king and training. now, charles will take on the role that he has been preparing for his entire life. anna king charles, the third's m. he's had his fair share of controversies and he is a very different character to his mother. but a very similar sense of duty. do you think that he can become as beloved as his mother was? as queen know would be the short answer and he's been around for too long. he's made too many very public mistakes and he doesn't have now have 7 to years to sit on the throne to build up that affection mung, the british public. but he has been really successful in rebuilding his public reputation when he married camilla after the disaster of his marriage, to diana. at that time was the 1st step really to him coming back into the affections of people, people to see that is quite romantic thing to do. you know, they'd always been in love. and the smart thing that he's doing is to ally himself very closely with his oldest son, william and his wife, kate, you know, and i will, him, is the next law in line to the throne, william and kate, a massively popular. so if charles continues to be

anna: charles is the longest ever king and waiting in the oldest person to ascend to the british thronedo you think his reign will impact the monarchy itself? >> you are right, the oldest king to ascend the throne and it will be a different rain. we will expect to hear from him. he will make his first address to the nation potentially today. that will be a hugely important moment in setting up what soto king he will be. the queen's words about duty and dedicating her life have been repeated down the decade and so we will wait to hear what he has to say, but we know he has views on a range of issues. his mother kept her little opinions very private, did not make anything known about anything controversial. her son is different. he has been a big champion on issues around the environment for decade and played a leading role in the cop summit in glasgow last year, so we can expect more championing of the cause of conservation for one example. but right now, everyone will be waiting to hear those words from king charles iii as he speaks later today for the first time. francine: over the nex

king charles takes the throne. welcome to bloomberg daybreak: europe. i'm anna edwards. we've been reflecting already on what this means for the country, what this means for the nation. the nation is still waking up in something of a shock today as a result of the speed with which things developed yesterday. just on tuesday, she asked her 15's prime minister to form a new government. things deteriorated quickly from there. the international tributes have been coming thick and fast. manus: they have indeed. justin trudeau. there's a strong bond between the royal family here, the young prince was educated in the united kingdom. king charles iii has ascended to the throne. we mourn the passing of our cherished sovereign and much loved mother. her loss will be felt throughout the country. those tribute have come from the crown prince here. these tributes pouring in. dani: yes. of course, this is my adopted country. joe biden calling queen elizabeth a woman who defined an era. queen elizabeth the second -- queen elizabeth ii is the uk's longest serving monarch. she has died a

king charles. >> yeah. and bianca, if i may interject, it does seem like there is an opportunity here, bianca and anna, for both the new prime minister, liz truss, and also for king charles iii, because the people of the uk, i would sense, i would speculate, want reassurance at this time, given the fact that the queen and boris johnson, have both left the stage. >> there's definitely an opportunity. prime minister liz truss has something which king charles iii doesn't, she's benefitting from having very low expectations, because she enters office with low name recognition. pe that isn't the same for the new sovereign. but what both of those things speak to, jake, there is a sense of rudderlessness. this is a country that has left the european union. this is a country whose longest serving monarch has just died. there's no longer peace on the european conflict. britain is heavily involved in the war of ukraine, and we've had a period of intense political turbulence. so the nation is at a moment where it feels a little bit like it's convulsing and it doesn't know what it is. and that presents opportunities, b

in line got a memorable surprise as king charles iii and prince william came to greet them earlier today. the new king saying his mother would have been so touched. anna stewart has been spending all day speaking to people waiting in the epic queue to see the queen lying in state. anna, how is everybody holding up? sounds like this is almost -- so much reverence going on, but a bit fof atmosphere. >> reporter: yes, and right now looking at the tracker, it says 13 1/2 hours and tonight's weather will be cold. and i can attest to that, it is pretty nippy here in the uk since the sun has gone in. you can see though the queue is moving pretty fast and you are right about the atmosphere. people here are generally quite che cheerful. how long have you been in the queue? >> about three hours. >> reporter: and how much longer? >> i reckon probably another four or five. >> reporter: oh, i think that is being quite positive. are you cold yet? >> getting a bit cold. >> reporter: i won't let you lose your place. how is everyone doing, are you cold? >> we're good. we're moving so it is nice and warm. >> reporter: how are you feeling mood-wise, cheerful? >> mix of

