Yes, I agree. So very very rude. No respect shown to the Guards what so ever. This must be how they behave in their own country. Disgusting behaviour!🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

@@Mrchirico6 my late father, a Grenadier guard, had many sayings from his rigorous service. I never knew what half of them meant. 'Kiss me goodnight sergeant major'etc etc just one example. Life was very tough back then and people respected authority. Alas no more.
I read the queen now.kings guards are more photographed than Hollywood celebs. A lot of it is very historical and ceremonial .the uniforms are the same as on old footage over 100 years ago.they have the guardsmen shop there selling guardsmen souvenirs
The Queen is dead, and some tourists are still disrespecting the guards while the recent King is in town. What a shame, felt sorry for them but they were doing their job. Whenever if its a man or a woman, the tourists should know better to them as they weren't some of these toy soldiers like what they saw in Disneyland and that's fun, but from here these were actually real guards who should not being made fun of in their non-stopping serious business to protect the King.
He must have been very young, the max age to join the Cav is 35.5 yrs. Also there's no such thing as a king's guard. They are cavalrymen mounting a duty called the king's life guard
I LOOOVE a king's guard shout nice n loud but the wot annoys me is the public think it's funny to get shouted at I mean rly!! These king's guard deserve respect nt too b laughed at like it's a joke. 😡😡🤷😒
I might be wrong but I believe the ceremonial uniforms are not publicly funded . I see nothing wrong with a guards kiosk selling memorabilia that visitors want and that will provide valuable funds for a good cause. One guardsman uniform is incredibly expensive and it’s nice to see that particular tradition carried on from the 17th century . Our soldiers look resplendent and the horses are so lovely and individual .
People are very very disrespectful to Our Guards. Our Guards are not Disney Characters These are Working Guards, Enough to put up with tourist and their clicking cameras taking the P out if them, laughing at them
Tourists have no respect for where they’re at. They have to be yelled at for being in the way. These people are protecting the King and his family. Don’t they understand that? People are just stupid.
I feel sorry for The King’s Guards who have to put up with ill-mannered tourists every time they are in public! People need to learn basic etiquette before they come to the UK, much less London.
Is pretty simple, when you're in somebody else's house you show respect. England is not know for that with his colonizing history but still, show respect
I really dont know why the guard get such a hard with tourists when they bring millions to the capital, I can only assume its personal issues they are truly disrespectful and yes I am ex military for all you one a bys harry herefords out there
Is this a real working palace or Disneyland?! The Brits know well-- tourism = big buck$. The tourists are disrespectful, indeed. And England can keep them at arm's length anytime they want. They like the $$ coming in.

