it said the queens coronation took 3 hours .... thats crazy :laugh:

[joeysteele]

Tight lot.
Not to make a new longer Bank holiday weekend.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Good keep the economy going. Id cancel another 2 bank holidays and call them a celebration of work days where we could all go in early and stay late so that will give business a shot in the arm.

Then we can introduce the 1 day weekend once every month. Trial in Eire first to gauge the positives.

Its a Saturday.

Also King Charles is aware of the Hard Times
many are suffering

I think they'll still do a bank holiday - move the early May one to the Monday after and add a bank holiday to Friday

4 days of celebration

The King's staff are set to receive a bonus payment of up to £600 to help them with the cost of living crisis.

The Sun newspaper reported that the bonuses - to be paid on top of this month's salary to workers including cleaners - would amount to tens of thousands of pounds and would come from the King's private income.

Staff earning less than £30,000 will receive a single payment of £600, with staff earning more getting less.

Buckingham Palace declined to comment.

The BBC understands no taxpayers' money is being used and the bonus is being paid from the King's Privy Purse.

This is the money from a private estate known as the Duchy of Lancaster, which covers 18,000 hectares of land. It includes land in areas including Lancashire and Yorkshire, as well as property in central London. The Duchy of Lancaster usually makes a profit of about £20m a year.

A man charged with breach of the peace after the Duke of York was heckled during the Queen's funeral procession will not face court.

Footage showed a man shouting at Prince Andrew as he followed the coffin up Edinburgh's Royal Mile in September.

The 22-year-old was pulled out of the crowd by two bystanders and was later arrested and charged.

The case has now been dealt with "by way of an offer of an alternative to prosecution".

The Crown Office, Scotland's prosecution service, said it was not able to advise what this alternative was but it can include fines or community work orders.

A Crown Office spokesman said: "The procurator fiscal received a report concerning a 22-year-old male in connection with an alleged incident on 12 September.

"After full and careful consideration of all facts and circumstances, the case was dealt with by way of an offer of an alternative to prosecution."

Money donated in memory of Queen Elizabeth is being given by King Charles to a charity helping people unable to pay their fuel bills.

Buckingham Palace has not revealed the amount, but the Fuel Bank Foundation is being given funds donated when the late Queen died in September.

The charity provides vouchers for pre-payment meters for gas and electricity.

Matthew Cole, head of the charity, said it would provide respite from the "energy and cost of living crisis".

In the wake of the late Queen's death, there were financial contributions as well as many letters of condolence sent to the Royal Family.

That money, according to royal sources, is now being handed over to help people who are unable to pay for heat, light and power in their homes.

[bots]

i think we need some perspective :laugh:

That is one area that the royal family is currently taxed on, so by "giving" the money to the people he is reducing his tax burden. The amount of wealth that the king now has means he will never be short of a few bob. He has also slashed the size of the royal household, so all in all, he is probably more wealthy

our king Willem-Alexander did do the same back in 2021 :hee: when he got to meet up with most of the production crew and got to stand on the famous eurovision stage


from May 1st, it is all very festive anyway in Liverpool, all the way until May 14th, with quite a stunning schedule of loads of events


and in light of Charles showing love to Ukraine he really should go on that backstage tour of the M&S Bank Arena

in the general scheme of things, they wont be king and queen for long. It wouldn't surprise me if Charles abdicates within 5 years. I would expect them to quickly ramp up Wills ready to take over.

I think you could be right...

[Cherie]

Not happy with Queen Camilla, think it is disrespectful....why couldn't she just be the consort like Philip....that is a mistake

[Livia]

I am delighted for Camilla. The Queen Mother was a queen not a consort, George V's wife was Queen Mary not a consort. It's only upsetting Diana fans as far as I can see.

I think in view of the Queen being 70 years on the throne its not really appropriate, not really ready for a Queen, and the invitation says the coronation of both of them I thought it was just him was being crowned....its all a bit much given the times we are in

[bots]

I don't think her being named queen will help the cause of royalty and they should care about that

[rusticgal]

Having been a big fan of Diana...it took me a while to warm to Camilla. I think she kept herself respectfully in the background.
However, I do somehow feel taking on the title Queen Camilla as opposed to Queen Consort seems a bit disrespectful :shrug:


The only good thing about it is its going to real piss Harry orf...

