I mean, it's pretty inevitable that there will be some staff changes. My mate who worked in Number 10 was always nervous when things shifted as his job was sometimes tied to a particular person - like May, although as it happened he was shifted to Boris's team and then left before he was ousted.
But the timing could have been better and the optics aren't good.
Went up to see the flowers and hullabaloo last night.
4 stars, would grieve again
As Letters said, the optics and timing are not good and could have been much better.
However a lot of these staff are handling things like his charities which he no longer can be involved in as the monarch. These staff surely must have been aware of this when they took their roles and according to some ex employees, their contracts have a clause saying that the contracts terminate 6 months after the demise of the crown unless renewed by the new monarch.
I would suspect however that things like his charities will continue with William and so the staff will likely find new roles with him and i guess many staff who have served the Queen for years will likely move on/retire at this natrual changeover and so staff may be employed again in new roles.
Again though the timing of just 3 days after the Queen’s death is appalling and there is no real defence for that
