Queen Elizabeth II: I can’t see the fuss about VIPs getting the bus – Ardernon September 18, 2022 at 9:25 am

New Zealand’s PM says “it makes sense” that dignitaries attending the Queen’s funeral should share transport.

“It makes sense” for visiting dignitaries to be taken to the Queen’s funeral service on buses, New Zealand’s prime minister has said.

Jacinda Ardern, speaking on the BBC’s Sunday programme, will be at Monday’s service along with 2,000 other guests including foreign leaders and royalty.

She told Laura Kuenssberg it was not unprecedented for such large events to use shared transport.
