Statement on the passing of Queen Elizabeth II

We are deeply saddened to hear of the death of her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II. In celebrating her life, we are given the opportunity to reflect on her remarkable legacy.

She has shown tireless service to the United Kingdom. She has sought to promote unity and pride in our great nation. And she has committed her reign to improving the lives of millions of people across the UK and around the world. Through this service, she has provided leadership and comfort to all of us, including through times of distress and turmoil.

The European Movement joins the United Kingdom, and the rest of the world, in a collective period of mourning. As a mark of respect, we have paused all campaigning until further notice.

Lord Andrew Adonis
Chair - European Movement United Kingdom
