hillsbro Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I find it quite interesting that Charles will not be attending the celebrations.Well, if his mum lives as long as his grandma he'll be pushing 80 when he gets the top job.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apelike Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I think the queen should retire and give charlie a bash at being head of state. You what! I think even Lizzie realises he is not fit for the job on account of him being barking mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelle-82 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I'm hoping she outlives Charles and it goes straight to William! I can't bear the thought of Camilla sat on the throne......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillsbro Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 ..I can't bear the thought of Camilla sat on the throne.........Well, at least we won't have a Queen Camilla - according to Wikipedia she will be "Princess Consort" despite being legally Queen..

Flanker7 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Heard on the radio today . . . ." She is the head of the church in England and believes she has a god given right to reign until she dies" It's easy for journo's to put words and thoughts into other peoples mouth's but this is very close to why we had a civil war.

JFKvsNixon Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Heard on the radio today . . . ."

That is standard thinking for head of churches though, that they're there with Gods blessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harleyman Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I'm hoping she outlives Charles and it goes straight to William! I can't bear the thought of Camilla sat on the throne......... She probably sits on the throne at least once a day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyofborg Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I'm a Republican so don't share in this. you only have to ponder the words President Blair, President Brown, President Miliband, President Cameron, President Corbyn to realise that perhaps hereditary monarchy isn't that bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFKvsNixon Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 you only have to ponder the words President Blair, President Brown, President Miliband, President Cameron, President Corbyn to realise that perhaps hereditary monarchy isn't that bad We could have a ceremonial President like Ireland or Germany that is really only just a figurehead.

glennpickard Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Queen Elizabeth ll has been the most terrific ambassador for the UK since Queen Victoria. Always taken the position and the job very seriously and a great credit to the country. Unlike so many of the political class, she managed to always remain above the quagmire that many politicians wallowed in. Yes three cheers are due for the longest serving monarch in British history !
