King Charles would be wise to follow that same tradition.

Time will tell. But I think the real test will be William. If he's a crappy Monarch, the British might go ahead and dismantle the institution. In other words, it doesn't really matter what Charles is going to do in the meantime.

When you are the heir you can be cool, hip and edgy.

When you are the monarch suddenly you represent the country and it is time to put away childish things.

It would be extremely difficult for the King to appear at such a summit and not be seen as expressing a personal political viewpoint give his history as Prince of Wales of being involved in issues related to the environment. As he has to be extremely cautious in expressing any political views except those of His Majesty's Government, it doesn't surprise me that the Prime Minister has apparently advised him not to attend, nor does it surprise me that he has accepted her advice. That is consistent with his constitutional role as King, and I would always expect him to uphold his constitutional role which is different as King, from the role he had as Prince of Wales.

Almost has a look like it is a very rushed photo.

He probably thinks he’ll get sick watching Jo Jo the Pedo sniffing Greta the Swedish Meatball.

The main object ofbit was the portrait of a king that had reigned along time...you can see it was done to frame them all within the lights with the portrait clearly seen between them

They got exactly what they wanted

A good sign on how Charles will handle his new role.

Watch The Windsors: Series 3 | Prime Video

The British ought to recast the actual buffoons with the cast from The Windsors.
