King Charles Heckled by Anti-Monarchy Protestors

King Charles III was greeted by anti-monarchists during a recent engagement. The former prince of Wales was on a visit to Milton Keynes, a suburb of London that was just granted city status. Outside, he was met by supporters waiting to shake the king’s hand, as well as protestors representing a group called Republic. Members carried signs that read “Not My King.” There have been growing challenges to the role of monarchy in recent years.

[@labenvenci1584]

I still remember seeing a failed assasination in Australia in 94 against Charles. Someone shot blanks in the air, then ran on stage with a starter gun, was tackled and hauled away right infront of him. Charles wasn't even scared. He was just confused, walked on and continued the speech as normal despite the chaos. Just calm as ever too, and no comment either. Absolute dimwit. Literally nothing can phase this guy.

She couldn’t have been a queen. Monarchy doesn’t follow feelings.

No she wouldn't have. Because the role of a Queen Consort is first and foremost to support her husband whereas you had Diana tear him down with falsehoods when their marriage broke up, and collude with PRINCE ANDREW to convince the late Queen to have Charles step aside.

The prince asked the blacksmith to make him a sword, and the blacksmith shrugged him off and said no. After that the prince threaten him and said that he'll have him killed and the blacksmith replied "I'll be waiting for it". The prince angrily leaved and after a few weeks nothing happened to the blacksmith.
