Charles says the institution still plays an 'indispensable role in the most pressing issues of our time', including on climate change, education and economic cooperation.

Other royals at the service included the Queen Consort, the Prince and Princess of Wales, the new Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, the Princess Royal and the Commonwealth Secretary-General Baroness Scotland.

The Commonwealth has come under pressure following the death of the Queen, with a number of nations - including Antigua, Barbuda, Belize and The Bahamas - signalling that they could kickstart plans to break away from the association. He also paid tribute to his"beloved mother" whom he said had dedicated her"long and remarkable life" to the"Commonwealth family", which currently comprises 56 independent countries.In his speech, the King said:"Whether on climate change and biodiversity loss, youth opportunity and education, global health or economic cooperation, the Commonwealth can play an indispensable role in the most pressing issues of our time.

Ho hum. If your that miffed by the royals move to France. It's his face on the money now... so he's my king.

About 30 sad self loathing people out of a population of almost 70million just shouting as the left do. Stop whinging . It's pathetic. Long live the King 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Who are these weirdos who in their right mind got up this morning and though to themselves “I’m going to give the king a piece of my mind this morning “ 😂😂😂😂😂it’s disturbing

nit my king either...then again I'll never bow down to anyone as some Americans do....don't forget why we left england

This would never have happened to the Queen and it's all Harry's fault KensingtonRoyal

Amateur reporting yet again from sky

Perhaps they would prefer Harry😱

He is the King and chanting this makes no difference at all.

Horrible family it is, no wonder why people hate them so much.

He's not my choice either 😡😡😡

And they’d all be wrong

Well he’s my King.

Pathetic looking rabble

idiots

To the tower

Bet they want President Corbyn 🤣

Ah look, the rent-a-crowd middle class leftists on a jolly. I don't care for King Charles, I think his dubious choice of friends tells it's own story, but I accept he's the King of my country and respect his position

Embarrassment

Pathetic

Interesting that there are many who don’t see this monarch as the rightful heir to the throne...and if you look at the history books you will discover he isn’t

Notice the “spray painted signs” are all Identical, this is an organized mob who are anti-monarchy.

What a lovely family of false idols…. Guess it’s normal to be very very close friends with all the best known pedophiles. Just a coincidence mind.

😂 What a joke. Why even bother covering it? Looks like a handful of morning drinkers turfed out of wetherspoons.

What a bunch of losers, haven’t they got anything better to do?

They can leave anytime they like! Don’t let the door hit you on the way out! 👍🇬🇧

I do understand peoples concern about our king, with his alliance to the WEF and his interference in political issues like net zero, which let’s face it the consequences of which will never affect him. He won’t worry about energy costs, not being able to fly, lose his car.

Your King and his son William are members of the tyrannical WEF.

Embarrassing.. you report on 40 people protesting this crap ... yet thousands protested against ULEZ and I mean thousands and what a suprise .. you weren't there

Of course they wore masks 😆😆😆 GOD SAVE THE KING 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Disrespectful.

Yet you haven't reported once on the thousands protesting against Ulez!! Biased reporting as always

This looks 100% staged, confirmed by the fact MSM are covering it. Must be a plot to disband the monarchy.

Obviously nothing better to do with their time.

WEF puppet controlled by the Rothschilds

Cowmilla won’t be happy, watch the amount of headlines against Harry pour out of the daily fail

I believe the collective term is 'boring joyless eejits'. Easily identified by their stock facial expression. A hybrid of 'smarmy git' and 'Father Dougal Maguire'. Do not approach & for gawd sake wear a mask. They'd suck the joy out of a marble.

These people denounce our way of life and culture with one had and then champion the very right for people to come to the country and traditions they are denouncing, nowt stranger than folk

Horrible people

No megaphones this time?

What a great cause to witness democracy at play from a grand stage

He is their King whether they like it or not and if they don’t they are free to move elsewhere.

And the woke Sky loved every moment

Out of all the more important things these people could protest about this isn't one.

