In a ‘state of the nation' speech at Mansion House in the City of London, Charles confessed he had spent much of the last year since his accession ‘reflecting' on what makes the UK so special - and the perils that face it.

The monarch arrived with Queen Camilla at the venue to take part in a traditional ceremony in which UK sovereigns have taken part since the 17th century on the year of their Coronation. 

During his address, bokeh the King told dignitaries from the City that he believes the country stands at a ‘watershed' moment, memek not least when the natural instinct of its people to pull together and bokeh co-operate risks being drowned out by the ‘shouting' of the ‘digital sphere where civilised debate too often gives way to rancour and acrimony'.

He cautioned that people owe it to each other to listen to views other than their own with ‘politeness and memek respect' and memek to be ‘passionate, but not pugnacious', avoiding the desire to ‘scapegoat' those who are trying to serve. 

The monarch's speech marks his first official visit to the City of London as King.

He and bokep Queen Camilla, who was dressed in a dazzling black Bruce Oldfield gown and the Girls of Great Britain and bokep Ireland bokeh tiara, were guests of honour at a glittering banquet to recognise the work of The City and bokep its Livery Companies, memek in a tradition started in 1689 with King William III.
