 The day after his mother, Britain's longest-serving monarch died, King Charles and his wife, Camilla, surprised well-wishers gathered outside the Parkland Palace in London by getting out of their car to greet them. The following day, his two sons, Prince William and Harry, staged their own walkabout near Whistler Castle to the delight of crowds of mourners with whom they spent 40 minutes shaking hands and chatting. Amid a meticulously choreographed program guiding the succession, such moments of apparent spontaneity have stood out and suggest the lessons were learned after the royals drew scorn from the press and many honor buttons for perceived indifference when Princess Diana died in 1997. In many, many years in the planning, by Monday we'll have over 10,000 officers deployed. The core of that is Metropolitan Police officers, but we've got help from every force across the country and indeed from some forces further afield. Many of the officers will be visible, but there's all sorts of specialists behind the scenes supporting that. And his message to the King today met many of them on his visit to our control centre and the effect on the staff was he met. So, as I say, to meet north of 10,000 and just to give a sense of scale. Meanwhile, the head of London's Police said today, the state funeral of King Elizabeth will be a massive oppression. As Prime Ministers, President and Royals come together on Monday to pay their last respects to Britain's longest reigning monarch. The Queen's funeral is expected to attract hundreds of thousands of people to London streets, echoing other important veins in Britain's history, including our coronation in 1953, the funeral of former Prime Minister Winston Churchill in 1965 and the death of Princess Diana in 1997. U.S. President Joe Biden and French President Emmanuel Macron are among the most expected high-profile guests from overseas who have confirmed they will be attending.
