The King’s official job is to protect faith “within the multi-faith nation”, under a newly published palace definition of the monarch’s role.
The King, who is Supreme Governor of the Church of England, will “protect the space for Faith” under a redrafted job description from Buckingham Palace.
Published in the annual review of the Royal family’s finances, the Sovereign Grant report 2025-26, it changes the description of the King’s role as “Head of Nation” from last year, when he was the “Head of the Church of England and Defender of the Faith”.
This year it goes further to specify: “His Majesty is Supreme Governor of the Church of England and protects the space for Faith within the multi-faith nation.”
Before the King’s coronation, there was debate over whether the King would choose to be “Defender of Faith” in the plural, rather than “the Faith” as his Christian ancestors had been. In the event, he chose the traditional wording.
But he has made interfaith dialogue one of the cornerstones of his working life, both as Prince of Wales and now as King. He speaks regularly of the Abrahamic faiths and undertakes engagements with the Jewish, Muslim, Sikh, Orthodox, and other religious communities in Britain and around the world.
The late Elizabeth II’s job description, as defined in the Sovereign Grant reports of her era, was simple: the “Supreme Governor of the Church of England”. She was also “Head of the Armed Forces”.
The King, in this year’s review, “provides pastoral support to our Armed Forces”.

Chuckie embracing islam.
He’s a commie, marxist, stalinist, etc. too.
FUC....
What an embarrassment to the Crown.
When a strong king is needed, Charles is a wuss.
The moslem tide will sweep him away.
too bad for kingy-poo that Christianity is utterly exclusive, as the king’s own commissioned Bible should have informed him in diverse places and verse. For example in John 14:6 where “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
how the woke king has become a blasphemer of his own supposed faith. ‘Defender of Faith?’ my word that is laughable.
DroolBritannia ..
Claptrap Charlie was, is and always will be useless. Even his pet dog, c’milla, is totally & thoroughly irrelevant. After he’s dead and about 10 years passes, suspect no one, absolutely no one, can remember what this couple did that is significant.
I assume Britain's Jews and Hindus also approve.
Outside of a Christian framework, there is no basis for Western monarchies.
Charles is king because he is the sworn “Defender of the Faith”.
I think he just abdicated.
I hope William has a more Orthodox view, but it wouldn’t surprise me if he followed in his father’s footsteps.
Henry VIII is spinning in his burial vault at Windsor Castle.
I guess his oath as king means nothing. We know what an oath-breaker is worth.

Henry, who broke his own vows of marriage and thus earned him the judgement of Holy Mother Church? That paragon of Christian Orthodoxy? That guy?
Pfft.
CC
Should be chief patient of the mental institution.
So will defend both the murderers and the victims? Does not compute.
This idiot is less than zero.
The clown king.
King C Word
Literally the head of the COE
Just finished watching “Citizen Vigilanty” on X. It’s a call to arms.
QE II must be rolling like a top in her grave!