anna, the people in the crowd got a surprise. they saw king charles and prince william shaking hands. they were not anticipating that? >> reporter: it was quite the surprise. seeing messages coming through that the king and prince of wales suddenly decided to greet the clouds near of where the queue begins to send. not here, unfortunately. i am miles away. the sign says it is a minimum 14 hours. the government tracker, it says 1612 hours. unclear just how long it will take. yesterday though as boris was mentioning, 24 hours minimum. so this queue has shortened a little bit since then. it's a very long time for people to wait. it gets pretty cold at night. the temperatures are dropping. everyone is only too happy to join the queue. i met people hours into the queue. they really want to pair their final respects to the queen. they want to be there in person. it is definitely a sense that people want to mark this great moment in history. when we look at royal events, in this case, of course, the impending funeral, people want it to remember. i think lots

anna stuart is with me. let's go through the morning's events. charles was proclaimed king officially by this strange thing as the accession council. >> you don't get more ceremonial and archaic than that it's the first time we've seen it. this is nearly as ancient as the monarchy itself. >> when he's proclaimed and everybody signs on, the proclamation was sent to the city of london where it's done and also going to the national capitals -- >> the four nations where we hope and expect to see king charles in the coming days to see his kingdom, the four nations. that's why it's proclaimed in that fashion. >> why do we still bother with it? >> it's still traditional. there's something beautiful ant the ceremonial traditions of the monarchy. some things evolve with time, some don't. that is one of the oxymorons of the royal family we cover all the time. it's part of the tradition, continuity, and reminder this isn't just a celebrity. this is someone appointed by god. >> and they have a role to play as a constitutional monarch within the united kingdom. if you look behind me, yo

and buckingham palace says king charles and his siblings will vigil around her coffin like they did in scotland. annang? >> hi, ana. the queue, is long, indeed. it takes eight or nine hours for people to get all the way up and see the queen. we're in east london. this is not the back of the queue. it's about a mile from here. and let's try to chat to some of the people. it's fast moving. how long have you been queueing for now? >> we have probably been -- we had to walk about a mile and a half up there. we're walking back again to do the same track. we're probably about an hour and a half now. >> it takes some time to find the beginning of the queue. >> it's not actually labeled up at all. and i don't think the stewards are helping. they don't know what to do, ei either. >> at least you're in the queue now. tell me why it's important for you to do this. >> it's important because the thing is, we don't know anything different. she's our queen. and obviously, when my grandparents came over years ago, it was someone they actually looked up on. and so, therefore, we're just following through because we l

. >> now king charles iii and in the front row there, all of the former prime ministers. anna stewart and max foster, they are at buckingham palace. so glad you could be back with us after that heck of an hour. wasn't it? just what a beautiful display of the prince and princess of wales and the sussexes coming together there at windsor castle and, you know, these ended up not being moments of condolence, but almost like a welcome home, wasn't it? max, tell us more about how this came together. >> well, you know, i was expecting a walkabout from the prince and princess of wales, as the appropriate time for it allowing the king to have the limelight yesterday and gradually introducing other members of family. so i was expecting them to come out today and look at flowers and i was expecting this to be in windsor because that is where they're living at the moment. shortly before this moment, maybe just an hour before, prince william reached out to the sussexes presumably via prince harry and asked them to join kate and william on this -- to go and see the flowers and the tributes

right now is live pitches inside westminster, hall, king charles, his brothers and prince andrew, and prince edward, as well as his sister princess anna, are making their way to the building where they will hold a vigil at the queen's coffin. a similar same played out just days ago as we heard from our correspondent ellen fisher in edinburgh. saint charles cathedral, where the queens and body laid and rested, the siblings. we'll stand for 15 minutes on saturday. so to morrow our local time, all 8 of the queen elizabeth and grandchildren are expected to do the same stand vigil by her coffin. but it hasn't been all celebration since king charles the 3rd became britons, monarch. some had been making that republican use known i protesting name packet found this report. while king charles was addressing both houses of parliament for the 1st time on monday, paris to pull pow's land was outside brandishing a blank myself paper. when he was approached by a police officer, i was holding up a blank sign. why you asked him what he said to me to watch the home. it is you my fancy my salesman right. no play came on a sign that the officer can be h

king charles was also greeted by massive crowds turned up outside buckingham palace. well, cnn correspondents are tracking all of this. annatewart is joining us on the guidance of the queen's lying in state at westminster. first let's start with salma abdelaziz. we'll leave the details to ana as to what's happening in the days ahead. but i think it's really important that we talk about just how busy a period of time this is for britain's new monarch. no time wasted at this point. >> i was dizzy just looking at today's schedule just for the next few hours. you have to remember that their day begins here in london. there are events planned at westminster hall for them. they will be receiving official condolences from both houses of parliament, from the house of commons and the house of lords, and the king will have to respond in kind. then he will go up to scotland and take part in that very important procession that we just heard our colleague nic robertson describe. so yet another packed day. but i think tomorrow is going to be quite a momentous occasion because that's the homecoming. that's when the queen will arrive tomo

