God Save the Queen becomes God Save the King - theold - 09-09-2022

According to British media, "God Save the Queen", which is sung as the national anthem, will change the "queen" part to "king", and the pronouns in the lyrics will also be changed to indicate men. It is said that it will return to the lyrics of Queen Elizabeth's father George VI era for the first time in 70 years.

 New banknotes, coins and stamps will also be issued with the portrait of Charles III. However, it is expected to take some time, and the Bank of England issued a statement announcing that "current banknotes bearing the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II will continue to be legal tender."

Heard British passports have to be reissued as the page of the Queen will be replaced with the face of the new king.
