    I’d like to see removal of the entire line of succession. Let’s do the CEO thing and make them state what good they do for the client.

      Fairly slim: there aren’t a huge number of royals to begin with, only Andrew had a reputation for partying, only Andrew had ties to Epstein (there is enough evidence with Andrew in that any other royals with Epstein ties would be in there somewhere too), and at the end of the day it’s not their decision.

      Who gets to be in the line of succession is a matter for parliament, not the royal family.

      Line of succession

      A member of the royal family can also be removed from the line of succession to the throne by legislation, although under a convention enshrined in the preamble to the Statute of Westminster 1931 this would require the consent of every other Commonwealth Realm (independent states where the King is also head of state).

      Prince as the title. Everyone that is son/daughter of the king/queen of England have the title of prince/princess. Different to other monarchies that only the 1st on the line of succession have the title of Prince.

      Is it still possible to get him out of the line of succession by forcing him to convert to Catholicism?

    I just imagine the King getting a letter from one of the Commonwealth heads of state and wiping his ass with it, they knew about this for years and did nothing until it was too big to possibly ignore

      He’s only allowing this to happen because people started calling him a pedo protector in public and he is finally listening to his pr team to back away from the pedo, the people are turning on you.

      If people didnt harrass him, he’d still be protecting his pedo brother.

    After acknowledging that Palestinian people exist, this may be the bravest thing Albo has ever done.

      I wonder where growing up in housing commission flats in the 70s sits on that list.

    Actually no, I want Andrew to be arrested, and then become king, and force the commonwealth to decide if they want a paedophile king from prison or no king at all.
