Only two days before the official funeral of Elizabeth II. This Monday, September 19, 2022, all eyes will be on London and Westminster Abbey, where a state ceremony will be organized, in the presence of major political leaders and other royal families, for a final farewell to the Sovereign. In the meantime, the queen’s coffin still rests in Westminster Hall where admirers of the Windsor clan (including David Beckham) have until Monday morning, 6:30 a.m. local time, to pray over the remains. Some have to wait up to 24 hours to reach the establishment.
If the public is ready to do anything to say goodbye to the Queen, King Charles III and Prince William continue their duties as the new King and Prince of Wales. After thanking the authorities and the police for their work and their intense investment in this very special period, father and son wanted to meet the many anonymous people stuck in the huge queue of several kilometers.
They were very grateful for their gesture. However, not everyone is unanimous about the king’s efforts. During his visit to Wales the day before, a Briton did not hide his displeasure at having to pay for the round trips of the Crown when he struggles to heat his house. The country is indeed experiencing a serious energy crisis. Faced with his criticisms, Charles III did not drag on, visibly annoyed by his remark.
