King Charles at loggerheads with church leaders over his desire for diverse Coronation

King Charles is in discussions with faith leaders over his desire to have a diverse Coronation next month.

The Coronation of Charles and Queen Consort Camilla will take place at Westminster Abbey on Saturday, May 6, conducted by Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury.
