Queen Elizabeth's funeral has reportedly banned one thing

Those who have been given the honour to attend the Queen's funeral will apparently have to forego one specific thing that's been banned as she is laid to rest.

World leaders have also been told they cannot use private cars or helicopters to get around, but will be transported to the funeral on coaches from a site in west London.

Admittedly I can't quite imagine Biden sliding into a budget seat on British Airways to make it across the Atlantic, but then again, with all the focus on tracking private jets recently maybe he at least considered the idea.

Admiral Sir Tony Radakin, the UK's Chief of the Defence Staff, said before the funeral that 'enormous' planning has gone into the event, with 6,000 military personnel taking part in the procession and more than 10,000 soldiers, sailors and aviators involved to monitor the events around London on the day.

“We have the plans and now we have to execute them and there’s lots of brilliant people that are enabling that and it’s coming together as well," he said.

“So the army the Royal Navy, the Air Force, but also our civil servants, and we’re helping other people in London, the emergency services, some of the volunteers as well, and so that this is a sombre occasion, but it’s done with the utmost respect and also affection.”

Following the service at Westminster Abbey, the Queen will be buried at St. George's Chapel in Windsor Castle.
