Prince Charles Intends to Continue Campaigning When He Becomes King

The Prince of Wales is determined that his campaigning and charity work will continue even after he becomes King, emphasising the importance of what he calls “sticking to your guns.

In a rare interview Prince Charles let it be known that he wants the trusts and charities he has set up – whose work covers a broad range of social and environmental concerns – to carry on when he assumes the role of Monarch.

That raises the prospect of a future King Charles III being seen as a supporter of causes, some of which may come into conflict with the views of the public or even the Government of the day – a scenario that could cause complications in Britain’s constitutional monarchy.

This clown won't rest until he destroys what is left of the British monarchy. He needs to watch the British version of the "House of Cards" series to refresh his memory of what a prime minister may do to rid him/herself of an annoying, oppositional monarch.

[yldstrk]

that POS is not becoming King

[windcliff]

Has he ever worked or earned a pound?

[bigbob]

So does Obama

[Sherman Logan]

The first monarch of his name could give him a hint.

[USFRIENDINVICTORIA]

Yes.

[Brad from Tennessee]

Part of his problems stem from him being reared by a queen.

[Tax-chick]

Unnngh.

[EDINVA]

I’ve never thought that he’d BE king. I know the Queen has designated certain roles to him but somehow I see her living long enough that the crown passes directly to Wills. We can hope!

Chas appears to be a fool of the first order, what with all that inbreeding. At least the gene pool expanded with his marriage to Diana and their 2 sons seem more, um, human?

[headstamp 2]

The monarchy will be finished when this idiot takes the throne. He’s Britain’s “John Kerry”.

[yldstrk]

oh bullshit, his problem is he is an ass

[allendale]

Take one good hard look at Charles and why the West is in decline becomes very apparent

[bgill]

Long live the Queen. Long enough to have the crown skip Chuck and pass down to William.

I got that on DVD I know what you talking about

HEY KCET Los Angeles was showing WHOLE House of card UK on Sunday night

They just remaster for blue ray recently

The Monarch takes little direct part in Government. The decisions to exercise sovereign powers are delegated from the Monarch, either by statute or by convention, to Ministers or officers of the Crown, or other public bodies, exclusive of the Monarch personally. Thus the acts of state done in the name of the Crown, such as Crown Appointments,even if personally performed by the Monarch, such as the Queen's Speech and the State Opening of Parliament, depend upon decisions made elsewhere:

Going native in Maori feathers I believe

[SevenofNine]

I think what going happen Prince Charley probably died first before the Queen give him the throne would pass on to Will and Kate

[caww]

Prince Charles has a couple nuts rolling around in his head from some of the antics and things he’s said. One unimpressive man...royalty wise...in his case what one wears doesn’t fit the man under the clothes.

[Brad from Tennessee]

“. . .reared by a queen,” comes from a Saturday Night Live skit about an embarrassing incident involving Charles and a gay valet in 2003.

[SevenofNine]

You know what they saying

Royal inbreeding anybody LOL!
