King Charles gave his first Christmas Day speech as a monarch, and here is exactly what he said.
The King used his speech to sympathise with families struggling with the cost-of-living crisis and praise individuals, charities and faith groups supporting those in need.
‘In the much-loved carol O Little Town Of Bethlehem we sing of how ‘in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting light’. ‘And at this time of great anxiety and hardship, be it for those around the world facing conflict, famine or natural disaster, or for those at home finding ways to pay their bills and keep their families fed and warm, we see it in the humanity of people throughout our nations and the Commonwealth who so readily respond to the plight of others.
‘There, I went down into the Chapel of the Manger and stood in silent reverence by the Silver Star that is inlaid on the floor and marks the place of our Lord Jesus Christ’s birth. It followed his mother’s well-established template, a personal reflection on the year, touching on current issues and with a Christian framework.
