Queen Elizabeth II, 96, will appoint a new prime minister of the United Kingdom from Scotland at the Balmoral Castle in Scotland instead of the Buckingham Palace in London over health issues, APA reports citing The Sun.

The queen is going to break her holidays to appoint the new prime minister, Liz Truss or Rishi Sunak, on September 6.

“The Queen has now been advised not to travel … It may not be the best choice to make the Queen travel 1,000 miles there and back for a 48-hour visit when the Prime Ministers can easily get to Balmoral instead,” a source told The Sun.
