King Charles III and Queen Consort Camilla were nearly pelted with eggs thrown at them during an official visit to York, England, on Wednesday.

The couple was greeting onlookers in the northern English town when four eggs thrown by a protestor narrowly missed hitting them.

The monarch, 73, did not visibly react to the eggs, which landed near his feet, stepping over the mess as he and his 75-year-old wife continued to greet royal fans.

The crowd, however, loudly booed the move and began to chant, “God save the King.”

Extinction Rebellion activist Patrick Thelwell, who was identified as the person who threw the eggs, was heard shouting, “This country was built on the blood of slaves,” according to Metro UK.

The former Green Party candidate was detained by police and escorted away from Micklegate Bar.

"...who was identified as the person who threw the eggs"

We don't want to assume its gender prematurely, do we?

Title says they were pelted. First article line, “nearly pelted.” Does anybody proof this clickbait crap anymore?

Extinction Rebellion activist Patrick Thelwell, ...

Ahh, the mentally ill contingent. Throw him in the pokey with some hard cases for about 90 days.

“This country was built on the blood of slaves”

Then get the hell out.

If you want to piss all over current people over the past - yeah, it’s too evil for you, so get the hell out. Why are you even trying to save something so terrible?

The man suspected of throwing eggs at the King stood to be the Green Party’s candidate at York local elections, it has emerged tonight (Wednesday).

He is Patrick Thelwell, who stood as the Hull Road candidate at the 2019 elections to City of York Council.

Mr Thelwell narrowly missed out on being elected for any of the three seats in that ward, coming fourth with 626 votes.

Exactly the type that would have done something like this.

With egg & York in the headline I thought maybe a recipe was embedded.

Could care less about this bozo but, that is some seriously tyrannical restraint you’ve got going there.

His Mother, QE2, was riding a horse when a MAN with a gun attempted to shoot Her.

She declined any additional security incident: ‘as the Monarch I have to deal with these things.’

Too bad there were no pretorian guards with halberds to protect the king.

Can’t do that. That might reduce incidents of bad behavior a lot and all over the country.

Best to just hope that the next nutcase doesn’t have a grenade instead of an egg.

Not surprising how people hate King Charles the Turd.
