The young Queen was informed of the news while standing in for The King, who was suffering from ill health, on an official Commonwealth visit to Kenya. In an instant, she had ceased to be Princess Elizabeth and became Queen Elizabeth II. https://t.co/6cWdOYf3se — PolitiTweet.org

Today marks 70 years since Queen Elizabeth II acceded to the throne, following the death of her father, King George VI. Her Majesty was proclaimed Queen throughout the UK and Commonwealth in the early hours of 6 February 1952. 📸 Dorothy Wilding @RCT https://t.co/eBfSmjO8SD — PolitiTweet.org

Upon her Accession, a ceremonial body called the Accession Council met at St James’s Palace. The Council made a formal proclamation of the Accession. However, a new Monarch comes to the throne at the moment of death, hence the phrase, 'The King is dead, long live The Queen!'. https://t.co/EqObSo1Rts — PolitiTweet.org
