    Enjoyed watching the pomp and circumstance of the crowning on BBC. Thank you for paying for those who contributed.

    I accidentally stumbled across the highlights this morning on TV. Charles looked 'old' and infirm. maybe not long before the next one (somebody named Edward, or something) will need to be polishing his crown, I think.

    What an embarrassing spectical, still shows the Yanks that the UK can be even more madder and eccentric than they. Anyone see the Daily Heil I mean Mail, their readers and I use that term very loosely must have got a hard on with all the pics of knob heads lording it up at the poor taxpayers expense.

    Charles is nearly as old as Keith Richards, some question maybe it's a double.

    Anti-coronation protest leader hits out at police over arrests.

    Good job this weren't the Chinese police, say in Beijing or we'd hear no end to them having no rights. Would have been more fun to see flying eggs etc.

    The UK has been going down the drain - especially under the Tories - and is now a Police State. A few days before the coronation of an unelected king and his ***** the government rushed forward laws to allow police to stop and arrest people who they 'think' might be going to protest (1984 was late but it's here now)! I saw photos in newspapers showing the police confiscating (stealing?) banners containing a non-offensive message - this is real suppression of the truth, so that only one argument can be heard and that is the one of the ruling class. But you get what you deserve and the public has been manipulated into accepting this.

    Charles is 74 while Pres Bidet is 80. I doubt any spectacle put on by King Charles and the Brits can possibly be madder and more eccentric than Bidet and the daily laughs he provides.

    It's my understanding that kings are not elected.

    And Trump is 76 with his orange face even more stupid looking than Bidet and his stumbling accent.

    I thought the entire event was a cross between The Wizard of Oz, Charlies Chocolate factory and Return of the Mummies! Huge waste of time Money and grossly pretentious spectacle of greed and wealth. I was waiting for Carmella to say (LET THEM EAT TWINKIES)
