Wasn't it a minutes applause rather than a silence anyway? I agree on a personal level
As in, I don't think I'd have joined in clapping but happy for an anti royal banner to appear. Unfortunately it's only really moments of public celebration of the monarchy that it can be publicly argued against effectively?
I was expecting something particularly vulgar lyrically i guess and this example was fine, for me
