While this Camilla of yours might at least evoke shades of Livia Drusilla - especially when it comes to ambiton and pushing the family to do better than the competition - Charles is no Octavian, to put it mildly. He's not even an Ethelred the Unready, since he instead of opposing the invasion and the emerging Caliphate embraces it.

Only two kinds of kings or queens deserve respect: the ones elected by their own people, being of said people, and the ones who take the throne by their own power.

Inheriting deserves no more respect than winning a lottery you didn't even enter consciously.

(At least the english monarchy provides circus, if not bread.)

Yes. Good comment

We have to remember Edward 1st

The hereditary principle didn’t work too well after him

Camilla sounds like a total Barbara. Badass.

It's good to hear that Queen Camilla has a backbone! A lot of the malignant duo's attacks have been aimed at her, so maybe she will finally give them the boot

It's about how Queen Camilla is the real power behind the throne, and how she's going to deal with the dingbat duo and put them in their place.

Some people just don’t understand the deliciousness of monarchical drama.

Indeed! It requires a certain love for historical theater and drama to appreciate what the royals have to offer. 😂

Also. The Monarch’s representative here ( The Governor General ) was able to get rid of Whitlam. So Monarchy can serve a practical purpose

Unfortunately he was followed by Fraser ha ha
