The lack of enthusiasm for the Coronation

[MamoruHisaishi]

I know this is shallow but I think part of the reason why people aren't enthusiastic about Charles’ coronation is that neither he nor Camilla have movie star good looks plus they're both in their 70s. I bet if both were in their 30s or even 40s, and Charles looked like Pierce Brosnan and Camilla looked like Angelina Jolie, they would have the world fawning over them and their Coronation.

The bear skins on the phalanx of soldiers in the Mall will obscure the view of the fawners camped out in the rain. Not very respectful of their core supporters. Chucking it down in Welling on the outskirts of London atm.

There is a thread on this on AIBU and prole are getting texts from friends abroad

The UK continues to look disgraceful

The Met police tweeted this on the 3rd:

*Our tolerance for any disruption, whether through protest or otherwise, will be low.

We will deal robustly with anyone intent on undermining this celebration.*

Wtf? Undermining the celebration?

So Charles and Camilla are wearing ermine in that gold coach?

And before anyone asks, yes I am watching it. I can hardly talk about it after the event if I haven't, can I?

I particularly look foward to the music

I wanna get excited seeing Charles and Camilla in that gold and black coach, I really do, but all I keep thinking about is how much I'm looking forward to seeing the William, Kate and their kids.

2023. At the top: Two ridiculously rich entitled people actually riding in a gold coach while at the bottom, people going to food banks.

If you made it up in a story it's laughable.

This could all be done with Avatars like the ABBA thing, and we could have preserved the late Queen for eternity. And still done all this stuff with a hologram and AI. Net result everybody happy except Chaz and the rest of them.

Just watching the Sky feed, and they showed the protests live to be fair to them.

Well the chat thread currently running is showing plenty of enthusiasm lol

I thought this was happening Monday 😂😂 see how easy it is to avoid things you’re not interested in/don’t like? I am interested in freedoms being removed because of a wealthy man’s party though

I don't want to annoy others so will stay here in the MN designated protest spot. I've calmed down seeing a good turnout from my people. You are welcome to come by and gloat we have broad backs.

I've got a stake here too! My placard has given me a splinter though

Careful, you might get bundled into a police van….

I wanted to see the crowds for myself

I'm no expert in royal nonsense ( Andrew has swanned in wearing a robe and draped in nonsense - all hail) but that crowd is THIN

Almost as many comments on that chat thread 'watch along' in 3 hours as this thread in 4 days, so jog on guys.

I'm not jogging anywhere lol.

Out they get in their ermine yikes. Maybe Charles has changed his mind on silk breeches

Sickening to see Charles and Camilla in their gold coach

Long stretches of empty spaces on the pavements
I'm sure a royalist will say it's supposed to be like that
That's enough for men

For me

Will that coach turn back into a pumpkin if they stay out past midnight?

Hardly anyone lining the route. Oh dear 😂

So you're actually watching it? 😂😂😂😂

Well I am paying for it so why not…

Hardly anyone lining the route? Are we watching the same coverage? Can't say I would go to the effort but there are loads of people there.

We all know what a disgusting creature HE is though don't we... if you don't,Google him and his views

Yes I am. As I have said repeatedly, I can hardly talk about it if I don't watch it, can I ? But I'm making a good job of cleaning my grouting on the floor tiles at the same time.

It's a bit like the posters who haven't read Harry's book but spend hours maligning it.

Enjoy. You surely will 😂🤣😂🤣
