This was just another photo opportunity. A 'private' wreath laying with a handy photographer in tow.

You have to say these two images are pretty similar and posed for the cameras. I don't like a remembrance moment being about photo opportunities.

I think they'd have been criticised if they hadn't done anything at all either, so they probably couldn't win.

I just thought it sad that there were 2 members of the Royal Family missing - Harry and also Prince Andrew.
After so many years and for both of them to have served in action that they were unable to have laid a wreath,must have been hard for them.

I wonder if he did give "the choice he made considerable thought before hand" Namsnanny.

An awful 'all about meeee' photo IMO; is there no opportunity, no matter how sacred that that pair wont exploit?

He made the choice, in or out, he chose out.

Well he could hardly lay the wreath in person Given the distance he would have to travel but no doubt he will be criticised .......

I read he asked for a representative to lay a wreath at the Cenotaph, but courtiers refused, as he is no longer a representative of the RF.
It was said the Queen wasn't informed.

I do feel sorry for him. Even though he must have given the choice he made considerable thought beforehand.

Does anyone know if perhaps he made a symbolic 'wreath laying' on line?

Obviously thats about all he could do given Coronavirus and his new life!
