The dates don’t work
The King died on February 6, 1952, but the coronation did not take place until June 2, 1953. The Queen was 25 on accession and 27 on coronation day, having had two birthdays inbetween. She chooses to celebrate jubilees in the right year but wrong month because she does not wish to celebrate her father’s death. Kirklees Council should really invite those born or married on February 6, 1952.