[joeysteele]

I'm surprised they've gone this far.
However if it's what he wishes then it's his right to dictate it.
There's no doubt Charles is extremely happy married to Camilla.

For any still strong Princess Diana supporters and sympathisers then it will be a very bitter pill to swallow however.
Then again Charles nor the other Royals really had NO real respect for Princess Diana.
She was in my opinion used to get heir/s to the throne.
Once she'd done her duty that was that.

I just think myself out of respect for Diana's memory and the tragic death she suffered.
Camilla Queen consort, as the late Queen wanted was more than enough.

Selfish of Charlie and Camilla to purposefully planning it to fall on Archie’s birthday, knowing Harry would have to choose and look bad publicly with either scenario, he really is a terrible father

You wouldn’t call choosing to make your grandsons birthday all about you and your ego, selfish and arrogant? How odd

[joeysteele]

Sadly it's now possible all the questioning could be about why Meghan and the children aren't there
Which may detract from the actual reason of the day.

Everything it seems is now on both sides, although absolutely King Charles has had them ALL invited.
However it seems the division is only going to build and never get really sorted.

It is fitting that Harry will be there but I do think it's now a bit clearer , to me anyhow, the person the issue is with is probably Camilla.
There are likely a few issues across the board but I think the big issues may well be with Camilla, Harry and Meghan

For me personally, liking the monarchy and I wouldn't want a republic in the UK.
I think it a mistake to have Camilla crowned Queen.
Even the late Queen only stated she wanted her to be Queen consort.
I don't think her wishes should have been altered.
After all Charles seemed really happy with just that.

With ALL the past history re Diana and her tragic death.
I was sort of shocked really to see that change on the official invitation.
I think it a bad decision after King Charles making a strong start.
Unfortunately.

If I had been Harry however, with all the mess his head seems in at present.
I would have politely declined the invite and stayed with whoever I was with at home.
That would have been the best thing to do
Even moreso if he feels hostility to Camilla.
Who I think is more likely the person he and his wife feel the most disdain for probably.

[GoldHeart]

I didn't realise it falls on Archie's birthday. Harry might aswell have stayed home, it all feels forced as there's clearly resentment.

They are not going to reconcile, the best they can hope for is that everyone now settles down and keep family interactions private.

I also believe that as a couple they would have got a bad reception…I think people held back when they were here for the Funeral as a mark of respect for the Queen. Who knows how Harry will be greeted but as he is viewed as the puppet in the relationship, he might get off lightly…:laugh:
….and of course Meghan knows that.

Great news that Meghan isn’t coming…:cheer2: there was a time when they just HAD to be glued to each other come hell or high water with their sickening ‘greatest love ever above mere mortals’ display. Hmmm....

On the other hand it’s quite sad that he won’t be sharing it with his cousins/aunties and uncles because of all the damage his own parents have caused…

Thankfully due to time differences and it being reported he is only staying for the ceremony I don't think we have to worry ourselves about Harry missing Archies birthday :hee:

[joeysteele]

Personally I think Harry may have been better not to come to see Camilla crowned as Queen too.

Had both stayed away they possibly could have extracted even more for their moderate ostracised situation in describing Camilla's coronation as a factor and stain towards his Mother Diana.
Which they couldn't support.

Because while I know loads and loads of people happy for Camilla to have been Queen consort.
Many I've come across in talking about this are far from happy that she will be coronated as full Queen.
I'm actually one of those too.

I fear the Sussexes have missed an open goal here by Harry attending now.
Really I do.
It would have left a glaring hole in the ceremony to younger people in the UK had both Harry and Meghan not attended.
There's not much love for Camilla among the younger of society, even in those who support the monarchy.

His Father by all accounts.

Blood is thicker than water in this case it would seem and Charles is said to be thrilled Harry is coming. Whatever is going on, he is his Son and Charles it seems is the bigger person and wants his son there. I have no doubt there have been some sighs of relief that Meghan isn't coming. I am sure all parties, including Harry, will probably be more relaxed without her at the Coronation.

