it was previously suggested the queen would interrupt her stay at balmoral to meet with the new prime saying clarity now would help with time planning — as our royal correspondent nicholas witchell explains. up until now, every one at the queen's prime ministers has been appointed by her here at buckingham palace. it's one of her prerogative powers, not done on the advice of ministers, and by convention, she invites the leader of the largest party in the house of commons to form a government. this time it will be different, it will take place at balmoral, as you've said, and the reason for that, of course, is to do with her health. now, we know that buckingham palace is extremely circumspect about any issue concerning her health. all it will say is that there are the mobility issues that we encountered during thejubilee and there is a need for all the participants to have certainty about the arrangements next week. so, next tuesday, the 6th of september, borisjohnson will be at balmoral where he will tender his resignation as prime minister, and moments later, either liz truss or rish
