Heartbroken to learn of the death of Sir Howard Bernstein, a true friend, mentor and absolute giant of a man. An understated but devastatingly effective leader with unparalleled vision and humility. Our city and all who were privileged to have known him will miss him terribly.
It would be nice if the partisan and hugely bitter British newspaper industry bowed and saluted the BBC. And ceased trying to tear apart an essential part of the fabric of Britain.
Manchester City wishes to express its sincere condolences to The Royal Family following the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Her Majesty’s dedication and service has been exemplary and we join our country and the Commonwealth in mourning her loss.
As the flag is lowered to half mast over Windsor Castle an incredible rainbow appears over the castle, for a few minutes and then just like that it was gone….
God bless #QueenElizabeth, a gracious leader, lady, and our host on return from the moon. On behalf of the Apollo 11 crew, Godspeed and God bless the Royal Family. Sincere condolences.
The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon.
The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.
The Queen’s death is one of the defining moments in the life of all of us. And her life of service is a lesson to all of us too. Thinking not just of her and her family, but of my mother, born in the same week as the Queen, with the same name, who adored her. RIP Elizabeths
