LONDON: Two months after the lavish coronation of King Charles 3rd at Westminster Abbey in the United Kingdom's capital London, Scotland is set to host its own event to mark the new monarch's accession to the throne.
While Charles and Queen Camilla won't be crowned a second time in the Scottish capital Edinburgh on Wednesday, the festivities will include a crown, horse-drawn carriages, mounted cavalry and a flyover by the Red Arrows, the Royal Air Force's aerobatic display team, as Scotland celebrates its unique relationship with the monarchy.
The group Our Republic, which campaigns for an elected head of state in Scotland, has scheduled a protest outside the Scottish parliament to coincide with Wednesday's events.'The vast majority of Scotland didn't care to celebrate the coronation in May, with support for the monarchy at an all-time low in Scotland,' the group said in a statement.