A goody ...lets have Open borders, ever more mass migration and cultural erosion, shit on traditional British identity and culture and get rid of the monarchy. Civl war anybody?

Very KLF.

Lefty or Scot nats or republicans causing more disruption and grievance .

What a turnout! Must many tens of.....tens... Bunch of left wing labourites melting. I can tell because they are all protesting on a work day instead of working. probably the same ones leaching off the system and wanting illegal parasites to live here with them aka Labour voter's

Move abroad then

Wow!!

So move. Out oafs.

Coronation is going to be like last weekend... lol

interesting

off with their heads !

Barbadian exiles whose interpretation of its meaning that has a houseandhonefullof evil

Unfortunately for them, as long as they’re resident in the UK, he is. Although if it’s not what they want they’re free to leave at any time they wish.

There's so much happening in the UK right now and this is what they're choosing to protest. Waste of time.

If they live in the U.K., he is their king, tough luck

Everyone needs to feel they can get a like on social media. Let these 15 people revel in their sad little glory.

🤣🤣🤣🐴🤡

I have more people round than that for a patio bbq at the weekend.

Give it to William already and take your dog with you!

A small group of childish muppets disrupting an important event celebrating the Commonwealth. Again proving the emptiness of their campaign. They have no point and no argument so resort to infantile acts such as this. Go home and leave the people enjoying these events alone!

Treasonous

All 30 of them

So around a dozen or two ppl involved & u report it. Sky news is rubbish.

solidarity!

Well get out of this country then

Absolute vermin 🤬🤬

Bring out the water cannon.

Got bad news for the muppets HE IS

I mean, he is, so...

More minorities

I don’t think he’s their king

Nasty ass brexxshitt.twats

Same bunch who glue themselves to roads

The ignorance of some people amaze even me. If you choose to live in this Kingdom then unfortunately for you he is your king. If that's not to your liking please and I mean this very sincerely move away. Once again, for me the sooner the better.

When will people learn there never gonna change this shit and need to stop trying

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Afraid he is unless you move to Spain then he won’t be

He ain't a king just a cheater and should relinquish his throne?

He is though, isn’t he? 😆

Pathetic.

Their view is irrelevant

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Nasty miserable losers.

They fail to get 100 to protest let’s wait and see Coronation

GSTK 👑🫡🇨🇦🇬🇧

Embarrassing Britain in the World stage, 15 people busses in from the dole queue.

Pathetic

Yep

Sad bastards

All dozens of them.

He's not my king either but I have a life and better things to do

Another jolly outing for rent-a-mob 🙄 Bumders!

I'm imagining this at Henry 8th Coronation... how would they have been treated? Hmm?

People really have time in there day to do this. Sad lives 😂😂

Charles should just step down and enjoy retirement and let William be King. Charles is too old to perform duties of a king.

To the tower with them.

Royalty is an out dated concept.

Do these scum ever work.

Done alright for a bunch of Inbred Germans haven't they!!

He has let the people down already. His oath is under scrutiny.

By the looks of them, they won't see out the next 10 years.

More signs than people 😂😂😂

Well fuck them off out of it,.

He is the NWO agenda 30 king

there is plenty of small boats on the coast they can use to go to france then

They need to move out of England then, cause the king ain’t going anywhere

The same thick leftwing who would rather have boat after boat of illegal immigrants over here 🤦

One couple were waving a copy of Spare

Dodgy old soap dodgers.

Rude. Bored boomers wasting paper

at least they arent clogging the supermarkets up whilst there

Send them to Rwanda.

So about 20 people protest and you report it, but when a few thousand protested over the ULEZ expansion last month you weren't there? They'll be back this Saturday 18th at Trafalgar Square and likely marching on to Downing Street again. Surely more newsworthy than this?

What an absolute waste of space and time… who cares what they think!!! 🤷‍♂️

My King. God save the King.

