Centre for London response to death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth

Following the passing of Queen Elizabeth II, Chief Executive of Centre for London Nick Bowes said:

“This is a day of sorrow for millions of Londoners.

For over seventy years, the Queen has been a symbol of the city to millions of people around the world.

Her reign spanned a period of dramatic change for London, from emerging out of the ruins of the war through to its transformation into a modern global city that many across the world look to as a beacon of tolerance and hope.

London stands ready as the focus of the coming period of national mourning.”
