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 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 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.

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.

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

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

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 !!

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

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.

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

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.

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?
