A committee in Scotland is set to discuss the possibility of creating a memorial for the late Queen Elizabeth II, as announced by First Minister John Swinney. This initiative comes in light of the recent plans for a national memorial at St James’s Park in London, which were revealed by the Prime Minister. The discussions in Scotland aim to honor the Queen's legacy and ensure her contributions are recognized across the UK. As the second anniversary of her passing approaches, the sentiment among the Scottish people is one of remembrance and respect for her 70-year reign. Sir Keir Starmer emphasized the importance of the London memorial, stating it would ensure the Queen is 'never forgotten.' Swinney expressed his thoughts and those of the Scottish people are with the King and the royal family during this time of reflection. The potential memorial in Scotland would serve as a tribute to the Queen's impact and connection with the Scottish community, further solidifying her legacy in the hearts of the people.
