If your monarchy does not have enough bits of the true cross squirreled away to build a copy of the hms victory then I do not think it is legitimate.

Isn't it incredibly hard to find restaurant employees these days?

people have mainly decided that working lovely hours and having to be nice to arseholes isn’t really worth doing for minimum wage

so the hospitality sector has responded by crying all over the media rather than, for example, offering decent wages for the job

Look, regardless of how you feel about the monarchy, it would really shatter Britain's standing on the world stage if Charles was to be attacked by vampires during the coronation so this is pretty sensible*
