10:34 am
hello and welcome to inside. sorry i am hush him a bottle. the united kingdom has said a final good bye to its longest reigning monarch quinn. elizabeth the 2nd was crowned in 1953 just a few years after world war 2. when she had was served in the military at the mechanic. while her father helped rally britain against the germans during her seventies all the throne, she witnessed the fall of imperialism and the rise of democracies. queen elizabeth was not only the head of the royal family and the british had of state. she was the head of the commonwealth. a group of 56 independent nations, thought a higher looks back at her legacy. a nation pauses. 2
10:35 am
minutes of silence observed not only across the united kingdom, barts in several other countries, a final good bye to queen elizabeth the 2nd ah, seats in rich british and christian tradition. her funeral was held in westminster abbey. the 800 year old building where she married and later crowned wald leader, heads of government dignitary. now the rules were in attendance on her casket, imperial state, crown and the sovereign sceptre. and all symbols of the power of the monarchy. and controversially, it's colonialism recent caused by many in south africa in india, for the jewels to be returned. ah, the queen's funeral lashes in a new era. her son charles, the 3rd is now king. he's also head of 56 commonwealth countries, mostly former colonies, with a population of around 2 and a half 1000000000. for 14 of these countries,
10:36 am
he is head of state supports as say they benefit from a membership that includes bilateral corporation on international goals, jocelyn, market, pow during her ryan. she was committed to her nation and friendships with others in the commonwealth. she earned our respect and admiration by winning the hearts of millions of people in the u. k. and the world. excellent. because one of the common one the bhaskar. busy truly canada, of all, i think that all canadians will reflect appropriately on the queen. the different governments have made their own decision to mark the occasion. but for me, i recognize that for 70 years, there's been a queen who was profoundly interested in canada up format. but to try to say the commonwealth is a post colonial club with little relevance in the modern world. and the association of king charles has led to renewed calls to remove the british monica as head of state for some nation. let's look out who we are. the people who we are or the
10:37 am
nation m really look at moving forward. let's look at the colonizing from britain, the united nations. they've told us, you need to the colonizers riley. you need to cut off the colonial shackles. this will be the time to do it. with the rise and nationalist, nancy colonial sentiment, the future of the british monarchy is uncertain. charles says he's ready to embrace change, but it's unclear to what extent that change will affect britain's legacy. ah, so to hide it inside story ah, let's bring in our guess from london zaid bedbugs. you managing partner hardcastle advisory of political consultancy from new delhi medulla mckenzie. a professor of history. a joy le narrow university and from sydney were joined by cindy mccreery had of the more than monarchy in global perspectives research hub at sydney
10:38 am
university. welcome to the program. they'd is defining what it means to be a monarch in modern times, particularly this ever changing political landscape in the okay, is it going to be the biggest challenge facing king charles the 3rd i think it will be and you're quite right to point out asha however it is something that the monarchy has looked at for several decades. now we've seen a monarchy that's growing very much more acute to young people's issues. the use of social media trending issues such as climate change. and i think king charles, while he's been taking on some of the roles of, of her late majesty, has been very keen to embrace there's issues to keep the, the monarchy up to date and relevant rodella. king charles, the 3rd is definitely going to start building bridges with, with the different parts of the world, and particularly with the commonwealth index, part of a, of the commonwealth king. when he was a prince,
10:39 am
charles made many visits to india. he said he was impressed with the diversity of the country, but you get a says that there is a complex relationship there, particularly this sentiment among the indians that the, that britain needs to apologize for the atrocities that were committed during the british colonial rule. for the 1st part of the fixture, and yes, i think the fax back came when he was in st. john's made more than 10 visits to endeavor, just wait time news august. be sure that you had strong interest in many aspects of the country. it is known that for example, i would be by the system of medicine. he showed a lot of interest in some really interesting aspect. you know, for example, that the ball as a bomb b deliver defense to lack of people to bicycle and chain and
10:40 am
whatnot. so he's been interested in, in many things. mother theresa in there, very interesting stories of his so obviously i think he has already affiliated with the country, which will be much more than many other in the family. and i was so i understand that. so by the very famous holy stick physicians being his one day in a decade, manners white. so i think that i speak the off in life, which obviously interested him, fascinated him. a lot of interest, as you know, in the issue of climate change, you supported various strategies that have worked in india. so i don't think it's going to be like, and i'm get it to be for him and i don't think he should find it to be within
