0762, I'm happy to put in my tuppenceworth to this debate in reply to points raised by you.
I agree about the media frenzy, but I found it all too repetitive and quite easy to ignore when I wanted to.
I'm all for getting rid of the Royal hangers-on as well, and I gather King Charles III is too. So let's see what happens. As far as I'm aware, he is KCIII of Scotland as KCI and KCII were Kings after the Union Of The Crowns and were Kings of Scotland.
And remember this is the same Charles who spoke out on the dangers of climate change and abusing the environment 50 years ago, but clearly was silenced/ignored by governments who are obviously not afraid of the monarchy.
As for the cretinous behaviour of the protesters in Edinburgh who abused a member of the Royal family at his mother's funeral procession, words really fail me. I just hope that these protesters receive the same abuse at their mother's funeral, so they find out what it feels like. I applaud the principle of freedom of speech, but with freedom comes responsibility - sadly lacking by these protesters.
As I say, it's only worth tuppence, but still my opinion.
