King Charles, Royals are not ‘bright’ enough to live in mansions
British monarchy is in trouble as public loses faith in the credibility of the institution
King Charles and Family are mocked over their credibility as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor pushes monarchy into ditches of trouble.
The ex- Prince has seemingly consolidated that notion that monarchy is outdated and should thus be replaced with a freer system.
Expert Rod Liddle writes for The Sun: “The latest revelations — and Andrew’s arrest — will have shifted the dial among the public towards republicanism.”
“Andrew, of course, denies all accusations. But no matter what, more people will be thinking: time to get rid of this circus, once and for all.
He added :”Can’t blame them. I’ve always sat on the fence a little bit over the monarchy. But then, I think we all do.”
“Because the truth is we believe in the monarchy only when there’s someone decent on the throne. Our support for the monarchy is not absolute. It is contingent.
“Because, let’s face it, a monarchy is in truth a bloody weird idea.
“We elevate these not especially bright people. And they are allowed to live in palaces and have millions of quid and technically rule the country.
“Not because they are anything special, but because they are descendants of some German bint called Sophie who died two centuries ago, nearly,” mocks the expert.
