According to someone on this site who actually knows Charles. Charles would fit in well here. His views are for the most part ‘conservative’, but we must remember ‘English Conservative’. There are differences. The biggest issue we would have with him is environmentalism. As far as Charles’s religious views go, again would fit in well here. Charles is personally closer to his father’s Greek Orthodoxy then Anglicanism but as head of the Anglican Church he must adhere to it by law. He also must do public PR things in support of whatever political flavor of UK government is in power even if personally distasteful. He’s a constitutional monarch not a monarch of old or a storybook one where his word is law. He’s a human being whose role is to be a symbol not a human being. I wouldn’t want the job!
According, to this FR member the view commonly held here is the ‘media view’ constructed from hearing\seeing\reading both MSMs on either side of the Atlantic. Almost totally a hostile\skeptical ‘artificial’ view.
Now should we take this FR member’s view uncritically?
No! However, he’s met him and is friends with him. Yes, he could be lying about that. IMO I don’t think so.
I wish Charles well.
Charles is tainted with scandal. As if the whole drama around Diana wasn’t enough...there is the current scandal over pay for play.
He is talking about giving away Balmoral. He is very aware of how it looks to have all these mansions while Brits are hurting. Will be interesting to see if he kicks Andrew out of the 31 bedroom mansion.
Diana was a nut case..not as bad a Meghan Markle..but her persona was loved by the public and has reached folk lore status.
I think many would rather have William but will just have to suffer through Charles while they wait.
yada yada yada
he is a globull warming bullsh*tter
so to me he will always be
King Charles the Turd