10:41 am
budget and you know, the, the feeling or sometimes that did mind that comes or apartment g for the atrocities that i think the demand for me was basically like when the queen made her last visit, there was a public anger or a feeling that when she visited genoa bar, which was the site of one of the atrocities, rare hundreds of people who were killed in black, that she should apologize when she didn't actually apologize in so new but, but expressed a regret. and so there was also a sense of regretting in debt that she did not come across as full upon. did you been a google ish to point out when you went? well, there is, this is cynthia senate, if you don't mind, i'll get back to you to talk more in detail about those issues. but let me go next to cindy. cindy, i would like to ask you this question. is there an urgent need for king charles the
10:42 am
3rd to reinvent rebrand reform? the monarchy for the monarchy itself to continue to appeal to his own people. thank you hush. and that's a really complex question. because on the one hand, i do think as an earlier speaker said that there are many issues that charles is can very committed to such as climate change, youth issues which appeal very much young people in my country's julia. but also countries in the not kingdom and around the world. and i think that would give charles great more popularity with that demographic. and we know, for example, that many young people don't actually connect very well with charles at the moment . and they have more sympathy and interest in younger members of the world family, not only the new prince and princess of wales, but also controversial harry and meghan. so that's a challenge to charles if he wants to retain and encourage youth interest in him as
10:43 am
a monarch. on the other hand, of course, as he said in his 1st speech, following the queen's death, he very much wants to follow in her footsteps and he, what he's trying to demonstrate a sense of stability and continuity with the very successful ran his mother. but to modernize too quickly or too far to appeal to young people, wrists, of course, losing support among older generations who typically tend to be more in favor of the monarchy in many countries. so i think it's a very great challenge to charles and also that i think a number of the areas where charles can perhaps make the greatest contribution is not in his role as sovereign. but as head of the commonwealth on climate change, youth issues are areas where not only are many people interested around the corner, but it's also an area where he may be able to speak more freely than of course he can as a sovereign way. of course he needs to be very quiet and not to be seen to be meddling in the politics of britain or need any other country. zayed king charles, the 3rd is king of the u. k. for deeply divided nations,
10:44 am
the form v and i with kingdom divided by class generation geography. politics economy, isn't this an extremely extraordinary task, though the monarchy itself will have to assume that if he is in the near future to be able to bring together this, this governing all 4 nations, you're quite right hush him. and again, like we've discussed earlier in this debate, it's one about relevance. you will have know said that the monarchy has been very keen to hug the devolved nations of scotland more than islands and wales during this 10 days of national morning. it is no mistake or accident that the queen began . the coffin began in edinburgh, there were bagpipes that a funeral and king charles with keen to address the wealth parliament in welsh. and there, there was a very emotive visit to belfast. there's no mistake that the morning he has done
10:45 am
this on purpose and even going further afield. there will be an issue of course with with them the home nations. but even father field with canada, australia, new zealand. we can expecting charles to be on the plane. i think that the queen visited canada over 20 times again. she was, i'm sure, and a great author of her own funeral today, and it was no mistake and no accident that canadian mounties led the funeral procession again and not to a larger, more political issue that may or may not rear it had in the future. in terms of the most pressing one for king charles it would be scotland because there are parts of scotland. flight the rest is with regards to the parts of the union. however, what he has on his side is his grandmother, the queen, mother, queen elizabeth. she was, she was scottish, the family does have deep scottish roots, and it will not be lost upon many that king james. the 1st came to inherit the road
10:46 am
from elizabeth the 1st and he was king of scots, and the 2 the 2 kingdom are very much united in terms of blood and history. where did a quite interesting wife after the death of queen elizabeth seconds in india, particular social media, there was this demand for the return of the famous gay nor a diamond that was his india. and which forms the, the, the, the main job on the, the main part of the crown jewel. now apart from this, they said this aside, bony india, when you have part of the commonwealth, you have the queen. now the king as the head of the state, although a symbolic roll, doesn't this going to look one day, a very anachronistic idea that needs to go away with history. you know, i think it's necessary to understand that when you get to the farm road, this is to was very much there. then how would in there during the fall and