Sad commie losers 😂😂

Good for them NotMyKing

Unfortunately, he is, indeed you’re king

Traitors

So who is their King? Do they want a different King? Or do they not want a King? If they don’t want a King then nobody is their King then surely 🤷‍♂️

Typical Sky. Stop betraying Britain.

Just to make their day he is their King. I’m proud to say he is MY King.

Why are the lefties so against everything British?

Rent a mob. What's the planned protest due to be about next week?

These people are sad, pathetic losers with clearly nothing better to do with their little lives. Get the water cannons on them.

Oh God, the comments in this thread. Educators in this country need to do better, ffs.

That verbose woman is an “Essex girl” born and bred.

They’d all be regretting this movement when someone like Trump runs the UK hahaha

Booooo to the protesters! Long live the King!

KingandPrince JimmySaville EpsteinClientList AbolishTheMonarchy

How childish can you get?

Doylems

People resist change, even when change is desperately needed, because they prefer the comfort blanket of the familiar. Defending the principle that a head of state holds that position by birth-right is beyond reason, it is pure Stockholm syndrome.

Well, he’s mine

Off with their heads.

Good for them.

12 of them…? oh please..

Sad sad people with nothing else in their life, I pity them.

Go home you bunch of tossers!!! Must have nowt better to do

Why is it the same bunch of wronguns turning up to demonstrate against anything , ship them to a country of their choice

Water cannon, looks like they need a wash

Fxckixx wxnkxrs.

How many? 20? 30? Ridiculous piece of news - as usual with SKY and BBC

AbolishTheMonarchy

🥱

Kick them out

Shameful!

Absolutely disgusting and pathetic. How dare they disrespect the king when he’s only just buried his mother, our late precious queen

Traitors

So who do they want as king?

Most others were at work….

Word

All 11 of the strange middle aged men. Why not celebrate the fabulous diversity & wonderful people of the Commonwealth instead? There were beautiful performances from our families around the world. But no - let’s focus on the tiniest bit negative part of it.

Crazy people absolutely

Why is it the same group at every one of these “protests”?

Why the close crop - probably because it was a small insignificant crowd - poor reporting

Oh yes he is

The leftie underemployeds

Another day , another pointless protest in London 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Lock em up for treason

He is their king though…

UK national security is outsourced to the US. Yes that's right, UK sovereignty was ceded to the NSA in the US by the king's mother. GCHQ in Cheltenham is an outpost of the NSA. Employees regularly job swap between the UK and US. Brexiters concerned about sovereignty were played.

Scum.

What a bunch of muppets

It’s the same pro immigration lot that are there bunch of unemployed professional protesters scum bags the lot of them.

Good zooming in by the socialist a huge crowd of 17 universal credit claimants

Then these far-left member of the socialist workers party best go back to Russia.

he’s the head of the english church and didn’t condemn his own adultery which is condemned in the bible. he should step down from the religious leadership and pass it to william who has no such scandals.

NMK ! NMK

they could always move somewhere else

More SNP yellow. Honestly, these people should be employed instead of objecting the the Monarchy. The Monarchy has protected us from leaders who enjoy the popularity and money that comes, forgetting the people.

The royal family of scroungers, housing benefit cheats and inheritance tax avoiders! Time to phase them out along with the corrupt honours system that also contaminates our political system!

Stop giving these pond life airtime ! Oxygen stealers !!

Is that all of them in the photo...

Well he is your king like it or lump it ….. the alternative is to piss off to another country who’s head of state you like

“Who died and made you king? … oh, hang on…”.

Trying to stir up a news story. Pathetic

Lol Republican must be very proud of these 10 weirdos.

Most people are in favour of the Monarchy. Additionally Charles is new so any drop in support is likely to be temporary. The royal family will probably still be here long after the Tories and Labour have disappeared as political parties.

Need more people like them, keep up the good work

Somebody organised this? That Budget is going to be excruciatingly BAD

Just another example of a small group of load mouths trying to tear up the fibre of our country. No doubt they are all pro EU, don’t like the immigration bill, want to stop oil, pro climate change etc. Arrest them all for being a public nuisance.

