LONDON, September 9. /TASS/. Charles III will be formally proclaimed King of Great Britain on the morning of Saturday, September 10th. As follows from a statement released by the Buckingham Palace, the Accession Council will meet in session at St. James’s Palace in London on Saturday at 10:00 local time (12:00 Moscow time) to proclaim the son of Elizabeth II as the UK’s new ruler.
First, the Privy Council, an advisory body under the monarch, will meet in the main chambers of the palace. Its members will announce the accession of Charles III to the throne, although in fact he became king at the moment his mother passed away. Then the successor of Elizabeth II will join his council to conduct the meeting. According to a three-century-old tradition, His Majesty will take a single oath relating to the security of the Church of Scotland (such was the condition of the Anglo-Scottish Union of 1707). The oath concerning the Church of England, of which the British monarch is the Supreme Head, will be pronounced later in the Parliament building.

Me too. I was expecting George VII.
My gov’t angers me enough that I am taxed to support them, but they so serve a sort of a purpose, at least. The “royals” are figureheads” as I understand it . It would pi$$ me off to support them.
“Taxed and how! All to support a bunch of inbred lay abouts who have ‘’royal blood’’.”
You need a lesson on English history.
I think his pledge is to be “Defender of Faith” without “the”, as in not be an exclusivist in favor of the Church of England he is, technically, head of. It’s all this woke diversity stuff.

Yes. Defender of faith. That’s what he’s said in the past. Not Defender of The Faith.
Which to my mind means he’s not King.
Yep
Oh my, and it was pretty much “Good luck in California, Harry and Meghan”
I believe she was known as Lady Horseface. IIRC, the arrangement for Charles to marry her, was that when HM Queen Elizabeth II passed away, he would become King and Horseface would become ‘Princess consort’. I hope they stick with that and do not call her ‘Queen’. ‘Queen Horseface’ just doesn’t roll of the tongue.
I am familiar with English history and they most certainly are “inbred layabouts”.
I don’t care about these privileged royals.
I don’t care about these privileged royals.
He didn’t bother to use their titles either.
Free Ulster!
Of all crazy things that came to mind, Ozzy was fixing to “move back home”.
I wonder if this will change his plans.
Two generations of my family damned near lost their lives in two world wars fighting for the Brits so please , don't tell me about the Brits, over all I'm not too fond of them.
I swear I’ve already seen the phrase “Queen consort” being used.
*gag*
Camilla ain’t no Eva Braun.
;D
LOL!
