Plans for a 'slimmed down' Coronation have been met with some criticism from commentators who believe the occasion must be harnessed to showcase the best of the British monarchy.
King Charles III is said to be advocating for a cut-down ceremony to set the tone for a modern monarchy that is in tune with the public's current financial challenges.
The occasion's guest list has reportedly been slashed from 8,000 to 2,000 and much of the pomp and ceremony has been scrapped.
