official engagements over the coming days isn't it isn't a chance this is all been planned very, very carefully for years. ah. although i think they've altered some of the plans. but in terms of what's going on in terms of the procedural stuff. some of it has to be done because their ancient traditions, this is a country that does things the way they've always been done. a most cases, what we're going to see on saturday, something called the session council, is going to meet the 1st time that has met. since that the queen took the throne back in 1952 that consists of the privy council, which is a very ancient body, exists from the time when the king used rule all on his own before there was a parliament with any power and they were the advisers of the king, the privy council still exists and is still used for some purposes that will meet along with representatives of the countries where the weather, where the king now is,

is king as well as the u. k. there are 14 other countries they will represent there . and then the 2nd part of that meeting, king charles will come in and take an oath and speak to those present. he's already the king, the he became king, the moment his mother died. but this is a rubber stamping. remember, going back years and years in history, there was sometimes questions over succession. there were sometimes wars in europe over succession. this is showing everyone that he is the rightful king. that a session council taking place on saturday. and then after that more tribute here in the, in the house of commons throughout the rest of saturday and some of the m. p. 's the senior mpg will be swearing their oath of allegiance in that saturday session to king charles or all of the employees will have a chance to do that when parliament is formerly sitting back in normal business after the period of morning, which we believe is going to go on for more than 10 more days. no formal

arrangements announced yet for the funeral, but the word i'm hearing is it's most likely to take place on monday. the 19th of september or at james has always it's a pleasure to speak to you james bayes. in westminster, our diplomatic editor. thank you. let's take a look now at the queen elizabeth. the seconds long rang, she so widespread changes across the country. she rolled over as well as the world she lived in throughout everything she remained a constant. as ne baccha reports arranged sole use of dramatic 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 the 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 sort of 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 with 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. mcqueen very much left away in technology as far as world families, a consent in 1997. she actually was pretty behind launching the family 1st website, a british monarchy. and then in more recent years, we saw pretty behind things like facebook page for them on

a key in 2010. and all the things while they were being developed, a would always say they were sent right to the top. it wasn't, they were being worked on by press secretaries. she ever saw all those developments in technology. and she had said 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 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 all over there about your palace and observed 2 minutes silence. i said you fonts as if to say you can promise, but will not folder. and it's pretty shifted to become a multi cultural society and one that was more accepting of divorce, the queen's family to seem 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 raw household. harry 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 world found into the 21st century. but how do you change a medieval western european system overnight? it's very difficult to do that. the cream, so 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 long or short shall be devoted to your service and to the service of our great imperial family 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 parker al jazeera london.

okay, this is amadine airport in scotland just moments ago. this is the 1st to look at king charles the 3rd same publicly for the 1st time since the queen's death, by his side under a clear umbrella. was the queen consort camilla. you could see her just a few moments ago. king charles is now on his way to london to meet new prime minister at least trust. later on friday, it's bringing our guest now at owens, who's a royal historian and joins us live from london. it thanks so much for being on the program. we have 2 people here in to new jobs to high profile jobs. what you suspect is going to happen when they meet in a few moments time. it's usually practical when a prime minister meets a monarch for the 1st time there is a kissing of hands, respectful exchanges from the the prime minister, knowledge in the new monarch in the, in that position. so this is part of,

of protocol dating back to the 19th century in terms of how a new monarch is greeted by a sitting prime minister. what kind of king do you expect prince, i keep going, calling to call him prince. what kind of king do you think king charles will be? what a great question. i think it is. it is the sort of the number one question that we are thinking about as we look to the future. the, the interesting thing about king charles is that he spent so long as a prince of wales when he came into that role when he was invested as prince of wales in 969, there was no real blueprint for what he might do with that position and of course he developed a team interests in relation to matters of, of public, of public importance. he was very early to speak about the environment as we just

heard from your report. he's also expressed concern regarding things like the, the architectural world and the built environment. he has exercised opinions in ways that certain his mother did not while she was on the throne. and yet at the same time, we know that the king said in 2019, at the time of his 70th birthday, that he wouldn't continue to express publicly his, his political. he's because he recognized that the role of constitutional monarch required that he, he embraced a more in partisan neutral position. i want you to stay there. we want to come back to in just a moment, but we're going to get the live saying now outside buckingham palace where the dame baba is standing by for us name. what's it like where you are? it's only been 24 hours since we received this news.

