Protestors should be banned from making a noise and using loud hailers in Whitehall. The whole length of it. It is - supposedly - the centre of our government, not an extension of Speaker's Corner. It is a disgraceful and thoughtless way to behave near horses. Unfair on both the guards and the animals.

Sorry marches, protests etc should not be permitted passed the horses. It's just wrong on so many levels.

I am 87,,,and just shake my head at the World today,,nothing was perfect,,but,, children were civil, behavior was a given,,these group. Of all languages and from all nations,,just think they are special,,revolting,,no wonder problems keep growing..

Shameful actions by tourists. They tease and then laugh when horses react. The stupidity makes me angry. This is not a petting zoo. Nothing stops them.

The barriers should be further back! And photos so near these beautiful horses should be stopped!

Sometimes those horses have just had enough for the day!!! I don’t blame them!!

Well done to that trooper. One handed, people all over the place, troubled horse yet he stayed mounted, quiet and despite all the turmoil the horse didn't bolt. Perhaps a horse still relatively new to that role..........or too much oats 😄. Anyway Chapeau, young man.

I so love the entire presentation of this tradition, however, military & horses have to be protected from all the disgusting humans. Never allow them near them PERIOD. Protest should not be allowed on that street. Shameful how they act, amazing really.

It seems like the horse mounted Soldier is invisible to some daft tourists, who think they can sneak a quick photo, when instructed to get out of the way, for everyones safety. Selfish and Reckless. 🇬🇧

When the hell are they going to put a stop to this ,sounded to get a grip on this

I can't believe people just stand there filming! It endangers everyone. And they need to think of how they'd feel, crowded by people prodding at them. Horses are not inanimate objects.

Imagine having to tell idiots to get out of the way of a panicked horse. Unbelievable. 😡😡

The poor horse

So many annoying people no wonder these Beautiful Horses get fidgety. so much noise The Horses and guards are so patient

What is this? Another one of many protest in a beautiful city? London needs to do more to keep the protester’s away from the King’s Guard and the horses!

I have never thought of it before but apparently horses can hear sounds at a distance of over two and a half miles! This poor creature can probably still hear the chanting and bells😢

The tourists and locals just mill about like that? Do the guards check all packages, purses, etc...? It looks like Disneyland and it's treated that way! It's appalling and I'm an American.

The Horses are stunning and so beautiful. When their heads are erect and they are staring down the road they are magnificent.

I know the tradition, the horses outside and as guard for the king. But I hate the people who have no respect for the horses and the guard’s. They think it’s a show, read yourselves in the tradition where it came from. And for me, go on with the tradition but put a fence around the horses, so people can’t touch them. There big enough to still take pictures and not bother the horse.

They were smart. Take the spooked horse in immediately until the triggering protest passed.

The darn drummers and marchers! Why must they go by the horse guards. They do not need to!

How dare the visitors go through the guard box while it's empty!? And the very LEAST the protestors could do is respect the horses and stay silent as they draw near and pass through!! Visitors need to give at least a 10' radius around any of the guards and horses. Physical barriers shouldn't be put up because if a threat is seen, they need to act with nothing in their way. Honestly they shouldn't even allow visitors. A quick walk-by pic or something from the other side of the road is one thing. But being all up in their work space is horrendous, and they are causing distractions away from potential dangers. The guards are there for the King, not for the public!

Too loud and chaotic with the shouters and marchers. Poor horses and people not giving the horses room. When they are upset!

These horses know exactly what is going to happen next, in fact if they hadn’t any riders they would still act the same.

Endlich bekommen Wächter u Pferd einmal Luft.❤lichen Dank😮😮😮❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

These moments are so sad for the horses 😢 you have to wonder what goes through their minds when this happens..

What about animals. They also have the right to be here. But it always about humans. How many animals are tortured and killed by humans. And the horses of the kings guards. Most of them have to stand and tolerance the touching of the humans. Because that is what the humans wants. I am sorry for all the animals who had suffered by the hands of humans

The protesters should be told to be quiet around the horses.

There are so many dumb people that just walk right in the way of horses and guards. Feel sorry sorry for them😢

This ceremony is so very unfair to proud and noble horses. It just isn't right but credit to the guardsmen. These horses are wearing double bridles which means that their riders are holding and controlling a skittish and upset horse with one hand in which he is holding four reins!

Ich hab erbarmen mit diesen pferden.😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

Police men chewing gum, laughing g n standing in little clumps. Show respect for your job and the people you are supposed to be protecting.

These idiots don't seem to realise that horses, like all prey animals, can see everything going on around them except directly in front (close to the horse) and, similarly, directly behind them. Everywhere else is within their vision so creeping up to a horses side is totally ridiculous because they always know exactly where you are. I hate seeing them being distressed by inconsiderate humans, like those protesters. They don't deserve to put up with that and a lot of poor horses get injured in their duties all the time whether in the army or the mounts of despicable fox hunters, I really feel for all the animals people force their actions onto.

