I thought she was fantastic and like said a role model for everybody and that would put rome. Did she mean i think people have complicated thoughts about monica and royal family and empires and things like that. I think thats okay, but she is like a really remarkable figure. You know, shes been leader of this country for so many decades. 3 at more longer than a lot of people have been alive. The crown has now passed to her oldest son, who will be known as king charles the 3rd. In a statement he said, the death of my mother, the queen, is a moment of great to sadness for me. We more profoundly the passing of a cherished sovereign, a much loved mother.

Weve known for several months that weve been living in the twilight of Queen Elizabeths reign, the epilogue of this 2nd elizabeth, an era. But now that shes finally gone, few in the United Kingdom can scarcely imagine a country without her nave marker al jazeera of Buckingham Palace. All right, jonah hol joins us now. Live from Buckingham Palace in london. A jonah, good to have you with us. If you could just walk our viewers through what the reaction has been like thus far. And how is this very significant and somber moment being processed by the majority of britons . Well let me point out to you, 1st of all that you can probably hear the noise around me. We are in the midst of a sort of construction sides as the sun comes up here on friday morning. Union flags are being put up on the flag post, surround Buckingham Palace scaffolding being built, and so on. The infrastructure going up now to my passing on the queen, but there is Buckingham Palace behind me. Still lift largely as the sun comes up, the epicenter of the marquis of the royal family where the queen spent much of her life. Much of her 70 year reign will be less latterly when she was confined to wins. Accosted during the covert panoramic and confined most recently about moral in the Scottish Highlands where she died, suffering from ill health and increasing mobility issues. The streets a quiet. They were very busy on thursday evening. They will surely fill up again. Not just been down to the gates there speaking to some of the early rises here. I met a man simply standing there looking up at the building, looking at the tributes attached to the fence, his eyes full of tears. He said this was a monumental day for the country. She is a woman, he said, we will never, never, never see her likes her like again and a canadian couple. I met to it here on the holiday. They happened to be here. They rose early from their o tells to come down. They said that weve, weve simply known her all our lives, we sang, god save the queen of school before the national anthem. We all watched every christmas day. Her christmas message broadcasts on national television. So, you know, the queen rain for 70 is the longest, raining moment anywhere, especially the longest training monarch in the 1000, the history of the monarchy here. And in that time, the respect, the admiration, the affection of so many people here and around the world. She wrote steadfastly, of course, till the day of her promise to do in that famous Radio Broadcasts when she 21 and became her to the throne. She said shed reign over this country and its imperial family till she died of. So she did, and that is why we have seen not just in this country, but among its allies, among its former colonies and commonwealth countries, an absolute tidal wave of tributes paid by World Leaders. Politicians asked and present who will have met her, known her, come across her on state, visits that she bade throughout her reign all over the world. And they will come, as i said to this place, Buckingham Palace during the course of the day in the days to carmen, to other royal sides to pay their respects. People will come of course, and express grief, shock, emotion, sadness. Some will reflect on the enormity of the loss of the queen to the life of this country. So much changed in the 70 years since she came to the throne. When it was an empire, no longer an empire, a country now dealing with an identity crisis of sorts, old alignments fractured you. The union itself in question here. And others, of course, may look to the future because with the parsing of the queen is not just the passing of the 2nd elizabeth and age, but the dawn of a brand new one. The age of charles, the 3rd. And jonah, no doubt those who will be coming out of Buckingham Palace and other royal sides to pay their respects to Queen Elizabeth will be wondering what happens next. There is, of course, an intricate protocol when it comes to handling Queen Elizabeths death. How are things going to be playing out over the coming days . Me everything will be finally tuned. Planned to the last inch, a very well choreographed plan. Notice operation London Bridge now goes into action. Indeed, in a moments off, the queens death, a coded message would have gone out across the institutions of state and throughout the Civil Service London Bridge is down. And that would have been the signal upset in trade, the sequence of events that will see the queens body move in the coming days from Balmoral Castle to holy root house in edinburgh where she will lie briefly in state before making her way up. The royal mile in edinburgh for a service, a Funeral Services to giles cathedral in edinburgh. Then her body in its casket will make its way down much of the length of the country. Potentially. We wait for confirmation on the royal train, stopping as well well wishes gather on route. It will come here to Buckingham Palace, to the throne room of Buckingham Palace and then line states in westminster hole for a number of days for the public to pay their respects before a state funeral at westminster abbey. And her final intended in some georges chapel at windsor where her father lives and her mother lives in the deed where Prince Philip her husband, who died last year last april, after 73 years of marriage. His body too, will be moved to live. Besides that, here is john hall setting the scene for us from outside, Buckingham Palace where large crowds of mourners are expected in the coming hours. Many thanks, john tributes have been pouring in from World Leaders as well as people from various walks of life. Us President Biden led the charge hailing Queen Elizabeth as a steadying presence in a world of change. Rosalind jordan hasnt, has more. The u. S. President paid tribute to Queen Elizabeth the 2nd at the British Embassy in washington. And then during a political event, i the opportunity to meet her before she passed since youve been incredibly gracious, a decent woman, the thoughts and prayers, the american people, are the people who United Kingdom in the