is like a family member is gone. she was the very spirit of great britain, and that spirit will endure. the fact that today we can see with such confidence, got to have the king, is a tribute to him. but above all, to elizabeth. whatever maybe your background or believes, i shall endeavor to serve you with loyalty, respect, and love, as i have throughout my life. . good morning. it is saturday september the 10th. i am ali velshi in new york. my colleague chris mention is in london. co-hosting with me there is a full schedule of events regarding the secession of king charles iii, is been underway for hours. soon we re expecting britain s new monarch will tour the front gates of buckingham palace to view the flowers and tributes of people after his late mother, queen elizabeth the second since her death on thursday afternoon. upon her passing, king charles immediately became the new head of state and sent into motion a well coordinated series of formalities, and events,
now. a new kind of government. those things are separate in this country. both of them have to get together to lead this country through this uncertain period. people voiced a real anxiety to me. they are headed into a colder winter. there is an energy crisis looming. there is inflation. just like there is another part of this world right now. they are really hoping that king charles and prime minister trust our steady hands to lead them through. they are missing the constant presence of the queen. as you mentioned, cain s mud and where there is travis and her cabinet. he is also meeting with the opposition politicians. he met with lustrous yesterday. but on means that he is getting down to business. molly, thank you for that. chris, we will be staying with you over the next two and a half hours or so. we continue our special coverage of this. molly, thank you. a closer look at a special relationship between the united states and great britain. chris is going to have an important int
well i think she would be very much a modernize. or i really do think that. and one of the saddest is about the royal family is the risk that we have at the moment of queen charles s two sons, william and harry. the queen queen solve them very much as the face of the future. now william has kicked the box, and he is doing the job that he was born to do. harry has taken a different route. but i follow terry for example to the caribbean a few years ago where the debate about ditching the british monarchy was dominant. and he is not going to change the debate, but he did an incredibly good job. he was hugely popular. people responded to him. they liked the fact that he was a young guy. issues that he talked about were issues that the monarchy hadn t dealt with before. homelessness, deprivation, disadvantaged people, and this kind of thing. so i think the queen actually
the loss of his mother. that he was shaking, hands and that there is at least one woman who kissed him. and we are expecting both he and his new queen consort camilla to come here and to be inside of buckingham palace gates, and to see this huge number of flowers, cards, honestly very heartfelt sentiments. there was someone carrying an enormous bouquet of flowers who i talked to earlier. and a number of them who have written notes there just say thank you. thank you to the queen. and so i think we are going to continue to see that king as he develops this relationship, develops this new role. it is a very different thing. you know, aly you and i have covered many changes in leadership in the united states. and there is something that we talk about how someone who is just a politician, just a member of congress, just a
it was a fantastic moment. it was an important moment for the king. it personalized him. isn t that interesting? that is the way that the public and personal weave together when you are a royal. it is like we always say, they are in a goldfish poll. they know it very well. the first thing that he did was step out of his car, step in history, and greet the people here outside the palace. he realizes that royal power is all about branding. i want to put it in the modern science. one of the points to make, i think it is so interesting. we talk about the fact that the exception council was talked about for the first time. the royals have a long relationship with television. nichols back to the beginning of what we have called moving pictures. queen victoria, after her diamond jubilee, that was filmed with the early cameras in the 19th century.
