Queen Elizabeth II passed away on September 8, 2022. She was 96, and reigned for 70 years, making her the UK’s longest-serving monarch. As the United Kingdom grapples with the loss, and the reign of King Charles III begins, what comes next for the island nation?
What changes will British society undergo? Will the new monarch endear himself to the people? Could more Commonwealth countries now become republics? On this week’s episode of The India Story, Vikram Chandra discusses the potentially rocky path ahead for the UK with Dr Shruti Kapila, Professor of History at University of Cambdrige, and Nicholas Nugent, Former Editor at the BBC.
Watch The India Story with Vikram Chandra, Fridays at 8PM.