@@Keithbarber Very snobbish of you to think no one outside of Britain knows anything🙄 Yes, got it, ol' chap-- England uses the £, USA tourists come with their $ (and spend with you after exchange, don't cha know); my Yankee point being that the royals know who buys into their la-de-da-- tourists from other countries. (Too bad we have to spell out the symbolism to you British--) As you may have heard said to you before: lighten up! 😄🇱🇷
Are these guards truly interchangeable with a military soldier in the army? Or is this a separate division called the guardsmen? People on here suggest they are battlectested and battle ready soldiers. I'd suggest they are a branch of service that is trained in guarding, security, horsemanship, ceremony and defense of the King vscready to roll out on a mission in Ukraine. More akin to what my British WW1 Soldier grandad called the Home guard?
Please explain ‘non-military soldier’. They alternate between ceremonial and operational. You’re talking nonsense. Sounds like you’re a septic as you spell defence incorrectly. As for comparing them to a volunteer civilian force you really haven’t a clue what you are talking about.
I’ve seen one Blues and Royals soldier in ceremonial uniform on guard duty, in combat fatigues and in civvies on various occasions so they alternate operationally it seems. I thought they did two years in the ceremonial role before more intensive tank training etc ready for possible deployment anywhere where needed ?
They are an invitation only elite of Britain's military (they recruit from other areas of Britain's military only)... while the ceremonial stuff may seem a bit much it is from a proud military tradition and it is largely unchanged for well over a hundred years (much like the uniforms). Horse Guards (the building they are guarding) used to be a major military building, but these days is a minor military barracks (still military land) so from their perspective they are just guards on duty like any other. My understanding is there was a debate in Parliament a long while back about allowing public thoroughfare through Horse Guards (to avoid the public having to use a much less direct route) and it was approved on the basis that police would be there to ensure that the public did not interfere with the duties of the military... how well this works in practice is debatable and better public signage would clearly help if people are still asking this question. Horse Guards remains the official entrance to St James's and Buckingham Palace (not the real entrance, just the official one).
@@Mithril_Antimarr they are not an invitation only elite. The 2 regiments that make up the Household Cavalry are the two most senior in the British Army, but they recruit just like any other Regiment and anybody can join them.(the majority of their intake is civilian) They perform both ceremonial and light armoured vehicle reconnaissance duties. Horse Guards is by no means a minor military building, it is the Headquarters of the London District of the British Army which includes the Headquarters of the Household Division, the HCav's HQ, the duty guard's barracks and stables, as well as the Household Cavalry's Regimental Museum are all housed in the Building.
Huge power trip for these men and women, shouting at people, marching around in a shiny uniform, holding a sword. I am not sure which is more pathetic, the pretend soldiers or the public fawning over them.

I just love when they’re shouted at
I will
@@riririreyriririrey1384 Will what

Poor guards must be sick fed up of people wandering in their way. Need more places tourists can and can't go to stay out the way.
Far too much freedom for tourists. It seriously needs to change.

Wonder how many of these people would like someone coming to their work, take pictures and be disrespectful. Not many i bet.
To get this job I guess the voice has to be first. That terrifying scream 😱 don’t mess with the kings guards
Basic training.
I doubt it's first.
To get this job ,like all members of the armed forces they go through a rigorous selection process. And the voice isnt included
@@Mrchirico6 my late father, a Grenadier guard, had many sayings from his rigorous service. I never knew what half of them meant. 'Kiss me goodnight sergeant major'etc etc just one example. Life was very tough back then and people respected authority. Alas no more.

Buckingham Palace got a lot of aggravation many years ago. They moved all the Guards behind the railings right up to Palace walls.

i never saw an accident. Its all like a play to make the day.
They should never have allowed tourists. Very little respect for the guards. The stupidity is mind-boggling.
Why don't they draw lines around the horses and archway so the public knows they cannot go beyond them.
Some people are so rude and ignorant bet they wouldn't act so stupid and disrespectful in their own country's
It would be great if one time the guards run-through one of these clowns.
people are so inconsiderate unbelievable

Just keep the gates shut and give the guards some respect
They look like toy soldiers - until they open their mouths…then they’re as scary as hell…

Same place as you.
There are a lot of thick looking tourists here,
Respect for these soldiers please!
Aggiungo un ragazzo ha fatto una cosa carina è passato e gli ha fatto un saluto militare è la guardia gli ha sorriso 😂brave guardie😅
To be fair are there any signs to say not to enter the arches?
What do you expect when you permit edestrians to just wander across the Guards' patrol areas? Guided arteas are needed.
Only in Britain could the servicemen be disrespected by the public. They'd be jailed or worse in many other countries.
Tourists !!!!!
The rudeness of people today is appalling. No parenting happening...
No one ever says sorry. 😢

Practicing yelling?
And in the meantime, policemen walk around with automatic weapons. Nothing to trifle with
prob is the public don't get that the cops are stationed there not to guard anything but just to keep the public out of the way of the military
When they turn up you can guarantee there will be trouble, they bring it with them.
I would love to go there and see everything. I guess some people think if you’re a tourist the rules don’t apply to them