Possibly not, but we don't know what his thought process is.

The fact that he is there is making Charles happy and as it's Charles' day, one he has been preparing for his whole life, I think it is right that both his children are present and if his presence puts the focus back on the Coronation and not the relationship between Harry and the family (even just for this day), it can only be a good thing. It is also what the later Queen and Prince Philip would have wanted I am sure.

[bots]

think about family members that get invited to weddings and funerals. Many can't stand the sight of each other, but they do it because its expected of them. This is no different

For me it’s more content for another book or his self pity.

The little rat omid is still putting on his take on the reason’s why Meghan isn’t coming

As we get older we lose the will to fight because it’s emotionally draining and I think that’s how Charles sees it, he asked harry and William who still have the will to fight not to make his last years a misery by fighting

Harry coming to see camilla crowned queen will not make him happy because he blames her.

[joeysteele]

I think it wouldn't have mattered if they'd come as a family or just Harry.
Criticism and reading more into that would have gone on anyhow.
The media in overdrive, looking at body language, who talked to them or if anyone even did.

Where they sat.
Who was beside them.

If I'd been Harry I'd have politely declined.
It's not a place for children as young as theirs anyhow for this event.
It was said on TV this morning, at the late Queens coronation, Prince Charles then only 4 was only there barely a half hour.

It would have become a circus by the media no matter had they all come and sat there not moving or saying a word to anyone.
Ridiculous.

My own personal thinking is Harry has issues with Camilla.
Which is understandable.
Which is why, speaking for only me, if I'd been him I'd have sent congratulations but stayed away.
Let the other Royals and media get on with their speculative negative nonsense.

After his book, his very successful book it has to be said
It actually seems more than a little hypocritical to be there to see the woman who brought deep hurt to his own Mother being now crowned Queen.
Not just Queen consort.
I couldn't have wanted to witness that.
However his book opened up loads of other nonsense and dismay and hurt too to his relatives in the Royals.
Probably a mix of some truths and massive overexaggeration too.
I agree with bots from before, reconciliation now between the Sussexes and the tight Royal circle is now very unlikely.
Even moreso for Harry once he sees Camilla crowned Queen.
Not just Queen consort AS the late Queen DECREED.

She is the wife of a King indeed now, she's not however like previous Queens in that she's not the first wife of a Royal or Mother to heirs to the throne.

I think King Charles made an excellent start to his reign after his Mother's death.
I think maybe even now, although very likely in the future, his insistence Camilla is Queen, not Queen consort will not be welcomed long-term by even many monarchists across the Country.

Good luck to them all however.
I have a feeling even with their wealth, status and power, they'll all need a great deal of luck too.

You haven't a clue. The Monarchy bring much more money into the country than they cost.
- ‘the royals have an unusual agreement with the British government—an agreement that likely makes British citizens' tax bills cheaper, not more expensive.
This is due to a deal originally cut in 1760 by King George III, allowing the British government to reap the revenues from the royal family's vast private property, called the Crown Estate, while giving them their taxpayer-funded stipend in return.
In total, these properties brought £486.9 million, or $671.9 million, in revenue in 2021. In contrast, the royal family's taxpayer-funded expenses, in the form of a "sovereign grant," totaled only $118.5 million that year, thus netting the British government a profit of almost $550 million in 2021 dollars.
Were the monarchy to be retired, this deal would likely end, allowing the royal family to retain the whole profits from the Crown Estate.

i just can't/wont call Camilla her majesty. I think it's a wholly inappropriate term for any of them these days, but referring to Camilla that way is just a step way too far

They’re protesting public events, they’re not blowing up buildings or killing people, they’re telling people where and when they’re going to protest, terrorists don’t exactly announce when they’re going to attack beforehand do they :joker:

We, as citizens of a still (for now) country, have the right to protest, the government have already criminalised certain aspects of our rights to protest, straight out banning and criminalising an entire group because they’re protesting government inaction, would be a little bit fascist

Obviously, you are too young to remember the troubles and the vile IRA terrorists

Warnings were sent before bombings, along with a code word so that the authorities would knew it was genuine.
