Almost three quarters of people in Scotland do not care about the forthcoming coronation of the King, according to research.
The YouGov poll also found that less than half (46%) think that Britain should continue to have a monarchy in future, while 40% said it should have an elected head of state instead and 14% do not know.
The poll of 1,032 people in Scotland, carried out between April 17 and 20, found that 44% of respondents have a positive view of the royal family in general while 47% have a negative view and the remainder said they do not know.
The Princess Royal and the Prince and Princess of Wales were the most popular royals, while the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and the Duke of York were the least popular.
The survey suggests the majority of people north of the border will not be getting out the bunting for the forthcoming coronation on May 6.
Just over four in 10 (41%) Scots said they do not care at all about the event and 31% said they do not care very much, meaning 72% in total were not much bothered about the event.
Only 6% said they care a great deal, while 19% said they do “a fair amount” and the remainder do not know.
Lukas Paleckis, senior political researcher at YouGov, said: “This new polling shows that the mood in Scotland is less favourable towards the monarchy than Britain as a whole, with 46% of Scots saying Britain should continue with a monarchy vs 40% who would opt for an elected head of state.
“Our latest polling with Britons overall puts the figure who want to continue having a monarchy at 61%.
“Unsurprisingly, younger groups in Scotland are feeling especially out of touch with the monarchy, with only 20% favouring a continuation of the monarchy.
“With the King’s coronation fast approaching we may see less celebration around Scotland, as 72% of the public say they don’t really care for it.”
When questioned about the institution of the monarchy in general, 41% said they had a positive view of it while 47% had a negative view and the remainder did not know.
