Queen Elizabeth II is the most important in the United Kingdom. If the Queen dies the nation will take a step back and carry out a detailed process that is planned in advance.
This process includes a special code to be used, in case, she dies. Latest foreign media reports say that the code is ‘London Bridge is Down’.
From the Foreign Office’s Global Response Centre in London the news about her death will go out to the 15 governments outside the UK where the Queen is also the head of state, and the 36 other nations of the Commonwealth for whom she has served as a symbolic figurehead, it is reported.
