Prince William meets the public in Falmouth

The Prince and Princess of Wales were visiting the National Maritime Museum in Falmouth. A man held up the page, shouted an anti-monarchy sentiment and was detained, as similar protestors were detained in the early days of the King’s reign at Edinburgh and at Oxford, including an academic who remarked that no one had voted for the King, which is true.
