King Charles refuses 'cut-price coronation' in favour of pomp and glamour

KING Charles has refused the idea of a “cut-price” coronation and will use the event to showcase “UK PLC”, according to reports.

The Telegraph has reported that organisers believe one of the “key learnings” from coverage of the period between the Queen’s death and her funeral was that it projected a positive image of the UK to the rest of the world, and they are now looking to replicate that with the King’s coronation.

Organisers are said to be determined to invest in the event which will take place in Westminster Abbey on May 6.
