To think, "Well said Prince Charles!"

[FrancesNiadova]

I agree with the news commentators who say he shouldn't be writing to cabinet ministers, trying to influence policy. However, Putin, invading countries & handing out Russian passports, is behaving like a land-grabbing dictator.
Prince Charles is not the King, yet, so he is maximising his opportunity to say, well, what we're all thinking, basically.
I remember the controversy of the State Visit of the Chinese President. Instead of joining the formal greeting party & banquet, he booked himself to attend a much more minor event in Cornwall, to show his disgust for human rights abuses. The snub was not missed by the Chinese & the media.
Is it unreasonable to be pleased that he speaks out & a bit by the bad press he's getting for it!

Didn't Misha write, "When Russia Invaded my Country?"

I wonder who's next?

And Charles presumably knows the FBI investigated Edward VIII and Wallis for Nazi sympathies and because Wallis was a lover of Joachim von Ribbentrop and kept in close contact with him after she and the Duke of Windsor got the boot from Britain. If he wasn't aware of any of this growing up then he would surely have known it ever since Harry made the very unfortunate choice to wear SS costume to a fancy dress party and it all got dredged up.

Next to be invaded in Venezuela, by the US. Either that or there will be some form of 'regime change' there that will result in a government to the liking of the State Department.

Not only has he crossed the line of substituting personal views for those of HMQ's government, he has also substituted personal views for those of HMQ

Much the same as when he referred to the Chinese leaders as "hideous waxworks" in fact. Again, a view he's entitled to on a strictly personal basis, but hardly a suitable thing to say when he knows it will get out

For pity's sake, isn't there anyone who can rein this silly little manchild in???!!!

Correcetion: the sentence was "appalling old waxworks" rather than "hideous ..."

A timely BBC item on the place of the Monarch.
