royal succession

Is it not fascinating the degree of interest expressed in this subject by those in the fortunate position of being able to make a choice about their head of state?
I somehow think it elicits a largely "so what?" response from the majority of subjects in the UK.

Strange for you to say that, as I was thinking the opposite, noting that the posts in this thread by those of British birth were outnumbering those of American birth nearly 3 to 1.

All I have to say in that matter is that though Charles certainly lacks charisma, I find myself often in agreement with his views, such as his dislike of ruining historic skylines by the addition of hideous modern buildings.

That would be the loyal toast, not so? ;-)

And in closing, may I say that while the Duke of Rothesay has a few blots on his character, I do think he would make a very good 21st-century monarch.
He was thinking green well before Westminster woke up to the trend.
