1. That’s nice.

2. Would be nice if we didn’t have a system with kings, and paupers sacrificing as an act of charity for other paupers. But sure, isn’t the king wonderful for acknowledging this pleb.

3. And I hope he tells the king to stick his invitation up his arse.

4. I’ve seen the kid on the regional news, he seems like a nice lad who just wants to help people. It’s a shame there are not more people like him and that people lose his sense of wonder as they age.

6. Well done. It is excellent and impressive. Like they say, gracious is the King!

7. Well, good for the boy getting more recognition.

   Shame we’re spunking millions on the cornotion

8. I take it he’s completed his challenge?

   So this story is…past tents.

   Ok ok I’m going.

9. 850 people like him are being invited to the Coronation – the capacity of the Abbey is only 2,000.

10. I guess Megan should have moved into a tent in the yard /s

11. This was in fact a trial to test the tolerance and acceptance of roughing it in the UK as elites prepare to take everything we own in the next 10 years.

12. He has an opportunity to do the funniest thing possible.
