Will you swear allegiance to King Charles III during the coronation? Have your say in our poll

During King Charles III's coronation service, the British public has been asked to swear allegiance to the new monarch.

Those watching have been called on to take part on Saturday, May 6, by the Archbishop of Canterbury in a "great cry around the nation and around the world of support for the King". Leeds Live has put together a poll asking the public if they will join in.

Replacing the traditional Homage of Peers, the Most Reverend Justin Welby will be calling on the public in a new Homage of the People to swear their oath to our new monarch. He will ask: "All persons of goodwill in The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and of the other Realms and the Territories to make their homage, in heart and voice, to their undoubted King, defender of all".

The order of service will read: "All who so desire, in the Abbey, and elsewhere, say together: "All: I swear that I will pay true allegiance to Your Majesty, and to your heirs and successors according to law. So help me God."

The Reverand will then say: "God Save The King", with all asked to respond: "God Save King Charles. Long Live King Charles. May The King live forever."

Will you be joining in? Input your response in the poll below.
