By far the best Black Rod to have the role in a long while! She is menacing, stern, and yet somehow respectful and inviting. Pure business, that Sarah Clarke! Let's hope King Charles keeps her on!
In the film 'Cromwell', the men at arms that Charles I brought with him in 1642 did use a battering ram of sorts (it looked like a bench seat to me) to break open the doors!
Yes. The UK is a fair and just democracy. Its leaders are in no way the most venal, hypocritical people around, and Covid has in no way shown this. I'm glad some people haven't jumped the shark...
It's a joke... Seeing grown adults who are meant to be running the Country do shit like this is pathetic. It's so childish, just an embarrassment. Also why "God bless her Majesty"? She does fuck all
Im so glad we have traditions like this. I hope we never loose them. They make Britain unique and every country should have traditions that make them special in their own way. To people from any other countries, don't let anyone take your traditions from you.
Yes and no, in order for traditions to mean anything, they need to be rooted in something that has happened that binds all the people of that tradition. This black rod ceremony (as you know) is done in not just for the sake of doing it, but in remembrance of a event. Trying to force creating a tradition in the name of being unique does nothing, and will just erode away, and block out what could be something greater, or a more defining moment of a nation.
I love this scene. Every year, the history of how Parliament became indepent from the Monarchy is played out in a piece of theatre, so that hopefully it will never be forgotten.
Imagine working hard to hold a prestigious position like Black Rod, only to find out that the main perk is getting the door slammed in your face. 😂 (I know it's symbolical, but still)
I don't know if what I am about to say will make any sense or not, but as an American, I find your ceremonies to be very civilized indeed, and I watch them intently, not to learn about you particularly (though that is a wonderful reason in itself) but to learn about us here in the United States. You have my greatest respect.
Thank you for this verbal walk-through. I just learned about the Black Rod's role today and Dennis Skinner's quips. How fascinating. After reading John Adams and 1776 it seems like the founding fathers of America didn't keep any of these ceremonial rituals because they wanted to be as far away from the Crown as possible. I suppose it's also why we don't have titles of nobility.
My understanding is that Anti Monarchy was simply a causus Belli for Colonial landowners to avoid taxation. The majority of humble Colonial farmers were pro British.
@@neil5307 taxation was a huge part of the rebellion- dare I say the catalyst, but i'm not so sure about the "Pro British" piece. In what sense? Based on what I read it seemed to be of great importance for the First Continental Congress to form a unique identity for the United States. Some people such as John Adams still wanted titles of nobility but it was more for vanity rather than pro-monarchy or pro- Britishness.
@@rpk5216 The wealthy and powerful made the most noise, and the humble farm workers abd small farmers really had to comply with the views of the landowners. Brirain was protecting the Colonists from various enemies, so taxation was reasonable. I think the main issue is that a lot of Colonists were Arable farmers, and not growing cash crops such as tobacco and sugar, and so were less dependent on international trade, or alternatively wanted to start to dictate local cash crop prices.
@@neil5307 actually many of the colonist living in the south were pro British at the start of the war and thought things could be peaceful negotiated. Many of the representatives from the southern colonies were initially against the Declaration of Independence. The northern states is were fighting broke out and Boston was home to lots of revolutionary activity and the region of New England wasn’t known for large scale farming, it was known for maritime activities and in particular smuggling. During the English civil war the colonies weren’t deemed incredibly important so the were left to there own devices and after the war ended England tried to reinstate restrictions and that pissed a lot of people off not just the wealthy land owners. Under English rule colonist weren’t supposed to trade with countries that England didn’t like. The common economic theory on the colonies at the time was that there only purpose was to provided the mother country with ressources and a captive market to sell goods to. But after colonist got a taste of economic freedom many didn’t want to go back to how things were. So yes taxes were a big part of the revolutionary war many of the taxes were on goods nearly everyone in colonies consumed. Also the some of the loudest supporters of succeeding from England was John Adam’s and benjamins Franklin’s both of whom were not large scale land owners. John Adam’s being a lawyer and Benjamin Franklin made a lot of money running a printing press.
It may seem archaic to still have the black rod but this is tradition that evolved over centuries, no one said back then this was how it should evolve but here we are and it is only a symbol. Symbolism may seem out dated but we need them more than ever as a guiding light from where's we've come from and where we're going. It also reminds us of our past, however far removed we are from then.

I propose that the US begin a ceremony of its own at the start of every congressional session: every member of Congress shall throw a handful of Lego blocks at each other while shouting, "When you don't have enough cowbell, let them eat Legos!"

Actually, when Otto the Great became emperor, the people had to give formal consent. (That was the last time in the Holy Roman Empire, though. In 962 AD.
Goes back to this event. When Charles 1 stormed Parliament. Since then, the Monarch's representative gets the door slammed in his (or her) face. ruclips.net/video/wDsAn_u70tw/видео.html
Adam Not necessarily to show the Commons authority over the Queen, she is still in theory head of state and the ultimate authority (even if not in practice), moreso to show the separation of the Commons from the Queen as their own authority and not an extension of her will.
The queen can't enter the house of commons and the black rod is the official how goes to the house of commons as the representative of the queen and its a custom to slam the door at his/her face .. this signifies the rights of the legislature and its just a another way of saying that you don't belong to the house and so you can't enter.
I think its like that the coming of the black rod was announced by some guards of the house ( a guard even soughted that the black rod is coming when she was on her midway) and the gates are closed by the gates keeper of the house. Thus I think ,in modern days ,this has been made more into a ceremonial sort of thing. She that slams the door which,i guess , signifies that she is asking for the permission to enter the house , and with the commands of the speaker the , gatekeeper might be opening the gates. But the MPs have there own right and hence some MPs may not want to comply with the order of the Queen which the black rod conveys and hence there is a tradition of hackling. I am not an expert but I think this the most rational explanation of this..
I feel this monarchy thing is working out very positive for UK! She is trying not to disturb any government stuff thereby staying democratic - plus politicians also know that someone is above them to question.
09.00. Hey!! So that's where they went. i had air horns on my MK 4 Ford Cortina like that! I used to purposely wait at Zebra crossings to blast anyone who looked like they could have a Cardiac arrest, or possibly shit there pants! Ahh. Those were the days.
At 4min24 when Black rod is knocking on the door, the spot where she's knocking is discoloured and worn. Is that from all the times it's been knocked on like that?
There were two state openings in 2019. This one was before the election where Denis lost his seat. After the election there was another state opening as it was a new parliament.