I know the King's Life Guards stand 1 hour shifts in the Horse boxes and are relieved by another pair of guards. Does anybody know if it's just 1 one hour shift per day that they Serve Guard Duty or if they alternate the hours on and off for a whole day?? I'm asking for a couple of reasons: if it's for one hour per day - it's BAD enough, but if these awesome Guards have to keep coming back and forth dealing with these people - the truly awesome people and the unbelievably NASTY ARSE HOLES - I don't know how they tolerate the verbal and physical abuse OVER and OVER AGAIN!!! The VILE SOB'S WHO CAN'T CONTROL THEMSELVES AND BEHAVE LIKE THEY JUST GOT RELEASED FROM A CAVEMAN COMMUNE SHOULDN'T BE ALLOWED ANY WHERE CLOSE TO THESE MILITARY SERVICE MEMBERS!! I HAVEN'T HEARD OR READ ANY ANSWERS TO WHY THERE AREN'T PHYSICAL BARRICADES INSTALLED TO KEEP PEOPLE AWAY FROM THE GUARDS AND HORSES - THE HORSE'S ESPECIALLY!! I'M PRETTY SURE THAT THE REASONS INCLUDE THE VERY HIGH PROBABILITY THAT ANYTHING CLOSER TO THE GUARD'S HORSES WHEN THEY ARE SPOOKED OR HAVE BEEN HURT AND BOLT THEY WOULD RESPOND AS THOUGH THEY'RE TRAPPED AND CAN'T OBEY THEIR FLIGHT INSTINCT TO FLEE AND COULD CHARGE THE BARRICADES TO TRY TO GET AWAY FROM THE PERCEIVED THREAT TO THEM AND BE HURT UP TO AND INCLUDING BROKEN LEGS OR WORSE!! IT'S TOO BAD SOME OF THE INFORMATION GIVEN TO TOURISTS WHEN THEY ARRIVE IN THE UK DOESN'T INCLUDE RULES OF CONDUCT NEAR AND CLOSE TO THESE GUARDS SINGLY OR WITH THEIR MOUNTS ISN'T PRESENTED IN EVERY LANGUAGE POSSIBLE BY CHOICE ON PLANES, THROUGH TUNNELS, VIA TRAIN OR BY WATER!! THEY MUST SIGNIFY THAT THEY HAVE RECEIVED, UNDERSTAND AND WILL COMPLY!! IF THEY VIOLATE THAT AGREEMENT - ARREST THEM!! CHARGE THEM A LARGE FINE AND SERVE THEM WITH A RESTRAINING ORDER!!! I'M SO SORRY AND PISSED OFF THAT SOME TOURISTS FEEL ENTITLED TO BEHAVE LIKE RABID ANIMALS TOWARDS THE KING'S LIFE GUARDS!!

I can't believe how like potted plants some people are. Horse is freaking out and people are recording and or transfixed and don't move.

What does protesting accomplish,,,, nothing

Tourists have made it so bad that the King's Guard needs guards.

They really should ban these groups from going down that street. Take your issues somewhere else

When the military/camouflage material dressed people come out & instruct tourist to move, the tourist pretty much do it quickly, but the police are so lackadaisical the tourist don’t respond very quickly. In fact tourist try to sneak extra photo opportunities in while police aren’t paying attention. The police are standing right there, yet they don’t see. “Can’t see the forest for the trees”. What a disgrace for the UK. Not a good example of their police force skills. 😔

Surely they must expose the horses to drums as part of their training? But I was surprised how long it took before they finally led him away, usually they don't wait that long.

He is skittish and remember they have the intelligence to know when they have had enough and just want back to their stable they are only on guard for 1 hour.

The area around the horses should be roped off so that tourists have no access to them. It's far too stressful for the horses.

The troopers used to keep their swords razor sharp and anyone causing trouble would have the flat of the blade laid on their shoulder as their only warning. After that they would feel the weight of the weapon and beyond that they would meet the swinging blade,without any fear of reprisals from their assailants. Most of all the troopers would use their voices first. Back off , back off from the king’s guard, then the horse would be ridden against the crowd and a verbal warning issued then the swords could be used. Every trooper that rides as escort to the Royal family was trained on how to use their weapon to deliver a killing blow and had a set of rules for engagement and what they were allowed to do. If they perceived a threat to a crowned head they were expected to do anything that they had to do to remove any threat.

I can't take it in when the horse is obviously in distress. That the tourists think it's ok to LOL at the horse & guard for that matter.😮😢

London is the second most popular tourist destination in the world. Now London is paying the price of popularity. Greed keeps security from taking the steps needed to keep tourists in check. Keep tourists behind the barriers, Touching the horses will result in a warning and possible arrest.

These protest marches shouldn't be allowed to come oast the horses making loud noises

These folks walk inside the sentry box. The floor is full of horse poop. The smell must be horrible and they could slip and fall. No respect.

