Coronation of King Charles 3rd

I’m pro monarchist and believe in the institution and feels it does more good for the UK than not

However, I can’t stand the new bunch.

The Royals are worth it if only for the tourist dollar that they bring. They have no political clout but the pagentry and history give the UK a Higher standing in the world than a small country should have.

The queen did a great job and I think William and Kate would be excellent. There would be much more public celebration. If the coronation was for them then Charles but obviously the hereditary rules is part of the whole set up.

Ordinarily I would agree, but not when millions in this country are starving and struggling to make ends meet.
 
I won't be watching any of it, I will be sat on my throne ( not the bog) watching football royalty in our very own East Manchester Palace.
I had utmost respect for the Queen and it was a sad day when she died. I have absolutely no time for Charles and his partner in crime Camilla.
I would've had respect for him if he stepped aside and let William take over, coz in a few years were gonna have to rinse and repeat the same process when he croaks with the expense that goes with it.

What's everyone's feelings? Mine is one of ambivalence for the event and sadness for the waste of tax payer money in the middle of a cost of living crisis.

Polling shows its the older age group who are going big for this so I should have an interest but can't see it bothering me too much.

Youngsters clearly cannot relate to it at all - could be a defining moment for the Monarchy. Daughter works for a big clothing chain aimed at the younger market and they have been sent bunting etc for the shop and staff area and nobody can be arsed putting any of it up. It won't attract their target customers and at the moment they are busy maximising sales to keep their jobs as the High Street is dying - time spent putting flags up with Chas and Cams on them is time wasted off the sales floor

Well said. That last sentence sums it up. I'm sick of the fucking sight of this lot, they make me sick to the pit of my stomach. And I'm sick of being told they're the embodiment of Britishness and the last thread of pride woven into our national fabric. I'm sick of being told by our mainstream media that we should deify one family because their ancestors slipped out of a select birth canal almost a millennium ago. My late Nana was my Queen, it's my own family I revere and I don't need any fucker to tell me to bow like a lobotomised sycophant to fucking criminals who are quite literally stealing millions from the public purse to enrich their own lives whilst giving nothing in return. I respect Boris fucking Johnson more than I respect Charles, at least he went through ordinary channels of application and hardwork to become the morally bankrupt prick he is today. A week from now we're going to parade a random individual around London in a gold carriage and put a fancy hat on his head, at the expense of taxpayer millions, meanwhile nurses are still fighting for fairer pay.

The whole thing is detestable and if that **** was to ever find himself in my orbit I'd spit at his feet. That's the closest thing to respect he'd ever receive from me.

Afuckingmen to all of that
 
Sorry but if there's anything weirder than worshipping a mediocre, charisma void family, who retain their privileged positions from sheer accident of birth I've yet to hear it. Tell a lie , hearing the Rags going on about winning the Quadruple 3 months ago with 10 Bob Guardiola at the helm might have been even weirder. But only just.

For those who enjoy a bit of historical insight, here is a definitive guide into the answer to the question, How do you become King then? This award winning documentary manages to do what many have tried and failed, that is to weave in the complex relationship between Monarchy and the Political landscape.

That's been stolen word for word from the Labour Party thread in off topic.
