I am just watching a repeat of the Coronation. The bit about swearing allegiance to him and his heirs and successors. Absolutely not.

Well they actually cost you £1.25 last year!! If you didn’t have to pay that don’t be spending all that £1.25 in one shop.

Of course! I feel it’s our duty to support our new King any way we can.

Although I like tradition allegiance is an outdated term with undertones of bowing to the superior so no I won't do that.

In contrast I like curtseying as I think of it as being fun so I'm contradicting myself!

Fuck to the no.

But I did mortally offend my MIL by saying what I really thought about it.

No what would be the point - even if you were so inclined his position is pointless.

Have you thought about how you can fulfil that obligation - what ever way you can sounds good! deep and meaningful - what are you planning?

Maybe not posting anti-monarchist sentiment is supporting the new King.

Perhaps you need to watch again so that you catch the bit where the Archbishop of Canterbury says that it is optional.

It isn't unreasonable to fail to participate in an entirely optional activity

Sparklybutold · 08/05/2023 23:28

It really doesn't matter what us plebs think.

UWhatNow · 08/05/2023 23:35

No one cares if you did or didn’t. Just enjoy the pomp and be glad we have a constitutional monarchy instead of some corrupt elected bod for whom nobody would camp out for a week or fly in from the four corners of the earth to see crowned.
