On this day in 1953, Elizabeth II was crowned Queen of the United Kingdom.
The British Monarchist League cannot ignore this fact and so in the run up to the referendum on Scottish independence we will be promoting and defending the union.
The Queen has expressed concerns in the past over the potential break up of the United Kingdom.
In the year of the Silver Jubilee(1977), Her Majesty said:
"I cannot forget that I was crowned Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Perhaps this Jubilee is a time to remind ourselves of the benefits which union has conferred, at home and in our international dealings, on the inhabitants of all parts of this United Kingdom."
Our motto is 'For Crown and Country'; we believe that a divided UK would significantly weaken the monarchy. Therefore it is the duty of the British Monarchist League to take a pro-union stance on this issue.
