I think the only changes will be tears in the Royal bathroom. Charles's will never be as loved as his mother was so his royal tears will be falling. Cheers!
(I gasped a bit when I first heard of her death today.)
Deaths are challenging for all of us. It matters not if people are famous, of celebrity status, or people in power, changes are involved, for sure. Death challenges all of us.
Trouble is, there are several models of a new constitution waiting in the wings, but none have been published. We're in the dark about what the constitutional reformers and would be Republicans want to achieve.
Personally, I wouldn't vote for a Republic unless I knew it included significant improvements to our Constitution. And I think everyone should have a right to be involved in the process of deciding what those would be. Yep, I acknowledge there'd be loads of argy-bargy before getting a consensus, but that's exactly what a functional democratic process needs.

They tried that, but it needs to be led by somebody who DOESN'T have a vested interest in maintaining the status quo. Little Johnny was a staunch monarchist, so he torpedoed the convention and subsequent referendum by loading it with irrelevancies.
All our new coins will have a new face on them. New King and queen consort, not Queen.

I would imagine not many. Charles III will probably be more open with the public about what goes on within the monarchy and its ceremonial roles. He's likely to abstain from expressing any personal views about politics. But he might gently foster the idea that dealing with climate change needs to become a bipartisan issue.
