The world and Britain has changed a lot since 1953 and it was good to see those multi-cultural multi-faith elements being assimilated more into the ceremony. I'm proud to be British and proud of our history and our traditions, despite all the mistakes we've made along the way- but who hasn't! Give me a King or Queen any day to the political, often corrupt alternative. The precision of today's events was simply breath taking It was spectacular. Nobody does it better. echo. My second Coronation also. It saddens me that there is a section of our society that seem to be looking for anything they can criticise about our country's past and present. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