commonwealth and their grief bidens remarks honored the special relationship between a monarchy and its one time colony, ties routed and cooperation during 2 world wars. In all Queen Elizabeth hosted or visited 13 of the 14 post war president s. These werent gatherings to plan Global Economic or security agenda us. As head of state, the queen was barred from making policy. These were opportunities to reaffirm the u. S. And you case commitment to democracy, civility and human dignity. Former u. S. President s including barack obama bill clinton and donald trump issued condolence statements. And ordinary citizens pay their respects at the embassy, including some who shared the queens affection for corgis. She also helped bring the idea of dogs into the home and show that dogs are not just animals along farms, but also they can belong to in a row pathis and, and be part of be part of a family. I was lucky enough to like see her and like 3 carriage rides. Ah, so even though wasnt someone who is like, present in my life, its still very upsetting to know that theyre gone. But you know, just i think should want to just buy the lot that she loves like spread to her people. So thats, you know, im up here as the flags at the capital and the white house were lowered to half staff. The bells rang 96 times at the Washington National cathedral, part of the global anglican communion attribute to the woman who was both head of the Universal Church and a beloved grandmother figure to so many in the us, rosalind jordan elses era. Other World Leaders have also paid tribute to Queen Elizabeth indian Prime Minister in a render mode. He said he was pained by her death and that she provided Inspiring Leadership to her nation and people. French president emanuel micron has saluted the monarch as a friend of france and said shell be remembered as a kind hearted queen who has left a lasting impression on her country. And on her century, the italian Prime Minister mario doggy held. The queens dedication and spirit of service and chinas president , shes in ping, has offered his sincere sympathies to britain. The queens death will be marked in new zealand with a period of National Mourning and estate memorial service. The countrys Prime Minister jacinta ardor and says its a time of deep sadness for the people of new zealand. The queen has been such a consent in our lives for 70 years. The longer soothing monarch and british history. Over her reign. She has come to define notions of service, charity and consistency. He commitment to her role and to all of us has been without question and unwavering. She is also demonstrated courage, compassion and humor, a strong memory i will have of her as her laughter. She was extraordinary. All right, adrian brown is joining us now. Live from new zealand, capital, wellington, adrian. Good to have you with us. We been talking about the tributes being offered by World Leaders. You are based in china and hong kong for many years. And weve only heard in the past hour from president , shes in ping. Why do you think that is and where things currently stand when it comes to the relationship between the u. K and china . Well, its a relationship. Thats very complicated, complicated, of course, because of differences over hong kong and the situation in sion. Janet and because the queen, after all, had been the sovereign, the ruler of the United Kingdom, a country the china has fallen out with very badly during the last few years. I think thats possibly why it took some hours several hours before chinas leader finally issued a statement. Remember, other World Leaders had been very quick to issue statements, including of course, President Biden. Youd expect him to do that. But the indian Prime Minister was also very quick and issuing statement as well. Let me putin of russia, but it was only sort of mid morning news. China time that we finally got a statement from the chinese government. Its not clear where the president cheating thing is going to sign the book of condolence at the British Embassy in beijing as President Biden has done at the British Embassy in washington. Now, president shooting thing, of course he had met the queen. He was lost in the United Kingdom 7 years ago on an official visit. But during that visit there was a banquet, and king charles made an excuse not to attend that banquet. He boycotted it so i think that gives you an indication of how the new king of, of the United Kingdom and 14 other commonwealth countries feels about the Chinese Communist party. The issue over hong kong is a reminder that, you know, the relationship is, is being tested all the time. You know, in hong kong, flags not flying at half mast. I remember hong kong until 25 years ago had been a british colony. The queen had been the queen of hong kong. But the situation there is you have a chief executive who was formerly a policeman who had to pledge allegiance to the queen who now pledges allegiance to the communist party. And even if people in hong kong wanted to mourn one to hold up the portrayed of the queen, perhaps even to hold the union jack, they would risk arrest on perhaps sedition charges. And in adrian, what is the reaction to Queen Elizabeths death been like thus far . Out of new zealand where you are and also out of australia will i think it in both. Its been a somber and an a sort of mood of, of quiet reflection. I think people had been hoping that the queen would be around for a bit longer because, you know, she has been a constant in their lives for, for almost 70 years. And i think theyre coming to terms of the idea that theyve lost this figure that has always been a part of their lives. You know . Yes, there are a calls. There have been calls in australia, of course, for the country to become a republic. There was a referendum in 1999, but i think those those voices, those detracting voices, will not be the dominant ones. Survey. Weve heard from the australian Prime Minister anthony albanese, who said that greece is the price that we pay for love. The, the australian and aboriginal flags flying at half mast, just as the flags of flying at half mast here in new zealand. There will be a prolonged period of morning in both countries. And i think the, the, the words you hear over and over again in both countries are our dignity and commitment. Commitment. There is sorrow that shes gone. But i guess also gratitude for what she did. All right, thats adrian brown. Live for us from wellington. Thank you so much for breaking it all down for us, adrian. Now, the Queen Elizabeth has died. Her son charles has automatically become king. He is both the oldest and longest serving heir apparent in british history. Lets take a look at what happens next.
