King Charles III's Proclamation has taken place as Britain officially welcomes in its new monarch.
Charle's role as the new King was confirmed during a meeting of the Accession Council attended by privy councillors at St James’s Palace in London.
Initially, the Privy Council was the executive arm of the English government and dates all the way back to the 13th Century. Nowadays, it remains an advisory body to the monarch and requires a special oath in order to be a member.