Fraid he is...soz.

You can say it all you like, but you're wrong

All 10 of them. They'll bring the country to its knees I tell you.😅😅😅

That’s a bit weird

Get a job !

If these cockwombles are that upset and outraged by Charles being king then leave the U.K. go live elsewhere

Its time for a democratic vote, for a King or President....

Well he is showing he is a wef puppet - he better watch it as he will ruin the monarchy for Willian and all of us

I think they’ll find he is their king 🤡

Wait until the coronation - I don’t know how many protesters there’ll be, but I’d guess at least three times this - minimum

Utter children. Pathetic. If he’s not your king then it’s got nothing to do with you.

Would they prefer Andrew?

Twits !

Day release?

They can go to Rwanda too then or stop whining

I'm sure King Charles is bothered. NOT

notmyprotestors

Idiots.

What did they think after her majesty died. The monarchy would die as well.

Is he their queen?

A handful of old fruitcakes protest and it makes the headlines on Sky. 🙄

Doesn't look like a single one of them is under the age of 65.

He shouldn't king now he should step back past it to William and take time out and be a father to a son with big metal health issues and spent time with the grandkids that's what a real king would do but we don't have a real king

Knuckle-draggers!

Pathetic

Barely enough people to hold up those letters.

It’s the same rent a crowd of about 15, hardly revolutionary.

What about not my prime minister

The irony to all this, is he actually is and they can't change that 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Ericdun19416783 We haven't had a real king and Queen since the formation of parliament,just puppets with no use but to create more wealth for the already rich.

Sandal and Socks wearing, single and available convention 🤓🇬🇧

But he is their king? Unless the are foreign. The most pointless display I’ve ever seen

but…..he is your KING so tough……

The guy lives in a palace you think he gives two shyts about these tellytubby peasants

Deport them.

Bore off. A handful of ijits trying to get their faces on TV, thanks to you they made it.

Protest all you want, it would take a law going through parliament to abolish the Royal family or would you want William instead

🙄🙄

They absolutely have the right to protest. I’m pro freedom of thought/expression. But noisy PROTESTS against someone going into Church - LEGAL. Silent PRAYER within 150m of an abortion clinic - CRIMINAL! Freedom of speech when it suits (Linnekar) Cancel when it doesn’t (Rowling)

Could do with a not my government outside parliament now - they are supposed to declare outside interests like WEF - an election with clear manifestos - if it’s not in the manifesto it should be a referendum or shelved till next election - NO to 15min cities, WHO treaty & digi ID

Kings are a joke in today's society. Some countries have them and each one should be overthrown. Countries without democracy should be destroyed and regoverened.

I just think what this could be like in a few years times. I think the Royals face a very tough time ahead.

We don’t giva a fuck 😀

He IS their King and they better get used to it. Or they could always leave the country.

Well bugger off to a non commonwealth country, pathetic.

I was there. Do you want to know the turnout? Barely 15. They needed a megaphone because there weren't enough to make noise otherwise. Disrupted an otherwise joyous event.

DEPORTED back to South Africa after six years in Scotland. Don't drink alcohol don't take drugs. Grand parents From BRITAIN. Uneployment 14 million people in South Africa. Trades man. Now homeless in South Africa. No food banks. 🇿🇦🇬🇧 Home office Croydon London to blame.

Pass it on to William already!

What was the protest about...🤔

King Chuck is fucked.. bring on William asap.

Yes not my King! 🥚

Wonder who paid for their nice yellow signs, probably the same people that paid them to attend

Respect to them 👏🏻👏🏻🎉🎉🎉

Pretty sure he is 😂 now get a proper job and contribute you wasters 🙄

Shouldn’t they be at work? Or let me guess ? They don’t have one?

Do people sit there and think what pointless s**t shall we protest about 🤦🏻‍♂️ God save our King 👑✌🏻

Yeah get rid of that pish!

