Worth noting that the Royal Standard was not flying at Balmoral earlier this afternoon. When the BBC zoomed in on the flagpole it was the Lion Rampant. This only flies at Balmoral (and at Holyrood) when the monarch is *not* in residence.

My theory … she’s already gone, and they’re waiting for all the family to assemble before announcing it.

(As there is always a monarch, the Royal Standard would be expected to be hoisted as soon as Charles arrived).
