    It's a pretty key aspect of Britain's monarchy that the King (or Queen Regnant) is the head of the Church of England. To have the monarch
    decline to speak at Easter seems like a pretty serious abrogation of his
    duty. I know the pundits are making a lot of noise about this but there
    is apparently NO precedent being broken: some years, he would give an
    address at Easter and sometimes not. It was the same during his mother's reign.
