A man challenged King Charles III about the cost of living crisis during his visit to Cardiff on Friday. The heckler stood in the crowd as the new monarch greeted the public in Llandaff and asked him why the public was “paying for his parade” while they “struggle to heat their homes”.
The protester was captured on a widely shared video saying: “While we struggle to heat our homes, we have to pay for your parade.” The outburst caught the King's attention before he appeared to say "oh" and turned away.
Following the interaction, he continued to swiftly move down the line and shake hands with others. The man was blocked by a bodyguard while he shouted: "We pay £100 million a year for you, and for what?”
