Officials are drawing up new plans for the Queen in a major break from tradition as the monarch continues to suffer from mobility issues.
In a surprise turnaround, the new Prime Minister could be appointed by the Queen at Balmoral instead of Buckingham Palace.
The Queen is on holiday at Balmoral and due to the 96-year-old’s frailty the answer could be to unveil Boris Johnson ’s replacement at her Scottish retreat on September 6.
