Scotland: views and traditions of coronation

According to a YouGov poll, almost three-quarters of people in Scotland do not care about the coronation, and only 46% think that Britain should continue to have a monarchy in future, with 40% saying it should have an elected head of state instead. The poll of 1,032 people between 17 and 20 April found that 44% of respondents have a positive view of the royal family in general, 47% have a negative view, and the remainder do not know. See Scotland’s centuries old Stone of Destiny is an important traditional part of the coronation service. It was transported from Edinburgh to be set into the coronation throne on which the King will sit when he is crowned.
