Whatever the criteria is, if there's pictures of them as members of the Night Star team before the Queen even died, then it's a bit of stretch, to suggest that they infiltrated the group, so that they could disrupt the coronation of Charles. I disagree mate. You’re very blasé in your views if I may say so. People spend months working this shit out and have an end game. I know that sounds a bit conspiracy theorist but to suggest these people have just popped up on the scene seems naive to me. It’s quite possible they’ve gone into it waiting for an opportunity So what? Disruptive protests that harm nobody are something that should be encouraged, not crushed down by corrupt vindictive police officers. I don't support XR, JSO, et al blocking major roads into big cities, tube networks etc. People miss out on work. People suffer as a result. People get hurt. This wasn't that. Who suffers from disruptive protest on Saturday? Some posh prick in a gold carriage? Some Royal bootlicking celebrities who were considered worthy of an invite to the ceremony? Those who had camped out for 15 seconds of a glimpse wouldn't have been impacted whatsoever. They barely saw anything anyway. First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me Martin Niemoller.

A bit like some of the replies he’s had (the usual name calling). It’ll be interesting to see what the investigation comes back with. It’ll be interesting to see what the backstory re the 3 arrested persons and whether there’s any suggestion that they weren’t there purely to support vulnerable young ladies as they should be and that there may be some substance re something more sinister. Time will tell I guess but certainly one of them has a lot of links to a number of protests including XR. I think there’s been a lot of people jumping gun on what at the moment is a story being pushed by 1 side. Being a part of a group like XR doesn't erode your freedom to protest. I suspect the only exceptions would be designated terrorist organisations.... XR, Just Stop Oil etc are not. These were vindictive arrests... Another sad sad day for Britain. We are being forced to accept something that 48% of British citizens (according to Royal arse licker Piers Morgan) oppose... Clearly by a vengeful and spiteful police force now. Those arrested need to lawyer the fuck up and ensure this goes to court. None of this IOPC rubbish. They've been shown to be an ineffective bunch of turnips. This needs to end up in court... Potentially a criminal one, if a crime was committed. I suspect any case would be civil but if they can prove some form of collusion took place or some other nefarious actions... Well, time to hold the Met to account. I'm keen to hear what Rowley has to say over the next few weeks. I've been impressed with some of the stuff he's come out with but it's complete bullshit if he doesn't act here. I think that’s the issuez We need to wait till Mark Rowley has said his bit and explained things from a Police perspective. All we have at the moment is a very black and white one sided view from those protesting or some agitators like the original twitterer who clearly has a slant on things. I’m not saying the Police are entirely innocent and they need to be held to account but there are times they can’t do right for doing wrong whatever they do. As I said previously sometimes they have to be preemptive in their actions and look at the bigger picture and stop something before it’s happened if the intelligence is there. If I was an officer and hung out to dry because I’ve basically followed orders I’d refuse to take action in future at protests. Then if I allowed a “peaceful” protestor to stop being peaceful run onto a racecourse, footyground or public highway to cause carnage or potentially or put someone’s life at risk I’d just say “well I was only letting them protest peacefully I didn’t know they were going to do that.” Of course if someone lost a life you’d get the same people saying why didn’t they do anything like the people glueing themselves to the highways.

Yep, safe now Lord. All that's left is the delicious irony of every news article on the coronation being about anti-monarchist protests.

Still dragging it out on TV and radio this morning. Don't worry they'll be back to slagging of Harry and Meghan again any day now.....

The police are once again being exposed for being corrupt and are now bringing in the troops to brazen it out. I really started to believe things were on the up with Rowley but this has completely reset that view and set my mind back. So disappointing. Is there ever going to be a police that simply protects the public ?

Is there ever going to be a police that simply protects the public ? It's so important to film the police as much as possible, as their version of events often cannot be trusted. They will lie to protect themselves and each other.

I see Prince William, our next king, is at the W FAC Final to present the trophy, etc.
I assume there are posters on this MB who would prefer someone they voted for, or appointed by the government.

Cannot speak for other posters, but why such a narrow and binary choice? I imagine any number of people might be up for it. For example: - Sarina Wiegman - Jeff Stelling - Nello - The woman who co-presented Eurovision last night with Graham Norton – she was great - Bayernoatcake.

Wait he's a royal. Scratch that. Too soon? Not too soon. Tbh, we should cut the bloke some slack. We don't know whether the allegations are accurate, and I for one thought he was convincing on the Emily Maitlis Panorama interview. And I imagine he wouldn't turn down an opportunity to get up close with 20-30 young female athletes - although purely because of his admiration for their skill, dedication and commitment.

I believed him too, especially that part about the fact he doesn't sweat. Who wouldn't believe such a story? (Aside from literally every scientist in the world)

The ermine-trimmed robes, the orb, the sceptre, the fancy costumes. Chazza’s modernising is really coming along well isn’t it! (Does anyone else think that the Prince of Pegging, sorry, the Prince of Wales, looks to have grown some hair?)

And isn't the one that the bloke in the photo is now married to (seriously I can never remember their names) herself divorced?
