If we got rid of the Prince of Wales title and got rid of the monarchy as some have suggested, where would we stop? Would the country then get rid of all titles? What would we have then? What would happen to all the treasures; sold off and the money spent on good causes or wasted with little to show for the money? The country might well be in anarchy, with different factions fighting for power of some sort.

History and monarchs have treated a great number of people/groups unfairly/brutally but that is the past. But we have to do what is best for now.

It might well be better to stick with what we have - stability.

Nope.

Disrespectful and embarrassing.

I was going to bump this for you OP but it's not needed: the whole "this is an awful idea" - "I'm not interested" - "I don't know anything about this and it shows but I will dump something slighlty related to the topic and run" brigade are doing a great job of keeping this in active threads LOL

William and Catherine chose to live in Wales for several years until he was summoned back to prepare him for being a future King. It is a huge honour for Wales to have William and Catherine.

His behaviour was shocking, he practically rejoiced at closing the border between England and Wales! And he deliberately was taking longer than England to soften rules, even though we had lower infections and lower transmission rates, the people wanted to move at a similar time frame not 3 months behind 🤦🏻‍♀️

I was thinking more along the lines of the arbitrary decisions about what people could and couldn't buy. Like Hancock in England, he was thoroughly enjoying untrammelled power over millions.

At least we managed to set shot of Hancock.

Oh the non essential items rules were mad! I'd forgotten about them.

I was working in homeless provision and they wouldn't even sell us sleeping bags, pillows, bedding for the homeless!!! In the end we had to get our head office to write a letter stating we were exempt from this, and that items being purchased were essential for the homeless community! 🤦🏻‍♀️

The Duke of Cambridge isn't from Cambridge, the Duchess of Cornwall isn't from Cornwall
While Wales is still part of the UK, you're stuck with this
Surely you've got other things you can get annoyed about at the moment?

How about the fact that benefits won't be increased in line with inflation?

Nope. Anyway how is signing a petition going to help your cause? Why do you feel so strongly about it?

I thought the king should not have announced this so quickly without some consultation with the people of Wales. ThIngs have moved on since Charles was invested in 1969, Wales is no longer governed from London and is not not the same nation.

If most people in Wales want the title to be mothballed, I’d be in favour of doing that IF IT HAD BEEN SORTED OUT BEFORE THE QUEEN DIED.

If you feel strongly about it, why didn’t you address it in the last decade? You knew this was coming. William is POW and that won’t change now.

Can we also end Duke of Cambridge
Duke of Edinburgh
Duke of Cornwall

And basically all titles, as they were all originally about who has power over which patch of land.

You might wanna look up who, legally, owns all land in Britain, including Wales. Clue: they also own a crown.

Also, without Kate and William living here we would never have got a Waitrose on Anglesey. For that, he will always be my Prince of Wales 😂😂

@Happyface120 In view of that I'm hoping they move to Swansea.

Signed. The description on the petition explains it really well. I’m not from Wales but I agree.

The castle may need some major work before they move in 🤣🤣 unless they fancy living in a pigeon infested medieval dungeon.

Or maybe they can ask Catherine Zeta for loan of her house 🤣

Except the description on the petition is full of lies.
