(NewsNation) — 1000’s crammed the streets to mourn the demise of Queen Elizabeth II on Monday, and the crowds have been crammed with a number of generations of Britons.
That each younger and previous got here out to pay their respects to the queen is indicative of the “unimaginable” cultural influence she had on society, stated Charlie Lankston, an assistant editor on the Day by day Mail.
Lankston was joined by Notre Dame historical past professor Colin Barr on Monday as panelists of “NewsNation Prime,” the place they examined the legacy of Elizabeth. Whereas some within the youthful generations could criticize the monarchy, Monday’s mourning confirmed that the opportunity of abolishing it was “the furthest from anyone’s thoughts proper now,” Barr stated.
