One person was arrested on Wednesday for throwing at least three eggs at King Charles III and Queen Consort, Camilla, who was visiting the city of York, The Washington Post reported.
The detained person while throwing the eggs shouted “this country was built on the blood of slaves” while the crowd kept on booing “God Save the King”. However, Charles didn’t seem affected by the commotion, but he stepped around the eggs splattered on the pavement.
Charles and Camilla were in the northern city to unveil a statue of his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II.
As per The Washington Post, the role of Britain and the British royal family has come under repeated scrutiny in the countries where the British monarch is still head of state.(ANI)
