This song has been removed from the Coronation Playlist, due to complaints about the band’s republican views. They are certainly not alone with their views, but the mainstream media shuts out anti-monarchy comments like they don’t exist.

Support for the monarchy is already at an all-time low. As the King’s Coronation will be publicly funded, at a time of increasing poverty in the UK, it will not endear the King to his “subjects”. Charles does not actually need a coronation, because he is already the king anyway.

It is a myth that the Royal Family are value for money, because they are good for tourism, they are actually quite low down on the list of tourist attractions.  The current cost of the coronation to the taxpayer is estimated at £250m.

          There are none so deaf, as those who do not want to listen. When people have something ingrained in their belief system, it is a waste of time time talking to them.
          On the other hand, their are a lot of people with more sense, but the MSM misrepresents that section of society, not just to the UK, but to the world.

            A shitty system that needs to be destroyed, the majority are sheep, and the ones with sense are fought and eliminated somehow.
            What a curse to be a human being in this era.
