i read in a paper today that labour are trying to change the law where its legal for female members of the royal family to take the crown just like the male members. apparently atm males have first chance whether they have a sister whos older than them or not. but say if prince williams first born is a girl shel automatically take the throne if this law changes. labour also want it legal for royals to marry muslims and jews. what is your view on this guys?

heya yea i heard of what labour want to do the queen doesnt like the muslim bit she thinks ppl are trying to get rid of british links

Bit rich coming from a German! Now lets play guess which paper that was reported in. Could it be the "Daily Hate"?

I doubt that it is actually 'illegal' for a royal to marry a Jew or Muslim or Hindu or whatever, however as the reigning monarch is also the head of state it means that they are Supreme Governor of the Church of England. I think that if they want to hold on to their tradition they should be allowed to, after all society in this day and age bangs on about human rights and if our head of state was of a 'minority' religion you can be sure that anti family,Brit hating Labour would be quick enough to support their request to same belief marriages only.

As to succession to the throne, one of our greatest monarchs was a lady so maybe we should give them equal dibs at succeeding the throne.

And as to the Queen being German, her German line of Royalty actually comes back to British ancestory

New Labour has systemically ruined this country - foreigners have more rights than British born. They have been busily and mostly quietly, eroding our rights and traditions - House of Lords is no longer as it was, the Lord Chancellor no longer wears ceremonial robes - they would like to get rid of the monarchy - Tony always fancied himself as a President and certainly, in my opinion, acted like it.

Well said Chris. Nice to know that I'm not the only one in the country who thinks it.

I totally agree Chris and Tamar,

Hello Sophie, x

Wonder how the Ruling would have gone if Edward hadn't abdicated??

One that crept in under the wire, I think it was last week, was about Catholics , didnt hear it all as it was a one liner on the radio...basicly allowing Camilla to become queen .... not consort.?

And now the queen who's a bit short of money is buying a Jet areoplane, something for the grandsons to muck about in !!

i read it in the daily express and it was in the guardian aswell. just mainly stated that the royals didnt like the marriage to muslims or jews especially the duke he didnt like it. i duno much about it all new to me all these laws lol but i do think they want to get rid of any british tradition or whatever and mix it all up with other cultures

Would have been a nice touch if they had been permitted to marry a Catholic.

Yes Camilla is a Catholic which was the big problem when they were young.

So he was allowed to marry that poor young girl and break her heart, and every one only ever sees that she had affairs.
NOT before she realised exactly what was going on.

I remember reading some time ago that the Queen has already given her approval for the eldest child of William to be the monarch after him, whether male or female, i.e. ignoring sex when it comes to order of succession from William's children onwards.

Not heard about the idea of relaxing the religious restrictions on the monarch though.

I believe Camilla may be given the title Princess Consort, rather than Queen, if/when Charles becomes King.
This could solve a potential problem, as the general public is so against having a Queen Camilla..me included.
But then, personally, I don't think Charles should ever become King, I think he's better suited to pottering about in his greenhouse, talking to his plants. He has some rather controversial political ideas and also I don't like the way he changes laws to suit himself - marrying a Catholic (practising/lapsed/whatever) for one!! Secondly , I could not respect a King who once stood there in front of millions, making those sacred marriage vows to Diana, lying through is teeth with every single word of them.

I'll get off me soap box here or I'll go on all day!!!!!!!!

I'm with you there Karen.
I really don't care one way or the other what any of them do... but he knew when he married that young girl (19 years old) that he would continue his affair with Camilla.
Where is the integrity in that?
And as for Camilla's husband... no one ever mentions him.... now if you want to talk Dignity.... he has it in abundance!

I also agree with Chris and Tamar

My cousin in US, really envies us of our Queen.

I do not know if as a baby Camilla was baptised into the Catholic church but certainly her first marriage was carried out in one!!!

This is yet another "Smokescreen" to cover years of total incompetance by the Labour Government so they can totally Bankrupt our Country while ensuring they all get a jolly good welcome at the EU trough with all its perks and Fiddles,and their experience will be welcomed with open arms.**M**/:o(>.

The Duchess of Cornwall, in Scotland known as The Duchess of Rothesay (Camilla Rosemary; formerly Parker Bowles; née Shand, born 17 July 1947) is the second wife of Charles, Prince of Wales (who is also Duke of Cornwall and Rothesay), the heir apparent to the thrones of the United Kingdom and the other 16 Commonwealth Realms.

Before their marriage she had been his long-time lover. As the consort of the Prince of Wales she is legally HRH The Princess of Wales;although she is officially styled "Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cornwall" ("Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Rothesay" in Scotland). Although this is unconventional, it avoids a conflict with the princely title which is closely identified by the public with her husband's first wife, Diana, Princess of Wales.

Also I believe Camilla is not a Catholic.Her previous husband was the Catholic.