10:47 am
becoming so this was back in get it knocked at 9. the king or the queen of england asked them why not, not, not that it's not the same relationship as has the king was then recognized as the symbol of the unity of the best, but not as a monarch, or as somebody who was recognized as the head in any way it occupied any position building. so this was the one that was made on the right to act that i mean to be active independent. so therefore the monarchy in relative not being in the same way advocate scene from from australia. we tried to extend, you know, which, which were where british people you know,
10:48 am
so there is that is i don't think they have any issue or what their baptist was wrong. nobody in order leaving this week. so we know england ready defend due to that being about the court. he knew or you know, this demand keeps coming up from time to time. and of course it's, it's really from up now, which has come up or is ready. now that this is a time to use that frankly, i don't think that it's for the we would be really happy to get the call, you know, but i think politically, why my guys that i think that that needs to be 3 that you know, the thing is that the british rock returning all that they have taken from the rest of the words the bridge is going to be and i don't thing back. yeah, jim, i don't think it's cindy. the bahamas prime minister philip davis intends to hold
10:49 am
a referendum to remove king, chose a 3rd as official head of state of the bahamas. this comes against the back of a decision made in 2021 by but bade us, which removed quinet as of the 2nd as quick as head of the state, the strangers are looking forward to do the same thing. are we talking about an organization for commonwealth that becomes more and more irrelevant in the eyes of many people? well, i think we need to distinguish hash and between the commonwealth and commonwealth realms. are there 56 nation members of the commonwealth, but of those to t 636 are republics like india and only 1415, including united kingdom are commonwealth rounds and then there are 5 other monarchies. so i don't think is a question that the commonwealth itself will become irrelevant that i do think we will see as use just suggested more commonwealth robins becoming republics. that what we know, and india really was the test case to this, that it is possible for
10:50 am
a country to become a public but remain within the commonwealth. i do think that will happen. i don't think all come of runs will change. i don't the canada will, and i think we know in his chair that our prime minister is confirmed that his priority in his 1st term of office is to in china and indigenous voice in hon. it. and that her reverend, on the public would wait till her 2nd term of his government, which in his j would not start til 2025. so i think we've got a while to wait with strayer, new zealand and other bumps. but the commonwealth itself, i think, has potential now with charles as its head. because as i've said, he is so interested in many issues which are relevant. the commonwealth has some of the youngest. it's got the very and youthful population. it's got some of the poorest nations in the world. it's got nations which are so vulnerable to climate change. and these are issues which charles has a solid track record of advocating for. so i think the commonwealth might actually become more relevant under charles's leadership,
10:51 am
even if the number of commonwealth rounds drops. and they do a token her early about scotland. she's a but us, you know, there's this pro independence sentiment which is gaining momentum in different parts of the world in scotland was one of those spaces in of an island. the sheen fame became the af, so this year's elections, the largest political party in northern ah, islands assembly. couldn't this been indication of the molecule really have to talk to some of the most delicate issues they have just been delayed for quite some time, which is basically many people saying those about time for us to solve our own political course, our own destiny definitely. and i think scotland is an important case. as you know, there was a referendum in 2014, around 55 percent decisive, 55 percent. and wanted to stay part of the united kingdom. the same in canada have
10:52 am
a show you know, about 55 percent in australia and elsewhere. but the home nations i think, will be the most pressing issue and a real challenge that i think the new king would like to, to confront head on the wealth and the power of this, this country is because of this and very union. and i think it's almost sacred so where the monarchy will be at the forefront of effort to try and keep these these countries and tied together. but there are strong ties, and i think it's almost a wakeup call. it's not much invitation for them to leave. they have to devolve parliament or senate. they have 1st ministers, they have a lot of sign off on their own internal policies. for example, in scotland, however, the monarchy will need to look at this quite closely. and you'll your right to, to raise that hash and definitely marilla. what we've, we've spoken about the challenges. on the other hand,