that's right, and throughout that period, people have been arriving here, walking down the mile and various approaches to buckingham palace. it's quite a quiet scene right now. the brothers have gone down because the rain has stopped without, didn't put lots of people turning up in the last few hours and it's no simple how diverse the crowd has been. not the british moon is here, but also people from other countries. some of them actually on tourist groups being a guided around the area. and so base is just an added incident on that trick. but many people very, very aware of who penalize it but was what she meant to this nation. and beyond. people have also been coming some of them with flow tribute, that they actually not to bring them to where i'm standing, which is kind of the gate at the edge of the green talk opposite buckingham palace, but to take them to specific areas that are being prepared here in green park and

in hyde park as well, i'm not being repeated other royal policies and royal properties such as windsor castle and in scotland too. so people really just trying to gather their thoughts here and reflect on what relate queen meant to them. i spoke to one woman in the crowd here a while ago who traveled down from scotland, and she said that the queen had been part of her life. interestingly, she said she was born in the same year as queen elizabeth coronation. and her daughter actually served in the kings. true, she'd come down to relieve her daughter, basically said that her daughter could go on holiday. her daughter now will not be going on holiday cuz she's on official duty, but that lady said she really understood it wasn't a problem for her. it was a big occasion. and she'd actually been to bowel moral on

a few occasions through her daughter's service. just a reminder of how people around britain feel connected to the queen in some way, whether through the armed forces or through various charities. the queen was involved in all to hit her social occasion. lots and lots of people. when wondering, as we were just hearing, what chase that will be, what kind of king charles the 3rd will be. and whether this actually marks a change in approach from the new monica, the queen was a very private person. despite that though many, many people really do fail a familiar connection with her. and that's why, you know, you've come down here, the newspapers, they're completely sold out around the news. the news agents in this area, you can get one, everybody wanting to, to get the historic addition, but also to remind themselves of how the queen's presence punctuated this country's

history. that will be a gun silly here. hyde park, also it's imposed cathedral through the day when the call, so and also around the nation. so in edinburgh, the scottish capital in card, if the wealth capital and in belfast 2 and those tributes have been pouring in from all of the nations, not just from people who are staunchly in support of the monarchy, but also from republicans in northern islands. notably, paying tribute to the queen and the way she handled her cell phone visit to northern ireland. i'm to the republic of ireland over the years. so just a reminder that of what she meant to people, the period of morning is going to go on for well over a week. and we've already seen things like sports events canceled the last day of the problems the last night, rather of the problems that musical occasion canceled. a postal strike has been

called off next week's rail strike to the r m t union saying that they're not going to take that industrial action in light of events. so it has had a big impact. it will continue to have a big, big impact in the days to come and aim. thank you very much for the update and painting that picture named bob a live for us in the buckingham outside, buckingham palace rather. or let's go back to, i guess, now is owens who's a royal historian and he's in the london. thanks so much for joining us again. we heard from the dame and that king charles will certainly have some big shoes to fill after britton's longest serving monarch a 7 decade rain. she has passed away. certainly a tough older or tall order for human head. yes. and i was struck listening to your correspondence just then a bite. how well wishes had gathered outside the palace to knowledge the long rain? it's clear from these expressions of public grief,

a sin to see that she meant something different to lots of different people. for some, she was to quote, the, the prime minister, sort of the rock, a stability at the heart of the british nation, also is the leader of his majesty's opposition kissed alma, talked of her as this sort of focal point for comfort. for reassurance, i think that was very significant risk recently, but you know, stretching back 70 years, she came into the role as a young mother. many, many young women, many young men identified with family image as she grew up. many people identified us with her as a grandmother and then a great grandmother across the full u. k. nation's. she's meant something very different depending where you are, whether you are in wales, whether you are in scotland or not, and or england. it is the case that many have seen it has as, as a kind of unifying force. and i think it's because she has meant so many different

