Live briefing: Queen Elizabeth II’s coffin arrives in Edinburgh in first leg of ceremonial journey

After Elizabeth’s death, Britain’s future is uncertain. The queen’s death marks the end of the nation’s second Elizabethan age, and the beginning of the reign of the longest-ever monarch-in-waiting, Charles, who is less popular than his mother. In addition, regional tensions, higher energy costs and an untested new prime minister come at a time of national introspection. “Changes on the horizon have been brought into focus by the queen’s death. Whether welcome or not, they have created a disquiet in the country she led,” Kevin Sullivan and Anthony Faiola write.
