Do I really care?

While reading The Independant this morning I came across a small advert. It was complaining about the fact that we didn't have any say in Charles and Camilla's wedding and it said that it would be a disaster if Camilla became Queen. Riiight. Well first of all I would like to say that it really isn't our business who Charles marries unless it is someone of a certain rank which disqualifies him for the throne (it happened before). Secondly, it won't be that bad. It seemed to be saying two things about it. Firstly that she would be our head of state. This is just wrong, Charles would be, seeing as King is senior to Queen, (sorry to any feminists but that's the way it is). Secondly they said that we should choose our head of State. Now this would be true, if the Head of State had any power. The truth is they don't. So everyone should just stop complaining.
Be Seeing You.

King only senior to queen if they are son of the previous, if the woman is daughter of the last king/queen, she is senior. I, by the way, am quite feminist hahaha

No Daniel, this was where your debate fell apart. The only reason you won was because Drake were awful . And if the King isn't the son of the previous one he isn't called the King (Prince Albert, The Duke of Edinburgh etc.)

Chris what are you talking about. You obviously dont know... i have checked. the monarchy have lots and lots of power - believe me. All i was saying... was that if the queen died then Charles would be king and be head of state rather than camilla.
