INKOSI yaseBrithani, uCharles III, ibhekane nokugxekwa ngokuthula ezibhedeni zansuku zonke ezibonakale kusukela ekuqaleni kwesonto eledlule kulandela isigameko sokuhlasela ngommese esibulale izingane ezintathu.
Ngenkathi inkosi nonkosikazi wayo uCamilla bedlulisa amazwi enduduzo emindenini yamantombazane amathathu abulawa ngokugwazwa kwabantu abaningi ngoJulayi 29, iBuckingham Palace ayizange iphawule ngezibhelu ezibe khona.
“Kuyangimangaza ukuthi inkosi njengenhloko yezwe ayizange iphume ngamandla, njengoba kuyisikhathi esiyingozi e-United Kingdom,” kusho isazi-mlando kanye nomhlaziyi wasebukhosini u-Ed Owens.
INkosi uCharles III ibheka phezulu njengoba ifunda Inkulumo Yenkosi, njengoba iNdlovukazi uCamilla ihlezi eceleni kwayo ngesikhathi Sokuvulwa KwePhalamende Kwesifundazwe e-House of Lords, eLondon, eBrithani, ngoJulayi 17, 2024. Kodwa-ke, ngokusho kwesazi sezomthethosisekelo uCraig Prescott “ubukhosi abuphawuli ngemicimbi yezepolitiki yamanje”.
“Uma izibhelu sezidambile, ungalindela ukuthi amalungu omndeni wasebukhosini avakashele izindawo ezithintekile futhi mhlawumbe azibonele ezindaweni zamasiko ahlukahlukene,” kusho u-Prescott eposini elithi X.
“Uma inkosi ikhuluma ngalokhu, pho-ke kuthiwani ngodaba olukhulu olulandelayo, nolulandela ngemva kwalokho.” Ukuthula kukaCharles kuhambisana nomama wakhe, iNdlovukazi u-Elizabeth II ongasekho, owahlala ethule ngendlela efanayo ngesikhathi sodlame lokugcina olwazamazamisa i-England ngo-2011.
Ngokuvamile kuchazwa ngokulindelwe ukuthi amakhosi aseBrithani agweme ukuphawula nganoma yini ethathwa njengepolitiki. U-Owens uphikise uCharles, oseqale kabusha imisebenzi yomphakathi kancane kancane ngemuva kokuxilongwa umdlavuza ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka, kungenzeka ukuthi akazange asabele esidlangalaleni ngenxa yezizathu ezimbili ezibalulekile.
Ngakolunye uhlangothi, kungenzeka “ululekwe nguhulumeni wakhe ukuthi bekungeke kube ukuhlakanipha kulesi sigaba sokungenelela ngqo”. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, inkosi kungenzeka ukuthi nayo ithathe lolu daba “luvutha” kakhulu.
“Izingxabano ezinkantolo zingaholela ekuhlukaniseni izingxenye ezithile zomphakathi waseBrithani,” kusho u-Owens etshela abe-AFP. Izikhulu zisole izibhelu, ezibone ama-mosque nezindawo ezixhumene nabokufika kuhloswe ngazo, ezintweni ezikude kwesokudla kanye “nobugebengu”.
