Allow me to commend Penny on her devotion to duty by the extensive physical preparation for this role. That sword didn't budge a millimeter and Penny looked like a gliding angel the whole time.

    The most important part was, she did not steal the show. No flashing smiles for the photographers, no elegant moves. She did her job ... as a job, not a performance. No man would be allowed to dress in blue and gold (except priests, of course), so there's no comparison with her predecessors on that point. I will say, she looked the part and had complete control of the situation, though neither because of or in spite of being a woman, but because of her competence, disciplin and training.

    She has a history of military training in the reserves and used the colour Teale to pay tribute to them.

    It's her position in the current Tory government, if labour had been in power during this coronation it would have been one of the MPs doing it. She's technically part of the government and cabinet but she is not a secretary of state, she's the lord of the king's privy council. The role is the link between the government, the commons and the crown. Your point of her being a Tory is ridiculous, of course she's a Tory her role is part of the government, so it's a Tory in the role. My days do you ever stop and think to check your facts before you start to type or talk? You've made yourself look utterly ridiculous and bitter, it's not a good look unless you're happy with people assuming you're a bitter silly person with no intellect. By all means actually listen to the video and it tells you what her role was...or carry on the way you are and get nowhere in life because people don't like bitter silly people who can't find out readily available facts before opening their bitter mouths. FYI I say this after being truly disappointed in Mordaunt's stance on sex based rights when it comes to gender ideology, yesterday she earned some of my respected back, despite her views she did a truly amazing job, that sword is heavy and she stood perfect posture looking powerful as hell in her outfit, she did bloody well. And for that she should be respected, even if you disagree with her politics.

    Penny Mordaunt came close to being the Prime Minister of the UK after Boris Johnson. The appointment eventually went to Liz Truss, who made the spiteful decision to demote Penny to "bury" Penny by appointing her to what she thought was an obscure ceremonial office. She didn't evidently realise the prominence of the role in Accession Council and in the Coronation. Truss was as incompetent in her political appointments as in everything else.

    I found Penny Mordaunt's role hugely significant in this crowning of a constitutional monarch. I was thinking throughout of her as the representative of the Commons, the vast swathe of ordinary citizens and voters, who are citizens first, subjects second. @conniehopkins6105 you may not know that our King reigns as a constitutional monarch, at the agreement of the ordinary people as represented by the government, who ultimately have control over the direction of the country. We allow the monarchs to reign reasonably (and beheaded Charles I who didn't), and don't allow any King or Queen to speak any political view, which only belongs to us voters. That limit on the King/Queen is what allows us to enjoy coronation spectacles.

I even had to research on who she was. Thanks to this, your video-article on her, I found out she is even the Leader of the House of Commons, and had military training! Such an idol then, for us, women- to be so accomplished, yet maintain good looks and elegance. Congratulations and more power to you, Ms. @PennyMordaunt ! Wish we could meet someday.😀
