are private conversations. they are not meant to leave buckingham palace, those, those conversations. so i think we've already seen a man who is frustrated by the, if you like, the cage in which he has to exist as a, a constitutional figure. but i imagine he will look to embrace a more non nonpartisan, a less controversial row now that he has succeeded to the throne. how do you think the british public will feel about and you king, will they want to him? we have a new king. we also have a new king who is a man experiencing bereavement. and i think certainly in the short term that will be an emotional routing around the figure of the, of the new monarch. because he has lost his mother. and we're going to see over the course of the next 10 days, 2 weeks, there will be

a lot of positive attention directed at the new king by the media focusing on his images as a family man. focusing on his images. as an environmentalist and the positive legacy there as well, i think he will be confident in the best in the best light. certainly in the short term. i think once we've moved beyond this, this point in time, and maybe in the months, months to come, we will start to reflect more, more fully on, on what this new monarchy led by the new king charles the 3rd really made good talk to you as many thanks and dave royle historian evans that let's take a look at what else is happening in the world on al jazeera in just a moment. but 1st, some images from queen elizabeth's 70 year rain. oh, i didn't have

to try her life. whether it's been all short shall be debated. the old service. ah ah ah, what i said, you know the queen and as a grandmother, i say from my heart, i want to pay tribute to diana myself. she was an exceptional and gifted human being. ah, ah
