Commentator does not seem to know much about what’s is going on

[@dukeofglasgow9354]

Not wondering, as they have abolished their own monarchy so any knowledge for royalty is kinda rusty for them.

The Gunpowder Plot was in 1605, not 1666! 1666 was the Great Fire of London.

Happy Birthday to Queen Camila! 17/07 and 77 years old! Lucky 7's!

The Vice-Chamberlain of the Household (one of the Government Whips) is the MP held "captive."

[@JohnParks-zc1pn]

When Charles III stood in for Queen Elizabeth II, he was accompanied by William. Philip was dead by then.

[@nymuelovan]

Beautiful. He is the GOAT.

[@centredoorplugsthornton4112]

King can't change one work of "his" speech as it's written by the prime Minister. Whether or not the King agrees with any of it. He could conclude the speech reading by saying "I know how to spell 'assent' and 'reserved.'"

Happy Birthday to Queen Camila (July 17 2024) Your Majesty 👑

In the States, we have a "designated survivor," safely tucked away, because the whole government is in the House chamber during the State of the Union Address. Usually some inferior Cabinet member of the President's. 🤣

[@Beirut27]

The state of the Black Rod's front teeth is apalling 😱 !

[@Dukelanovic]

It is not easy to keep the tradition and to be a good King, wearing a golden crown. Especially if the words have to be kept serious and if the whole issue shalt be no advertisement for better cleaning (#Brainwashing#) chemicals in the cleaning products industry. It is not easy, and I want to know if there somebody would have a better speech? However - God save the King (Even on a red background on a picture) For our nation also has a #unknown King# in England and for our nation had a lot to suffer. It is not easy having a King and a president. Over here (Serbia) we have one president and some days we see on how we Serbs throw our Serbian flags into the trash after a nice wedding, and we know how we even do not respect our own president and even keep silent about our King - hiding somewhere in England.

France has so grown beyond this royal nonsense.

[@luxann292]

So much better than American holliganism.

[@kismit100]

Yes well, look at France 😂😂

what a bunch of clowns and waste of taxpayers money

[@rosenrot32]

This is so ridiculous

[@doreenhollywood7459]

What a performance and total waste of taxpayers money.

[@luxann292]

Oh comon, it ain't that bad. 😂

[@filleauparadis7633]

as if u pay tax...ever seen the crowd outside, brings more money than spent by the Household

[@22poopoo]

I'd glady pay £1 to see this instead of dry grey nothingness. Everything here has meaning and connotation. It teaches.

[@bubble-r8b]

Give over. You lot are BORING

[@labienus9968]

You just don't understand it

Stolen goods you mean ofcourse!!!

[@andyfreeman4086]

Never saw something so dumb like this, 😅😅😅😅😂😂

[@Beirut27]

Look at yourself in a mirror... you might be surprised :P .

[@jillsinanan6777]

Consort Queen Camilla - seems the Brits forget their own tradition!!

[@dukeofglasgow9354]

Whichever queen consort or regnant, she's known as Thy Queen. Seems it's you that forgets this very tradition.
