Tyranny of the majority

Here's a question that's been on my mind lately, is one allowed to ask who is paying for all this, or will one be arrested?

PS. Standing silent and holding a sign is not a breach of the peace nor hate speech nor any kind of violent threat, however knocking the person holding the sign to the ground or threatening them with violence most certainly are! I have to ask the obvious question, are monarchists such snowflakes that they can't possibly hear or read views that counter their own without losing their shit? 

I've listened to arguments from the other side of this debate about there being a "special" case for funerals, i.e. that because a funeral engenders such strong feelings in the participants that tolerance for dissent needs to be much less because of the public order considerations. I have some sympathy with that view however I would counter with a couple of points that I think are important. Firstly, the events so far have not been a funeral and secondly the main event that protesters were carted off from was actually the proclamation of the king, i.e. a secular ritual akin to the opening of Parliament or visit of a Prime Minister, whose main purpose seemed to be to ensure allegiance from the masses, i.e. precisely the time to present a counter point of view.
