Following the passing of Queen Elizabeth the II The Intermediary will cease publishing until Monday.
As the nation mourns the passing of the monarch, who was a mainstay of many of our lives, we appreciate that the focus of attention may be elsewhere.
While some of our readers may not be monarchists we feel it appropriate to take a pause. As a sign of respect and our deep affection for the monarchy, and indeed the former Queen herself, we, as will many, take this moment to reflect on her dedication to the country.
The UK has not only lost its monarch but a family has lost its mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.
Our thoughts are with her family.
