      Seems to me they are probably more intent on doing their job by scoping out the crowd for any trouble than trying to keep in synchronized step with the soldiers, which, in my opinion, is more important.
      The bands are magnificent! Nothing like a pipe & drum band/corps. Quite invigorating & most moving.

      @@Joe_Peroni There hasn't been a Queen of England or Scotland for over 300 years...
      Regardless of what army these soldiers are serving in, they are taking part in a centuries-old Scottish tradition. There are units in the Canadian army that keep these same Scottish traditions alive e.g. the Black Watch of Canada, because many Scots emigrated to Canada and took their traditions with them. You don't have to be unequivocally in favour of the union with England to appreciate the centuries-old traditions on display here, because these traditions are not only found in the British army.
      Scottish soldiers played bagpipes when fighting alongside the French (as part of the Auld Alliance against England) at the Siege of Orléans in the Hundred Years' War in the 1400s. In the 1600s, Scottish soldiers marched to the pipes in the Green Brigade fighting for the Protestant Lion of the North, Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden. Later on, Scottish Jacobite rebels played the pipes while fighting against the Protestant Succession of Great Britain and Ireland. Once the Jacobites were finally defeated, British army regiments raised from Jacobite clans fought against the French and conquered Canada for Britain. Scottish soldiers have gone to war in many armies and in many countries playing these pipes. A more recent example is your family's country of Italy, which Scottish soldiers helped liberate as part of the British army in the Second World War, playing the pipes as they did so.
      This kind of military parade is Scottish in origin and therefore takes place in any military unit with Scottish connections, including Scottish regiments in the only army that recruits in Scotland itself, the British army. For better or worse, the Scottish martial tradition is a part of our heritage as Scots, regardless of politics.
      I'm not a diehard monarchist, but the present queen has a level of respect for her even handedness as head of state that no politician would ever have, because she belongs to no party.
      As for the elitist nature of the British class system - Scotland is not much better than England in that regard. We have our own private schools and former pupils of these private schools are disproportionately influential in Scotland e.g. both Humza Yousaff, an SNP government minister and Anas Sarwar, the Scottish Labour leader went to the same Glasgow private school. Yes, that's right, Glaswegians can be elitist too, not just Edinburgers! Scotland isn't as egalitarian as I would like it to be and probably all Scottish political parties are to blame for this inequality, because many of Scotland's politicians have benefitted from it.