10:28 the stress starts. The loud so n so's return. All the Gaurds n Military Police handled this well. They watched out for the stressed horse. (I also wonder if someone put something the Horse's sense in this box? Some Really don't like staying in there.)

I think it is cruel to force these horses to stand so long in such a stressful setting.

I love the bitey horse 😂 he like "this is my bubble, if you get in my bubble i will bite you!" Can you imagin the uproar if they used a twitch to help control and calm the horse when it starts freaking out 🤦🏽‍♀️🤣 99% of people just dont know anything about horses

I’m undecided if that horse booth needs a blessing or exorcism ? Lol

PLEASE draw FAT RED MARKS AROUND THE HORSE AND GARD AREA . And a sign - DONT WALK IN THIS AREA !!!!!!!!! All peace for the gard and horse ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Not one F was given by the public as they passed. lol

Where were these protesters when the debacle happened last year, not to mention 'pride so- called month ' , drag story time etc?

I wish they would take the horses back when the protests go by.

They need to paint 4" wide lines in a half circle coming from either side of the horse box..that way they are far enough away from the guard and horse so they cannot pat or touch the reins but can get a photograph of them. This is just so bloody ridiculous to watch these ignorant and disrespectful tourists abuse and make fun of the guards and annoy the horses day in day out..do something..

close horseguards no soldiers no horses no entry to the public , they shouldn't be used as a sideshow for the tourist trade

Que horror pessoal , por que não dão folga pra esse lindo cavalo antes de acontecer um acidente o animal não quer ficar , as pessoas irresponsáveis continuam falando alto e deixando ele mais nervoso 😢😢😢😢😢😢

Who are "they" that returned?? I watched the video but didn't see 'they' upsetting the horses . Where were they upset????????

I would put a stop to all of them ignorant people who have no respect for our heritage and out royal family and our country if they do not abide by the royal family and our country them make them all leave

They don't seem to be getting the message! The horse says he ain't gonna do it!

How long does the horse have to stand there with the guard on its back

Horse say I am out of here,to hell with this.

Should be barriers around horses, so the idiotic people can’t get close. I like they horse who spends his whole shift trying to bite people.

De eerste gekken lopen na 2 minuten weer door de box heen.😂😂😂😂

This daily circus should be curtailed. Clearly it is very stressful for the horses to be forced to stand to attention for an hour- a bad look for a national that is said to be animal livers.

They have to put with a lot from people they are so

Cleay the horse does not what to be there poor thing .

It's the Oueen's guard!!!!!

They have to put with a lot from people they are working but horse do get stressed out and freaking out l do like some who do not

It's the soldiers fault, they do nothing to arrest these people all they tell them is to get back.

The horse doesn't want to be in the box. So why forse the horse to go into the box 😢😢😢😢.

Oh he might have thrown a tantrum.

Total nightmare

赤いコートの時は頭に金の房飾り、黒いコートの時は赤い房飾り、何か伝統的な意味が有るのかなぁ〜？

WOW 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮

😢HOLAAA.!!YO EN LUGAR DEL EQUINO ,ESTARÍA EXATAMENTE IGUAL..??CON EL MOVIMIENTO DE LAS ,RISAS Y "CELULARES Y CAMARAS ,ESTORBANDO ,ES UNA TORTURA ..?

I have never seen them work so hard at keeping an obviously unhappy horse on post. It's sadistic.

Isn’t this the same horse that allegedly bit 7 tourists (more like 27!) who’s pretty skittish?

Why continue filming distressed horses?

Talk about not listening

why do the police cover ther fases

Why the h3ll don't they put up a barrier. This is just stupid.

The horse was clearly upset yet the idiot tourist still didn’t give it room as for the demonstrators yes by all means make your point but do put other people in danger by doing so

Petting zoo again🙄

why is the cop with glasses allowed to completely cover his face as an ex cop of 30 yrs experience I find this offensive and in addition I dont see any identifying feature such as a collar number.Its almost kkk or secret society behaviour

Not an hour ago more like yesterday

why are some people so dumb horses may kick or bite what is so hard to understand just read the sign

disband the stupid guard!

Los humanos son estupidos, no están posando para ellos .???ESTAN TRABAJANDO"RESPETEN..PONGAN NORMAS ??..😮QUIEN NO SE ESTRENARÍA???CON TODO RESPECTO ..PERO??????😢🤔🙌🦅🤲🕊👍

Королевство кревых зеркал 😂😂😂

I support the Sentiment of the marchers and if the horse got skittish he was calmed down quickly. If the king wasn't so protective of his brother and his latest fad, islam, there would be no need to march in Protest.

Why such dramatic titles??

Is this not a military area? Why let so many people into the courtyard, jogging gathering, limit the number therefore cutting down on the noise levels for the horses etc… take your photo and move on .

Why do the police cover their faces makes them look stupid

These comments no absolutely nothing about what's going on here. 😂😂😂😂🙄🥱
