From The Scottish Sun...

The Scottish Sun says...

From Buckingham Palace...

I am deeply saddened by the news that Her Majesty the Queen has passed away today.

I would like to pay tribute to Her Majesty’s long and dedicated service to our country. Her Majesty championed great causes throughout her reign- including graciously supporting my campaign for cancer research in a foreword to my 2002 cookery book 'Favourite Recipes of the Raj'.

At this time of national mourning, I would like to send my thoughts and condolences to the Royal Family.