anna, who was dressed in a male uniform, took part in the guard for the first time. tomorrow evening, the queen's body will be delivered to buckingham palace. there he will be met again by king charleser with his wife, from wednesday, all residents of london's guests will have the opportunity to say goodbye to elizabeth for 4 days. ii state funeral will be held in monday 19 september. russian musicians, with the support of the ministry of culture and the ministry of foreign affairs of russia , took part in the first ever concert of the g20 symphony orchestra, which was successfully held in indonesia. performers from eighteen participating states from our country were included in the orchestra, artist antonina asked for trumpet players, loginov it is very important for me to perform today in such an amazing line-up of the orchestra with such a huge number of wonderful musicians from all over the world. i really appreciate today's concert today for me it's not a real holiday to be held every year at such events, because it seems to me that music has a tremendous power to unite people artists from all over the world performed masterpieces of classical music, in the open sky surrounded

anna whitelock interestingly said. vest or died, they violently discuss those times, how they treated diana unfairly, there is a lot of talk about the fact that now king charlesme the principle of charles hm, was shown in an unfavorable light. it is because of this situation with diana or will public opinion change or will karl the third gain public support? it might be very tough. we need to meet next time on the topic of how it affects public opinion. this is very cool. will karl the third succeed in changing the public opinion of these young people who watched the same tv series, the crown, using the e method? do it in such a way that he doesn't have any forgiveness for it, yes. what is it to shoot a series that manipulates public opinion in such a way, there is also nowhere to go from here, just like that, and here it seems to me that there is a struggle, well, this one is in this context or will be some new series is less, but still the best series of life and now it's just carla, you have no right to make a mistake, because it is probably negative to the young people who cited it, because it's such a manipulation of public opinion that works, well, let'

. >>> tonight, the secret royal will as king charles iii steps into his role as british monarch he's inheriting billions of dollars in land and royal homes. annaal train when he made -- >> a centuries old estate. it's now a billion dollar plus inheritance. when prince william became the prince of wales and the duke of cornwall, he took on a lot more than titles. he inherits the sprawling deutschy of cornwall estate from his father which covers almost 140,000 acres mostly across the southwest of england. last year its accounts valued the estate at $1.2 billion. and as the new king charles will inherit a lot more. royal wills are not made public so what happens to much of the queen's personal wealth which includes art, jewels, and two royal residences will likely always remain a secret. but the bulk of the royal family's wealth totaling more than $21 billion in land, property, and investments passes down the line of succession. king charles as reigning monarch inherits the crown estate making him one of the richest people in the world. by far the biggest of the family fortune with an estimated worth of $19 billion. the land encompasses vast swat

king charles. particularly as he greeted people at buckingham palace today. i would love to introduce you to my guests. we have annal me why you feel it is important to come to the gates to pay your respects. >> i think difficult to say. the feeling throughout the country is pretty palpable. you can feel it in your bones. no more than when you come somewhere like this to get the feeling from everybody else. yeah, it's a sadness. it is hope for the future. let's hope that is an amazing future. certainly king charles today, made a really good representation of himself. i thought it was absolutely brilliant. and we just want to come down. >> and be a part of it. witness it. it is a big moment in history. and everything will change. there will be a lot of change and i'm sure change for the better. >> thank you very much. lovely to he sue you. have a great rest of your evening. >> reporter: we're going to have this for days now. and i think we'll see lots of grief for her majesty, queen elizabeth. but we'll also see so much love and hope for king charles. back to you, erin. >> thank you so much. >>> "outfront" now, chri

anna, the queen used to say i have to be seen to be believed. what does that mean for the new king? >> reporter: well, i think king charlesy agree on that front in terms of being seen to be believed. it will be interesting, i think we heard about this in his state address when he spoke about how his life will change. and it will be different. you'll know that king charles in the past has been quite opinionated on certain subjects, often controversially so writing letters to ministers. he will want to be seen to be believed now. i think he will put that behind him, and i think he'll be looking to the close members of his family, particularly his son, the prince of wales to help him in that effort. jim. >> all right, anna stewart, we'll all be watching. the whole world will be watching. thank you very much. and coming up, president biden, he plans to attend queen elizabeth's funeral. plus a look at balmoral castle, the scottish highlands where the queen's family felt she was happiest and where she spent her final days as the longest serving monarch in briritish history. my most important kitchen tool? my brain. so i choose

