An email containing the Queen’s secret death plans was sent to the wrong recipient. An urgent probe has been launched to get to the bottom of the leak.
Letters and a security pamphlet marked “official sensitive” were mistakenly emailed to a member of the public by a Welsh government official, The Sun reports.
The leak included a letter from a top UK civil servant expressing concern that a news website had disclosed confidential details about procedures for the Queen’s death, known as Operation London Bridge.
The BBC reported that the correspondence was regarding procedures for the death of the monarch, who turns 96 on April 21.
Operation London Bridge are the plans for the funeral arrangements for Queen Elizabeth. What, when, where, etc. How they will do her funeral, who will be invited, etc. She was very upset and angry when Charles said that they should use Operation London Bridge for Princess Diana’s funeral since her death was not expected and funeral arrangements would not have to be coordinated and a service could be held quickly. The Queen begrudgingly obliged and then started to redo her funeral arrangements. She was quite pissed Diana would get most of her funeral ceremony which had been set for over 20 years.
