Long Live The King

When the Queen died, many commentators predicted the country would be traumatised by the loss for a long time. Instead, it was Liz Truss that caused the trauma immediately after the Queen's passing, Charles's accession to the throne causing no fuss at all. What does it tell us about the monarchy, and its capacity to generate feverish commentary now that the "Elizabethan Age" is over? Rock & Roll Politics is live at Kings Place in London on May 15th. There's a lot going on that we need to discuss, and you can get tickets here: https://www.kingsplace.co.uk/whats-on/words/rock-n-roll-politics-8/ Don't forget to send your questions to steveric14@icloud.com!
