The British Monarchy is to Blame for its Problems

The latest news that drew the disgust of Britons everywhere is that Camilla Parker Bowles will become Queen, assuming she marries Prince Charles and that the Prince becomes King.

Apparently, the Royal subjects are blaming Camilla for having ruined the marriage of the Prince and Lady Diana.

Oh Please!

That marriage was doomed from the start. The foolish pride of the British Monarchy is what forced Charles to marry Diana. Charles had always wanted to be with Camilla since they were kids. Why didn't they just marry to begin with?

The funny thing is that Charles had always been something of a wuss, never wanting to make his mother angry, never wanting to rock the boat. And in those days, most people liked Charles.

But now, he's standing up for what he wants, he's standing up to his mother and doing what he wants to do. Funny, but wouldn't the commoners appreciate a King who could stand up for himself? Yet it seems that Britons are disgusted by this. After all, it was Diana who set the example for standing up to the Queen. It was Diana that fought for what she felt was right. I guess Prince Charles just can't win.

Well, I'm not a Briton, so I have no right to say who should and should not be Queen. But I would like to see them restore things back to the old days, when rivals would wage battles for the Throne. He who could weald the sword and take the King's head, won the right to rule England.

Maybe what Britons need is to dump the Windsors, and get a different family in there.

  • As a Brit, now also a US citizen, I have always felt great pride in the tradition of the monarchy. However I think that it died with George V, QE's father. Ever since, my opinion is that the whole family has been a disgrace. Let the UK become a republic!
