2:05 am
floral attributes of spilled out from buckingham palace onto the gardens of green park. the crowds, unrelenting snake, their way along a one way system that no one quite understands. so they just follow the people in front holland, his oppressed, into action, fetching, carrying, removing plastic, packaging, loving messages. remember a queen who was the nation's grandmother to we've been here since about 6 this morning. just trying to clear the flowers from what we found since you've been have been completely overwhelmed on fixing truck so far. and everyone's just coming in, giving us a hand. we just look at the people, they're picking everything up the little bit in the clear and everything up to 20 or so years of people the culture of never seen anything like it. it's almost like a kind of pilgrim, isn't it?
2:06 am
thousands of people coming here many with a genuine sense of grief, others to have a physical experience of history and to leave their mark. and here in this place, it feels almost universal. actually, everyone must want to be here. but of course, that's not the case. elsewhere, life goes on largely undisturbed, respectfully blacked out display windows at one of london's most famous stores serve only to hide the bustle of shoppers inside a majority, generally approve of the monarchy in britain today. but much of that is down to the popularity of the queen and her grandchildren. for younger generations, it is an institution with questionable relevance. personally, it doesn't affect me. i know that might sound a bit insensitive thought, i understand the significance, thought it doesn't have an impact on my life. personally, i think that's a general feeling with my friends. i think they're good. it's good to have like a head of the country. like a figure to look up too,
2:07 am

2:08 am
state. chris men, job ra is a professor of history who specializes in colonialism and empire. he says it is understandable that people will know the queen, but there are chapters in british colonial history we shouldn't forgive. in discussing and talking about the glorification of the queen as we're seeing in her passing, what aren't you talking about now? that's kind of the question that i'm left with. specifically the violence that has been committed in the name of the queen really over the course of her whole rank. that's what really worries me that that story is not being told and it's not a media. there are many people in our world, and that's the majority of the world who understand at a family level and at the national level. why inferior violence matters when we look at how the colonization ended? yes, it ended in the time in which queen elizabeth came to the throne and the 1900 began
2:09 am
the nation 1520 came to the throne. we've been in a period of the colonization from the 1950s onwards, but during the same period, we've seen ongoing injustice. we've seen under the rule of queen elizabeth, we've seen the violence and the plunder and the massacres that took place in malaya . in yemen and aiden in kenya, the mom out uprising we've seen under development that has been made systemic in places like the caribbean and africa and even south asia. and you know, in my own research, i just determined, i discovered that it took until 2015 for the british government to in fact stopped paying its debt that it took out about a 180 years ago for slave owner. reparations. and this was being carried on again in the name of the queen. so the pastor colonialism continues to live on today. and
2:10 am
partly it's because we continue to tell the story of the empire and not appreciate the pain in the suffering and the plunder of those who have been colonized by that empire. that, that, that's something that we need to make some space for. i think preliminary results and sweden's general election suggest right wing opposition parties will win, but with a very slim majority, votes are still being countered. and if the current trend holds moderate party leader off, kristen is expected become prime minister. he is likely to have the support of the far right sweden, democrats, who have made gains with some vote as her unsettled by the prospect of the far right block. having a sigh on government policy. i'm really scared about those, those policies. i don't want them to get any power at all. i think they frighten me a lot. i try to sympathize as well. try to understand them, i should say. ah,
2:11 am
they make me feel a bit of dread, i guess, a bit of dread that the year that the most important issues for a lot of people is the fact that people from other countries are, are coming here and trying to well, to survive. i guess i think there is a lack of the action actually taken. um, i feel like they are not real. acknowledging all the dishes, we have a very much with the shootings with the segregationist. we have a and i believe they mean, well i think they want to solve it. they isn't think they do it as well as the good of them are paul race joins us live from stuck home. now pull, this looks like it's go right down to the wire and when do you think will will we will have a result. well, not to night. i'm here at the election vigil of the social democrat party, the party of the prime minister magdalena and the sham about 20 minutes ago. she
2:12 am
had a speech on this stage hare thanking her policy for the air for that for their electioneering, but saying that we probably won't have a result until wednesday. that's something that the an, the election authority hair has confirmed as there were many light votes today. and this also as votes from abroad, still to be counted. but the mood here are the social democrats election vigil has gone from very confident early in the night to pretty deflated, amidst them increasingly triumphant speeches from the right wing opposition. as it stands now, it looks like there's only, there's only back a seat in it in parliament, but it does look as if of chris to send the moderate party leader. we'll be able to build a right wing government. and of course, he's able to do that because for the 1st time, one of the major parties is willing to work with the right wing suite. and
2:13 am
