The dedicated cleaners who swept the Westminster streets for the procession of the Queen's coffin have received a standing ovation. Crowds of people four-people deep gave council workers a big round of applause as they marched through Whitehall ahead of the late monarch's coffin as it left Buckingham Palace for Westminster Hall.
A video of the heartfelt moment as the coffin was taken for four days of lying in state showed crowds whooping and clapping as a group of 17 cleaners make their way through Whitehall on Parliament Street. Sarah Jane-Sewell captured the moment from her office window, reports MyLondon.
The Parliamentary worker also captured shots of the Queen's coffin as it travelled past her office. After watching the event Sarah said: "I'm not sure I can find the words to describe the emotions I've felt this afternoon. God Save The King."
