Date Posted:14/11/2018 07:14:42Copy HTML HRH Prince Charles, Prince of Wales is 70 today. When he becomes King he will be, as far as I'm aware, the oldest person to succeed to the Throne in Europe, I can't think of anyone older who's done so. Outside Europe the last two Kings of Saudi Arabia were 81 and 79 upon their accession. Wilhelm I, King of Prussia was 73 when he was proclaimed German Emperor in 1871, but he'd been King of Prussia for ten years before that. You're playing chess with Fate and Fate's winning.

Re:The Prince of Wales Date Posted:14/11/2018 08:19:10Copy HTML Waste of time, in my opinion. I'd oppose him on cost alone, as he's 70 and the cost of transferring a billion items that have ER on them to CR would be outrageously expensive to every man woman and child in this country and just be catering for his own personal sense of his role in history, which, as far as I'm concerned, amounts to vanity. Listen Charley boy, you want it, you pay for it, as he's worth billions, so why charge the rest of us for it? If it was William, I see the merit in that, as he's young, has a long shelf life, is of a new, young generation and therefore covers the cost.

Re:The Prince of Wales Date Posted:14/11/2018 09:08:50Copy HTML Let me get this straight. You think Trump is the second coming and you don't believe in proper Royal accession. |

Re:The Prince of Wales Date Posted:14/11/2018 09:31:11Copy HTML I believe Trump is a vain, arrogant, narcissistic, slightly lunatic nutter at times. I also believe he is a superb business man, negotiator, entrepreneur and patriotic citizen, who believes and has confidence in his nation and people a hundred times more than any plastic democrat. I also believe he isn't a politician, which also makes me believe in what he says, so although I know he is doing a fantastic job and will turn America around from the policies of the previous islamic president and put it back to work and respected in the world once more, I reluctantly believe he should step down following his term, so as not to be sucked into the dirty, slimy, hypocritical, backstabbing, grovelling world of the professional politician, most especially the democratic kind. |

Re:The Prince of Wales Date Posted:14/11/2018 09:42:23Copy HTML Did anybody see that slice of film of the Moroccan King falling asleep a few seats up from Trump? Absolutely brilliant. Trump's looking at him with this fantastic humorous face on him, I pissed myself laughing. he's a star is Donald.

Re:The Prince of Wales Date Posted:15/11/2018 12:49:46Copy HTML He won't be doing nothing Major unless he works with the other side. Mueller is going to nail Stone and his adviser first before he nails Trump JR and Trump. His biggest fear right now and probably the reason he seems so owly is Muellers coming for him and he knows it. There is also a group of prominent Republican lawyers gunning for him. Yes I did said Republican lawyers. |

Re:The Prince of Wales Date Posted:15/11/2018 08:08:21Copy HTML There's no reason why Prince Charles should not be King. It's not "The X Factor" where the public get to chose, if that was so Prince Harry would be next in line as he's eclipsed Prince William in the popularity stakes.
