King Charles made a slight change to the coronation wording ... yah, no not me!

King Charles changes key piece of coronation, causing mixed feelings
https://www.ctvnews.ca/world/king-ch...20that%20role.

King Charles has made a controversial change to one tradition surrounding the coronation of a new monarch. What has traditionally been called "homage of the peers" will now be "homage of the people."

Charles asks anyone watching to say: "I will pay true allegiance to your majesty and to your heirs and successors according to law. So help me God."

People have mixed emotions about the move, with some calling it tone-deaf and others welcoming the opportunity to be included.
Instead of hereditary peers swearing an oath to him when he's crowned on Saturday, he's asked the public to take that role.