king charles iii, it also raises questions about the future of the commonwealth. the club of 56 countries evolved out of the british empire after world war ii. we are joined by annads and saul dubow, professor of history at cambridge university. talk to us about the fragility or not, of the commonwealth at this point. saul: it is something people have commented on almost since its inception in the second form after 1949. the commonwealth was formed at the beginning of the 20th century, when it was a tightknit group made up of south africa, canada, australia and so forth. it had quite important roles strategically and militarily. after 1949, there was a whole new entrance of asian and african countries. it was really reformed in a context of decolonization. the commonwealth loses something of its strategic objectives, it's a way of redefining a world global community of english-speaking ex-british colonies. it has always been fragile, always looking for a purpose, from the period of apartheid when south africa was excluded from the commonwealth, the struggle for human rights became one of the rallying points of the commonwealth. human rights, development, climate

anna world i was constantly changing. and now, britain's longest reigning monarch, queen elizabeth ii, is dead. she died in scotland earlier today. her son is now king charles iii. fast-moving developments as britain enters a ten day morning period where they were meticulously planning this moment for what we told were many, many years. let's get the latest from greg falco on how those plans are moving. greg feared >> absolutely, neil. you're right. fast-moving events after the sad, tragic news of the loss of queen elizabeth ii. they gathered quickly outside of buckingham palace. officially post of the royal notice, the flag lowered to half mast. even a rainbow appearing over the official residence. the family had gathered at her scottish estate, children as well as grandchildren were rushed to bear to pay their respects, including as he is called now, king charles iii, who said in part in a statement "the passing of a cherished sovereign and much loved mother. i know her last will be deeply felt throughout the country, the rooms, and by countless people around the world." the new prime minister was one of the less people outside of the immediate royal fami

. >> anna, while this is a period of mourning, it is also, you know, a turning of the page. and there are some celebration for the new king. it is official. king charlesii now. so what are people expressing to you about how they are striking a balance of still mourning, and celebrating the life of the queen and now looking at a new era of the monarchy. >> well, i suddenly feel like in the last two to three days we have seen a complete shift really in emotion. because the news first broke on thursday, there was a sense of numbness, of silence, we had hundreds if not thousands of people outside of the palace gates but the more people came the quieter it has got. and there has been tears and more grief. but yesterday i believe when it was king charles walk-about. it was a pivotal moment, we saw people with hope and anticipation and hope at the thought of a new chapter in the history of the monarchy and i think we saw that again today as king charles left the proclamation and came down. the crowds were so thick. and they waited there for hours. and jubilant. really big cheers. and we have had tears and cheers and it is two sides of the same coin. >> and i

king charles as well. >> it's really nice and i really hope the crowd to give charles a chance swiftly. >> the period of natural moaning is not just lifting back. it's also about looking forward. >> anna a buckingham palace and green park inundated with flowers and tributes. i would like to welcome simon the royal horticultural society for ambassador and has designed arrangements for the royal family including queen elizabeth ii himself. flowers selling out across london at present. how is industry going to cope with the demand over the next eight days or so. >> it's quite strange. a lot of events have been canceled out of respect. i think the flowers that might've been decorated are being quickly brushed into shops and retailers. it's wonderful that local shops are being supported by the public as they demonstrate their tribute to her majesty. >> they continue to do so. quite recently. >> i've been fortunate enough to meet her several times of the order culture society. the issue they asked me to design their tribute to the queen. which was still structure with her silhouette with 70 parts of the valley that she revealed to be her favorite flower. i was presented to her for the last

king charles taking their place in the royal procession to a service at st. george's castle. and there we'll see something, the coffin of a british monarch lowered into the royal vault. anna? >> reporter: so we are about midway down the long route. this is the procession, the final procession to windsor castle. so the last opportunity for the public to say a good bye to her majesty the queen and you could see there are just thousands and thousands of people here in. lat five, ten minutes, it is gone quite quiet. you could feel a sense atmosphere now. people were tucked in their picnics but you could hear the tension as people watched the big screen and watch ting to se when the state hearse is coming through. and most of the people have been here since 6:00 a.m. they brought family and friends and marked many royal events in the past. the platinum jubilee. and i think they're hear to pay respects to her majesty but to be here to mark history and it is important to remember that this is one of those moments that people will remember for the rest of their lives. so, a fascinating atmosphere here. i think people will be quite emotional once we see the coffin pass. not everyo
