      Take insult? Scotland barely got a mention if any at all and being the only other Kingdom in the UK with a larger Economy than Wales and N Ireland put together and we have a larger population than both put together. Considering Scotland played a huge part in the former Queens life and her mother as a Scottish Aristocrat. This was nothing about the U.K this was an English event. The Union Jack and Scotlands Stone of Destiny was the only thing to show that Scotland is part of This Union. I'm a staunch Unionist and never voted SNP in my life, we are stronger together but all this Coronation did was strengthen the Independence movement in Scotland just when they were losing support. Even I know ow it's all about England, the U.K is England. Next independence vote England gonna pay dearly and N Ireland will follow and probably Wales. What a blunder without Scotland it wot even be called the United Anymore. I mean you can't call it the UK if the only other Kingdom leaves. Sad actually when immigrants most of the Economic migrants wo hate the U.K got more of a place during the Coronation than Scotland the 2nd Countr of the U.K.

    References in Scottish, Welsh, and Gaelic should have been made for inclusiveness. Traveling to Scotland on the Flying Scotsman to be Crowned again would have signified a bond at least symbolically. It is another case of the Royal Family and Palace Bureaucracy being focused on their perceived interests rather than their true interests. It is a continuation of the tone deafness starting with the divorce of Diana, and followed through with the pushing out of Harry and Meghan. If the Royal Family’s destiny rested solely with the Palace Bureaucracy, you could put every titled stuffed shirt on a large ship and sink it. Enemies of the Royal Family could do no greater harm than the Palace Bureaucracy. I cannot wait to see the movie from Harry’s book SPARE!!!

      Speaking as a Scot, er no is the answer. There will be a tacit nod to the Scottish crown (far older than England's) at the opening of the Scottish Parliament in late August, but that's it.

      You must have missed the Act of Union (1707). Under that Act of Parliament, there is no "King of England"; such a position has not existed since 1707. There is only the King of Great Britain (and, these days, of Northern Ireland).
