King Charles III is "in danger" of appeasing the mob that hates the
monarchy
King Charles III has been issued new warning by former
Brexit Party leader who claims that the monarch is "in danger" of appeasing
the mob that hates the monarchy.
Nigel Farage has claimed that
the 74-year-old runs the risk of "alienating" those who support the monarchy
by appeasing anti-monarchists as he faces new reparation calls over the
royal family's ties to the slave trade.
Nigel Farage tweeted: "King Charles must not alienate those who
support the Monarchy by pandering to a small minority that never
will."

The politician recalled to when the Firm first apologised for
its ties to the slave trade in 1840, and warned the royal family of sounding
insincere if they apologised again.
The GB News host claimed that
"history cannot be changed" as the monarch faces fresh calls to pay slavery
reparations and apologise for the past.
Farage told Sky News host Paul Murray: “And in so doing
potentially alienating those that support the Monarchy. History is history,
it cannot be changed.”
He added: "The first thing that has to
happen is an apology. An apology is being demanded ahead of potential
reparations.
“But the Royal Family have already apologised - they
did so on June 1, 1840. Prince Albert, Victoria’s husband, did it and if you
repeat an apology it means the first one wasn’t sincere, which indeed it
was.”
The politician’s comments come as there has been a renewed
call for the Firm to pay slavery reparations.
