Rishi Sunak Hails Coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has spoken out ahead of the Coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla on 6 May 2023. He called it a moment of “extraordinary national pride” that will unite the nation and the Commonwealth.
A Royal Celebration Like No Other
Sunak promised dazzling processions, breathtaking pageantry, and joyous street parties. “No other country could put on such a spectacle,” he said. But the Coronation is more than just a show—it’s a proud display of Britain’s rich history, culture, and traditions.
A Modern Ceremony for a New Era
This year marks a breakthrough with representatives of every faith playing a central role at Westminster Abbey, where monarchs have been crowned for nearly a thousand years. The event will also spotlight thousands of acts of kindness across the UK, reflecting the “spirit of service” at the heart of the emerging Carolean Age.
Come Together and Celebrate
“Let’s celebrate this weekend with pride in who we are and what we stand for,” Sunak urged. “Let’s look to the future with hope and optimism, making memories to tell our grandchildren about the day we came together to sing: God Save The King.”
