Pledging allegiance to the King - Monarchy NZ

From Morning Report, 8:38 am on 1 May 2023

Coronation organisers will ask millions of King Charles III's new subjects to cry out their allegiance to the monarch in unison from wherever they are watching the service this weekend.

According to newly released plans for the ceremony, anyone watching, streaming or listening to the service will be invited to recite a new "homage of the people."

The service takes place on Saturday night here in New Zealand. The chairman of Monarchy New Zealand, Dr Sean Palmer spoke to Corin Dann.
