On September 9, 2015, the Queen became the longest-reigning monarch in British history. And after that she stayed on the throne without 1 day for 7 years. UNIAN told what was the life of the queen, who led the state for 70 years, and what was her position towards Ukraine.
The British flag is flown at half mast at Buckingham Palace. A 10-day mourning has been declared in the country.
It is expected that the official proclamation of Charles as King of Great Britain will take place at St. James’s Palace in London as soon as possible.

Here’s a thought : any country can apply to join the British Commonwealth. It is not necessary to have an imperial connection.
It would be a good idea for Liz and Chas to suggest to Zel that an application to join the commonwealth would be looked on favourably.
Such a move would cement the growing friendship between our two countries. It would also open up many new markets for Ukraine.
Any thoughts?
Maybe if they demolish Heathrow and start over 😉 I hate that place.
Nuke it from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure!
