Global Hotspot

Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom passed away on the 8th at the age of 96 . The longest-reigning monarch in British history and head of state of the 14 member states of the British Council, the Queen's death not only revived the Scottish independence debate, but also prompted many ex-colonial countries to follow Barbados' example in abandoning the monarchy. The catalyst for this is the Caribbean island nation of Antigua and Barbuda, the first to announce that a referendum is expected to be held within three years to restructure into a republic and no longer have the British monarch as the head of state. Jamaica also intends to follow suit.

However, in the 70 years and 214 days of Queen Elizabeth II's rule of the United Kingdom, there have been many historical junctures that are enough to separate the United Kingdom from the world. Although the Queen as a virtual head of state should only have symbolic power, she can always take advantage of this To make a substantial change, please see the Queen's story brought by walking around:

out of gender

According to the latest report released by UN Women, if human beings do not do more, at the current rate of progress, it will take nearly 300 years to achieve the gender parity of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Target.

For example, the report estimates that it will take at least 286 years to close gaps in legal protections (such as women's rights to freedom from violence) and remove discriminatory laws (such as in marriage and family). It will take 140 and 40 years respectively to achieve gender equality; and under the crisis of the epidemic, war, and climate change, women's reproductive rights have suffered a setback, and the gender gap is continuing to worsen.

I can't be the only one who knows

After the death of Queen Elizabeth II, the eldest son, Prince Charles, officially ascended the throne as Charles III. In addition to the change of the national anthem from "God Save the Queen" to "God Save the King", the most intuitive changes for the British people also include, The Royal Mint will mint coins with the likeness of the new king, gradually replacing the 29 billion coins in circulation bearing the Queen's face.

Queen Elizabeth II first appeared on a coin in 1952, a year after her accession to the throne. The mint has historically used five versions of the Queen's portrait. Although the ages are different, the common feature is that the queen faces the right; according to the practice since the 17th century, The new monarch is usually facing in the opposite direction than the previous one, so we can reasonably guess that the new coin bearing Charles III is likely to face to the left.

In 1960, Queen Elizabeth II became the first British monarch to appear on a banknote, and there are currently more than 4.7 billion banknotes in circulation. With the whole of the UK still in a period of mourning, news about the new face of the coin won't come out so soon.