Good for them representing a micro percent of the non working public. Well done. Clap clap. You’re all special

Color yellow for the 'Not My King' slogan!

All 20 of them 😂 cute.

The great unemployed and unwashed protesting again on a week day!

What a bunch of Saddos

What a sad bunch.. a lot of time on their hands

Who pays these clowns?

They must of had unhappy childhoods. ☹️

Scumbag traitorous protestors

One more OAPS rally

NotMyKing NotMyQueen

Are they from America or France?

Off with there hds

There is to much heritage , history and lineage behind that family to even come close to it going away. 12 years of tories and now they’ve trapped us with Brexit. Work hard, retire, get out of dodge

Professional protesters bussed in by the hard left you mean?

Westerners would be delighted if you'd care to find a home in another country. Have some integrity and don't stay in a nation that doesn't reflect your values. Not our people.

I'll tell you what we did...we threw the tea into the Boston harbor that got them all pissed off, yes, sure there were years of fighting but we won our independence from your monarchy...You guys might have to do the same thing in a sense

It was just a handful of protesters, why do you want to make a big deal about this

Oxygen thieves every one 🙄

they would prefer a Commissar.

Disrespectful bunch of assholes ! They will all be happy to take the extra days off work, if they have jobs, and always happy to spend the 'kings shilling' !

Excellent. 👏👏

May's gonna be interesting. 😂

Do these people not have jobs?

RepublicStaff AbolishTheMonarchy

Pathetic

Well, this could have sparked an interesting debate about the future of the monarchy, which after all is what the demonstration is about. But the lack of intelligent discourse here similar to the way our great king handles fountain pens... ignominious!

AbolishTheMonarchy NotMyKing

oh dear and H&M are in California so can't blame them.

Not very bright are they, he is your king

Then leave the country you daft numpties. 👑🇬🇧

What a pathetic bunch of misfits. Probably the highlight of their lives, holding placards and chanting!

Happily take the Bank Holiday off, that’s if the scruffy twats work

What a sad life these people must live.

Do they prefer Queens?

Just watched your coverage of the Oscars. Not one mention of the win for An Irish Goodbye made in Belfast. Not. 1. Mention. Disgraceful.

We live in a Monarchy which is hereditary. Yes he is our King, accept it it isn’t changing. I would put you all in the tower and throw the key away, but hey hoo we have laws that protect you. You could have it bad, and be ruled by a dictator.

Maybe they should move to another country then !

I’ve got news for them…..HE IS YOUR KING GodSaveTheKing 🇬🇧

Fucking state of them lol

Amazing how everyone backs the Royals the same ones who back patted Jimmy Saville for decades and have a paedo in the family. Short memories I think.

Scum

Treason?

Rent-a-mob.

Technically is.

What a bunch of melts

Brilliant👍🏻👍🏻

He is your king! I hate woke snowflakes!

I think a lot of people Agree with them.

British citizen? I’ll think you’ll find Charles is your King, no matter how many times you say he isn’t or hold signs in the air with it on… 🤦🏼‍♂️ good grief…

Time to get rid of the benefit scroungers, the entire lot are vile. Time for revolution ✊✊

God save the king 🇬🇧 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Very good!! NotMyKing AbolishTheMonarchy

Why don’t they move somewhere else then, try Russia

Traitors, load them into the trebuchet and give them flying lessons.

Pathetic

These so called Protesters, go & get a real job please & stop polluting the air! I bet most of you are all on benefits, funded by the tax man.

NotMyKing AbolishTheMonachy

Those ‘protestors’ (Republic movement) are ridiculous! All 30 of them I believe! I wonder how many have actually done the research into what being a Republic would mean..... such as higher taxation for one thing!

notmyking

I hope these protesters refuse the extra days holiday they will get from the Kings coronation🤔

1 hypocrite

Don't the royals always call for unity?

Meaningless platitudes

He could start with helping out the poor on the streets, that would unify everyone

Does he mean in Britain or his family?
