Daily Mail: Cheers to the King! Newly-crowned King Charles and Queen Camilla are cheered by crowds as they leave Westminster Abbey in the Gold State Coach to head back to Buckingham Palace for lunch... so will Harry be joining? 

King Charles III and Queen Camilla have been cheered uproariously by up to 2million people on the streets of a rainy London today after the historic first coronation in Britain since 1953. 

The royal couple have arrived back at Buckingham Palace where they will wave to crowds from the balcony with working royals before a planned 60-aircraft RAF flypast, which has been scaled back to just just helicopters and the Red Arrows because of terrible weather. 

The King and his wife were crowned in a Christian ceremony that dates back 1,000 years on a day dripping with glorious displays of pageantry. The historic two hour service was marked by several poignant moments including Prince William kissing his father with his estranged brother Harry yards away.

  8. Ugly? People usually get ugly as they get older. So what of it?

    I think Charles has a weak chin. So I guess you could call him ugly.

    Please note that some scientists have commented that a receding chin compared to our remote ancestors made certain sounds for speech possible. So that trait will be selected for. So if it is a useful trait, is it ugly.

    Personally, I do not like Charles. He should have stood up to his parent and married Camilla, when she was single. Plus on policy issues, he is daft.

    A constitutional monarchy is not necessarily a bad thing. I would take one over DEI any day of the week. It is far better for a nation than DEI, identity politician and CRT.

    I do wish that when the men do their military stint they reach higher rank. If they are going to make middling rank or not excel in business or something, the monarchy might go out with a whimper.

    Other than the bank job to protect a princess, Charles' brother, and Meghan, I think the royal family is doing fine. Rich families like other families have their learning curve to cope with the times.

    I was impressed about 2 decades ago when the Thai monarch brought civil unrest or coup to halt merely due to his moral authority. There is something to that. Of course later the heir kind of botched the whole thing.