10:53 am
when you look at king charles, the crown prince, he was known for his outspoken senses when it comes to the climate change, religious tolerance, diversity, and so on. and so for do you think that these issues could help him build bridges with different parts of the world, the commonwealth and india in particular, because there was an 8th among many, many people all over the world. certainly certainly i think these are the sites are within quotes, non political issues where it is important for and i think that's why i'm beginning to feed on in the common room because the extent that any avenue was rick, i'm fees work together in areas other than just straight job well important to perform and they can be a very important for them, a progressive for them for working on issues that we to actually need. and
10:54 am
everybody knows. but can we change issue with the one of the biggest issues before they just see what's happening? i mean, like one of the country is on the south. a chef is actually dealing on the impact fee and i'm believe i think we would be more than happy this part of the was for any initiatives that leadership which makes people together and have strategies which actually work and get rid of them all we could do that cindy, the king charles, the 3rd his mother was coordinated during the decline of the british empire. she passed away amid the uncertainty about the future of the u. k. following briggs, it, do you think that in a way or another,
10:55 am
the future of the monarchy itself in the okay, is going to be purely shaped by political and economic issues in the u. k. itself in the, in the long run. hi shawn. this is a very difficult question answer, but i don't think it's just going to be simply political and economic issues which will determine the future of the monarchy in the u. k. i think that as, as other speakers have said, there are strong ties of history with the for her nations, but also with the commonwealth. i think in a sense, as well, a monarchy that can modernize and can gain the good will and the support of young people in particular and younger generations by showing, as we saw with the funeral procession, the promise of, of the future. not just the current monarch but the future, the air to the throne and d, the next ended threat with william and george. and i think also a monarchy that you know, in the worlds of words of william
10:56 am
a budget that 19th century in a political, dearest, you got things constitutional. talked about the magic at the dignified part of the constitution. anybody can get that. this is where that sort of magic could keep the monica going. busy albert in a, in a ceremony, a way, i think that celebrity now is sort of entwined into monarchy. you know, we see that, that the way that i think many people understood the right of elizabeth the 2nd not through history but through external programs like the crown on television, on this in a sense, weirdly, i think, made offer hope for childhood monte. if people can continue to believe in the magic, ok, zayed one, you succeed. some one who has been there for 70 years has been larger. the life could talk king charles the 3rd legacy u. b. just trying to maintain the same appeal, the monarchy has had during quinn, elizabeth,
10:57 am
the 2nd that on its own was going to be widely seen as his biggest contribution. i mean the reality of this conversation hush him is longevity as in this has the one he has been in times like this before king george the queen victoria had a very long rain and the rain after them rain for particularly short periods is just the reality of, of life i think though the king has some very specific views which he will make known. for example, on the size of the family. the reality is this will be a catholic rain and a filler between 2 other 2 other rain. that's simply the way that succession works . however, what i would add is that want to keep always 100 detractors. but the real interest and the magic that would last mentioned is that you're in, i'm in london. our guests are in australia and in india, and were discussing a family in central london, this to me and the out pouring of condolences et cetera over the last few weeks
10:58 am
shows the enduring quality of this family, whether it's through celebrity, whether it's or it's political influence, whether it's through colonial legacy has a huge footprint. thank you. on the world. and i think we've seen that, you know, just with the commonwealth on how to go and go and have join these. a french colonies that have joined the commonwealth, which i think is going to be the sign of the way forward. gentleman, ladies and gentlemen, really running out of time. i wish we had more time to continue our conversation about this interesting topic said, well, patsy. it turned on because he seemed mccreery, i really appreciate you and i thank you and thank you for watching. you can see the program again anytime by visiting our website. i'll just, you know, dot com for further discussion because our facebook page, facebook dot com forward slash ha inside. or you can also join have a conversation with our 100 is us ha, inside probably from the house your mind, but i am the entire team here in the hun, bye for now. the
