King Charles' plans for 'slimmed down monarchy' with 'less expensive' coronation amid cost-of-living crisis
King Charles is reportedly planning to 'slim down' the working monarchy and have a 'less expensive' coronation ceremony than his mother's amid Britain's cost-of-living crisis.
The source told the paper: "The King is very aware of the struggles felt by modern Britons so will see his wishes carried through that although his coronation ceremony should stay right and true to the long held traditions of the past, it should also be representative of a monarchy in a modern world."A date for the ceremony has not yet been announced, but May and June 2023 are possibilities.
The move has strong public support, according to a poll commissioned by the Daily Express. Some 65 per cent of survey participants backed the idea, with only 7 per cent opposed.
