A vast majority of people in the UK can't remember a time when Queen Elizabeth II wasn't on the throne and it has bought the UK together, said Mike Buckley, Director of the Independent Commission on UK-EU Relations. "She has brought people together at a time where there have been arguments over Brexit and how to cope with fuel prices," Mr Buckley said. Queen Elizabeth II's coffin was on Monday lowered into the Royal Vault at St George's Chapel in Windsor Castle, bringing to an end public mourning for Britain's longest-reigning monarch.
