A history of the UK's State Opening of Parliament

King Charles III arrived at Parliament to preside over the State Opening on Wednesday, donning his ceremonial robes and the crown of state to deliver a speech laying out the legislative program of the U.K.’s first left-leaning government in 14 years. The state opening of Parliament is one of the traditional set pieces of the political year, showcasing through carefully choreographed pageantry Britain’s evolution from an absolute monarchy to a parliamentary democracy where real power is vested in the elected House of Commons.

You clearly have no love or respect for the history this represents. You take the time to criticize vociferously. Your prerogative. But your POV is extremely narrow.

@thevicarage9841 It's Medieval nonsense, and it's embarrassing!!! I guess the men in England really do like dressing up like women...

OK, does the king having fancy things prevent that from being fixed? Plus the king brings more in tourism than the states items are worth
