In recent years, there has been a significant increase in protests organized by Republic, a group that advocates for the abolition of the monarchy. This weekend, their plans to protest at the Trooping of the Colour, a traditional event that celebrates the British monarch's birthday, have been met with resistance from the Metropolitan Police.
There is currently a debate over whether the Princess of Wales will be able to attend the event, as she is battling cancer. Last week, Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, expressed her regrets for being unable to participate in the final rehearsal. However, this is not the only issue surrounding the Trooping of the Colour this year.
Republic has accused the Metropolitan Police of using human rights laws to prevent their protest from taking place. They have been asked to move out of sight of both the parade and the media, a demand that the group has described as "kafkaesque" and a cause for concern.
When approached for a statement, the Metropolitan Police declined to comment. We have also reached out to Royal Parks for their response to the situation. As the event draws closer, tensions are rising and it remains to be seen how this conflict will be resolved. Stay tuned for live updates on the unfolding situation.
