Just a few hours ago, according to a number of British media reports such as BBC, Sky News, Buckingham Palace announced that Queen Elizabeth II of has fluctuated in the health of Qiudi Queen Elizabeth II. Although the queen herself did not feel unwell, the queen's The medical team has already launched medical monitoring of the Queen. At the same time, the queen's eldest son, , Charles , and princess Camilla, have quickly arrived at the Queen's Fort Balmeral, Scotland. The Queen's second son, , Prince Andrew , is also on the way to the Queen's residence. Several of the queen's grandsons, such as Prince Edward, also set off for Balmeral Castle. British media believe that although Buckingham Palace said that the queen did not feel physically uncomfortable, judging from the behavior of the princes and grandchildren who quickly set off for the queen's residence, it is obvious that the queen's physical condition is not as optimistic as Buckingham Palace revealed to the outside world. "This situation is very serious, we have never seen it before," British media commented.
Queen Elizabeth II was born in 1926 and is now 96 years old. Moreover, the Queen has had many reports of health problems. In February this year, the Queen was infected with the new coronavirus; in the same month, the Queen canceled the diplomatic reception; in March this year, the British " Daily Mail " reported that the Queen's The health situation has deteriorated severely and I can't even walk the dog. In fact, all walks of life have been mentally prepared for the death of Elizabeth II. In November 2020, the French media accidentally issued an obituary for English Queen that had been written in advance. This can be indirectly shown that many media have made plans and preparations for the death of Elizabeth II. As for the British government, the relevant preparations should be more complete. The BBC has now interrupted the original program and broadcast Elizabeth II's health throughout the whole process. The host is also wearing a black suit and a black tie. This further confirms the outside world's speculation about the queen's health.
Although the Queen of England does not hold real power, once Elizabeth II dies, it will still have an immeasurable impact on the UK. First, the great division in Britain may be inevitable. Recently, the independence movements of Scotland and Northern Ireland have been in turmoil. Scotland Chief Minister Sturgeon clearly stated that Scotland will not become a slave to any British Prime Minister . In the first Scottish Independence Referendum held in 2014, Queen Elizabeth II delivered many very sincere speeches, persuading the Scottish people not to choose independence. Infected by the Queen's speech, a considerable number of Scottish people chose to give up their independence. Once the queen dies, the important totem that maintains the British domestic consensus will disappear, and the independent forces in Scotland and Northern Ireland will obviously grow stronger.
Secondly, the Commonwealth may also collapse. As we all know, Elizabeth II is the head of state of many Commonwealth countries, and Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and other countries all respect Elizabeth II as the head of state. Although Britain's national strength is no longer comparable to that of the Victorian era, relying on the Commonwealth system, Britain can still maintain a very strong influence. In recent years, many Commonwealth countries have been promoting the "de-Angularization" process, and a considerable number of people demand that the Queen of England be no longer recognized as their head of state. Once Elizabeth II dies, this process will be greatly accelerated, and the Commonwealth, which has no real influence, is likely to collapse and completely collapse. The UK's international influence will also decline further.
In short, although Queen Elizabeth II did not hold actual power according to British law, she ascended the throne in 1952 and has been a national symbol of Britain for seventy years, which gave her great prestige. Although Elizabeth II did not have legal power, relying on his huge political prestige, various factions inside and outside the UK still respect the Queen's opinions to a certain extent. Although Prince Charles will likely inherit the throne after the Queen's death, the political prestige accumulated over the past seventy years will not be as hereditary as the throne, but will dissipate with the Queen's death.In addition, Prince Charles has had a long-term bad reputation, and his political capabilities are quite limited. He is not as good as a ruler. Even if he ascended the throne, he cannot restore the majesty of the British royal family.
Elizabeth II was born in 1926, when Britain was the world's leading empire. Her aging and departure also symbolizes the collapse and collapse of British hegemony in a sense. A person will eventually die, and an era will eventually come to an end. The death of Elizabeth II may symbolize that Britain's era as a world power has come to an end and the afterglow of the empire has completely disappeared. The current economic situation in the UK is extremely severe and the independence movements in various regions are surging; in terms of diplomatic relations, the UK is at the same time with Russia, China, and EU, and even the United States threatens the UK. If it does not comply with the Northern Ireland Protocol, it will be suspended. Free trade negotiations between the United States and the United Kingdom. Under such complex circumstances, if Elizabeth II dies, it will only put Britain in a more chaotic and turbulent situation.
