More than 1,000 people to protest at King Charles III’s coronation next month.
Graham Smith, chief executive of campaign group Republic, outlined plans for a “fairly light-hearted” demonstration calling for the abolition of the monarchy, while protesting outside York Minster where the King was attending a Maundy Thursday service.
A number of people gathered in the city with large signs that read “Not my King” and “Down with the crown” during the monarch’s visit alongside his wife Camilla.
