Republic protesters drowned out by patriotic ‘He’s our King’ chanting schoolchildren

An army of flag-waving schoolchildren has proved they are more than a match for the anti-royal, disruptive protest group, Republic.

The recent tide of protest groups in the UK met its match today, April 26, in Liverpool as Republic, an anti-royal protest group, was drowned out by a group of excited schoolchildren who retaliated with chants of ‘He’s our King!’ As reported in The Daily Express.

King Charles and the Queen Consort were in Merseyside today to celebrate the twinning of Liverpool’s Central Library with the Regional Scientific Library in Odesa, Ukraine’s first public library.

As usual, a seemingly ever-present protest group were on hand to disrupt the event, this time it was the turn of Republic, an anti-monarchy organisation, armed with a megaphone and yellow banners and chants proclaiming, ‘Not My King.’

Since the death of Queen Elizabeth and the ascension of Charles to the throne, anti-monarchy movements have proliferated.

Republic regularly advertises where and when they plan to protest, with reference to today’s protest they posted, ‘we will be protesting on the arrival of Charles and Camilla at Liverpool Central Library.

‘Charles is expected to arrive shortly before 2 pm. We want to be there early to ensure we’re set up and ready to go. We will bring placards. Just bring yourself! And if you can, wear yellow!’

However, it didn’t go quite as they planned as video footage from BBC Merseyside showed  younger royal fans were there to counter the protesters with schoolchildren chanting ‘He’s our King,’ which effectively drowned out the dissenters.

According to their website, Republic are planning other events, such as a protest in Bristol tomorrow and one at Trafalgar Square on the King’s coronation day, Saturday, May 6.
