National life will be put on hold Sean Coughlan Royal correspondent
After the sombre news from Balmoral, much of national life will now be put on hold in the days ahead.Television schedules will be cleared to reflect the scale of the historic moment. MPs will pay tribute to the Queen and will take an oath to King Charles. Flags will be lowered to half-mast on official buildings, there will be church bells tolling and gun salutes. Local and national organisations and charities will organise their own ways to pay their respects, with commemorative events and books of condolences.This will all lead up to the state funeral of the Queen, which is expected to take place in the next two weeks.The tone of public life might feel like a national pause for thought, with people considering their own memories of the Queen’s long reign.That doesn’t mean it will be a complete shutdown. Public transport and public services will continue. Schools, shops and businesses will stay open, at least until the day of the state funeral.But even if business carries on, it’s unlikely to be business as usual.
Archbishop’s prayers with the King and the Royal Family
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, has said in a statement that his “prayers are with the King and the Royal Family”.
As we grieve together, we know that, in losing our beloved Queen, we have lost the person whose steadfast loyalty, service and humility has helped us make sense of who we are”As we grieve together, we know that, in losing our beloved Queen, we have lost the person whose steadfast loyalty, service and humility has helped us make sense of who we are”He added that the Queen leaves behind a truly extraordinary legacy “that is found in almost every corner of our national life, as well as the lives of so many nations around the world, and especially in the Commonwealth”.
The archbishop says he met her on many occasions. He paid tribute to her “clarity of thinking, capacity for careful listening, inquiring mind, humour, remarkable memory and extraordinary kindness”.

A sea of people now stands outside Buckingham Palace following news of the Queen’s death.Church bells ring out in nearby Ballater
As the news came out about the death of Her Majesty the Queen at Balmoral, the nearby village of Ballater fell silent. The only sound came from the church bells ringing out of Glennuick Church in the centre of the village. Passers-by stopped in their tracks and bowed their heads in an act of remembrance.This is a place used to seeing members of the Royal Family, a place which protected them and respected their privacy.
One woman said that while the Queen’s death was sad, Balmoral was the best place for it to happen because Her Majesty loved it here.
Queen Elizabeth II’s reign saw the world change dramatically but she remained a constant presence in the lives of the people of the UK and Commonwealth.
Formal notice of Queen’s death placed outside palace
This evening two members of staff posted the formal notice of the Queen’s death on an easel on the railings of Buckingham Palace.
The notice says:
“The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon.”The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.”
We’ll treasure the Queen’s life of service – Labour leader
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has paid tribute to the Queen, describing her as a “remarkable sovereign”. In a statement he said:
“It is a deep, private loss for the Royal Family and all our thoughts are with them at this time. The nation shares in their grief
“We will always treasure Queen Elizabeth II’s life of service and devotion to our nation and the Commonwealth; our longest-serving and greatest monarch. Above the clashes of politics, she stood not for what the nation fought over, but what it agreed upon.
As Britain changed rapidly around her, this dedication became the still point of our turning world. So as our great Elizabethan era comes to an end, we will honour the late Queen’s memory by keeping alive the values of public service she embodied.As Britain changed rapidly around her, this dedication became the still point of our turning world. So as our great Elizabethan era comes to an end, we will honour the late Queen’s memory by keeping alive the values of public service she embodied.
For seventy years, Queen Elizabeth II stood as the head of our country. But, in spirit, she stood amongst us.
Charles finally achieves his destiny
For Charles, there will be conflicting emotions. There will be great sadness, that he refers to in his statement, for the loss of his mother.But also, this is the moment he finally achieves his destiny. He is the oldest and longest-serving heir-apparent in British history. He will be the oldest person, at 73, to become King in British history.Charles III will know this is a challenge – to step into the role successfully occupied by Elizabeth II for so many years.He has had a long time to think about this, he hasn’t spoken about it – because it wouldn’t be appropriate. The only clue he has given, is that he fully understands the role of monarch is very different to that of the Prince of Wales.He will reign in his own way, but within the constraints of the constitutional monarchy.
BREAKING: New King will be known as Charles III
The new King will officially be known as King Charles III, it has been officially confirmed.
Scottish and Welsh First Ministers send deepest condolences
The first ministers of the devolved nations of Scotland and Wales have paid tribute to the Queen, sending their condolences to the Royal Family.Scotland’s First Minister Nicola Sturgeon tweeted:
The death of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth, is a profoundly sad moment for the UK, the Commonwealth and the world. Her life was one of extraordinary dedication and service. On behalf of the people of Scotland, I convey my deepest condolences to the King and the Royal Family.” from Nicola Sturgeon
Welsh First Minister Mark Drakeford said that he was “incredibly sad” to hear of the Queen’s death.
As our longest-reigning monarch, she firmly upheld the values and traditions of the British Monarchy. On behalf of the people of Wales, I offer our deepest condolences to Her Majesty’s family during this sad time.” from Mark Drakeford
Millions will feel a sense of personal loss
This news is, for the Royal Family and the nation, an absolutely massive moment – the moment so many people have dreaded for so long.It is a moment of great solemnity, and national sadness.It’s really hard to fully take it in. It’s no great surprise given Queen Elizabeth’s age, but nevertheless it is a moment of very considerable shock that she has died.
Millions will feel a sense of personal loss, and many will find it rather disorientating.It is not just the death of the longest-reigning monarch in British history, it is the end of one of the most remarkable reigns in the more than 1,000-year history of the British monarchy.It is a reign which will be remembered and talked about in years to come.
God save the King – Truss Prime Minister Liz Truss says Queen Elizabeth II leaves a “great legacy”.
“Today the Crown passes, as it has done for more than a thousand years, to our new monarch, our new head of state, His Majesty King Charles III.” With the King’s family we mourn the loss of his mother and come together. “We offer him our loyalty and devotion, just as his mother devoted so much to us for so long. “
She finishes her statement saying it is “the passing of the second Elizabethan age”.Truss concludes by saying: “God save the King.”
A huge shock to the nation and the world – Prime Minister Truss
Prime Minister Liz Truss has been speaking outside Downing Street. She said “we are all devastated” at the news of the Queen’s death, which is a “huge shock to the nation and the world”. She describes the Queen as “a rock on which modern Britain was built”, adding: “Britain is the great country it is today because of her.” She said the Queen was a personal inspiration to her as well as many Britons.
“Her devotion to duty is an example to us all.”
The new King releases a statement
A statement has just been issued by the Royal Family on behalf of Charles, the new King.
He writes:
“The death of my beloved Mother, Her Majesty The Queen, is a moment of the greatest sadness for me and all members of my family.”We mourn profoundly the passing of a cherished sovereign and a much-loved mother.”I know her loss will be deeply felt throughout the country, the Realms and the Commonwealth and by countless people around the world.”During this period of mourning and change, my family and I will be comforted and sustained by our knowledge of the respect and deep affection in which the Queen was so widely held.”
The new heir
Since he was born in 1982, Prince William has been second in line to the throne – that is, two steps removed.
His father is now the King, and he has become the first in line. Prince William does not automatically become Prince of Wales as the title is in the gift of the monarch, but he is now Duke of Cornwall, and his wife Catherine is Duchess of Cornwall. Unlike the Queen, Prince William has known all his life that one day he would become heir to the throne. Behind him in the line of succession is his eldest child, Prince George. The nine-year-old is now second in line to the throne.
