In a town full of colours

The Royal family hold a degree of fascination to me for the history and pomp and all the charity work they do. But I don't feel the need to swear allegiance.

I am looking forward to watching it all saturday on the busy train up to london

I thought the French dealt with royals much more effectively.

Not sure torture, abuse & beheadings would go down too well these days to be fair.

A lot of swearing gone on already. £100 million when we are in a cost of living crisis and can't afford to fund free school meals, NHS, youth services...

No, I'll raise a glass to King Charles as I always wanted him to be king but to me one human being is not superior to another and recent events have proven they are just as fucked up as the rest of us.

Because people don't latch onto postives only the negatives. And unfortunately the negatives are widely portrayed in the media to a greater extent then any charitable work the royals actually do

I think people focus on the bad stuff because the royals deliberately set themselves up as our 'betters' but continually show themselves to be our equals.

Many thousands of ordinary people do charity work

Also if they do an 'ordinary' job it's made out to be something special yet millions of people do just that daily with the added bonus of all the admin that comes with daily life like cooking, washing, childcare, bill paying...

Not really. They get paid via the sovereign grant and duchies.

Even if they did though what about ALL charities that pay a salary to the people running them? It’s not as clear cut as a lot of people make out.

I’ve the pro/anti monarchy debate is different and far more complicated.

Paying a salary to people who run charities is necessary, not many people can afford to work for free at a very high level.

In a ball gown because that's how we roll in N. Devon

I swore allegiance to the queen when I was a brownie. I'm not a brownie any more because I got kicked out.

So I'm not sure if my oath still holds... or if it transfers to the king, or if I have to wait for the next queen. Is very confusing.

Plus... I was a bit young for it to be legal, surely.

Completely agree, but I’d argue the work some of the royals do, the time invested, the brand recognition and the publicity they give is equally necessary. That said they don’t get paid specifically for charity work as far as I’m aware.

The royal connection certainly helps. The Princes Trust does great work and the whole family brings attention to important issues.

Ah, swing the Lantern indeed.

"Charity work, paid or unpaid doesn't absolve you of the past.

How much money would they need to raise to erase the systemic violence they committed across the british empire?

Wasn’t aware any of the current monarchy were involved in that? If you start going into past issues you open up a MASSIVE can of worms and where do you draw the line?

Going off your logic we should ALL be held to account for our ancestors past actions. How much money have you raised for charity to make up for your ancestors violence against others?…..you see where I’m going.

It does seem to be a way to get through the horrors of the past. Pretend they didn't happen and raise some prosecco.

Only when they happened to other people, of course

If you’re going down that route be consistent. Apply the same logic to other empires eg the Ottoman Empire, kingdom of kush, Mali empire….it’s a pretty endless list.

Most of the world have committed atrocities against others at some point in time.

As far as I'm aware my family hasn't committed any atrocities. But if I became aware that they had then I wouldn't try and sweep it away like nothing happened. And yes we should all do charity work lol no matter what.

Of course.

And that's their cross to bear.

The atrocities of the British empire are mine, and that's what I'm talking about.

Those other people should atone and make amends, as well.

In the context of mostly British people, I'm looking at the wonderful British history of glorious genocide, theft of land by declaring inhabitants non human, the beautiful taking of children from families, all things that we shall celebrate at the coronation. Hurrah

You don’t think any of your ancestors committed atrocities? Very naive.

When are you going to kick off with the Arabs for their colonising? Or perhaps the Turks or Maories?

Other people can hold themselves accountable - we are in an age of personal responsibility, after all

The British empire gained its wealth - which extends to the standing of the UK today, and the wealth of the monarchy specifically - upon the atrocities perpetrated upon those it conquered. We're all beneficiaries of that.

"But mummy, Johnny Arab did it too, punish him" is just deflecting blame, and is utterly puerile.

I won't be celebrating the heir to glorious genocide.

Oh, so you want to benefit from the pillage and slaughter of other nations and celebrate like it isn't on the backs of millions of people who were traumatised and who need help for the damage that was wrought.

And claim your nation works for good.

I'm not surprised in the slightest.

No, you're trying to claim the moral high ground from an historical position that would make Hitler blush. Hitler didn't succeed in his genocide, after all. The British did.

The King is rightful heir to all of that, and we need to recognise our history in its complicated and ugly glory.

