The Queen is under medical supervision after her doctors became ‘concerned for Her Majesty’s health’, reports The Manc.
Buckingham Palace said in a statement that has just been released: “Following further evaluation this morning, The Queen’s doctors are concerned for Her Majesty’s health and have recommended she remain under medical supervision.
“The Queen remains comfortable and at Balmoral.”

A note was seen to be passed to several senior ministers.
Liz Truss has now said: “The whole country will be deeply concerned by the news from Buckingham Palace this lunchtime.
“My thoughts – and the thoughts of people across our United Kingdom – are with Her Majesty The Queen and her family at this time.”
