The burial ceremony of Queen Elizabeth II cost the British people between eight million pounds and six billion pounds
This figure represents all the preparations before actual ceremony, military drills, the casket, the adornment of the church and above all, the security for foreign leaders.
According to the prestigious British newspaper, The Express, many Britons are questioning the wisdom of such waste as many UK citizens are facing harsh times.
The cost of gas and petroleum are bursting the roofs because of the war in Ukraine and Western economic sanctions against Russia.
The Pond news understands that the American president, Joe Biden, the French President, Emmanuel Macron, Emperor of Japan and the Nigerian vice president were among global leaders who graced the ceremony.
The BBC world news service devoted its broadcast to honouring the Queen.
