Sometimes, the shout from the guards wakes up the rude tourists! It can be more efficient to protect the horses and tourists! Lots of tourists don't read the notice anyway!

It's so sad that they don't shout at tourists anymore. All over I'm seeing people who grab the reins and no guard says something about it. Can't we complain somewhere about the tourists and how we rather see guards tell people to get lost?

@luckysticks I don't know exactly the difference, because I'm not British. I know the Blues and the Royals, but also they don't shout anymore. Except for one from the Blues. I hope they will start shouting again soon.

@marjolein523 . The usual Guards you see are the Lifeguards in red uniforms and Blues and Royals in dark blue uniforms , they are the two regiments of The Household Cavalry the two most senior regiments of The British Army , at the moment they are having a break . These are The Kings Troop Royal Horse Artillery usually seen at State Ceremonial occasions pulling and firing salutes with the guns . They are Gunners not Troopers , both the equivalent of Private .

The guard in this clip shouldn’t have to put up with rude and ignorant tourists who pull his horse’s reins and generally take the mickey out of him!!! Go home if you can’t respect British customs or traditions.

That's so sweet. Nothing like having a supportive big brother showing up to put a smile on her face. Hopefully it didn't ruin the moment, when seconds later some jerk walks up and grabs the reins. If these Gunners are going to have the responsibility of guarding the King, they need to have the ability to shout at obnoxious rein grabbers, just as much as the Life Guards, Blues & Royals

Horse Guards is traditionally the official entrance to Buckingham Palace St James palace the regiments have stood guard here for 300 years . This duty is ceremonial but the soldiers do duty in armed reconnaissance vehicles and go to war zones .