Oh look at those Brits, on the back of the wealth they stole from countless lands, and trying to bury the genocides they were responsible for, signalling their virtue!

Some of those Brits come from African heritage, damn their virtue signalling!

And that makes their actions on behalf of genocidal virtue signallers aaaaalll better, because the colour of your skin determines your culpability, because we're all equal, or something

Damned if you do and damned if you don’t using your logic.

Will end it here as going around in circles, we can agree to disagree….again.

No, you're trying to claim the moral high ground from an historical position that would make Hitler blush. Hitler didn't succeed in his genocide, after all. The British did.

The King is rightful heir to all of that, and we need to recognise our history in its complicated and ugly glory.

My question was will you pledge allegiance, you said you will.

The end. "

"I swore allegiance to the queen when I was a brownie. I'm not a brownie any more because I got kicked out.

So I'm not sure if my oath still holds... or if it transfers to the king, or if I have to wait for the next queen. Is very confusing.

Plus... I was a bit young for it to be legal, surely.

Oh yes I did too!

I promise to do my best serve my queen and something about duty to god "

Ohhhh yes!! I was totally in the cub scouts as a cute little nipper with nobbly knees!

“I promise that I will do my best,

to do my duty to God, and to the Queen,

to help other people,

and to keep the Cub Scout Law.”

God can fuck off.

Her Majesty has departed this life.

And I can’t remember the Cub Scout law but I’ve probably broken it most years haha.

It's a lot like British history.

The glorious British conquered the world (subjugating and denying the humanity of the people they claimed weren't human)

They sent naughty Irish to Australia (after depriving them of food and suppressing their intellectuals)

They were kind to native peoples (smoothing the pillow of a dying race, as they put it, with hard and soft genocidal policies)

I can see why context is uncomfortable, but let's at least be honest. If only for equipping ourselves and our children with knowledge

Take the good, reject the bad.

We do great things which should be celebrated, except when we don't, and that doesn't count because reasons.

When other people try to right the wrongs, then it's not enough or their personal choice, but we shouldn't care.

Hurrah, prosecco and biscuits.

Can we also note that I'm just in it to try and sell commemorative shiz to people because I like money?

Trying to subvert the process for your own ends is fine by me

Social justice is intersectional, after all."

Phew.

I should make some of the shiz now...

It seems like it's a bit of a ploy to try and subconsciously promote the monarchy and get people back on side after all the "turmoil" they've been through.

For us, it's a flat no chance.

We don't hold any allegiance to them what so ever and we won't be starting now

I mean the coronation has to happen, but you’re right, definitely pumped up the propaganda machine.

Wether you want to celebrate or not there’s always going to be big divide. I swore my oath as it was part of joining the armed forces and for me it was a proud moment. I’ve had many equally proud moments becoming a father and being a good dad for one. Also serving my country on military operations to peacekeeping missions from Northern Ireland, Bosnia, Kosovo and Afghanistan I’ve always been proud to represent my regiment and serve my queen and country.

It was my choice and I’ve never asked or wanted respect from others for doing so. I’ll be working this weekend coming and won’t watch the coronation

But I’ll pour a glass of Rum when I’m home and raise a toast to my regiment, my colonel in chief, my country and my king.

Yes this country is built on the back of conquest most nations are. And it was the army and the navy who helped with that conquest. You can’t rewrite history. But luckily being a country that might have built its standing in history and strength through colonialism. It also put us in a strong position to also protect others.

We were one of the first to outlaw “taking people from one country to work in another” it doesn’t allow you to use the S word and stopped and rescued people from “input the word” though the Royal Navy (still doing so today)

Stopped genocide from happening again and again in modern history. From the end of world war 1 to what happened in Bosnia and the balkans. Everyone dropped the ball on Rwanda. But blame the United Nations for that cock up.

But it was the standing we hold as a strong nation that allows us to be out there now still

Doing some good.

God save the king

The monarchy has been subconsciously promoted for ages. They're particularly bad at reading the mood of the general public because they and their advisers are so far out of touch. Once they realise how low their standing is the propoganda machine winds up and every magazine cover shows a smiling royal child, Camilla in a garden or Kate being kind to poor children. This is counterbalanced by articles on how awful Harry and Meghan are though, just for contrast.