things that really explains the sense of loss, but also the popularity that really characterized her. right. and you talk about her enormous popularity. will charles be able to match that? and if not, what impact will that have on the commonwealth going forward? certainly, in the short term, i expect that public sentiment, public commotion will, will rally around the, the new figure of the king. not least because of course, he is a figuring grief he is. he is bereaved. he has lost his mother and certainly over the course of the next week, 2 weeks, i think there will be a lot of positive expressions of loyalty of affection for the new king at this time . and yes, of course, he isn't as well liked as his mother was. he is a little controversial personality. and i think over time we will start to reflect

on the start of this new rain. and i think his, his popularity will ultimately hinge on whether he embraces the, the model of constitutional kingship, embodied by his mother. he not speaking his political opinions or whether he continues to express his ideas and views in ways that upset sections of the public and possibly sections of parliament as well. so i think a lot remains to be saying. all right, and thank you so much for your time at owens my 1st day in london. and as we have been speaking about prince charles who's now the king succeeds his mother on the british throne. and is sonia gay, go, explains the new king's political leanings may influence his reign. he has been waiting for the longest time. there has never been any doubt. prince charles is desire to become king, but the ship span of his mother's reign has left him becoming king charles at

relatively advanced years 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 intervention come rehabilitate? camina, who was his mistress and the answer to that was years of painstaking work, emphasizing her good 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 coastal up 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 for porters have tried to ask his a, 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 question 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. we don't know the details of the conversation, but even know the remote for that conversation. maybe that after it opened up so you can see what is a good thing. that's a healthy thing, or maybe there's a, there's a which shouldn't happen from the found 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 that you cornel. charles will also leave 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 code of the regiment, and it does it. and it's an arguable that in terms of the brand of a house of charles as son william and his wife, catherine, 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 whether support for the moloch. he continues as it is now in the world. so any guy, yeah, go, i'll just, sarah. meanwhile, world ladies have been paying tribute to queen elizabeth in the us. president joe biden has said she was a steadying presence in

a world of change. but in order the flags on all federal buildings, including the white house to be lowered in tribute to the queen. rosalind jordan has more from us the us 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. and she's incredibly gracious in decent woman. the thoughts and prayers, the american people, are the people who 9 and kingdom and the commonwealth in their grief buttons, remarks honored the special relationship between a monarchy and it's one time colony. ties routed and cooperation during 2 world wars in all. queen elizabeth hosted or visited 13 of the 14 post war presidents. these weren't gatherings to plan global economic or security agenda us . as head of state,

the queen was barred from making policy. these were opportunities to reaffirm the u . s. and you case commitment to democracy. civility and human dignity. former us presidents including barack obama bill clinton and donald trump issued condolence statements, and ordinary citizens pay their respects at the embassy, including some who shared the queen's affection for corgis. she also helped bring the idea of dogs into the home and show that dogs are not just animals to belong farms, but also they can belong to in a row, patterson, and be part of the part of a family. i was lucky enough to like see her and like 3 carried rides on. so even though wasn't someone who's like present in my life, it's still very upsetting to know that they're gone. but you know, just i think should want to spend the love at sheila like spend 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 you, us. rosalind jordan, else's era. new zealand and australia, both commonwealth nations have been paying tribute to the queen. adrian brownfield, this report from what wellington in new zealand people. morning the passing of a british monarch who was also them on for all or most of their lives. prime minister, just inter arden among the thousands of people signing books of condolence. she said queen elizabeth had been the nation's mother and grandmother the last days of the queen's life, captured who she was in so many ways. working to the very end on behalf of the

it's always said the family. when the loved one passed away and the queen's being such a big feature of our lives for so long, a sentiment echoed across the tasman see in australia where the queen was also head of state. she 1st visited both countries of monarch almost 70 years ago. at the start of her reign, there is comfort to be found in her majesty's own words. great is the price we pay for love. this is a loss we feel deeply in australia. queen elizabeth the 2nd is the only reining monarch most of us had known. and the only one to ever visit australia. many people in new zealand and australia woke up to the news, actually really in shock, and i'm probably gonna walk away and cry. i'm going to cry. i know that's crazy, but shocks initially sad. i'm adding a day. everyone will remember where they were and what they're doing. sorry, yeah,
