“After a full day yesterday, Her Majesty has this afternoon accepted doctors’ advice to rest. This means that the Privy Council meeting that had been due to take place this evening will be rearranged,” a Palace spokesman said.
In taking rest, The Queen Elizabeth II has postponed a key virtual meeting with her Privy Council which is a body formulated with senior politicians acting as Her Majesty’s official advisers. During the gathering, Liz would have taken her oath and new cabinet minister would have been sworn into their roles.
Liz is the 15th Prime Minister to be appointed by the Queen in her long 70-year reign and is the 56th Prime Minister sworn into the UK.
